    Chia banana boost
    Zee Z.

    I love Tropicals smoothies but I ordered 2 Chia Banana Boost smoothies with peanut butter and no sugar and was disappointed. They tasted like water, ice and cinnamon. I don't even think dates were included in the smoothie like they're supposed to be. This smoothie used to be amazing when it first came out.

    I have been here a few times and I love it more and more every time. They have a large selection to chose from and you can pretty much customize your drink to your liking along along with what every vitamins you want such as b-12 etc.

    Fish tacos... yummy!

I can't believe the place is still here after all of these years. There are 2 types of subs here: Italian, and "Other Subs", so you know that this shop sprang from the vibrant Italian community that once populated Detroit. The Italian Subs at Gonella's are ordered according to how many layers it builds up (which I think is a unique concept). These layered Gonella Italian Subs are layered with a variety of Italian meats (Hard Salami, Salami Cotto, Mortadella, Smoked Ham and Capicola), provolone cheese, lettuce, tomatoes, onions & Gonella's homemade dressing. Soft or hard roll. Extras: Peppers (+.50) Cheese (+.50) - (Turkey is reserved for the "Other Subs). 6 Layers Meat, 1 Layer Cheese --- $8 8 Layers Meat, 2 Layer Cheese --- $9 12 Layers Meat, 2 Layer Cheese --- $12 14 Layers Meat, 3 Layer Cheese --- $13 18 Layers Meat, 3 Layer Cheese --- $14 The subs are heavy and delicious. The Service is ultra friendly. And the atmosphere feels like and Italian Deli-Market. I recommend it.

Soft sub buns, tons of stacks of meat, lettuce and tomato or not. No one goes hungry after a sub here. Some deli spots tend to skimp on the protein, but not this place. My team members favorite is the Italian, 6 stacks. I usually will go for a turkey or chicken stack. They offer up to 18 stacks, haven't tried that yet.

Service was prompt and friendly. It's tight inside, this is not the place to come with a big group- but a few friends or your family? Absolutely! Perfect. 4 stars because I just feel like the Reuben could have used a bit more flavor somehow. It was a little dry today. The bread was good, the meat was lean and thinly sliced, but I think we needed more punch from the sauerkraut and dressing. Still, will come back many times for years to come! Happy to have this in the area.

Their sandwiches are crazy-expensive, especially for the quality of the turkey. It was the slimy, smooth kind, not the more dry, you-can-see-the-grain-and-taste-the-quality kind. I got turkey and cheddar and it was $15, plus adding a drink and chips was $3 more. Hubband got the turkey and ham sandwich and said the ham was excellent but had the same gripe about the low quality turkey as me. Are they big, yes? Would I rather have less meat but it be much higher quality for the same price? Also yes. Decor hasn't changed in the almost 15 years since I visited. It's clean enough but still incredibly over-crowded with too many tables and chairs. Service was friendly. Honestly, this is just so underwhelming that I'm incredibly surprised that people are excited to drop $15 on a mediocre sandwich. I'm missing something (it must be nostalgia because I didn't grow up here.)

    Been wanting to try this place out for a while…read more Overheard this place will be closed for 4 weeks or so starting next week. Grabbed some lunch for my team: Chicken bacon ranch no lettuce or tomato, a large Lebanese salad (no pita), Turkey Reuben sandwich, Chicken melt, Bronx and a can of Mountain Dew and one can of Coke. Oh my. Their Chicken melt menu that someone posted on here changed from what someone else had posted a while back. Their current chicken melt is essentially a chicken Philly. It wasn't what my team member wanted, had to give it to someone else, since it had mushrooms in it. The Lebanese salad was good, the large is a good size. Loaded with tomatoes and cukes. Ended up with bits of pita at the bottom of my salad, had to pick them out. :/ The chicken bacon ranch was nicely packed with meat in a sub bun. The Bronx was good as well. The turkey Rueben was okay. Light on the kraut and sauce. The turkey meat was deli slices though. The bread was maybe separately toasted. It was pan or cook top cooked. The rye was a bit too hard as I tried to get a bite in. I ended up having to gut it and eat the inside goods separately. Oven roasted turkey would have been fantastic, more kraut or add slaw too. Salad was good and fresh. The sandwiches look picture worthy.

Dining area was clean and loved their artwork. I had the Hot Chicken Wrap with their choice of tortilla (Tomato Basil). The flavor was pretty good. Their chicken is in a sauce rather than fried and dipped in a flavored batter. It was a bit messy but a pretty decent tasting wrap.

You can also tell based off their website their pictures are real and the food that sits before you looks exactly like the website. We had ordered fries but the owner suggested we try it all (mac n cheese bites, moz sticks) no extra cost to get a feel for more of his menu. i am unsure if he makes his wing sauces from scratch but wow are they delicious!? i am not a honey mustard girl but his is the best i've had, i kept dipping my fries in that! Mac n chz bites were ok, moz sticks were good, but the french fries were amazing. crispy! My boyfriend got a burger, which was huge and very tasty, myself i got a chicken bacon wrap which was far from disappointing. so many toppings, grilled crispy on the outside with great flavors. we left here beyond full. what i can appreciate as well, they have pepsi fountain products but know how some people prefer coke; so they sell sprite and coke cans if pepsi isn't your thing; which is very cool and shows awareness he wants you to enjoy what you prefer with the meals they offer. i did not have any room for a milkshake but those looks excellent of course. i don't live close to this place but next time i crave a wrap i will be stopping by again. Thanks for the hospitality and great food!

I went with the Crispy Cancun sandwich (fried chicken, chipotle aioli, pickles and roasted corn topped with cilantro on a challah bun) and the garlic parm fries. Everything was really good. The fries were doused in a lot of sauce and even a bit of garlic butter but miraculously they didn't get soggy. The sandwich was juicy and crispy and the bun and toppings went with it all perfectly. I went with the mild flavor as I can't do much spice these days and it was perfectly seasoned. I also went with one of their slushes, the apricot mango, and I LOVED it. I'd come back for that alone! Price is a bit on the higher side for fast casual, it was around $30 for all of it, but it was delicious and prices are going up everywhere these days so I get it and don't knock them for it. But it's worth mentioning if you're reading this and on a bit of a budget. That said, they do have some combos and items that could make it much more cost effective. And coming with friends will make it all easily splittable as the portions are generous.

A couple of my team members and I stopped by to grab an ultimate chicken wrap, crispy chicken and the turkey Cubano with seasoned fries a while ago. Their wrap and sandwiches all have an interesting and unique twist. Quite intriguing for sure. Next time I do want to try out their grilled cheese sandwiches. The corn with butter is good. The other loaded is over the top for me.
