Didnt get a chance to even try their food because of how rude they are. They purposely make you wait & wont clean a table off for you. I’ve noticed its more specifically towards people of color. Patience gets you nowhere here. I like to give places 2nd chances, in this case I gave it 3 chances & walked out with no food lol. Also if you are freezing cold or extremely hot needing to stand inside the restaurant while you wait to get your vehicle a jump or waiting on ride because your vehicle broke down, they wont let you unless you buy something. Pretty sad. Me & my people of color will continue going to GJ’s where we are all loved and welcomed there.

The food is great, the staff is amazing and the atmosphere is welcoming. Thank you Menka's kitchen for 45 years of delicious eats!

Been going to Menka’s for as long as I can remember. Everything is so good! I guess you could say it’s like the tv show Cheers. Where everybody knows your name. Love the family, love the food, love it all!
They do not disappoint!

Being in this area my whole life, I'd been wanting to try this place for so many years now. The hours are limited, so it's always been needing to be the right time and place to stop in. My family and I were certainly glad we did! Food and service were excellent. And it was so refreshing to be in an atmosphere that wasn't playing any music. An establishment like that is certainly hard to find! Be aware that they are cash only. If you're local, I recommended giving this restaurant a go!

Menka's Kitchen has been serving homemade breakfast and lunch for 45 years! (And yes, they have butter in a bowl on the table).
First, they are Cash Only. (Keeping prices low by avoiding credit card fees).
Split Pea Soup - thick and creamy, not too salty. Good stuff.
Hash Browns - homemade and cooked all the way through.
Veal Cutlet - classic oval piece of breaded, ground veal. Smothered with brown gravy.
Veal Parmesan - classic oval piece of breaded, ground veal. Served with pasta and tomato sauce. Tangy with well cooked pasta.
Tossed Salad - fresh with homemade Ranch dressing.
I know one of the reviews said they didn't have butter, but there was an entire bowl of it on each table.
Service was super attentive; my coffee never got below a half cup.
All around a great experience.
Highly Recommend.

We're visiting Detroit for the first time and stumbled across Menka's Kitchen for lunch - and what a gem!
Our meal was perfectly prepared and tasted so good! The staff is genuinely welcoming and provides top-notch customer service. If I could, I would Menka's Kitchen 10 stars!
