“Really weird atmosphere and vibe. Service was good.
The soup dumplings were pretty good! Spring rolls were ok and the walnut buns were interesting. We had the braised bone-in duck dish and we thought it was too
bony and didn’t have a lot of flavor. Got general tso to go and it was kinda boring - no broccoli, no rice. Just deep fried chicken with some sauce on the side.“

“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.“

“The Dearborn, Michigan, restaurant has been a longtime fixture in our community, with employee longevity guaranteeing great service and consistent taste. On this visit, I had the signature lettuce wraps, which were plentiful and tasty. The pork egg rolls were still hot when they arrived at the table, and the dipping sauce had a bit of a horseradish-y tang to it. My chicken fried rice entree was large and had great flavor, and all three dishes were fresh. Dan, the manager, came to my table to check on our order and he was most gracious and friendly. I'll be back again soon.
Dietary restrictions: Most of the menu is halal, which is important in the Dearborn, Michigan, market.“

“We went to the P.F. Chang's by Fairlane Mall in Dearborn & even though it was 3pm on a Friday, the place was empty.
We didn't leave until after 4pm & only 2 other people came in.
I can see this Restaurant closing really soon if things doesn't change.
The food was the normal P.F. Chang's & the Bar Waitress/Bartender was great, but the menu has changed to smaller portions, but at a higher price.
The Happy Hour drinks & portions are a lot smaller, but the price remains the same.“

“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.“

“Hong Hua is in an interesting position, in which it targets a luxury experience and great eats. The environment certainly meets those expectations as it feels more like a higher end, business focused feel with the refinement, yet everyone seems to be in street casual mode. Also food is offered in a a’la cart style very similar to a higher end steak house; you bill can scale up quickly because of this.
Food: The menu certainly has specialized dishes you won’t find in the average Chinese restaurant. Peking Duck is one of those things you should certainly try; it’s an broasted duck served with a unique pancake & sauces. I’ve been going here off and on for the past 10 years and they seem consistent. IMHO I feel leans toward the western taste, meaning heightened emphasis on certain spices such as salt. I’ve had the opportunity to sample authentic Chinese foods in China & other Asian countries. In terms of authenticity I give them an A-; it’s tasty
Price: Seems to be on the higher end; from 1-10…I’d say level 7 or 8.“

“I'm not sure if it's new owners but this food now is so good to me I've actually been going to this place over 10 years now and it's so much better the service has always been great but the food is probably the best Chinese food you can get near to Inkster.“

“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.“

“First of all this is not a complaint, just my honest opinion. I called my order in and arrived to pick it up about 30 minutes later. The food was not ready so I waited another 10 or so minutes. The food was hot and fresh, the rangoon is delicious, I also got some other entrees that were good but the lemon chicken had a few hard and questionable pieces that made me not want to finish it. Everything else was fantastic. Now to the atmosphere, dirty dishes piled on tables and I didn't see anywhere appropriate sit and wait so I waited in my car until my food was ready.“

“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).“

“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.“

“Their food is very good place used to be around on Michigan avenue they close for a while after the grandparents passed. But the grandchildren open it back up using the same recipes in the food and quality is just the same. Smaller building there for less or lack of an atmosphere but the service is excellent and so is the food quick service too. Usually a little bit of a wait but that's just cuz they're busy because their quality is so good
Vegetarian options: They have multiple dishes that are vegetarian in nature
Dietary restrictions: They have multiple different choices and ways to accommodate dietary restrictions
Parking: What's a small building on the corner of this parking lot on the street If you can't find it just across there there's a small strip mall with a CVS another places that you can park to and quickly walk across the street very short walk. Parking isn't a problem“

“Great food. I've been going here since the 80s. Had a dip in service and food in the past but bounced back in recent years. The atmosphere is alittle out dated but i have so many memories, so it's not a major knock on the business. 4.6 out of 5“

“First time here, and I will differently be back. Almond boneless chicken was not the thin and bread normal. This was not greasy, lightly breaded, and thick with very taste brown grave. Rice was lightly seasoned and egg roll had taste, crispy veggies. Yummy. It's a must try.“

“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!!!“

“My son loves his place and says that their food is really good I'm not much of a Chinese food person so I can't comment to the different meals. However I can speak to their hot and sour soup it is the second best round the first best unfortunately closed a while back and I've been scrambling for a replacement and looks like this place is going to win. So if you like hot and sour soup I can definitely attest second best ever if you're looking for additional my son says it's very good.“

“There was a place I use to go and get the best sweet and sour sauce you ever tasted.
That place went out of business.
Since that I had never found another sweet and sour sauce like their's until now.
This place has the best sweet and sour sauce.
I prefer the sweet and sour chicken myself.
Tasty food and always friendly service.
Vegetarian options: Not sure of all the veggie offerings.
Parking: Adequate parking“

“Tried the general's chicken lunch combo. Was mildly spicy, not overly sweet, and chicken was pretty good quality. Fried rice was average, kind of on the bland side. Very big portions. Eggroll was ok, but on the small side. I liked that they plastic wrapped the entire food carton to keep it warm/fresh. Service was good.“

“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“

“I ordered off of the traditional menu and it was some of the best Chinese/Sichuan cuisine I've ever had. I ordered the beef and tendon appetizer and the fish with pickled vegetables hot pot. Both were delicious.
The tendon in the beef appetizer was sliced very thin, so it had the perfect chewiness without being overly tough. This dish features a spicy, numbing chili oil base with smashed cucumbers at the bottom. The cucumbers provided a nice, cooling contrast to the rest of the dish. The garnish of cilantro and raw garlic also provided craveable bursts of flavor.
The soup was also excellent. The fish was tender and flakey. The greens weren't overly pickled and had a great crunch. The broth had an excellent depth of flavor with notes of garlic, ginger, and various chilis. This dish came with a burner and stayed steaming hot for 45+ minutes.
Another thing about this place is the portions. They're huge. The beef tendon appetizer was enough for at least 2 people, and the soup was enough for 3-4 people. There was a PILE of fish in that thing.
I look forward to coming back here with a group so I can try more things. The interior is nice and they also have a full bar.“

“I have loved this restaurant for over 20 years.
My sons and I loved going here for birthdays, holidays, special occasions and just nights out.
The food is delicious, affordable and the portions are generous. We loved the wait staff who always remembered us and our order, and truly miss our visits here.
My family and I are very sad that during the pandemic they shut down the dining area and never reopened it.
The dine in experience is what is lacking the most for me/us.
We no longer get hot tea nor the delicious peppermint ice cream with our meals .
It feels rather impersonal and not at all relaxing to order carry out through a window in a line with others and then eat at home. Even though we still see familiar faces, the plexiglass we see them through takes away from the experience we know has existed
If there is anything it is lacking it is the wonderful dine in experience that is no longer available.“

“Really nice folks and beautiful interesting interior. Been on my list opening 4 months ago. Ordered Pupu Platter, Chinese Scallion Pancakes, Large Chinese Veggies Soup and Chicken Egg Foo Young. Surprised when eating inside no plates or silverware. Everything brought out in to go containers that's okay. Absolutely fantastic Delicious Scallion Pancakes not found in many places. The quart of Spot packed full was good except broth zero flavor like water. Chicken Egg Foo Young nothing like ever had weird crunchy patties with very small amount of gravy. The very good Rice and a mega amount. Egg Roll spot on Wonderful. The bad absolutely worse ever Pupu Platter Chicken Wings dry, Crab Rangoon Yuk, Shrimp heavy batter couldn't taste Shrimp. Ribs just ok, Spring Rolls a winner and what they call Teriyaki Beef I know as Balamaki was great. I'm willing to give them another chance to change my 3 star rating. Great effort by cook just not up to par with dozen other Chinese restaurants in the area.“

“I use to live close by a few years ago and the food was always good and reasonably priced and they stay open later than most. Went back there because the only place that I had found where I live now, and the Chinese food was really good, closed down shortly after covid. Just disappointed that they haven't upgraded their payment system to accept anything other than cash. I had to stop by the ? on the way.“
