The Most Delectable Chinese in Detroit

Jiang Nan Noodle House

★★★★☆ 4.3 (545) • $$

"I came here for lunch on a Saturday, and to my surprise, it wasn't very busy. This was my first time dining here, and I have to say, the food was delicious! I ordered the lo mein, and the noodles had an incredible texture--perfectly chewy and flavorful. I also got the scallion pancakes, which were impressively thin and packed with great flavor.Service was fast and efficient, making for an easy and enjoyable meal. Overall, great food and a smooth dining experience. I'll definitely be coming back!"

Trizest Restaurant

★★★★☆ 3.9 (490) • $$

"I've been to trizest many times, and it does not disappoint. I just found out about this place a couple months ago and I've been here already a few times. If you love spicy food, this is the place for you. The service is so kind. There are two employees that we always see when coming here, and they are always so nice and helpful. The food comes out so quick too and so fresh! The food comes out family style and the portions are excellent. We always have food to take home. The environment is quiet and never too busy when we come in. This restaurant is very different from the traditional Chinese restaurants. It has an authentic Sichuan style! My husband and I love coming here. Again, if you love spicy foods as well this is the place! The popcorn chicken is one of their popular foods and it's delicious! We haven't tried anything we didn't like yet!"

LC's Asian Kitchen

★★★★☆ 4 (441) • $

"LC's Asian Kitchen is a hidden gem! Don't let the unassuming strip mall location fool you--this place is all about amazing food and great service. Their egg drop soup is absolutely delicious, hands down the best I've had. My go-to dish is the almond boneless chicken, perfectly crispy and flavorful, and you have to try their egg rolls--they're a must-have!While I love dining in for the cozy atmosphere, it's impressive how busy they are with DoorDash and carryout orders. The staff is always friendly and welcoming, making every visit a great experience. If you're looking for top-notch Asian cuisine, LC's is the place to be!"

China Cafe

★★★★☆ 4.2 (341) • $$

"I can't believe it took me 15+ years to review this spot... but I think it goes without saying I'm a loyal customer and absolutely love this spot. I have never been disappointed! Service is great and the owners are present almost every day to build relationships with their customers!The bar is my go to spot, even if it's just for a drink while I wait for carryout! I have never had a missed item in a carryout, food is consistent, food is great, the ambiance is very nice! Classy American Chinese food! What are our go tos?Beijing wingsShrimp appetizerShort ribChicken crispy noodlesFried riceEverything is great!"

Inyo

★★★☆☆ 3.4 (502) • $$

"Came here with my wife for a day after Valentine's Day dinner. We love splurging and going out to Inyo every February. It's a tradition for us.We started with an old fashioned (me) and a Princess Martini (her.) Tonight's dinner was amazing. She had two kinds of shrimp rolls and I did the Chef's Choice option which resulted in five different really delicious rolls. It's a great deal and I could literally taste the chef's passion and creativity in each roll.It was a great date night for us!"

Rainbow Restaurant

★★★★☆ 4.1 (314) • $$

"Our first time back today, and I wasn't as impressed with the food this time! They were very fast, and I love the online ordering feature. We essentially repeated our order because it was so good last time! But, unfortunately we didn't have the same experience. Still insane portions, tasty rice, and this time the were so incredibly fast!The sweet and sour chicken was great! My husband was really impressed and loved it. I got the sesame chicken and it was a little dry this time. It didn't have the same tasty crisp texture of the first go but the flavor was still good. Once again, INSANE value. I tried the spring roll and loved it! Crab Rangoon was amazing. They're still HUGE and so tasty!The hot and sour soup was the big disappointment this time. Even just from looking at it you could tell the pepper content was high. Once tasting it the pepper (literally ground pepper) taste was so overpowering it was inedible. It wasn't spicy, just tasted like taking a bite of ground pepper. It was so disappointing since it was SO good when we got it last! Overall still very tasty, and a great value for the money!"

Fuji Japanese Buffet

★★★☆☆ 3.1 (540) • $$

"Tis the season to eat, drink and party! This was my birthday present from my children to celebrate my birthday this year. Tip: A birthday person in your party eats for FREE with proof with an ID. Fuji Japanese Buffet is located in a busy strip mall area with many businesses. Fuji is located at the northwest corner in the back of the plaza. Look for the bright red FUJI letters.There were so many options on this buffet! There are multiple stations including salad, sushi, hot entrees, seafood, soups, desserts and even hand dipped ice cream.The service was excellent! Our server was very attentive to clear plates from our table. I highly recommend this buffet that has something for every palate."

Sze Chuan Restaurant

★★★★☆ 3.8 (350) • $$

"Honestly my favorite restaurant here in canton! Come here numerous times with family and everything on the menu always tastes great! The staff is always quick and food comes out fast and to your liking. Definitely recommend the hot and sour soup, Mongolian beef and the lo mein. Always a go too for the family! Good vegetarian options too!"

New Mandarin Garden

★★★★☆ 4 (245) • $$

"I had no idea this place even existed until my dad told me about it. Since I was hungry for Chinese, he suggested we come here, since it's one of his favorites.Pulling in, the parking lots a bit of a mess. Pot holes everywhere and crumbling like no other. It could use a refresh! Walking in though the place is cute and well decorated. We were seated by the hostess near the fish tank which I loved, and our server came to our table to give us menus and such.The menu here's pretty thorough, and their prices are pretty decent. I started with Crab Rangoon which was fabulous by the way. They didn't offer any dipping sauce, but we did get these chips of some sort with sweet and sour sauce, which I used to dip the Rangoon in.My dad got the hot and sour soup, along with a beef dish. I went with the Sesame Chicken, which was a huge portion. While the chicken was good, it was kind of bland. The waitress asked me if I wanted it mild, medium or hot, and I should've gotten medium. They kind of skimped on the rice a bit especially since there was two of us. I wish they would've given us more.Even though the place is great, we barely saw our server. We ran out of water several times and had to flag her down for our bill. She was good when she was there though. Staff here's genuine and great so that's a bonus. Very friendly people, well versed just wish we had more rice!"

Ten Yen Restaurant

★★★★☆ 4.1 (196) • $

"I think I just found my favorite Chinese restaurant in the area! I ordered carryout, easy ordering over the phone. The almond boneless chicken was amazing, loved the green onion on top, huge portions and the breading was perfectly crispy. The crab rangoons were great, lots of filling and yummy! Wonton soup was really good as well, lots of dumplings and good flavor. Really enjoyed my dinner here, can't wait to go back!"

Pings

★★★★☆ 4.2 (179) • $

"ordered in person and had my order ready in 10 mins! super fast service! I ordered the pepper steak. Too much sauce and not too much meat and veggies but the FLAVOR! Fried rice was great. Would definitely come back!"

KungFu Bros Dumplings & Noodles

★★★★☆ 4.4 (159) • $$

"A great place to get a quick Chinese meal. The service is fast, it's family-owned, the restaurant is impeccably clean. Parking is easy. They have "serve it yourself" water, which I LOVE because I usually go through 2-3 cups of water with my meals, and the condiment station is a nice touch for customization.My favorites are the restaurant's namesakes - the dumplings (fried or soup dumplings) and the hot pepper oil noodles. The dumplings are super authentic, tender and not overcooked, and the noodles are fantastic with a nice amount of chew rather than being mushy like some local unnamed competitors. I like getting the cheese rangoon (NOT crab rangoon) appetizers as well.If I have to be picky in my review - I've strayed from my order and tried some other "popular" rice dish menu items like Orange Chicken and General Tsao, and my kids have tried the Sweet and Sour. None of them have really hit my palate well - they were too sweet, with the sweetness overpowering the nuance of the dish as I've had it at other restaurants. I wouldn't recommend any of the three unless the chef eases up on the sugar a bit. That just means I will stick to the hot pepper oil or Szechuan noodles, which are both perfect dishes!"

New Asian Star

★★★★☆ 4 (179) • $$

"Getting food by carry out is the new reality, so it's great to find a place with really good food. What I love about New Asian Star is that they execute the classic Chinese dishes - broccoli chicken and sesame chicken - flawlessly while also adding cool things you don't normally get from a Chinese restaurant: Pho, a hearty Vietnamese soup.The breaded chicken in the sesame chicken had a crispness and a glaze to the exterior, unlike the soggy breading at some places. I thought the fried rice was robust and flavorful, but my wife didn't love the onions in the rice.The chicken in the broccoli chicken was cooked properly and had a sauce on it that went well with white rice.The brisket pho was quite a thing to get as a carry out, since there are so many parts to it. An entire carry out container had most of it: the lean brisket, rice noodles, peppers, scallions. Another container had a massive branch of Thai basil, plus bean sprouts, and scallions. The broth was in a third, massive container. I can see why this can serve as a main course (for more than one person).One thing I also love is the massive amount of fried wontons with any soup order. The hot and sour soup is neither hot nor sour, but it's hearty.Curbside service was a little slow, but that's a testament to how good the place is. The word is out.It's worth the wait."

One Bowl Asian Cuisine

★★★★☆ 3.7 (201) • $$

"Strolling around campus and was thinking what should we eat for dinner. Yelp came to our rescue. The main pic of this place on Yelp is super misleading but we decided to give it a try! Glad we did!!The service is impeccable! Though, they were abit busy, our server was super patient and highly accommodating to our dietary needs. Since we are on limit diet, food has to be bland but the portion sizes are super shareable. My husband I shared two dishes and we were able to take some leftovers.We had chicken pan friend noodles and korean chicken bbq.Both are delicious! We'll definitely be back again to try other items are on the menu. Thumbs up"

Thai Basil

★★★☆☆ 3.3 (248) • $$

"Tried food here twice, once through doordash. Food is "edible", but very bland and not cooked properly. Very unimpressed, suprised it has such high ratings."

Young's Chinese Food

★★★★☆ 3.5 (214) • $

"Tried this place out on a whim as they were nearby. I had the tofu fried rice and asked for no egg and they met my request easily. I also ordered the red bean paste Chinese donut balls and they were amazing! Not something you'll see everywhere either. Unfortunately I only got to eat one of the 4 as my dog is mischievous ;( Food was well packaged in a stapled shut styrofoam container, with two soy sauce packets and a fortune cookie.It's carry out only, but the small space is well kept and welcoming. I didn't interact much with the staff but the gentleman who handed me my order was pleasant! Would grab again should I find myself in the area... and guard my donuts better when I get home."

May's Bangkok Express

★★★★☆ 4 (137) • $

"Always amazing Kang Kalee was perfect Just take note that it's paper plates and plastic cutlery I think they do it to keep prices down but I'm sure some will not like it But food is always fantastic My favorite Thai in Ferndale"

China Chef

★★★★☆ 4.2 (124) • $$

"No dine-in. Bummer. Will come back when then they accept dining in then. Not feeling like carry out tonight though. It's raining outside and finding a place to eat in is harder than I thought it would be."

Empress Gardens

★★★★☆ 3.7 (159) • $$

"Empress Gardens, oh how I love you!! This place is fantastic! Specializing in Cantonese/Szechuan cuisine, they have been around for over 50 years! My family has enjoyed this restaurant for over 40 years and it never disappoints. I have tried almost everything on the menu and it's all delicious. They cook all the proteins to perfection: pork, beef, shrimp, chicken, etc...I love the Singapore Noodles, which has shrimp and chicken in angel hair pasta and curry. Beef with Pea Pods in another favorite dish. The beef is very tender and the sauce is delicious. Their fried rice dishes are a delight. I like the Yong Chow fried rice because it has chicken, ham and shrimp in it. I always get an egg roll--crispy of the outside and yummy on the inside.Vegetarian options too. They also offer dinner and lunch specials. Very friendly service.They have a dining room but it's currently closed due to Covid. Carry out only. I'm so glad they have remained open, continuing to provide excellent service and food during the pandemic. Easy pick up window and customers are requested to wear masks. All of the employees wear masks.Located in the Harvard Row strip mall with plenty of parking."

Golden Chopsticks

★★★★☆ 3.5 (172) • $$

"We called right before they closed and they were kind enough to still make a carry out order! We got the chicken pad Thai and beef lo mein as our entrees. We were shocked by how large the portions are (woohoo leftovers)! And the food was delicious. We also got the cream cheese wontons and they gave us so much dipping sauce which we appreciated. Definitely a great experience and we will be back!!"

Cafe Sushi

★★★★☆ 3.5 (170) • $$

"I'm about to drop a truth bomb that just might break Yelp. Brace for impact: My first experience at Cafe Sushi was better than my first experience at Noble Fish. Periot. For starters, they were open when I needed them to be - no weird or random closures. Crooks and Maple, next to T-mobile. A very cute little scene (dining room currently closed), but I would hardly consider this a store front. Yes, the sushi counter/case is literally RIGHT in your face when you walk in - who doesn't want this?! They have no choice BUT to keep it clean! Everything was clean and fresh and right there to see. The lady running the place was polite and professional, no complaints. She said the order would be ready in 20 minutes, it was ready in 20 minutes. She greeted her regulars on the phone by name and even remembered some of their orders. The only disappointment was not being able to sit and experience the coziness and inviting feeling of the dining room, to no fault of theirs! I look forward to a day when places like this can fully re-open. And now, the food. 5 stars for freshness and quality. Not one SINGLE funky piece of fish. No weird strings of hard-to-chew fat in the salmon, you know what I'm talking about. I won't even try to go into detail. Just observe this fine work of art. This is what 20 minutes and $61.00 for a carry-out at Cafe Sushi gets you (miso soup not pictured). Now tell me this isn't worth it. I'll wait."

Carrie Lee's of Orion

★★★★☆ 3.5 (164) • $$

"Our local go to. Always great!. The Thai (in my opinion!) is not good but the Chinese is all delicious. General Tso, sesame chicken, orange chicken, buddhas feast, hot and sour soup, wonton soup. All great!"

Wing Wah Chinese Restaurant

★★★★☆ 3.7 (134) • $

"After moving to this area several years ago, this is my go to spot for Chinese take out.They've been closed for inside dining since the world shut down, but that's fine as we usually just do take away anyway... The inside is a bit cluttered though as the dining area is used as storage now and they just threw up a bunch of plastic to separate the lobby from the rest of the place. Could be tidier, but it's not dirty...Service is typical for a family owned Chinese-American take out spot; nice, but they make you feel very rushed to do everything. Get in. Get out.The food however is above average, and I've tried just about every Chinese spot in the area.Admittedly, most of these places have food that looks the same, but some is bland, some isn't spicy, some give small portions, but Wing Wah has food that actually tastes good, if you order with spice, you will feel it and the portion sizes are huge!I've not tried anything off of the Chinese menu, and I know the American menu is for "us", but it really is the best spot of its kind in the area."

Far East Chinese and Thai Food

★★★☆☆ 3.2 (175) • $

"If your looking for a spectacular meal for a very good price, well look no further! Back when the pandemic started we decided to give this place a try. We were absolutely amazed at how good and fresh the food is!! Their white gravy is basically a garlic sauce (a.k.a gravy). It is literally one the best gravies I have ever tasted! It's soooo good I could literally drink it !! We have ordered here at least 70 times since we first started going here. It is exceptionally clean and the staff is all very nice. We have gave this place so much business that all we have to say on the phone is our name and they know our order by heart . They are always sanitizing their hands, the tables and the employees wear masks like anyone should be handling food! I believe she is the owner, jean, is by far the sweetest. She is always so kind, friendly and smiling !!! Give this place a try if you are obsessed with Chinese food like us! As a matter of fact we got dinner here tonight, that's what made me realize I never reviewed them! If I could give then more than 5 stars I would!!!"

China Jade Restaurant

★★★★☆ 3.6 (138) • $

"AMAZING!I DoorDashed my meal and was impressed. Egg rolls are outstanding, very generous portions, great fried rice and I was thrilled with the orange chicken. Also very reasonable priced.When craving Chinese food, this is my new go to spot 100%!"

Bao Space

★★★★★ 4.6 (84)

"Stellar food with a few really bright spots. We got almost one of everything, the beef and onion, chicken and mushroom and Berkshire pork were highlights, 5/5.The Shrimp Triple Delight tasted like Shumai. 4/5 The pickled cabbage and pork was WEIRD but surprisingly tasty. Very savory, 4/5, I wish they had been sweeter like the other bao. The pork bao sandwich was okay, I expected the pork to be more flavored. 3/5.The cold sesame noodles were intense! So much flavor! 5/5The dumplings were only okay. Comparatively, they could hold a candle to the bao. 3/5The egg roll were also a little disappointing but only because everything else was so incredible. 3/5"

Yummy House

★★★★☆ 3.5 (144) • $$

"Yummy House has been my go to Chinese food place for years!! I miss the days where you could sit and eat inside Pre-Covid. Now, they are a great takeout place with fast and reliable service. My favorites are the Wonton Soup, House Special noodles, and their Shrimp Tempura sushi rolls. Just got some tonight and it was so good. Prices have relatively stayed the same as well. I absolutely recommend if you live in the area!"

Ping On Restaurant

★★★★☆ 3.7 (127) • $$

"3 1/2 stars. Sweet and sour chicken a four star, wasn't gummy like most places. The chicken was white meat , the carrot and green peppers were crunchy not soggy like most. The pineapple juice was canned. The roll of as soft and rather tasty. The egg roll was average. The egg drop soup was little better than I've had. I felt a little rushed to order and to eat. Will try again but maybe carry out."

Golden City Restaurant

★★★★☆ 3.9 (113) • $

"Open until 10PM tonight, it's Christmas Day. It's our family tradition to get Chinese food on this day. Open only for carry out only. Must be super busy tonight on Christmas Day? After checking their hours earlier today. I called to put in our food order and I repeated either get a busy line or they don't answer the line and let it ring continuously. Best bet is to go there and put in an order and driving there. Gave up calling in our offer after several attempts.We just wanted our usual Christmas Day Chinese food, some general tso and almond chicken, basic Chinese American food mostly."

Hunan Town

★★★★☆ 4.2 (92)

"Food was awesome, service was fast! My favorite are the vegetable spring rolls! They are always on point!"

Lei Ting

★★★★☆ 3.5 (131) • $$

"Had to wait a bit as seems there was only one person working. Food was good (mine). Hubby said his chicken was too salty. Left overs were great the next day!"

888 Sushi

★★★★☆ 3.7 (117) • $$

"Try to support smaller business - i believe this will be my 3rd time coming. There's only 1 person working (as cashier/waitress) but actually she's very attentive towards everyone coming in.So please note - if you're looking for someone to stand with you a long time while you're thinking of what to get then this isn't your place. Prices are a little over but food is really good - once again this isn't a large place. Never ate inside; order then leave and i was never missing any items. She does give you recommendation but make sure to look at the prices.It this place fancy - not really; gives off more dive bar vibe which isn't bad. Will i continue to support this place... YES! Oh - they have a drive through. Lol! i think its more for pickup order then order at the window type.Happy Eating!!!"

Gim Ling Restaurant

★★★☆☆ 3.1 (159) • $$

"Delicious Chinese carry out food . Everything is so good . Love the wonton soup. The egg rolls delicious"

Golden House

★★★★☆ 3.5 (122) • $

"I grew up eating Chinese Food from a place in Madison Heights called Golden Wheel. Finally, a place that almost matches it! When I say almost, it's the closest I've found to it any where including Oakland and Livingston counties. It's about 85% similar.I was so happy to find out they have bean sprouts eggs rolls! You have no idea! The egg rolls were filled with bean sprouts, chicken, and whatever else they put in it. I actually would have liked less chicken and more sprouts! They were good though. Nice and crispy and not drippy with grease.The almond chicken was on point. Again, fried to perfection without being overly greasy. The brown sauce was good. I would have loved some mushroom pieces in it. The fried rice was ok. It was a pork fried rice. The flavor was good but it was a little dry. That was the only part of my meal that I really had a "complaint" about.My meal was $8 amd change which I thought was very reasonable. That was with the extra egg roll I ordered. Other places I've been to charge a little more, but have two chicken breasts, this meal came with one. I'm not complaining though. It's a huge breast and this meal could easily feed two normal eating humans.Next time I'm going to try out their chop suey and see how that tastes."
