40 Best Chinese Restaurants near Pontiac

“Moved to Pontiac and this is just down the street from me. Ordered General Tso chicken and for $11 I got like 2 lbs. in a big white Styrofoam box (packed) They do NOT skimp on the portions and the Pork fried rice was amazing and the Egg drop soup was also good. I have their menu on my refrigerator and plan on ordering almost everything on the menu before the year is out.“

“I have enjoyed eating there for many years and would recommend it to all my friends. I hope they open for inside dinning soon.“

“This is that hole-in-the-wall Chinese spot your grandpa used to rave about and it still is. Been here since the early 90s for a reason! The sear and smokiness on the fried rice I got was to perfection and it was the old g-ma that cooked it, very legit American Chinese cuisine“

“My father and I stopped in for lunch at the PF Chang’s inside Somerset Mall, James was our server and took exceptional care of us! The food was delicious but the service is what really put this over the top! James was like a magician, here when we needed him and a ghost when we had mouthfuls of food (no one likes being bothered when they’re eating)… he made excellent recommendations and even brought over a sauce concoction, similar to the trio for our egg rolls that had spicy mustard that was fabulous! Overall you know what to expect from Chang’s and the kitchen delivered but James’s service was perfect and really made our meal an excellent experience! I’ll come here before I fight the crowds at Partridge Creek ever again! Cheers to the whole staff with an extra nod to our waiter James!“

“We had dinner on Sunday and Ethan was our waiter. He was very welcoming, attentive, and went above and beyond. Our food was delicious and we had a great time. Thanks!“

“Found this restaurant on google yesterday. I wanted to try something different and noticed that it was close to where I live and had better reviews than the other Chinese food place I’d been accustomed to going to. That in itself was a plus for me!
I placed my order online:
Sweet and sour chicken, my girls favorite dish…
Broccoli chicken, my husband’s favorite…
And
Pepper chicken for myself. I had never heard of it but was genuinely curious because I love pepper steak.
Everything was delicious! The fried chicken rice was fluffy and seasoned well. The sweet and sour sauce was tasty and had a good, thick consistency. The pepper chicken could’ve had more of the bean sauce on it for me so next time I’ll ask for extra. The peppers and broccoli were tender and the chicken in all of the plates was really good. My 11 year old daughter said to tell you “we’d give 100 stars if we could” and she’s my picky eater lol
Customer service was excellent, the young man even held the door open for me! Definitely going 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👍“

“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+++“

“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.“

“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).“

“This place is by far my favorite Chinese restaurant in Troy and is the only one that has come close to Kims since they closed. The food and service is always great. This most recent time we got carryout and they forgot our sweet and sour chicken. We called them and the main employee guy (the owners son? from my understanding) came and delivered it to our house HIMSELF. I have never had a restaurant offer to do this before, let alone a restaurant like this one that doesn't have many employees.

They also for some reason have pina coladas if you are dining in which seems quite unusual for a chinese restaurant but I'm 100% here for it. Who doesn't like options?

The only downside is the building itself is a bit shabby/suspicious looking, but the service and food make that easy to ignore.“

“god dayum I was surprised by how good it was. The chicken was super crispy, but not dry, and the sauce had the perfect mix of sweet and savory without being too heavy or sticky. Staff was nice, and service was quick even though they were pretty busy.“

“Be careful when ordering online. They automatically tip themselves. (I always tip cash) They got double tip on a carry out. Food was okay. Not like when previous owners had it.“

“China Express is hands down one of the best spots around! The service is always fast, friendly, and welcoming—you can tell they really care about their customers. The food is consistently fresh, hot, and full of flavor. Every dish tastes like it’s made with care, and the portions are generous for the price.“

“This is the best Chinese food in town“

“Delicious yummy 🤤 ! It was very nice atmosphere!“

“I can’t speak to in-house service or atmosphere. But we’ve been getting the same exact takeout (chicken subgum chop suey) here for years, so it’s easy to compare. It was good for awhile, then really went way down in quality. But now for the last 2 orders in 3 months, it has noticeably improved and is excellent! Fresh green crisp vegetables and tender chicken- $14/quart which is plenty for two. Not sure if the change is in ownership or chef, but whatever it is, it’s great again!“

“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.“

“Food was fresh and delicious and plentiful. Extras were taken with us to have another whole meal again. I would highly recommend this restaurant.“

“Delicious food, reasonable price, and large portions“

“They were pretty slow when I visited. There was no brocolli beef ready though, which is what I wanted. They made a fresh batch for me though in just a few minutes. Not the best Chinese food but okay for a quick lunch. My fortune cookie gave me an underhanded compliment, "You are as beautiful as you are intelligent." thanks?“

“Good chow !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!“

“Love Oceana Inn! Everyone is so friendly & the food is amazing— hard to beat!!!“

“Fantastic food. You must try the dim sum if you go.“

“Solid Chinese food option!!! I got the beef and broccoli “Dinner” that came with fried rice and an Eggroll and it was really good! Great price for the amount of food you get and the owners are so sweet. Definitely worth checking out and supporting good people and good food.“

“I went here when my daughter had a volleyball tournament nearby. I didn’t have very high expectations based on the exterior but The food was much better than I expected and the Service was kind. The atmosphere was a little rundown and not that many customers were there. It seemed like they had more carryout business than in house dining. It was enjoyable.“

“Their food is always delicious. I’ve pretty much ordered half the menu and have never been disappointed! The prices are fair with good portions. Of course they’re halal! & they have gluten free options!! Definitely a must try! & they are clean and friendly as well! 🙂 I would give it 5 stars!“

“Rating food is somewhat subjective, but I love & at times Crave Chineese food, especially Egg Foo Yung, a friend treated me that dinner & now I'm hooked on this tiny carry out restaurant. Super delicious, very generous potions & Best Priced menu, not to mention pleasant service too. This little place on M-59 is very busy, a needle in a haystack. My opinion, the go to place for egg foo yung, yummy!!“

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

“Delicious Bourbon Chicken 🍴“

“Great bar area! Staff is friendly and provides excellent service“

“This place was excellent. We drove 45 minutes looking for authentic 东北 region food, and not only was it exactly what we were looking for, it is among the best Chinese restaurants in the metro Detroit area. The service/staff was also wonderfully friendly. We enjoyed every minute there.“

“Surprisingly good for such a small place. I especially like the hot & sour soup. Seems like every place makes it a little different, some good, others, not so much. Their version is awesome. Also, the pad Thai - very tasty.“

“This is our favorite takeout Chinese restaurant in Clarkston. They do a great job at cooking the food as requested (veggies cooked through) and have some gluten-free options. They work with you and will substitute chicken without the breading when requested. We will be ordering from them on Christmas - our tradition.“

“Great food and portions. Very nice lady that runs the place.“

“I’m really glad I tried this place. The sweet and sour chicken is so good! My takeout order was ready promptly and the staff is very friendly. Food is packaged with care and the portions are generous. This will be my go-to spot for Chinese food.“

“Food is so good. This is a hidden gem. We found it completely on accident but I'm glad that we did. Definitely work visiting if you are in the area. i will be back and ill update this with more pictures and better knowledge of the food.“

“I felt the thai fried rice price was very fair for the portion and our waiter was very nice and I wasn't sure what kind of spice I would have so she gave me some pepper so that if it is not spicy enough I can add that and the restaurant was very very nice and food came in like 5-6 minutes and had take out and the food was so hot that even after an hour or 2 and and it had a soup which was very nice and the food just was sooo yummy in my opinion and this place is a MUST TRY!!!“
