    Beef dish.
    Vivian D.

    I can say I have been here twice in 2 weeks. The food was amazingly seasoned just added a little garlic salt to my beef dish that was so tender. The veggie roll was delicious but a little greasy. And yes I am still going to order again. The barbecue chicken on a stick was good as well. It has carrot sticks and green beens inside. Can't wait to go back.

    I stopped by Rice n' Roll for the first time and got to meet the sweet lady who runs this restaurant. Right now there is only curbside pickup, but I was told that the restaurant plans to allow customers inside again within a matter of weeks. This has to be the best Filipino restaurant on the east side. It is the only restaurant on the east side I know of that offers lechon kawali. My order of lechon kawali came with a generous portion of super crispy pork belly and salad with cucumbers and tomatoes. I really enjoyed this meal. It's been a challenge finding many casual restaurants that offer good roast pork or lechon. I was also given a free bowl of lemony chicken and rice soup that was delicious. I am looking forward to trying more items on the menu and seeing the restaurant when it opens up again.

    Had a craving for Filipino food and wanted to try this. Everything taste really good. Get bubble tea with taro. Hopefully next time I can try their Halo Halo.

    Overall it's a two but the service was great. They don't have a lot of options. Not even the sausage! They microwaved our food in styrofoam, why microwaving our food anyways? Food was meh. I enjoyed their fried fish though. Super crunchy. I came here mainly though to try their halo halo since my Filipino friend said it's the best halo halo he has ever tried. And I disagree with him. The beans weren't even fully cooked. Won't come back.

    Great place for some Authentic Pinoy grubs & native delicacies. A future pit stop for lunch breaks, & is highly recommended.

    Found a Philippine treasure @ St. Clair Shores. Serving authentic Filipino Dishes to quench one's hunger for native tastes. Bicol express, sinigang, pork satay/ barbecue, tortang talong, pancit bihon, spring rolls, pork sisig( yummy)!!! Halo-halo! Hallelujah, packed with some goodness !

    I stopped in for the first time today. The woman working the counter was very friendly and sweet, she made some great suggestions about what to try! I ended up trying a combo with the BBQ pork skewer, pancit, and some little spring rolls with a sweet dipping sauce. It was all delicious! The pork was well done and the sauce tasty, the pancet was great, and the spring rolls were delicious and crunchy without being greasy. I'd definitely come back next time I'm in the area!

    I have only eaten at rice and roll three or four times I'm going to be totally honest with you I have always enjoyed my meals there but I cannot tell you what I ordered because everything is written in Filipino and you have to just kind of Pointe at the stuff on the buffet table and they will put it on your plate and then I think they just charge you according to how much you have on your plate or something I did recognize one thing Lupita's they were five for $3.50 but other than that they have like some fried rice stuff pan fried noodles stuff and some fried vermicelli stuff and then I think you get scoops of different kinds of meat on top of that and I'm not even sure. Last time I was there the noodles we're sitting out for a while and the girl with the back room for like 5 minutes with them I have a feeling she threw them in the microwave I didn't hear the Bell go off but I did hear the door of a microwave close. Oh well the foods good if you're Filipino you can go in there in order in Filipino because the people in front of me we're ordering stuff but I didn't understand what they were ordering so it's a little tricky but I always eat all the food I get there and I'm going to probably go back maybe I will brush up on my Filipino before I go back. I really think the help could do a better job explaining what the food is and how much it cost that would be a huge help

    Lechon Kawali=Pork Belly My Favorite!!!

    Extra Lechon Kawa onion, lettuce, & 3 unique sauces. li Sprinkle Seasoning, on the Side. I have no idea whats in it, but I'm definately going to find out how I can buy 5 lbs of the stuff! Please, try it w/the freshest cucumber, tomato,

    Counter Service. Light delicate balance of flavors and ingredients. Common comfort food. Menu may be rotational, so call ahead of you have a favorite. 3 COMBO may be steep for $9-ish but it serves 2. PORK BBQ - a good balance of marble meet and marination. Just right sauce. Great aroma when reheated. FRIED RICE - right mixture of ingredients. Not greasy. LONGANISA SAUSAGE - ordered from somebody somewhere. Nicely prepared. 2-pcs for the COMBO. CRAB OMELETTE - my first. Not bad. Fake Crab is used. PORK ADOBO is Tagalog style (sour/vinegar stew) with a taste similar to PAKSIW (repurposed leftover lechon by Bisayans). Pour that soup-ish/liquid over plain rice/or any rice...delicioso! PANCIT is made of rice vermicelli (my preference) instead of yellow noodles. Texture with light flavor. Truly acts as a rice substitute in a different form. DRINKS are bottled and canned. KROGER WATER is $1. SODA is $1.25. RETAIL (Brown Coffee) - skip it. Ridiculously fake instant coffee with unpronounceable ingredients. Made from Indonesia, distributed from Mandaue City (hello Cebu - featured in Foodnetwork). Leave it alone. Just a name with Vanilla. Great SERVICE. Don't hesitate to ask any questions. The Gals will gladly assist. Small VENUE is superbly clean and organized.

    Sinigang. One piece of meat and the rest Gabi.
    Nicole-Gayle M.

    I'm very disappointed. I used to come here often. However every time I come now it's a problem. I got a take out today with sinigang and only got one piece of meat. For spending $15 that's all I got. I'm never coming back. I was so pissed I didn't even eat my food. Just sad. My fiancé happens to like this restaurant and now he swears we will never come back.

    We love this place. Pancit and lumpia are my favorite. I really like the BBQ skewers also. Tried the shaved ice today and think.they use real syrup. Yumm.

    This was our first time trying Rice 'n Roll and we are so happy we did! They were so nice and welcoming that it was just like I was at my Tita's house. My boys loved it and we brought some extra food home for my husband to try. We'll be back for sure next we want our Filipino food fix.

    We have been going to Comet Burger in Royal Oak for years. We loved the new owner and he told us he…read moreopened up a spot closer to us. We haven't had the chance to stop by. Today was the day we got to finally stop by. They have seating outside and a drive thru. It is pretty cold out so we went through the drive-thru. It didn't take a super long time to order our food. They had the same food as the other location. It is a cute little spot. My husband ordered space cowboy burger and it is his favorite. I got a comet slider and it was delicious. The fries were good but to be honest I am going to admit they taste even better at the other location. The service was amazing. The lady working told us that she loves the owner. Meat is brought in fresh every day. The fries are dropped fresh every time as well. We would love to come visit again soon.

    Ayyy! Yelp will actually let me review something that's permanently closed, for the time being at…read moreleast. So very unsurprised by this closure. As everyone and their mother has already pointed out their prices were too damn high! It's one thing to pay more to go to a sit down burger joint in Royal Oak where you get to soak in that classic 50s theme all around you with extensive decor but what's the point when it's a former Checker's in St. Clair Shores with only a drive thru and a couple of outside tables with zero ambiance. You can sit and look over at the Burger King where everything would have been cheaper. Or at least you could. The food isn't that special to justify the extra expense. Went here a couple times which was one too many and the grub didn't seem nearly as good as the OG Comet Burger in Royal Oak. Me typing out this review is the very definition of beating a dead horse and I got over a hundred other things to review but I just couldn't resist.

    Stopped into Mr. Paul's for the first time since the ownership change, and everything was…read moreexcellent. Walking inside feels like stepping back in time, and the classic atmosphere really adds to the experience. The staff was incredibly friendly and welcoming from start to finish. Busy spot, but definitely worth the wait. The tableside Caesar salad is a must. It was fun to watch it being made and tasted amazing. The Special Baked Potato is another thing you should order. It is like a twice baked potato with a crispy outside and a creamy, flavorful filling. I know it is a steakhouse, but the Sautéed Chicken Piccata was absolutely delicious and I would highly recommend it. Everyone at our table loved their meals, and we finished with the crème brûlée and Oreo cake for dessert. Both were delicious, but the crème brûlée was my favorite. Looking forward to coming back!

    Total 70's vintage. Dark, bricky, loud, cramped dining experience. This place has been here…read moreforever. PROS: Great 70's vibe. 70's menu. Excellent 70's style service too. Nice bread basket. Handmade table-side Caesar salad $17 for four servings. Good French onion soup, chops and lobster tail. The sour cream for the baked potato contained fresh cut chive. Delicious. CONS: Weird parking, seating cramped like sardines. Saturday evening dining room was LOUD! Could barely converse. Food is expensive: Tomahawk steak $90+. Ribeye $55+. New York Strip $50+. Most everything was ala carte. Disappointed that the Sander's hot fudge cream puff did not contain hot fudge anywhere near the taste and quality of the old Sanders recipe. Cream puff was stale too. A strong seafood smell permeated the entire restaurant. SUMMARY: Mr. Paul's Chophouse is a REAL restaurant for those special occasions. Total East side. Food is very good but not "great". Eat here for the old school vibe. Kudo's to the owners that keep it going.
