Went to the China Bowl restaurant for dinner, it's a little rough around the edges inside, could use some TLC, the food is excellent and they give you tremendous portions for your money. The employees are so sweet and accommodating to you. They have only one waitress for the whole restaurant and she is fantastic at her job. She is organized and very pleasant and takes good care of the customers. They have a long table against the wall, containers for take home portions, carry out dinners waiting to be picked up, etc. They have a cult following and all the faithful customers that dine there overlook that area. Once you get the drift of things, people come back again and again for their great food. Hub and I are regular customers and will continue to be. Kind, humble people working hard to please their customers, give them a try! Debbie Riverview Mich read more

Terrible service. The food was mid or average. I placed my order over the phone for pickup I was the first person in line, yet the lady completely ignored me and checked out this gentleman behind me. I would hate to bring race into this but as a black women i felt discriminated against, I let go of the fact that she ignored me standing at the front counter and instead I just stepped out of the way and let him finish paying. Once it was my turn I paid and received a merchant receipt that i had to sign for, this receipt was abnormally cut and the print was very small I politely asked her where she wanted me to sign and she rudely slap her hand on the table and yelled "here" without checking if i understood her. She then said something to her coworker that I couldn't catch. So the overall experience for me was terrible. I should note that mere seconds ago she was laughing and smiling with the man who cut in front of me but super cold and rude to me who just asked a polite question. read more

they have rats walked in and walked right back out they were running around the dining area very disgusting

As a regular there that dines in for lunch on the weekend, the service and food is very tasty. I went there for a pick up at dinner time and there was a different person there than lunchtime (no big deal as she was doing her usual managing the dine-in crowd). There was a different woman that cashed me out and made it a point to tell me to tell me to tip and put her hand on the tip jar. I always tip well when i have good service dining in. When I carryout, asking for a tip is offensive and should never be asked, such as my encounter. read more

I really wanted to like China Bowl, but unfortunately our experience was pretty off-putting. My wife called in to place an order for four people--just a normal-sized takeout order--but the woman on the phone was really rude and kept saying things like "too much food" and even implied it was "for fat people." That was totally uncalled for. When I arrived to pick up the food, the same employee repeated that comment in person. It was just two bags of food for four people--nothing outrageous. To top it off, she insisted that I should tip for takeout, which just didn't make sense to me since I was only picking up my own order and didn't receive any extra service. Overall, the food might have been okay, but the attitude and treatment we got was really disappointing. I hope they can improve their customer service because this kind of experience really leaves a bad taste. read more

Alright. Since I've moved to Taylor I've been looking for a consistently good Chinese place. I'm still looking. This one was average at best to me. Only thing I can say I loved was the egg rolls. They are made old school style(WITH BEANSPROUTS INSTEAD OF DARN CABBAGE) I ordered Almond chicken for me and Sweet and Sour for my husband. The gravy for the Almond Chicken was a NO for me. I did not care for that at all. I'm not use to almond chicken gravy being darker than me for one and the flavor was just off to me. Glad I asked for it on the side. I ended up buying my own sweet n sour sauce for my chicken. My husband said his Sweet n Sour was average as well. So this will be a one and done visit. The restaurant was clean, staff were nice. read more

This review is my 2nd for china bowl. Their food is amazing. I have never had a problem with my food experience or customer service while ordering over the phone. Yesterday I got in my car and said I want to EAT. I enter and there is 1 family eating which isn't unusual because I have been there 4 or 5 times previously and there is not a lot of sit in customers. I am seated order tea and soup. After that crickets the waitress looked at me once and never came back. Approximately 30 minutes later I gathered my things and decided to go pay for my bill. I was trying to be patient because I knew they must have had a lot of call in orders. I watched my waitress and another woman pick through pea pods. But I was hungry, confused and hangry. Once I got to the counter the waitress played deaf dumb and desolate as if that's all she thought I wanted and I asked her why would she give me a menu. Her response was do you want take out. Another younger woman said to give me my soup for free. I said no. But was only charged for my tea. I called today to order takeout because when we get a taste for something it remains on your mind. A woman answered and I heard another phone ringing and paused to see if I was going to be out on hold or not. The woman was most definitely the same woman from yesterday (rude tone and all), said do you want to order or not. I hung up and said don't engage because whatever is going on with this person has nothing to do with you but is going to cost this restaurant a dent in the pocket and reputation. Which is sad because their food is A++ read more

Never diii reviews, but if you want a brutally honest one here goes. The sesame sauce is great / you can tell it's real chicken breast. Think I've had fake stuff so much, that it threw me off having to chew it a bit too much. Used to it being soft. Shrimp fried rice 20/10- texture, taste, tons of shrimp. Sweet and source chicken 6-7/10. I felt the flavor could have been more powerful , seemed a bit watered down. But I'll go back - egg roll greasy but great read more

Let's start by saying nice atmosphere when walking in to lobby to pick up carry out , the portion size was very large which was a plus got a quart of chicken chop suey and added shrimp and mushroom , also ordered quart of shrimp fried rice and 2 egg rolls , the chop suey was good and plentiful it just lacked flavor but the sprouts in it were crunchy like I like and not soggy , just the right amount of juice in it not drowned like some places do ,just like I said though not enough flavor , the shrimp fried rice you get a tonin that order packed full of shrimp and the container is overflowing , the egg rolls are pretty good but the hot mustard for the egg rolls is phenomenal ....the cashier was the sweetest lady and I appreciated her kindness ....now where I knocked off a star is price , while you get plenty of food it was almost $40 for that $37.99 to be exact I was floored I didn't expect that I was figuring more around $25-$28 for it since I added shrimp . Overall I would order her again but be mindful of the prices but at least I know for next time myself .....recommend trying if your near and hankering for some Chinese food read more

Best Chinese for SURE. I do not go any other place, it's authentic and genuine good food. They aren't on door dash and I think that shows how authentic this place is! I love the lo mein, almond chicken, and Mongolian beef. read more

Got food poisoning from the almond chicken, will never be back, sickest I've ever been

Ordered last night, August 16th. No. 21 and no. 22 for the family. Always have left overs of course, which is great. But today, after plating left overs to reheat in the microwave, found metal shavings in the food! More than one. Been ordering here for years... come on, now. read more

Food was bland and SO expensive. Inside feels like every other chinese restaurant, built for takeout. Wait was ok, but that lady will make sure you tip her at least $10- she will call you broke if you don't... literally. Even if you were reaching for cash and not paying it on the card. I always tip, even on takeout, but this is the first time I wish I didn't because it was so rude. I would recommend lucky dragon in wyandotte instead if you want actually good food for a similar/cheaper price. read more

Well I am more of a Japanese food guy than Chinese food. I really I am picky when it comes to Chinese food. This place I swear has only one waitress God bless her heart. She works very hard not just to make you feel at ease , but to make sure your food is ready. It's a little divey but it stays clean. I am used to the chicken and broccoli. But I am also fond of the Singapore noodles which I think makes me comeback to this place. Enjoy it with some won tong soup and some green tea. These two dishes don't tend to fill you up quick so the tea will just relax you as you enjoy. That's is all. Chief After good Taco have a good tobacco. read more

I've eaten here many times and this time brought my sister after we were out and about on a Saturday. She wanted "good" egg rolls and I said, "I'll take you to a great place, that reminds me of Red Ruby." Where we always went growing up. The place was packed for dinner time and we had to park on a side street. The staff were almost speed walking in order to keep customers happy, one lady was waiting tables using a cart to deliver courses in timely manner to 3-4 tables at a time. I had my favorite chicken lo mein and my sister had cashew beef dinner combination, which included: egg roll, soup entree fried rice. You get hot tea and these crispy fried noodles for your soup, plus there's another type of fried snack sprinkled with cinnamon which are addictive. Our food was very tasty, hot and servings are plentiful to share or take home leftovers. The chicken and beef in or entrees were large and tender with wonderful flavors. There was also a steady flow of carry out orders getting picked up. Another very satisfying meal at China Bowl and I encourage you to come try them out. read more

Good Chinese food good service. It's my favorite Chinese place to go. I'm glad that it is close to my home as well. It makes it easier to go love their eggrolls. read more

Great food, great portions, decent prices, and great service from friendly staff. We love server Tammy. Runs her legs off and very attentive read more

I've dined in and got carry-out from there and I'm not very impressed. We got Almond Chicken last time and it was really tough and chewy like maybe it was still frozen when they dropped it in the fryer or something. I miss Lims in Dearborn. read more

I did not care for the Cathay House- I mean it was good. But it was too expensive in my opinion. But they closed and now theres the China Bowl in its place. I have been there 3 times in the span of a month- each in a different capacity. The first time I went on Cheap Date Night- We had Great food, and great Service, great prices. The food was fresh, and tasted amazing. We had Basic Almond Chicken and Sweet and Sour Chicken. The breading on both chickens were so light, and thin, and crispy, and flavorful. The chicken inside the batter was clearly white meat and actual pieces of meat not the fake stuff. The sauces were great homemade sauces that tasted fresh. The Sweet and Sour Sauce tasted like thickened Pineapple juice that was infused with bell peppers; with chunks of pineapple and bell peppers inside of the sauce. My only complaint is the fried rice is basic white rice that has been doused in soy sauce; no veggies inside or anything. The second time we got take out. The dinner for 2- includes Almond Chicken, Sweet and Sour Chicken, White Rice, Soup. The hot and sour soup isnt the best ive ever had, so Eggdrop this time around, but it was very eggy, and not very asian flavored if that makes sense. Take out was quick, inexpensive, hot, and still fresh. The third time we went as a big group- around 6 of us. All ordered different things from General Tso's, Sweet and Sour Chicken, Almond Chicken, Shrimp with Lobster Sauce, Curry Chicken, Steak Kow, Chicken and broccoli. Food was fast, delicious, fresh, and still pretty inexpensive. The wonton soup was delicious- i think this is what I will stick with The hot tea is really good for being bag tea and not loose leaf. You are given fried wonton skins for the soup, and sweet wonton skins for after the meal. Quickly becoming one of my favorite places. I will work my way down the menu. read more

Very good I was impressed to see how big the shrimp were in the shrimp fried rice and you got quite a bit. The sweet and sour chicken was very tasty along with egg roll. Definitely will be going back read more

Service sux food is good. I recommend take out , no bad service but all good food. The waitress was by herself, rushing, throwing plates, and snatching plates and talking with an attitude because she was by herself(understandable). Service was terrible though. I will never eat in their dinning room again what I will do is order take out from there. read more

We love this place! The amount of food they serve is absolutely ridiculous in the best way. One dish is easily enough for 3 meals for me. Everything is delicious. The crab cheese rangoons are to die for. They staff is welcoming and accommodating. This is one of our favorite places to sit down and dine. read more

The food is amazing! We had the chicken chop suey and pork fried rice and my only regret is that I'm too full to eat more right now, but thankfully, the generous portions left plenty for us to take home! ...and we got service with a happy smile, too! read more

Literally the worst chinese food i have ever had. Chicken was dry as fuck. Sauce was like thick and flavorless. Fried rice tasted like coffee. Genuine dog shit food. Will never come back. read more

The food is always good and the prices are reasonable. We always go home with leftovers from the more than generous portions.

Best egg drop soup! We love the Chicken Szechuan and the Fried Rice. Great service whether to go or dine in.

Good food very satisfying and delicious and very easy place an order there quick service

Went to the China Bowl on Christmas day for Take out order Heard some pros and cons about the place so went to see for myself. My order was 66.00 dollars for six people plenty of food and a lot left over.Very veryn good!!!!! Would like to dine in there. read more

Carry-out, order was ready when promised, food (pot stickers & orange chicken) was very good & plenty of it. Staff was very polite on phone as well as counter staff. Will add on this establishment to my list of favorite carry-outs Dinning area appears to be a bit spartan, not a place to go to impress, just good food reasonably priced. Ambiance - we did a carry out read more

Great food and excellent, above-and-beyond service. The shrimp was tender and flavorful.

I like it here. The food is good and the portions are huge. Orange chicken is my go to. Plus they have bean sprout eggrolls which are the superior eggroll. I'd give it a 5 except for the Crab Rangoon. The Rangoon is terrible. The worst I have ever had. They are tiny and gross. Do not get them. A real miss from an otherwise good restaurant. read more

It was better than I thought it was so good I was mad I couldn't finish the rest of you've had good food you know that feeling I'm gonna keep this short and sweet I will definitely be back read more
