44 Best Chinese Restaurants near Farmington

“The sweet and sour chicken is not what it used to be. The sauce was vinegary. There were no green peppers or pineapple. The plum sauce for the egg roll was the same.“

“I gave this place a shot for 2 reasons: 1) they made the effort to stick a carryout menu in the front door of my house; and 2) Rainbow's phone was an endless busy signal. After trying the food (lo mein, egg foo young, general tso's chicken, and Szechuan Shrimp), I'm very happy I tried this place. I think it just might be the best tasting Chinese takeout I've had in the area. I'll definitely be going back and I encourage anyone reading this to give it a try.“

“I’m not a huge fan of Chinese food...it is either blah or just ok to me. There’s never been a restaurant that made me think it was great, mostly because I prefer other ethnic food much more. That being said, even with my bias, this place is really good! The portions are HUGE and at a fair price, and the egg rolls are perfectly crisp on the outside and flavorful and moist on the inside. What makes it 5 stars? The staff has a sense of urgency...everyone is bustling around in there, but they are really friendly and you genuinely feel that they are happy their restaurant is so full and busy. I got the sense that they really wanted to please people. Even on a Friday night when it was very busy, we barely waited 10 minutes to get seated. Our food came out very fast and our waitress was super nice. It was also noticeably very clean in there. Nice updated decor and fresh clean tables and booths.“

“First time trying Ah-Ha and was very pleasantly surprised. The crab & shrimp boil was delicious but the cajun seasoning could have been spicier. I was thrilled to find marinated pork belly as the pork in my noodles (pork and vegetable option). This was a "need a towel, not a napkin" kind of meal - messy and great! We will definitely be back.“

“nothing horrible service!!!!“

“I like many of you, like using the review score when making purchase decisions. I never just look at the score. I look for the number of reviews and I try to find helpful reviews to give me more incite into what I may be getting into. My wife works in a business where the reviews really matter for bringing in new customers. She often talks about the long-time customers who keep returning but have never left a review. Those are really the voices that should matter more to people who want an honest review of the company they are looking into. Unfortunately, even though I like looking at reviews, I seldom leave one unless I'm very satisfied with the company or really disappointed. In both cases, I leave my emotions aside and tell things as I experience them. This means that if everything wasn't perfect, I don't ding them for minor stuff. I give people the benefit of the doubt because we all have those days when we aren't at our best. When I read bad reviews about restaurants that I frequent often, I wonder about the person leaving the review. I feel that they are either competitors with malicious intent, someone who didn't try to listen to resolve whatever issues they perceived to be happening, or simply someone who's looking for a reason and is too hard to please in the first place. So with all that out of the way, let me get to the Lim's Star review. I love Chinese food and it's one of the first things I looked for locally when I bought my house 10 years ago. There are several in what I would consider my drivable area. Lim's Star is in my top 5 or higher depending on what dish I'm looking for. 10 years means I've been coming there since before the current owner. Do I miss the dinner rolls? Not really, since I get better quality food and personalization of meals on request. The new owner knows us on sight and remembers what we like to order. He even allows us to modify the ingredients to our liking. He is very friendly and will engage in small talk to get to know his customers better. We eat at or buy takeout from Lim's Star at least once a month, sometimes more. Has everything always been perfect? No, but I really can't recall the last time I was dissatisfied with my order or service. Based on my long review, I'm hoping you can tell I have had many enjoyable meals from and experiences with Lim's Star. Seriously! If you are on the fence or willing to try something new in your area, start with a dish you know to compare. I doubt you will be disappointed in your comparison. Mark J.“

“Sat at the bar and Had the pan fried pork dumplings and a couple beers. they were amazing. Bartender was on point . Great chill atmosphere and great service.Great place to eat and have some drinks . Highly recommend. Would be a great date night or family dinner.“

“Amazing, some of the best in Metro Detroit, I shall return from Atlanta“

“The food was excellent. The service was even better. Very friendly people that really care. I had the best beef. It was so tender and tasty. The duck was delicious. Try their noodles.“

“We just couldn't be happier. All of it is so nice, we highly recommend it to you to try this. The broccoli and beef is to live for, the egg foo young is perfect and you can't go wrong with the sweet and sour chicken! The wonton soup is the best in the downriver area, even though this place is not part of that exchange. Our waitress is so sweet and has kept up with everyone. This building/atmosphere is clean and friendly and just beautiful. Tjere is plenty of room for an intimate meal just for two or a large gathering. We will be most happy to make the 30 minute drove back again!“

“My husband, daughter and I stopped in for the first time tonight and the food, staff, and atmosphere was amazing. Even my picky 8 year old loved it and tried everything! We will be back very soon! This is our new favorite spot👍“

“There must be a different Royal Wall than we went to for dinner tonight. The place was DIRTY and didn't look like it had been cleaned or the floors swept at all this year. The prices were a tad high for the quantity. The quality was just okay, but I would NEVER go there again. Beware of these reviews. They're probably from the workers there...or the owners.“

“Top notch Food, very authentic Chinese food. The staff is the best, food service is fast and delicious. 3 dining rooms and can host larger gatherings. The bar service is well stocked Chinese and American beverages. Atmosphere is relaxing and not loud when busy. This restaurant design is relaxing.
Thx for a wonderful time and mouth-watering dinner.“

“Best Chinese food in metro-Detroit, hands down! Nothing frozen, all fresh..they hand bread the chicken and it is fried to absolute golden brown perfection! The general Tao’s sauce is the best I’ve ever had. Egg rolls are light and crisp. Happy you is amazing consistent, I’ve been a customer for 10+ years and I’ve never been disappointed. They are also extremely friendly, portions are big and the prices are very reasonable! A+++“

“We loved the food from here! I have to mention this is a take-out only restaurant so do not expect fancy tables.
Yet, staff is very friendly, they even gave us some free fortune cookies.
My wife also loved the food, and even my picky eater 5yo loved the rice with shrimp.“

“Very impressed with the value of the food, the taste, and their covid precautions! Go here for a safe and delicious meal!“

“One of my favorite Chinese restaurants in the area. Quick for pick up meals and friendly staff. Usually the chicken and rice are perfectly cooked, moist, and delicious. I've tried a few other dishes that have all been good too. Would definitely recommend.“

“Best Chinese Restaurant. They are so friendly, and actually know my food order! They are amazing! Great food as well!“

“Won’t get anything like this in the United States. Authentic and delicious. Jeff has great personality and makes the experience all the better. Trust him when placing your order ahead of time. He will not steer you wrong. Will always come back!“

“Almond chicken with awesome a lot of food my husband and my friend had a lot of food. Everything was great.“

“I’ve been here a few times as it’s consistently tasty each time. While the menu focuses on noodle variations it offers other tasty treats. Watching the noodles crafted by hand is quite entertaining. It’s made in a similar way that pizza is made, instead of spinning dough into a saucer, here they perform fancy jump rope techniques into thin tasty noodles cooked in seconds. Adorned with various proteins, veggies, & spice levels there’s bound to be something you like. I find these flavors to border the authentic side vs. Panda express. Aside from the great eats I like the fact that there’s a ev charger in the parking lot (not free though).“

“Ive ate here for years i love their food ive seen their boys grow up i will always eat here“

“I just picked up a carryout. Oh my!! My husband gave his pork chop suey a 10/10. He actually said it was the best pork chop suey he’s ever had from a restaurant. I have to say my shrimp with sizzling rice was an 11/10. Superb. We are both pretty discerning about food. And to have us both pleased, it was great! I can say I’m not that much of a fan of Chinese food, preferring Vietnamese, but this was such a pleasant surprise. I will become a “regular”.“

“Food tasted great. A little too spicy for a Chinese place. I asked for medium. No on in front of me in line it still took them 12-15 minutes to make my food. Atmosphere is dull. They need to paint in there. Bring color and or decorations“

“The food was average, but the egg roll was delicious! One thing I really liked about this place is that you can see the kitchen while they’re cooking — everything looks clean and organized. The bathroom was also very clean. Overall, not the best food, but the place itself is nice and well-kept.“

“We used to live close to Yun’s Village and it was our favorite place for food.
I stopped in today and was so happy to see the same owner and the food was just amazing!!!
General Chicken and Spicy Szechuan beef was just the best!!
Well worth the drive.“

“This place is a gem. What a wonderful delicious restaurant. I am so happy that I found it. The food is delicious. The staff is friendly. The service is fast. The prices are fair. The almond chicken and pepper steak are a must have. I’ve also tried the pork fried rice, chicken, fried rice, and wonton soup and it is to die for. I highly highly recommend this restaurant to all who love and enjoy Chinese food. Ivy, the owner is super friendly and a wonderful cook. I almost forgot to add that the portions are amazing!!!! I can eat for 3 days!!!“

“First time here and it was very good. Being a native metro Detroiter I recall the days of fabulous almond boneless chicken (ABC) from one particular restaurant. 30+ years later, I’m still searching for that taste. This place is pretty darn close. The lunch combo portion was huge, more than enough for two very generous servings. In fact when I picked up the order the bag was so heavy I checked inside to be sure I had gotten the right order. The chicken was tender and breading crisp despite my not eating it for 45 minutes after picking it up. The gravy is the a bit salty neon yellow I recall. The fried rice with a few bean sprouts mixed in was equally good. I did not care for the eggroll, but its importance was marginal. The place is primarily carryout, although they have a few tables where you can sit and enjoy your food. My order was ready promptly. So if you’re one of those metro Detroiters looking to satisfy“

“Great food. Wish they had a slightly larger menu but what they have is good and tasty 👍“

“The food here is absolutely amazing, some of the best Chinese cuisines i’ve ever had. I ordered Chicken and Vegetables, the chicken was juicy and the veggies were fresh. The customer service was great and the portions were big. Will be returning and recommending.“

“The only place around here to order sushi from. It's kind of a shame they don't have a dining room, but I'm happy to take all of their food home and plate it up myself. Absolutely delicious, fresh, and they are fast when you order online.“

“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Canton China Restaurant is hands down the best Chinese food around! My go-to choice is the Sesame Chicken combination with chicken fried rice, and it never disappoints. The meal comes with an egg roll and plum sauce, and I always order extra plum sauce to pour over my rice for that perfect sweet and savory balance.

The food is always freshly cooked, and the portions are generous enough to enjoy again the next day. What really sets them apart is the quality—when you warm up the leftovers, they taste just as good as when they were first served. Even the rice stays moist and flavorful, unlike most places where it dries out if not eaten right away.

Beyond the amazing food, the staff is incredibly welcoming and always remembers me when I call or stop by. Their friendly service makes every visit feel personal. If you're looking for consistently delicious Chinese food with great portions and warm hospitality, Canton China Restaurant is the place to go!“

“China House Inn has become our go to Chinese takeout spot. We love TenYen but it's a little bit further of a drive and the good is close to equal. Delicious egg rolls, good shrimp fried rice, and most dishes have been tasty. The almond chicken gravy is bland and the Mongolian beef wasn't the best but we love the sweet and sour chicken, general chicken, and Szechuan chicken. Very nice workers too.“

“They have an Americanized menu and a Traditional Chinese menu. I ordered the Beef with wild peppers and the dried tofu in chili oil appetizer both off the Traditional Chinese menu. They were both really good, the beef was my favorite. Portion sizes were large, definitely big enough to split with another person.“

“Food is fresh and good. Credit card fee takes the joy away. Bring cash.“

“great place great food“

“Szechuan has been around since before I was born. They are family owned. They have the best Chinese food I have ever had!!! The food is always fresh every single time you go there! I would give their food 15/10.“

“Food is wonderful best Chinese food in the city very fresh customer service is great portion size is excellent try this place I would recommend“

“delicious every time, orders are correct and hot when picked up!“

“First time getting food from here. I had Sweet and sour chicken. They gave a large portion with a beautiful presentation. The only complaint I have is the food was very bland. It could have been seasoned better. I will go back for a different selection.“

“Very small restaurant serving authentic Shanghai-style Chinese food including some dim sum items on weekend afternoons. Make sure to ask for the Chinese menu (which has both Mandarin and English labels) not the very limited American-style menu.Slight extra charge for using a credit card.“

“Takeout food was all very hot, fresh and tasty! Also, even though I walked in 15 mins before closing time since getting off work late, the owner was super nice and her customer service complemented her delicious food perfectly. Highly recommend if you want good Chinese food!“

“Absolutely best and highest quality Chinese food that I know of. This isn’t your typical “Chinese Restaraunt”. You’ll find no buffet or anything of that sort here. Impeccable interior, with the added plus of the Jia Bar Connected and owned by the same owners. Stop and have a craft cocktail at Jia then 10 steps into the China Cafe through the door and be prepared for a fantastic experience! Owners are absolute gems as well.“
