50 Best Chinese Restaurants near Farmington

“Family owned business with a simple and straightforward menu. The food was decent, but the value is what pushed it to a 5. They packed the dishes with eggplant and tofu, and for $50 this is enough for 6-8 meals (and I am big person). The only thing I didn’t like was the egg/veg roll.

Owner also seemed very sweet. I love family owned businesses“

“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.“

“The best Chinese restaurant in the whole Michigan. The food is awesome and the family that own it are so friendly. This is our favorite spot and has been for many many years.“

“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.“

“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!!!!“

“This was actually my first time to P.F. Chang's and everything was amazing. The food was fast and absolutely delicious and our server, Sarah, was awesome. She answered every question without hesitation, made wonderful recommendations and was very attentive. We will definitely be back 😊“

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

“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.“

“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👍“

“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.“

“hands down the best chinese takeout I have EVER had, and the sweet woman who cashed me out and packaged my order made the experience even better! we are new to the area and have been trying places looking for somewhere to be our go-to and we definitely found it 🥰

oh, and the wonton soup is so delicious, there are so many vegetables in it!“

“Wonderful little place inside strip mall. A little outdated but it adds to the speciality of this place. They were really busy with carry out orders but the food is incredible with large portions and extremely fresh. Nice staff very prompt and efficient“

“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.“

“Overall good. Very pricey. Service could and should have been more attentive, especially in that only two tables were in my section. I'll stick to Shangi-La.
But the duck here was the best i have ever had.
My last recent visit July 2026, my food was quite bland and sparse protein.“

“Dishes were authentic and tasty here. Will definitely return especially for those soup dumplings! One thing I didn’t like is that we had to call a day or two earlier to make a reservation and to order the menu items.. Don’t forget you cannot walk in and get food here!“

“Some of the best Chinese cuisine in the metro area! I’ve had a lot of Asian food and this is some of the best. The general Tso chicken is tender. Rice is tender. The vegetables and the food is freshly made. it’s been a few times when I’ve called when other restaurants will be closing, but they always allow me to come in. They are very welcoming and friendly also.“

“tasty food at a fair price with great service. i got take out for me and my sister sweet and sour chicken pork fried rice spring roll and crab wantons. enough food for four people easily.cost me about 36 dollars. the staff is friendly respectful and polite. great place for a easy take out dinner or lunch“

“This place is Fantastic,. the Eat in experience is great Sizzling Hot food great tasting food anybody has take out. you need to experience this .“

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

“My family agreed it was the best general tso chicken, we've ever had. The shrimp chop suey was absolutely outstanding and the almond chicken also was the best we ever had. And the portions are huge, I finally found my go to Chinese restaurant.“

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

“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.“

“This is the best Chinese food I've had! The chicken is always crunchy!! Never soggy, even when I've gotten delivery in the past. Egg rolls and Crab Ragoons are amazing too. The sauces are very yummy as well. Cheap too; they have the 2-in-1 combos where you can get two big meals for $17 with fried rice and an egg roll included, enough to probably feed 3 people. I've recommended this place to many people, and I've only heard good things. Very good food!“

“Amazing food and helpful happy service. Fun to watch the chef prep the hand pulled noodles. Food is very good, nice broth and ingredients are fresh. Tables and room if open so with a large crowd it can get noisy. We came for lunch and it was busy but not very loud. We had the Beef la mien , bbq pork la mien and the schzeuan noodles. All were very good!“

“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”.“

“Deliciously food great owners. Love their hospitality love to go there all the time“

“These people work HARD!! I was waiting inside for my order. Watching their speed, efficiency, and mastery of how they juggle the strictly carry out business is impressive! Customers walking in and out every couple of minutes. Owner runs back and forth from the kitchen like a ninja!
Food is solid.
Sushi chef is FAST and good at what he does.
Shout out to the chef in the back whipping it up.“

“My go to “takeout” chinese restaurant in the area; great staff, generous portions, fresh food with great flavors🫶🏿I try different things on their menu and never disappointed. Their brown gravy is SO GOOD lol; I cook and bake and would do anything to know how they flavor their brown gravy for their Almond Chicken😅I always order a couple extra brown gravies just to keep in the fridge for other food I eat🙏🫶🏿I’d say try anything on the menu that sounds appetizing to you💯😁“

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

“I love that you can choose exactly what you want in your mala tang. There’s a great variety of fresh vegetables and different types of noodles.

The clear Chinese glass noodles are my absolute favorite. They’re chewy and have such a fun texture. The only downside is that they’re so slippery that they’re really hard to pick up with chopsticks. But honestly, I can’t give them up! They also have a good selection of fish balls, and I always add Chinese sausage because it makes the mala tang flavor even richer. The thinly sliced beef is almost like shabu-shabu style—super thin and perfect for the soup.

I also spotted something very unusual at the counter. Actually, “unusual” might be an understatement—it was a little shocking: fried chicken bones. Are you actually supposed to eat the bones? 😳 The whole idea of eating chicken bones is just not for me, and honestly, it didn’t look very appetizing either.

Anyway, my mala tang was delicious, and that’s what matters!“

“This is the type of Chinese place you know is gonna be good as soon as you walk through the door, just by the smell.

I got the General Tso Chicken and it was good but had literally zero percent spiciness. I suspect I was supposed to ask for some level of spice when I ordered so maybe that was my fault“

“Delicious food, reasonable priced, great and quick service. 10/10. Best Chinese in metro Detroit“

“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.“

“Great egg roll [Original] Great egg roll“

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

“Visited friends there. Food was very hot, served quickly. Atmosphere was nice too. Prices were good for the quality. Like most Chinese restaurants the food is Americanised. Would love some true cuisine as an option. Worth the drive for us though and if in that area again, would stop“

“Service is fast and friendly. They have good lunch combo specials, that can be had for dinner for a bit higher price. They have a real Chinese menu, as well as the usual American Chinese menu. The food is delicious. We especially love the hot & sour soup, and crisp spring rolls. 😃“

“great place great food“

“Love their food! Sandy, my friend, is the best! Before Covid, we’d take our lunches there from work all the time. She knew our orders by heart. They’ve stayed closed to dine-in, which is a bummer. It has a great classic atmosphere. BUT the food (as a carry out place) has stayed the same…delicious. Send them your business!!“

“Ordered for first time yesterday! I’ve been sleeping on this place for years because wow! The tom Kha chicken with spice soup 🤤 and the almond chicken Chinese with spice 🥵 amazing 10/10 ! i would post picture of my food but there’s no option to share pictures! I will be ordering again soon!!“

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

“Today my door dash order was a bit messed up. I called the store directly and they were very kind and quick with fixing their mistake. The food was very good, I especially loved the wonton soup. I appreciate them going above and beyond to make things right with my dinner !“

“I heard good things about this restaurant for years, and got chance to visit it today. They enlarged the menu items. They serve a combination of typical Chinese food and very authentic Chinese. They also have take out service. Quite a busy place when I was there. I had authentic style Fish Fillets in Hot Chili Oil and Chicken Stew with Belt Noodles with customized spicy level. They were soooo tasty! Tummy is happy 😃“

“Thai City has always been and still is our favorite! We lived in Westalnd for 29 years and moved up north. Anytime we go downstate, we order carryout! When our kids visit, they get carryout for us! I wish there was a Thai City near us. We're 2 1/2 hours north of Westland now.“

“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“

“Easily my favorite Chinese food in the state. Been going to China moon since I was very young. Moved out of state for a long time, came back ~10 years later and the staff recognized me. They're very nice people and they make great food.“

“We really loved everything we ordered. (Sesame tofu, shrimp fried rice, almond chicken)
We were amazed the shrimonerre not the little bay shrimp we have often seen used in fried rice, but rather, legit prawns. The almond chicken was a generous portion with a crispy coating and tender inside. The sauce on the tofu was tasty.
We will definitely be a regular customer.
(We ordered for a pick up so we didn't rate the atmosphere.)“

“I have moved farther North. 3 years now. Lived just up the street off 9 Mile. But there was no other Chinese food I loved and now long for than Dynasty, I miss them. But most importantly they delivered to our apartment complex. The young guy that delivered was going through college and he was such a cool kid I would tip him extra. Talkative and friendly. Wish I could recall his name and see what or how he is doing 3, 4, 5 years later. Can't recall his name, should have helped him out more. If ever I am back, I'll stop by, everything was delicious.“
