Once again I find myself trying a new Chinese takeout place. This time I was in Livonia, grabbing lunch while waiting for my wife's car to finish getting serviced nearby. My go to is General Tso's Chicken, which came with fried rice and a spring roll. I was fortunate enough to come during their lunch special hours, so it was under $10. Most places that have a similar offer give you a ton of rice to create the illusion you're getting a good deal, but I was more than happy with the quantity here even though it wasn't filled to the brim as the rice was delicious. The chicken was also perfectly cooked with the right amount of crunch on the exterior. When I have to get my wife's car serviced again I'm definitely coming back read more

I have eaten at many different take out Chinese places over the years. I decided to get shrimp lo mein from their lunch menu. It did say that it comes with fried rice and an egg roll but other places have said that but you don't with a noodle dishes. When I opened the Styrofoam container I found half of it. Less than half is noodles with less than the normal shrimp. Not even average compared to the others I have eaten. The egg roll was nothing to write home about. I have no clue why all the higher star reviews except they haven't eaten at some of the wonderful places I have. I will not be back. read more

I used to always order from the spot but recently they have been slipping. I always get general salt chicken with fried rice or lo mein. The last two times I ordered General salad. The chicken was undercooked pink in the middle. Today I decided to go by and get just a lunch combo with lo mein. I requested the chicken be cooked well done with extra sauce. Chicken in the second picture to the right shows the pieces that looked like chicken, but we're just battered flour clumps into the top of that is chicken that was not chicken. It had the texture of Hay with sauce. I don't know if it's chicken feather if it's part of the chicken breast, it just isn't good. I don't know, but it's definitely not chicken. Then they're hot sour soup used to be my go to for cold days days that I felt under the weather, but they changed the recipe and that it was more so like a hot sour mushroom soup. Yes mushrooms that's it. You get the soup, broth and mushrooms and nothing else. I don't know. I'm not liking the changes in the quality. read more

If you want clean, convenient, and consistent Chinese food then Happy Wok is your place. My food is always prepared fresh, cooked to order and tastes great every time. The staff is pleasant and accommodating of special requests or variations and always delivers service with a friendly smile. read more

So far this is the only place I found that tastes like Chinese and not a place that takes store bought noodles off the shelf and drenches it oil. The pork is made difference, and never consistent. If you're planning on using Uber Eats to pickup here - don't. You will be paying $5 to $9 more!!!! read more

Some of the best almond chicken I've ever had. I drove a half hour just to try it and it didn't disappoint. Got it with fried rice which I loved too. I'll be back next time I'm in town. read more

Happy Wok - Almond Chicken with Fried Rice - Chinese Near Me - Livonia, Michigan

Used to love this place, now the fried rice is absolutely atrocious, I don't even know what they were thinking using this type of rice, never order unless you want the worst rice you've ever had read more

Order shrimp and lobster sauce. It's supposed to be a thick lobster sauce with eggs and broth, but it was watered down like having hot water as a broth plenty of shrimp, but I would never order that again from there read more

We enjoy getting carry out from them their almond chicken never disappoints. There is an issue with grub-hub menu not being the same as the restaurants online menu. read more

This is one of my favorite neighborhood restaurants and my go to Chinese spot. The food is consistently good and the staff is friendly :) They have a ton of vegetarian options which is not the case for other Chinese restaurants in the area. I often get the family style tofu dinner with fried rice and a spring roll. The spring rolls are much better than other restaurants I've tried and also vegetarian. My partner is always happy with the chicken dishes and pad Thai he orders. Also the leftovers reheat really well when I take them to work.. This is a busy spot and something I appreciate is that it's always hot by the time I get back home. I drive across town 15 minutes bc the food is so good. On occasion it's so busy that I have to wait a few minutes for pick up but I would much rather the food be fresh from the kitchen than sitting in a shelf waiting to be picked up. I hope this place stays in the neighborhood for many many years to come. Thank you, Happy Wok read more

Whenever I'm in this area, there seems to be a gravitational pull to Buddy's Pizza and consequently, I never noticed this restaurant. During the pandemic, this place converted to an all-take-out operation, its vestibule blocked and a tiny pass-through created for food/money exchange. Based on reviews, I placed an order for General Tso's chicken, almond chicken, and tofu and vegetables. The food was completed by the time I arrived (20 mins) and it was still hot when I returned home. I was disappointed by the General Tso's chicken; the chicken pieces were overcooked so tougher than I would have liked. I did like the spicier flavors, although nothing compares to my dad's version. In contrast, the almond chicken pieces were crispy and tender. The almond-flavored sauce was bland though so I ate it without (which is fine because this means fewer calories and carbs). I wished I had ordered the sweet and sour, though. The tofu with vegetables was terrific; I loved the variety of crunchy vegetables. The serving sizes were huge so there will be lots of leftovers this week - bonus! Service was as can be expected with a pass-through. read more

I hate to leave a poor review for a small business, but this place seems to have slipped a bit under the new ownership. I ordered a Kung Pao Chicken and Hunan Beef and neither of them bore any resemblance to traditional preparation. The same generic brown oyster-ish sauce and really gross mushrooms and canned baby corn. No peanuts to speak of. Nothing remotely resembling wok-hei in how the stir fry was done. Sad read more

We have ordered from here several times and everything usually taste good. But maybe someone new was cooking tonight. The beef and broccoli had no flavor but what I'm really upset about is the ​​​​​​​​hot and sour because it ​was incredible way too spicy. The soup was ​​​not the ​standard ​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​amount of heat. ​​​​​My mouth was on fire. The average person who orders this kind of soup usually likes spicy food ​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​but with ​the amount of heat that was added ​​​​​​​​was not a normal amount and would not be enjoyable to costumers who enjoy spicy food. I will give them one more chance but tonight was a disappointment. Their recipe ​​should be the same every time ​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​ read more

I've been coming here for 8+ years . I recommend Happy Wok to all my friends and family , it never disappoints. The dishes are freshly made. It reminds me of Chinese take out from California . There's different options for vegans and vegetarians. They are family ran with great customer service. read more

Sorry to say, but the food was just meh. When trying a new place I always order the Pepper Steak, kinda make or break it for the new place. I was not impressed. The steak was tough and chewy, the onions and peppers were nice and crunchy but the sauce was flavorless. The spring roll looked great on the outside but so greasy on the inside and had a plastic taste. Fried rice was just a yellowish brown rice with chunks of chicken- not much flavor or any other goodies like egg, peas, carrots which tend to be common in many Asian restaurants All in all disappointed with this place- no flavor, greasy, tough and there were some kind of clear gelatinous globs in our meals...yuck. read more

Food is fast and fresh. Prices are great. I have been consistently coming here for 5 years and love it. I can't remember ever having a bad experience. read more

I am a fan of this place. Cheap and tasty luncheons. You can't complain much about that. I will say I am rather one note here. I generally get what I think is hands down the best dish, the general tso chicken lunch combo. I get it extra spicy, which I definitely recommend. You can add meat to the fried rice but it is totally not necessary. I only did it once. The egg roll can be greasy but nothing else is. I especially like the less soyed up super fresh fried rice. The meal is plenty filling, you can even share it if you are not a huge eater or if you get some happy crab Rangoon to share too. The crab Rangoon is hearty and happy. Just don't try to add shrimp toast, they are always out of it, much to my coworkers distress. I've gotten it delivered and done pick up and both are on time and piping hot. Never any errors either. That is super impressive in my book. The place is not going to blow your mind but it is consistent, cheap and tasty. Never an ounce of regret. I like that for lunch. read more

I have tried this place twice now and the food has been delicious. Good portion sizes. Great taste. Good value. I have ordered the chicken chop Suey, crab Rangoon, almond boneless chicken, fried rice, Eggrolls and wonton soup. It's all been very good. For takeout I especially like that they use strong plastic containers with tight fitting lids for the main items which means they will travel well without leaking. The rice is packaged up in traditional white takeout cartons. It may seem like a little thing but I have had bad experiences with other places where the food leaked in my car. That's not the case here. I have never eaten inside because of Covid. But I will definitely come back for more takeout. read more

Food was not good at all, burnt shrimp and rice was bland. It was literally rice and soy sauce, fried.

Ordered 2 shrimp spring rolls ,after a 5 minute wait recieved this tasty delicious treat the outer crust on these spring rolls was perfectly done and the filling had a great flavor with juicy shrimp and plenty of them , the cabbage filling inside was a delight to bite into and made me wish I bought 4 instead of 2 next time I'm out that way it'll be a special trip here to get another tasty snack ......highly recommend read more

Happy Wok - a parking lot with a stop sign in the foreground - Chinese Near Me - Livonia, Michigan

This restaurant is located close by my home. Gone there a few times in the past always enjoyed it. Revisited yesterday. Dumplings were so amazing. The spring rolls were fresh and crispy. And the. Pa Thai wasn't dry and tasted delicious. Always clean and fresh. read more

I was a bit disappointed to be honest. The interior was clean. The food didn't take long to prepare. (I had ordered through Yelp and went in for a pick up.) When it was time to finally eat, the food was bland. I ordered the wonton soup and almond chicken. The wonton soup broth was fine. It didn't really taste like much of anything? The almond chicken? Tasted like generic breaded chicken with a mediocre almond sauce. Just not my jam. I might give this place a second chance and try something different, but my first impression was not promising. read more

Happy Wok - Almond Boneless Chicken...the best around - Chinese Near Me - Livonia, Michigan

Last 3 times I ate from got sicker than a dog will never go there again. Went to pay for food which they hadn't even started cooking it after calling it in 15 minutes earlier, and when food was ready she wanted me to pay again, which new person said I already paid for it. Never again read more

I want to give this 5 stars because the food was so fresh and had really good flavor. We had Szechuan chicken, vegetable delight, and sweet and sour chicken. The vegetable fried rice was really good. It's just that the amount of oil soaked in the chicken and egg roll was way too much. I used about 6 paper towels to squeeze as much out as I could. Maybe the fryer wasn't hot enough? We will order from here again and see how it goes with the oil next time! read more

No. Just no. I've eaten a lot of Chinese food over the years. And I've had a lot of average Chinese food over those years. Happy Wok is slightly below average. There was nothing that we enjoyed about our meal. We had the almond chicken and the sweet and sour chicken. We will not return. read more

Over spiced. Pad Thai was dry. Couldn't eat it. Owner would do nothing about it. First and last time I will order from there.

Great food and friendly service!! I wish that they had dine in as an option... we've gotten takeout about 2-3 times a month for the last year. read more

Amazing amount of delicious food at the best lunch combo price around. I have finally found a great carry-out place that's close to my house! I had Kung Pao chicken with fried rice and an egg roll. It was good to the last bite! Looking forward to trying it again in the near future! read more

Everyone's back to normalbut this place, you have to stand in tiny vestibule area to wait for your food, and if oneis in there, you stand outside in the rain or have Togo to your car, I'll go somewhere else, from now on! read more

Huge portions of good food delivered quickly and with a super friendly smile. I had a HUGE pad thai with chicken that was enough for three or four people. The quality of the ingredients and cooking was good, but it was fairly bland, though I requested medium. Crab rangoons (replacing shumai which was not available) were good and travelled well, which is not always the case. The delivery beat the expected time by about 20 minutes which was also appreciated, and ordering was easy via Yelp. I'm glad to have a new place that delivers for lunch! read more

I love little "hole in the wall" places that totally bring their A game and shame even the big boys. This place has some of the best Asian food I've had anywhere and it doesn't dent your wallet. They are also very fast. I think you can hear your order dropping in the wok right after your server goes into the kitchen. I'm a real fan of Udon noodles and these are simply the best. Long, thick and doughy. I am addicted to them! read more

Returned last Saturday for lunch. I decided to try the Moo Goo Gui Pan and my Mother chose the Baby Shrimp. Everything was cooked to order perfectly and served up hot and tasty. The chicken was plentiful, moist and tender with lots of mushrooms in the MGGP. Veggies were crisp and flavorful. The baby shrimp were tender with a crisp light batter. The quality is consistently good at this restaurant and I recommend that you try it. read more

Best Chinese in the area so far. A little greasy and I wish there were a little more veggies in the fried rice.

My family and I have been ordering from here for a few years now. It has stayed consistently good. The food is always fresh and the staff is friendly. read more

As far as takeout Chinese goes, this is top notch. The staff is prompt and usually has the meal ready faster than they say. Takeout Chinese is supposed to be hot, flavorful, and fast. They nail all three. read more

Ordered the seafood delight ( extra spicy) with brown rice. The brown rice was awful and there was literally zero spice in the land meal. Additionally, I found chunks of gummy transparent foreign objects in my meal. I really would not recommend. read more

After trying this once it's now my favorite Chinese place. Big portions - even the lunch portions are big enough to share. And the food quality is the best I've had. read more

When I first walked in the restaurant, a customer hugged me and said he loved me ?? I'm pretty sure he was under the influence. It was the weirdest takeout experience of my life. THIS IS A TRUE STORY. On the other note, food was good for the price, quick, and the workers are very polite! I would definitely recommend, but getting it delivered might be the better choice! read more

Have not been disappointed yet. Very reliable, fresh, satisfying. Veggies are fresh, still crispy. Food made super fast. All around FANTASTIC food. Number one choice for Chinese food. Only wish is that they delivered to Garden City or worked with Door Dash. read more
