You can't go wrong with a casual Korean spot. I mean, fried chicken and Korean hot dogs? That's a win before I even walk in. At Kimchi Box, the move everyone seems to make is the popcorn chicken smothered in their "sassy sauce." But here's the thing -- I'm not a "drown-it-in-sauce" kind of person. So I got mine on the side. Smart move. The chicken was crispy, flavorful, and honestly, pretty darn good even without the full sauce bath. And the Korean mozz dog? Yeah... that thing was pretty awesome. Crispy on the outside, stretchy cheese pull on the inside -- total comfort food moment. Nothing fancy, just pure satisfaction. I'd come back here in a heartbeat.

Popcorn Chicken (Soy Garlic)
Tommy V.

I recommend getting the popcorn chicken. I'm a big fan of Korean fried chicken, however I do like boneless wings more. The popcorn chicken is perfect for it - bite sized pieces, perfectly fried with enough crunchy skin you're looking for, with great taste from the chicken still. It's easy to eat, and is the perfect size. Whether you order in person or get carry out, it's one of my favorites in the area. The portions are very well priced for the amount of food you get. I like getting a side of rice to get with the popcorn chicken. Helps balance the flavors without it being too heavy.

Smaller storefront than their other location in Troy. I ordered takeout and the cashier was SOOO nice. She's so sweet and polite. I got the spicy rice cake and it was pretty good. Fairly spicy. But the to-go container it came in is so prone to spillage since my dish was saucy. It leaked in the bag. Overall, still delicious.

Potato dogs

I came here for a lunch stop while running errands in the area (it's located right across from Oakland Mall). It's small on the inside, and was fairly busy,but I was able walk right up to the counter and place my order. I didn't want a huge lunch, so I just opted for the potato dogs, because they come in a set of two. They were the perfect lunch for me! It's basically cheese on a stick, battered and potatoes added, and topped with sugar. Also, be sure to add the ketchup on top! It sounds like a weird combination, but it makes the dish complete. It got busier while I was eating inside, but the staff seemed to still get orders out on a timely manner. I definitely want to come back! The sassy fries, duk-bok-ki and bibimbap are next up on my to-try list!

Popcorn Chicken Box (with the Korean Sassy Sauce!)
AJ B.

I went there twice in two days, that is how much I enjoyed Kimchi Box! In a world of bland American fast food, Kimchi Box is a breath of fresh air. It is a small strip mall shop with some seating and self-serve water service. I ordered the Popcorn Chicken box with Korean Sassy sauce. The sauce was perfectly spicy, the salad had a delicious lightly creamy dressing, and the japchae noodles were a nice addition. Service was not friendly and had good recommendations. My only complaint was that the rice was a smidge bland. Add some of their excellent sauce choices to liven it up.

BBQ chicken and Avocado
Brittany L.

To start, the gentle person behind the counter was fabulous. They were very patient as we checked out the menu - which is a nice size, but not huge. The food itself. Oh man... SO delicious. I chose the chicken and avocado box. Scrumptious! Seriously! It was hot and fresh and had so much flavor. I ended up with leftovers, I also got the gyoza and that might have been why... and I ate those leftovers before the day was over. I highly recommend Kimchi box for anyone looking for some quality food with a great price and even better taste.

Jonesing for some Korean fried chicken? This is the place! Choice of sauces, all you want to drink, so good, and that thin and super crispy chicken. Wings here, meaty and tender. Went back again the same week, it was so good. Great not-too-spicy sauces for people like me with shamefully low heat tolerances. Also have those cool potato cube covered corn dog battered fried cheese sticks. So bad for you, but soooo yummy. Clean place, good counter service. Can't wait to go back and try more!

We ordered Medium polcorn chicken, kimchi chicken sandwhich and kimchi fries.

Very enjoyable. Fresh, hot and flawlessly fried and crispy. Pleasant staff, and done quickly. Do yourself a favor, this is crispy chicken, eat at the restaurant so it doesn't "de-crisp" by the tim you get it home.

Moz Dogs
Chrystal M.

My partner and I had to come to Madison Heights to pick up a laptop at Micro Center. It was later in the afternoon, so we knew we wanted to find someplace new to try. After searching Yelp for what was close by, and what looked like the most fun and unique menu (there was a tie, by the way, so we shall stop at the other place next time.) We didn't know what to expect when we got there (and there is quite little up the street) and were not sure if we were going to eat inside (so small) but we had spent over an hour driving to Micro Center from where we live that eating dinner in the car didn't seem like such a great time even though we have done it. We opted to go ahead and stay once we got inside as there was no one there. As we sat there eating our meal -- no one stayed. It was literally pick-up order all night. I am not sure why no one stayed inside to eat. The staff is super friendly and answered all of our questions after we told them it was our first time here. There were quite a few tables and despite how small the dining area is, it didn't feel stuffy. Maybe so had there been a lot of bodies in there. I will be honest, I picked this place strictly for the pics of the Moz Dogs other reviewers had posted. But there were so many other unique items that caught our attention we will have to come back and try another day. The Moz Dogs didn't disappoint. The ooey gooey cheese with what tasted a lot like elephant ear or funnel cake batter was amazing. Coated in sugar, because that is what we all need in life, right? It is a good thing we only got 2, one for each of us. You really don't need more than that. Also, try it with the ketchup. Sounds gross and I rolled my eyes at it, too. But, seriously, so glad I tried it. Sassy fries. Best name ever for a plate of cheese fries with some sassy mayo and cream sauce. It's a whole lot of flavor fireworks going off in your mouth. Trust me. You will want to try them. The spicy pork box has just the right amount of kick. I wish I would have added the side of Kimchi for the extra $1. That was the only thing I would change. I cannot speak for the Royal Bulgogi box as I didn't try any of his meal. But I have had plenty of bulgogi in life, so I know its amazing when done right. He was completely happy with his box and stated more than once it's something he'd like to have again. Perhaps we can find something a little closer to home until our next trip south. If you are thinking about giving this place a try -- just do it. The food is fun and it's always good to try something new once in a while.

And whoever mops the floors must have an irrational childhood fear of cleaning corners. Although the floors themselves are clean, each corner has a disgusting black buildup of filth. Likewise, the sinks in the bathroom. They have not been cleaned well in a very long time. Food: the beef roll pie is delicious. The marinated beef is OK but should be served cold, not room temperature. The steamed dumplings were OK too. However, the noodle dishes were oily, bland, flavorless, and just seasoned with a sweet brown sauce. Further, there is almost no meat to be found in the noodle dishes. What I had looked to be scraps. I paid three dollars extra to have the wide hand cut noodle. It was basically served raw to me. Service: this place has no concept of service. Food comes out haphazardly. First I got my entrée, then my daughter got her entree, then we got two appetizers. Sometime later, my son got his entrée, and the steamed dumplings came. Never once was an empty dish taken away, and never once was a water glass refilled. Service here is absolutely awful. Other than the beef roll pie, there isn't a single redeeming quality about this place. The food is awful, the service is terrible, all surfaces are sticky and dirty. Avoid this place at all cost.

The layout includes three bars: the main bar, the sushi bar, and the tiki bar. The crab rangoon cheese katsu sticks were as good as they sound. I was worried there wouldn't be much crab, but that wasn't the case. The lobster tail robata was easy to peel, and complemented well by its accompaniments. The pork belly robata was tender, while the tare added some sweetness. Of the two, I preferred the pork belly. I've had four of the six bao buns. The chicken had a char flavor, and the steak sauce added some welcome moisture. The filet was tender, with a bold but not overbearing garlic aioli. The pork belly was also tender, glazed with a sweet honey, and balanced by some savory pickles. The sausage had a nice snap, and the Fresno peppers gave it a bit of a kick. The filet and pork belly were my two favorites. The sushi is some of the best I've had locally. The shikotsu roll (wagyu and bone marrow) was incredibly rich and buttery. $36 may seem steep, but it's the most memorable sushi roll I've ever had. The toro (fatty tuna) to caviar was also very impressive, and had soft, melt-in-your-mouth texture. Here's how I rank the nigiri I've tried: 1. Tamago (omelette) 2. Madai (sea bream) 3. Aji (horse mackerel) 4. Shima Aji (striped jack) 5. Ikura (salmon roe) 6. Uni (sea urchin) Lastly, for dessert, I've had the key lime pie. It was remarkably fluffy and honestly one of the best slices I've had. Simply put, TigerLily blew me away. I can confidently say it's one of my favorite restaurants in the Metro Detroit area. I'll be back soon to try the brunch, noodle, and sandwich options.

I am not great with Asian seasonings so unsure which ones they use. The ham is sweet so the Benedict is a great mix of sweet, smokey, and savory. Definitely the best I've had. I love the pancakes here. There is something unique about them I can't put my finger on. The syrup is also really good. They're even good warmed up the next day. Bloody Mary is nothing special. I wish they'd do something unique like a wasabi or kimchi version. We've been here twice for just brunch. One of my favorite places. If they had a mimosa deal, it'd be perfect.

It's rare to find a spot that stays this consistent, but Inyo really does. The sushi is always incredibly fresh, beautifully presented, and packed with flavor.

The atmosphere is another reason I keep coming back. It's modern, clean, and has that perfect balance of chill and lively. Great for a casual dinner, date night, or meeting up with friends.

The lettuce wraps were mostly carrots and had little flavor, same with the soup. It all seemed like it just needed 'a little something extra' to make it pop! It was also incredibly dark inside the restaurant as well. It gave a very moody/broody vibe which might be cool for a date-night, but it makes it a tad difficult to read a menu. Our waitress was a gem though! She was quick, polite and very attentive!
