Best Chinese take out place on the east side! Great ABC and egg rolls. Love the special with ABC and fried shrimp is very good

Just ok. Wanted to give it a shot with the new owners. Very friendly folks, but the food was sorta meh. Eggroll was decent, fried rice was ok. The problem was the sweet & sour shrimp main dish. One chunk of pineapple, two hunks of green pepper in the sauce - the end. Outside batter was somehow overcooked and downright crunchy with the shrimp being mushy inside. Not sure how that happens, but I couldn't even finish it. Maybe they will improve but for now, many better options. read more

China Chef is a recent discovery. From the moment I walked in, the staff's friendliness stood out. It has the warm, welcoming atmosphere of a long-established, family-run business, and you can tell they take pride in what they do. I was craving good Chinese food one evening and decided to give them a try, and I was not disappointed. The food was delicious--flavorful, fresh, and well-prepared. The service was prompt and efficient, which made the experience even better. read more

We will try carryout from China Chef one more time. We ordered almond chicken for our first experience and it was far below average. We try almond chicken first from a new carryout Chinese restaurant. There was nothing good but we will order again so before writing China Chef off. read more

Food was hot and fresh! I recommend the almond chicken. Man o man, fresh hot and crispy Asian fried chicken. Service: so nice, kind and welcoming. Gave me my food with care and a smile knowing I'd be back (and I did return and will continue). Prices are fair. Straight carry out. Comfy and cute place. read more

Reasonable nice prices and fun to order from the food tastes better than grosse pointe where I used to order from Summer Palace

The food and service. It's nice and clean. They have good customer service. Located in a nice spot.

Excellent food - best General Tso's we've had in the area (and they can actually make it spicy on request!). It's a bit of a drive, so I'm not here often, but everything we've tried has been great! read more

New to the area and was looking for quick Chinese take-out. The woman at the desk was friendly and took my order quickly. We ordered Mei Fun (Singapore noodles) and Lo Mein dish - both were great. Portions were good size, pricing is what I would expect, two entrees came to $31. Very happy with what we had and will be back again. read more

Food was great! ABC was delish. $9 lunches! The gravy was a little bit different than I'm used to, but it was good. The "sub gum shrimp" came with a brown sauce.. normally is a light white sauce. I'm not sure if this was a mistake or if they just serve theirs differently. It was good, but I wish I would have known. Egg rolls were great- with bean sprouts. read more

Very tasty take-out. The ABC was very crispy with perfectly cooked interior. You get an entire package of pancakes with the moo shoo, so you don't need to order more. I am used to only getting three with an order - so super kudos. Looking forward to trying more dishes next time we are in town. read more

Great food. I looked for over a year for Great Chinese!! I highly recommend this place

Carry out only here. The food is solid and recently has gotten much better. I used to think of this place as a decent average place (nothing wrong with that) bit they've stepped it up. The only thing I have to say that they could change is that they don't use enough heat on their spicier dishes, but thats just an opinion. I like spicy dishes hot! read more

The rice was very good but the sweet and sour chicken and The sesame chicken was very thick and The sauce was very thick like gelatin, even after heating it up read more

The almond chicken was not what we expected. It was dry. And the outside was like it has been placed under a heat lamp. The rice was tasteless. Felt like I had to drown it in soy sauce. Disappointed for the prices. read more

Have lived in this neighborhood for over 30 years but just recently discovered China Chef. We are fans of. Vegetable Fried Rice and theirs is the best! Also great General Tso Chicken and egg rolls. Just wish they gave more plum sauce! read more

Family owned and ran! The food is consistently outstanding and fresh. The shrimp are large and cooked perfectly every time. The best Egg Foo Young I have ever had. Best Chinese on the East side. Take out only, feels like an authentic New York City eatery. Give it try. Ive need had a bad meal at this place. THE BEST!! read more

The sweet and sour chicken was excellent and the workers were kind. My new fav Chinese restaurant

I like China Chef. It's take out only. In my experience it's always quick and my order has never been wrong. The prices are good. My jam is shrimp fried rice and egg rolls. I like both their fried rice and egg rolls. The shrimp are a very nice size. You get your money's worth here. read more

Ordered takeout for a quick dinner. The Cashew Chicken was flavorful and spicy (ordered medium heat). Price point is typical for this menu. Will definitely order again when I am in the area needing a Chinese food fix. read more

Only two small tables here, so you're probably going to get take-out. I had the shrimp and vegetable platter with garlic. The owner, who took my order, asked me if I wanted it "hot", and when I told her that I did, she warned me that there are no refunds. But, it wasn't that spicy. It did, however, have too much green pepper taste in the dish, so much so that it overwhelmed the other tastes in the platter. It was OK Chinese food, but I think I'd go elsewhere if I had a choice and the time to exercise that choice. read more

China Chef - Small counter with two small tables. Almost all of their business is take-out. - Szechuan Near Me - Grosse Pointe, Michigan

Our go to Chinese, here in the Pointes. Fast friendly service, I have had to call a few times to get through, but that shows how good the place is. Huge portions, General Tsos is excellent, much prefer the chicken based dishes to the beef. Prices are very reasonable. read more

Prices just jumped but the food is good. It is a carry out establishment, so in and out with little conversation. Smiles from what seems to be the daughter of the business is mostly what you will be greeted with. Looks like they could take the time to clean a little but that seems to be the way ALL Chinese restaurants appear to me. Lots going on in there. They like to chatter in the back in Chinese. Sometimes it can get pretty loud back n forth. I get a kick out of it but sure they are arguing. LOL read more

This is a above average Chinese food takeout joint. General Tso's Chicken was a very generous portion and was very tasty. My wife is pescatarian (no meat) and really enjoyed the tofu version of General Tso's. Ordered app of the Crab Rangoon which was very different from other places. It has cheddar cheese rather than other places using cream cheese. They were decent but nothing I would get again . Overall, decent place if looking for Chinese carryout but still prefer Golden Chopsticks for my local Chinese read more

Love this place! Surprised at the rating given by others... maybe they had a bad day. Just don't get it.

Food is great, prices are fair! There is a language barrier so please be patient with them. They have been around for many years as we have been getting takeout since 2008. I now live in FL but when I am in town, we make it a point to have carry out from them once. read more

It was good but not my favorite Chinese restaurant. I got sesame chicken. I also got a spring roll on the side but it wasn't that good. also their bread rolls are just school lunch bread rolls. not worth the money. Just get the sesame chicken. read more

Pretty decent Chinese food in Grosse Pointe. Egg rolls were always the issue, but I think now they are much better than they have been.

Ordered the Triple Crown Chow Mein (with noodles). Husband ordered chicken chow Mein. We both received a container of soggy bean sprouts drenched in flavorless sauce with no noodles. When we called to ask where our noodles were, she said they were in a separate container. We hadn't received any other containers... After back and forth banter, I realized she meant the two bags of those nasty deep fried chips. We are supposed to put soggy bean sprouts over deep fried chips.... Google Chow Mein- you'll see pictures of pan fried noodles, not deep fried chips in a bag. The lady on the phone said "you must have been confused about the types of noodles". My food is a can of heated La Choy stir fry... I paid $40 for dinners, tips and delivery for Grocery store quality Chinese... Don't waste your time. read more

Food is good, this review mainly reflects the fact that you have to call about 17 times to place an order, and 15 minutes is closer to 45

They have good sesame chicken. I gave it another shot & it was good again but the rest of their items aren't good read more

Best carry out Chinese. Used to go to Golden Chopsticks but this place is way better.

Solid, good value for the quality. Fried rice and general Tso's are my go to. Easy pickup and friendly

I am completely confused how this place could have such high ratings. Except I'm not. I travel from the West Coast back to Detroit to see family--and sometimes we get carry out from here. And it's not memorable. Broccoli beef in a thick, gelatinous sauce (not that oily, but still)....Singapore noodles with too much grease, no spice and not enough shrimp and other things lurking in the noodles. Vegetables buried in some anonymous brown sauce. Oh no. I mean, no one got sick or anything and we all ended up full---but still... On the bright side, the people are hardworking and pleasant. And oddly, if the order is tuned by ordering in Cantonese, the entire food experience bumps up a notch (I think they cook to a Chinese palate in that case rather than an Americanized one)... One might want to consider making the effort to cross town and go to Golden Harvest if you're going to have Chinese food in Detroit....And yes, I realist this entire review could be lethally tainted by West Coast snobbism. I can't help it. read more

We had a pathetic experience: 1) We asked for Almond Chicken but instead got fried chicken which had a disgusting taste. Felt like we were gulping down just pure hydrogenated oil. We actually had to throw most of the food away. 2) They stuffed all the food in just one messy bag with all the sauces leaking to the bottom of the bag. 3) On calling the restaurant, they said that I was calling too late in the day, even though I called within 10 minutes of food delivery. On my insistence, the lady said that the owner of the restaurant would reach out to us within a short while but no one did. I would not recommend this place. Bad service, bad food. read more

I went to the dentist today and, of course, after being bad (i.e. eating too much sugar and chewing on ice) - I needed some repair work done on a couple of molars. Needless to say, my mouth had to be numbed and I couldn't eat for several hours. At around noon (I skipped breakfast), my stomach began to digest itself so I stopped at this little chinese place on Mack in the middle of running some errands. I really enjoyed the food. I ordered a lunch platter which comes with fried rice and an egg roll as well as a main course of your choosing. The egg roll was filled with bean sprouts - just the way I like it. Love the egg roll. The fried rice was very tasty as well. I did order a 'keep it safe' lunch by going with the almond chicken (considering that my mouth had not yet regained any feeling), but it was very good - I liked the gravy a lot. The portion was huge - for $5.25, it could easily feed 2 people. The chicken was a little greasy but still delicious. They lose a star for only carrying pepsi and bottled water as beverages. Granted, they are primarily a carry-out place, but there are tables to sit down and I am anti-pepsi. The also lose a star because I could taste the grease in the chicken. read more

There are a few things I miss about GP, and this is one of them. Next to Moy's, the best Chinese anywhere in the area. The Tso's and the Sesame Chicken are delicious. The Singapore Noodles are my wife's favorite. Bonny is a sweetheart of a girl, and is the perfect conduit between her parents (who are a little rough around the edges volume-wise) and the customer. Miss ya, CC! read more
