21.Kwong Tung Inn

3040 E. Eight Mile, Detroit; 313-891-0030; zmenu.com/kwong-tung-inn-detroit
“OH. MY. GOD... Prepare to be amazed... I got takeout at 9-ish on a Friday and I had no expectations. Literally the best Chinese I've ever had. General Tso's chicken was amazing, I immediately regretted ordering the pint-sized portion. I literally licked the inside if the container and ate the broccoli stems (I usually just eat the florets!) The crab rangoon were also best I have ever had. This is literally my new favorite Chinese place.” — James G. on Yelp

“This is hands down the best chinese food in the area. It's a great carry-out option, just remember it is cash only. The General Tso's is actually spicy!! It has everything you'd want and more. The rice is pretty good too, so is the wonton soup. A+”— Kristine H. on Yelp

23. China Bowl

3781 Dix Hwy, Lincoln Park; 313-382-7787; facebook.com/chinabowlchineserestaurant
“Ordered carry out and was greeted by name when I arrived. The almond boneless chicken dinner was enough for four people! The sauce was sublime and there were a lot of sliced almonds, not that almond "dust" you get elsewhere. The only thing missing was green onion. The egg roll was perfectly cooked. Will definitely return.” — Sandra A. on Yelp

25. New Hong Kong

8695 Telegraph Rd., Taylor; 313-292-3050; facebook.com/NewHongKong
“New Hong Kong has long been my favorite Chinese restaurant in the downriver area. The owner is always at the register and always involved with the guest experience. He works shoulder-to-shoulder with his staff to ensure your dining experience is a great one. As for the food: come hungry. The portions are huge and the food is always hot and fresh. I like the chili-fried chicken.” — Wes Z. on Yelp
