Message from the Business
It's hard to appease the masses, but China Cafe has done a superb job. Stop in for a pleasant dining experience with your family, a drink with your friends, or carry-out for a quiet night at home. The food is consistently tasty, fresh and top quality; and the service prompt and friendly. You can count on China Cafe for continuously raising the bar. Always a new emerging dish on the menu, a recommended wine to sip and a "Cheers" like atmosphere with plenty of regulars. Key ingredients to this magnificent "diamond in the rough" are co-owners, husband and wife, Kelly and Susana Chang. Come into China Cafe and experience Asian fusion at its best.

on Citysearch Dec 21, 2008It is perhaps the best Chinese food store in the entire area. The people are very amiable and the food is consistently good. I have the orange chicken almost once a week as my reward for making it through the week. I have... (more)

on Citysearch Nov 20, 2008The food is not the best I have ever had; though the crab rangoon can't compete w/ anyone else's!! (Golden House Chinese Restaurant in Howell, MI ROCKS!! ) The servers watch you like hawks (kind of makes you feel like... (more)

on Citysearch Nov 11, 2008If you have never tried China Cafe, you owe it to yourself to do so! But be prepared, this restaurant completely redefines the 'Chinese restaurant' experience. From the comfortable, contemporary decor to the... (more)

on Citysearch Sep 21, 2008I have been going to China Cafe regularly since it opened. Kelly and Susanah are fantastic people - one or both is always up front to greet and talk with guests. The food and service is consistently excellent, and it is... (more)

on Citysearch Aug 04, 2008Always pop into China Cafe when I'm in the Twelve Oaks Area. I'm never dispointed! Very clean and incredibly freindly service. (more)

on Citysearch Jul 17, 2008I absolutely love the food here!! They need to open more locations so I can go there more often. Kelly & Suzanna are so welcoming and friendly. They will prepare any dish that you like, even if it's not on the menu.... (more)

on Citysearch Jul 10, 2008I used work nearby for 2 years and HAD to go to this place a number of times. I can't understand all the hype about this place. I have tried almost every dish on the menu and can definitely say that it doesn't deserve it.... (more)

on Citysearch Jun 22, 2008Don't go out of your way. The rambling and subjective reviews are written by vainglorious locals who think Novi is the culinary center of the universe. In one sentence: if you think the Lions are going to win the Super... (more)

on Citysearch Jun 21, 2008Can't say enough about China Cafe. The owners Kelly and Susana personally greet their guests and make everyone feel welcome. China Cafe is such a wonderful resprit from the national "cookie cutter" chains. Great... (more)

on Citysearch Jun 13, 2008Please ignore the supercilious jerkoffs who've given China Cafe a 1 out of 5 here. It's ridiculous to call this restaurant "lower than the average" typical neighborhood spot, or whatever the Einstein who made that... (more)

on Citysearch May 12, 2008I know why this restaurant is popular!!! The people at the table next to me were so drunk they could have been eating dog food. I'm not kidding. They kept ordering round after round. Drunks will scarf down anything just... (more)

on Citysearch May 10, 2008Did not care for the food or ambiance. Do not understand all the hype. It is on the low end (very low end) of typical suburban Chinese fare. There is a bar scene but that is not why we drove 15 miles. We will not return to The... (more)

on Citysearch May 03, 2008We have no affiliation with any other local resturant. Don't own one. Don't work in one. We work hard and don't like to be conned when we spend money eating out. From the looks of the other people who have written reviews... (more)

on Citysearch Apr 20, 2008Just went there tonight and I was impressed! I was skeptical due to some of the bad reviews on here but was persuaded to go check it out and was pleasantly surprised! Orange chicken was great as was the fried rice soup and... (more)

on Citysearch Apr 10, 2008I'm looking for a Chinese restaurant where I can eat: I have an MSG allergy. Not this one! I asked for steamed tofu in Genreal Tso's sauce and steamed vegetables in rice with some kind of tasty sauce with no MSG and no... (more)

on Citysearch Feb 02, 2008Are you kidding me? People HONESTLY think that this is a one-star restaurant? I call shenanigans- these negative reviews are likely from owners of competing restaurants trying to bring down the best Chinese... (more)

on Citysearch Jan 06, 2008After reading the reviews, we tried the China Cafe. Sorry to say we have to agree with the ones that say many of the 5 star reviews for The China Cafe must be a hoax. 100% FICTION. The China Cafe is a local watering hole that... (more)
