They have several orders that they are driving around at the same time. But the thing that is totally ridiculous...... on my order I requested " house mustard ", you know the kind they throw a few cups in with all the other condiments. Well, this place doesn't give away mustard. They actually charge 35 cents if you want it. I love hot mustard and would have gladly given these cheap skates a dollar if they asked. But they didn't ask and I never got my mustard. Imagine, you pay 45.00 and they won't throw in the mustard. I'm done with this place.

Update time!! Since…read moremoving to Howell in 2013, I have eaten at China Moon as well as take out --- a lot. You can't Dine-in anymore since covid, but that doesn't stop this family from enjoying the delicious food here. Due to my health issues, I tend to get under the weather often---- so I have to just say that whenever I am feeling under the weather which can be often- my hubby and Mini-Me head right over to Linda's. I am a repeat order and she always has it ready for pick up. 2 large hot and sour soups, house fried rice and veg lo mein. On day 1 I love the HS soup broth, day 2 the soup vegetables with the rice, day 3 I repeat with the broth and day 4 vege and leftover rice and day 5 veg lo mein, this method works for me, and helps my body get back on track. Linda totally understands that her food makes me feel loads better and I able to get out of bed and function- I am not saying she is a miracle worker but...... after 10+ years of this, whenever I am sick- I can only say- that her restaurants hot & sour soup is my happiness, gets me out of bed able to work. Okay - and the rest of my family pretty much loves everything on the China Moon menu. Ingredients are fresh and if you have not tried the chicken wings, you have too, my husband really likes them. Family owned restaurant and I most appreciative of the hard work and dedication to their business. Support Local!

In Howell Plaza, you will find this Chinese restaurant waiting for customers. Upon realizing that…read morethey did not open on Tuesdays, I decided to return at another time. Brand: 5/5 Howell Kitchen is a Chinese restaurant located in Howell Plaza in Howell Township, and specifically serves Szechuan and Cantonese cuisines, which I appreciate. I really like the logo of Howell Kitchen with the leaping fish. The outdoor sign itself gets to the point with its name and Chinese characters. Inside, the grand wall art invites you with its realistic detail, and the wooden tiles give the establishment an authentic feel. Website: 5/5 It has a pretty good design, with a first impression that easily captures any curious passersby, a gallery of the menu items, and an option to scroll down smoothly. I do like the section that shows quotes from famous cooks. Most of the items on the menu have their own images. Wait Time: 5/5 I experienced no delays or issues while waiting for my order. I finished half of a page of fiction writing when my order arrived. Ambiance: 5/5 The establishment had no music, and it really did not need it. The machines in the kitchen gave off a strange, soothing cadence, making me think they already had music. I especially liked my booth, since it felt as though I sat within an establishment within an establishment, with the decorative wall art, the comfortable seats, and the large table. Despite the small space, the interior uses as much space as it allows with that booth being an example. As for the menu selection, you have a large array of options of Chinese cuisine. Food: 5/5 I ordered the Shrimp Egg Foo Young with sides of white rice and sauce. Every part of the meal had a well-prepared steam. The Shrimp Egg Foo Young had good texture along with the vegetables, even if it became difficult to cut with a plastic fork. While I could barely taste the shrimp, I could definitely taste the eggs and the vegetables. On their own they have an overall, unassuming taste, but dipped in the sauce and it has a pizza-like taste. I tried to use the sauce on the white rice as well, along with the complementary soy sauce, which definitely made the rice more savory and softer. Service: 5/5 I had no issues with the staff, whether it came to my order or the overall service. Cost: 5/5 Howell Kitchen manages to maintain a steady brand when it pertains to their food. Americans typically don't know about the distinct cultural identities throughout China, so I appreciate Howell Kitchen for specifying that they serve Szechuan and Cantonese cuisines. They look especially exquisite on their website menu, almost enticing anyone to place an order immediately. The wait time it took to prepare the Shrimp Egg Foo Young definitely matched the quality of the dish, since clearly the staff care deeply about the food they make and the establishment. The ambiance immersed me into the dining experience, and it did not try my patience while waiting for the order. Based on my first experience, I will say that it matched the standard appearance of a Chinese restaurant, with a tiny space and a view of the cooking process. However, what stood out was getting to sit nearby the painting, as though I became immersed into the landscape. The ambiance finds its way into the website as well. In order to enhance the Chinese cuisine within the website, my personal suggestion is to add quotes about Szechuan and Cantonese cuisine from throughout Chinese history. When I take into account the Shrimp Egg Foo Young, the rice, the sauce, the experience, and the effort to travel to Howell Plaza, I will definitely say that the price was worth it, and I got to introduce myself to a new dish. Rating: 5/5 Stars I enjoyed my experience in Howell Kitchen and I have hope that it will continue to represent Howell Plaza. I would consider it my first choice the next time I arrive at the plaza. Recommend To... Anyone nearby the plaza looking for Chinese food.

In fact some of the fried food gives you heartburn probably because they don't replace the frying oils until it's totally burned. Their soup taste more like water than a soup. Even a Pork Fried Rice which was always very good, lost it taste. It is more like a white rice. It seems this place keep changing owners or cooks. Their prices are going up but it does not justify the bad quality. Time to find another place because I'm running out of heartburn medications!

Everywhere I go I hear people rave about the quality of the food here and being the noble reviewer I am I decided to put aside my PTSD and give King's a shot... and I am so glad I did. King's has now become a staple in my household whenever everyone is in the mood for Chinese food. You truly cannot go wrong with anything on the menu and everything I've tried so far has been delicious. The sesame chicken is great, the dumplings are small but flavorful, and the noodles are OUTSTANDING. I also really appreciate the friendly staff, and the owner Frank runs a very efficient operation. Whether it's pickup or dine-in, I can confidently say you will love King's and it might just become a staple in your household too.

The owner, Freddy, is very chatty and told us on weekends, they have a line for tables. His service is amazing, he connects with all his patrons, and is super generous. He brought us hot and sour soup, additional dumplings, and gave us a taste of his chicken and eggplant dish. We ordered the standard Chinese take out items--general Tsos chicken, vegetable lo mein and string beans stir fried with garlic. Everything came out quickly. The general tsos chicken could have been more crispy, but I appreciated that they weren't just half breading. The vegetable lo mein was good, but the string beans were covered with pork. The menu doesn't state anything about pork, and I don't eat red meat. I didn't want to make it inconvenient, especially after Freddy had been so friendly and generous, so I just scraped off the pork. The hot and sour soup also had bits of pork in it, though it is normally vegetarian. Wonderful service and food, just wished the menu was more clear.

Then there is no real place to wait, bar is packed with others waiting. Now the positives. Finally seated the service was very good and more importantly the food was the upscale Chinese advertised. Two of us ordered the Whole Crispy Red Snapper which our server suggested ordering just one and sharing. We ordered two but it was huge. Duck Lo Mein was also plentiful and the Honey Miso Salmon was a dish not found in most other Chinese restaurants.
