10000000/10 When I tell you the auntie who answered the phone and took my order was thee NICEST PERSON! Omg she was so sweet and so sincere. Even if I didn't like the food I would come back for her customer service. But that wasn't the case at all, loved the food. We orders the meal for 2. It came with so much food, it's honestly big enough for 3 or more depending on how you eat. The food was sooooo good. Idk what they do to the chicken, but it has a different taste. It's so heavenly. Their chicken fried rice has actually nice pieces of chicken! Oh I love this place. Egg drop soup is some of the best I have ever had. I am so glad I discovered this place today looking to try some different take out. I live about 25 minutes from here and will continue to drive here for food. You can't beat the price or the service! read more

Tried this place since our local restaurant closed. This is take out only. I came in person to diet dinner and it was ready in only 15 minutes. Very fast. We had the Happy Family Reunion and the Mongolian beef dinner combo. The Happy family was pretty big. The Mongolian beef dinner combo didn't have as much meat as we were expecting (lots of onion) but the food was good. I want to try the Moo shu chicken or pork soon. read more

Always good. Had the almond chicken and General Tso's dinners. Excellent. Don't have a whole lot else to say

I used to love this place. Last night I called to order our usual as I have been ordering Chinese food from this place for YEARS.....asked for pork egg fu young (sorry can't spell this) and they said they weren't making it it was too busy. Also could not order a pint of pork fried rice only a quart if I wanted it. When we got the food there was NO eggs in the fried rice. We ended up ordering orange chicken which the breaded chicken was mostly bread. What has happened to this place. I'm going to look for a different place. Just SAD. I'm done here. read more

China Crown is a pretty decent choice for Chinese takeout in the Novi Area. The menu has no frills, but it'll provide everything you expect from any basic Chinese eatery. As a bonus, they make the ordering/ pick up process very straightforward and easy, which is always appreciated mid-pandemic. When you pick up, you'll need to wear a mask, the staff is wearing masks, and they'll pass you your food from behind a plexiglass divider. Additionally, the staff is very nice and quite friendly! The food is really what drives the 3 star review -- it's not bad, but it's not great... it's truly A-OK. The Lo Mein is slightly above average, but the Fried Rice is definitely below average (100% sure I wouldn't order it again). Overall, I don't think you'll have a bad experience from China Crown... but in an area with tons of options for takeout, there's nothing that sticks out abut China Crown that makes it a strong contender. read more

Credit card machine was down but the cash is worth it! You want good consistent Chinese then these are your guys!

Me and my family consistently order China Crown and we love this place. The food is always fresh and seems clean and "new" if that makes sense. Great variety of options and we have literally tried them all. We have never ever found anything we dont like. Great quantity for each order and they take care to get everything right. We love this place and are so glad they are close to home. read more

First, Prices have gone up so menu on their weebly site, is old. Had a craving for good old carryout American Chinese. Did the Family Combo for 2 which is now like $22.99. Got General Tso... Very good. Chicken Fried rice really good also. Added some Egg drop soup, yummy. The egg rolls were a bit dry and just okay. Lots of food, no clue compared to other Chinese carry out as far as value, but the food was good. read more

Mom and pop place run by a wonderful family. Food is very tasty, not over greasy they remember your order always put extra cookies as a thank you. read more

Customer service was amazing. The food was delicious and the restaurant staff were amazing. I highly recommend this mom and pop shop it's owned by an amazing owner and I can taste how much love he puts in the food. read more

A while back, I was here waiting for my order. As I waited, the woman, who I assume is the owner, was in the back screaming at an employee. It sounded like they were new and she was screaming that they were stupid. It seemed like the poor person couldn't please her at all. I was so appalled at her behavior that I threw the food in the garbage when I got outside. I'll never go back again! read more

Oh, China Crown, how I loved thee. When I first moved to the area, many moons ago, this was my go-to chinese place. My sister, my daughter, and I were on familiar terms with the owner and her daughter. We ordered take out or sometimes ate in and laughed and chatted with them. The kids sometimes played. The food was never fancy, but it was pretty fresh, solid in taste, and good portions. They were also fast. This place did, and during this visit seemed to still do, steady take out business. It has been a few years since I've been because I moved further south. While the inside looks the same and the service time seems similar, either I've changed or the food has. I ordered several dishes carry out. I watched several folks come in and leave takeout, so I expected some good, greasy, Detroit-style Chinese food. Unfortunately, I was disappointed. All of the dishes were quite salty, and the textures were off. The shrimp in the lo mein was chewy, for example. If I were headed home on this path, I might try it one more time -- so, so many good memories of this place -- but it might be time to keep those memories and enjoy better food from another place. read more

Food is delicious, and the service is very fast and friendly. We love to get carry out whenever we need something quick and tasty.

This is my go-to place for Chinese take out. The egg rolls are the best I've had anywhere. The chicken fried rice and wonton soup are also great. We cycle through several chicken dishes and are always happy. The owner is very kind and personable. read more

Decided to try this place instead of going to our usual place out here. This place is closer but I would much rather take the drive next time in order to be fully satisfied. I ordered pepper steak, it was ok, the beef was not as tender but edible. The rice was ok, the chicken in the rice was a little dry but the rice had good flavor. My husband had general Tso's chicken, it had pretty good flavor. The egg roll was pretty good. Ok for a quick bite to eat. The lady that took my phone order was very nice, my husband ended up chatting with her when he picked up the food and he said the same thing! read more

The food at China Crown is always incredibly fresh and flavorful and absolutely amazing. We have gotten soups, fried rice, deluxe pork, chicken dishes, seafood, moo goo gai pan, chop suey and chow mein. We just love the food. Even better is the fact that the owner is so kind and friendly and always makes you feel very welcome. read more

I don't know what everyone's talking about. This is the worst Chinese food I've ever had. The egg roll was tough and tasteless and came with a vinegar flavored sauce, which did not go well with the egg roll. The spicy orange chicken had no spice at all, and was flavored with a dark red sauce out of a can and had a metallic taste. The egg drop soup, on the other hand, was really good. Will not be going back here. read more

Lung pao chicken was good, not spicy though. Sweet and sour chicken was good. Orange chicken was ok. Hot and sour soup was acidic tasting. Definitely not balanced and almost like an ingredient had been left out. I ate the vegetables and tossed the soup. I love hot and sour soup too. read more

They aren't expecting you to eat in, so don't. My coworker Steve and I put China Crown through our two round testing methods and I would recommend that you grab carryout from here. The tiny two tables in the seating area are not inviting and the décor or lack there of makes this the greasy spoon of Chinese food. The hot and sour soup was good, it was the blackish thick and peppery variety with a good amount of flavor to it. It had a sweet note to it that was different, I believe do to the addition of American celery. This soup has ample crisp carrots and bamboo, tofu, and water chestnuts, it is well worth trying. On my second visit I tested the wonton soup, it was passable but not worth more then a mention The fried rice with my General Taos's chicken (first visit to the restaurant) was good, scoring high marks in all three main fried rice attributes, which are oiliness, chunkiness, and flavor. If any thing bad can be said about the fried rice is it's a bit on the dry side, though if you're the type to mix your fried rice into your entrée sauce then its spot on. The portion of chicken was just about right; it had a nice breading (the thin crispy kind of batter) with an appropriate Taos's sauce (red, slightly sweet, and having some heat) I had the deluxe rice (wide) noodles on my second visit, they where very nice, packed full of chicken, shrimp, pork, and vegetables. The portion on this entrée was large and it was packed with flavor. The noodles were done just right, slightly crisp with not a distinct sauce just sort of pan fried all together. The egg rolls had a medium dry outside with a good crunch, lots of bean sprouts and good meat mix. For the most part they are passable. Prices are reasonable 4.80 to 5.45 lunch combo (entrée plus fried rice) soup and egg roll are + 80 cents extra each. So if your looking for a decent carryout meal at a fair price, give them a try their menu is vast and you may just find something you love. read more

I just moved back to Novi after living in Kzoo for 10 years which had lots of great Chinese restaurants to choose from. The Novi area is severely lacking in good quality Chinese restaurants but I must say that this place is one that I will return to. The food quality is really good even though the actual restaurant could use some cleaning. I wouldn't eat there...do carry out. Good price for what you get! they don't take discover. read more

This place is very near to my home .. we ordered take out food .. when I walked to the restaurant , it was a very small place where people mainly ordered take out food . Pepper chicken and sesame chicken was very good . I would go again to this place .. read more

It's really hard to find a good Chinese take out place. This place is excellent. The beef lo mein, egg rolls, and won ton soup are always delicious. The woman who is usually at the front when you call or pick up orders is so sweet and friendly. read more

GREAT take-out! We were pleased with the taste and value of our first time order that included general tso chicken, egg roll, fried rice, shrimp lo mein, and steamed dumplings. Definitely better than any Chinese option closer to our house. Thanks, Yelpers for sharing your reviews so that we could try this place with a little more confidence! read more

Don't do it. My "fried rice" was just plain steamed with a sprinkle of soy sauce on top. My chicken was very questionable and the egg roll was burnt. I should've opened the box before I got back to work but it was too late and I just threw the whole meal away. Don't waste your money read more

So last night was my second time getting carry out from China crown, the first time was acceptable but last night was really bad and I won't be going back. Ordered the sesame chicken and beef fried rice, the rice was good enough , (nothing to brag about) the sesame chicken on the other hand was a joke. They must of ran out of chicken because half of the order contained no chicken at all, simply fried lumps of batter. Fool me once shame on you fool me twice shame on me. read more

Their food is very good, especially wonton soup and chicken wings are my favorite. The clerk is very friendly. The price is reasonable.

One of my favorite places to get Chinese food. Doesn't take longer then 15 minutes for my order to be ready. Portion sizes are consistent. The lady is always super friendly when she's there to me and my friends. read more

General tso is banging and so is the rice! Friendly staff, and good prices. If you're looking for a good Chinese place to go look no further

One of my favorite Chinese take-out restaurants! It's a small, family-owned restaurant that's more take-out than dine-in. It's very casual and comfortable. The woman working the front is always so sweet and friendly. She recognizes me every time I come in! I love the almond chicken combo, which comes with chicken fried rice and an egg roll. They have some of the best fried rice I've ever had! They offer great food and service, making it overall one of the best (and only) Chinese take out restaurants in Novi. read more

So, this was my first time in. I went in on a whim. I called ahead before leaving and the conversation went well over the phone. When I got there it was quick and easy. I was probably in and out in less than 30 seconds. The sesame chicken was pretty good. The egg roll was okay not the best I've had. The dinner and lunch options here are good. You get a few items outside of the entree for a reasonable price. It's not the best Chinese I've had but it was still good. read more

Just finished lunch here, we started looking for a new Chinese restaurant since China Cafe decided to raise their prices by 40%. China Crown is a small shop, just a couple tables designed more for take out, which is fine. I have Kung Pao chicken, and it was very tasty indeed. The chicken was cooked just right, the chicken fried rice was great, and the egg roll had nice character too. Not a boring egg roll, lots of different ingredients in there. My friends had SS chicken and Szechuan beef., They were very happy too. The prices were GREAT, too ! We found a new place for lunch ! read more

Before I went to China Crown I researched it on yelp and saw all of the good reviews. Upon my arrival I wasn't really impressed as the front door was wide open but cashier is sitting at table playing on her phone with a coat on. There was a clear view of the kitchen and it did not look to be the cleanest. I started to say oops I forgot my money but I said it may be good try it. I ordered almond boneless chicken. Normally at other places there are long strips of chicken. Their's looked like chicken nuggets. Nope epic fail i will not be returning. read more

Great chicken fried rice. I loved the General Tsos, spicy, but not too spicy.

Okay it's a hidden gem. I ordered the Szechuan Chicken with some egg drop soup and some spring rolls. The egg drop soup was decent, the main entrée was very flavorful plus the portion was enough for 2. Now the spring rolls were awesome. The only downside is that you probably wouldn't want to eat in the restaurant, too small. I will definitely be back for more takeout. read more

My favorite. Best sesame chicken. My fiancé gets General Tsao's chicken religiously. We go here once a week. In love with the food and owners. read more

The people are great and hard working but..... the food was below average and that is being very generous. Ordered spring rolls, chicken fried rice, and garlic chicken. I am the type that typically eat any type of food, but this was once that I could get through. I believe the oil and the chicken the used were heated (reused) several time, hence the very odd tastes. Not sure I'd give it a 2nd chance....like I said, good people and I hope that mine was an odd experience. read more

We ordered what I thought was the Hunan Chicken and Mongolian Beef and chicken fried rice. I do not know what to call the dishes we received.....was something else, the food seemed to defy logic, it did not resemble any Chinese food I had ever seen. The two dishes appeared to be the exact same thing, one with chicken and one with beef, they had the same vegetables and same sauces. The vegetables were cut in a way that seemed they were ran through a paper shredder. I do not know if they had an off day and they were trying to make bad food, but it was inedible. I had a good fortune from my fortune cookie so that was probably the most pleasant part of the meal. read more

The food is plentiful and the owners are so nice. Most of the time the food is really good. We have been going here for 14 years. About 10% of the time, an item might not be as good as usual like the soup a little watery or the rice a little less flavorful but the rest of the time it is on point. read more

Best Chinese food in Northville! The lady who runs the shop is super sweet and always takes excellent care of us. Good food, great prices, always fast. 100% recommended for takeout! read more

Small, carry out place that's located in a strip mall. If you're looking to get a standard American-ized fix of deep fried Almond or Sweet and Sour chicken, this place will get it done. If you're looking for anything beyond deep fried Americanized Chinese, you won't find it here. They provide good portions so you'll have lefties for lunch the next day. Prices are pretty fair. read more
