Despite the food being hot and the service being fast, the food wasn't very good. The rice was almost flavorless and there were a bunch of hard pieces.. the chicken was so hot that the sauce didn't stick and was all watery at the bottom of the container. The crab ragoons had no sweetness to them at all and were a bit too salty. Overall I was disappointed.. especially after spending almost $40. Better off going to the mall food court. read more

Ocean city restaurant I really wanted his place to be good. I've lived in Saginaw for about 20 years of my life and we make some good Chinese food. I've had the best Chinese food. Bar none. Sadly this place did not measure up. Let's us start with the order. I did not order the combo, yet they gave me the combo. I did not want the plain fried rice and the egg roll. FYI, if you get the combo, you get less food. I had the "Pepper Steak" and the "Szechuan Chicken". Those are Chinese restaurants claim to fame dishes. If those two dishes are not good then the rest is history. The pepper steak was good. Tasted like buffet style. The Szechuan Chicken was off. Looks like they lost the recipe for the sauce. Lastly was the egg roll. No. Just bad. The vegetables tasted overdue. Too much bean sprout. Bean sprout goes bad. Plus, the dipping sauce is too small to fit an egg roll. Sad. My mother and wife could make better egg rolls. I see a lot of customers. It's sad they don't know what good Chinese food is. Hit up "China 1" in hazel park, MI for excellent Real Chinese food. Also try "Dragon Palace" in Vassar, MI for great Real Chinese food. Recommended read more

I love going there because they have a in house made plum sauce that I just love with my fried shrimp and when they had Egg Rolls with bean sprouts. Last time they were cabbage which taste awful. Also the rolls they serve, we always take home a half dozen. Fried rice is hit and miss, not sure why. read more

The prices were so outrageous but the portions were monstrous. I just couldn't see paying 17, $18 for Mushu vegetables, which is mostly cabbage and sprouts. The food was pretty good, but nothing like it used to be. read more

I had lived in the neighborhood a few blocks from this place 25 years ago. It was our favorite go to Chinese resturant. I came back to see if it was still there when back in Pontiac on business. The staff are friendly. The food was good. It was not the exceptional food as I remember. The place ( building, parking, and restaurant ) have aged with less than steller upkeep. The back booths are stacked with supplies. Back in the day every seat would be occupied. I would go back. It is not what it was. read more

I always have a great experience when ordering carryout from this place. Kids typically want Chinese food as their dinner of choice for birthdays and Ocean City is a go-to spot for my family. read more

Ocean City food is great. Always consistent. I drive past 3 other Chinese restaurants to get here. It's been a great place for years.

I ordered some won ton soup (large on yesterday, and it smelled and tasted sour. I haven't any problems or issues with Ocean City food, but yesterday wasn't a good day for the soup. I wasn't feeling well, and thought that I would get some soup, but to my disappointment, it was not good at (smelled like vinegar and sour won ton. Very disappointed. read more

Best lo Mein ever. Good Chinese shrimp. Good egg rolls. Predictable, reliable. 20-minute takeout.

It's been over 20 years since I've eaten at this restaurant and I was pleasantly surprised that nothing has changed. Staff were super friendly , and the food was delicious. Huge servings, well prepared. I had the almond chicken and it was the best I've had in a while. Ambiance- well, it's a Chinese restaurant that has been around for a long time and does mostly take out. We were the only group of diners, but when the food and service are that good ambiance doesn't matter. My only complaint is that I live over an hour away so it will be a while before I can eat here again. read more

Food choices is ok Service was slow Restroom was dirty The waiteresses was ok Interior design could have been done better read more

I have been going here for 34 years and their Almond Boneless Chicken is the best! Occasionally they get some tough chicken and it's very disappointing so I really suggest they think about a better chicken provider.Everything I have had there is so good. The egg rolls and wonton soup are delicious. I highly recommend this place to everyone because there are so many people that have no idea what good Chinese food tastes like. Places they say are good are awful! The prices here are so reasonable and the service is always good. The restaurant updated their floors but they really need to update the whole decor, inside and out. The food does make up for it!! read more

Consistently good. Large quantities for price. Variety in menu. Dining room back open but very dated. I always get carry out. Order is accurate and fast. read more

Love this place. I'm partial to the Almond Boneless Chicken. I've been getting carryout since the lockdown. I hope one day the renovations are done and I can done in! The staff is very nice and helpful. Definitely a great place for the best ABC around. read more

Ocean City Restaurant - Almond Boneless Chicken - Chinese Near Me - Pontiac, Michigan

Our favorite local-to-us place. The sweet and sour pork is my personal favorite, and is the style I grew up with - not red sauce. We also really enjoy their egg drop soup, wonton soup, and egg rolls read more

Still hands-down the best Chinese since I moved here from Ohio more than 20 years ago. The strip mall it's in is getting run down, and Ocean City is tucked into a corner, but it's worth seeking out. They also recently renovated the dining room, so it looks great in there! Vegetables in their dishes are always fresh (unlike a certain Chinese place on M-59 and Williams Lake Rd) and abundant. Owners recognize regulars by name. My faves are sweet and sour chicken, Mongolian beef and the Sizzling Rice Soup. Dine in or carry out - you can't go wrong. read more

Ocean City Restaurant - Sweet & Sour Chicken - Chinese Near Me - Pontiac, Michigan

Not so good taste. Shrimp were soggy. Egg foo yong was good. The flavor is not the same.

One of my favorite Chinese food places, the shrimp fried rice is everything! The shrimp are a nice size and the rice taste amazing - not mushy at all but not too single either. Egg foo young patties are ok. The service is fast and nice, I've never dealt with a bad attitude here. Stop in for Carry out or have a sit down! I've never had anything else so please take note of that! Parking is no issue read more

Their workers are thieves, a young lady who was taking orders and payment stole my mother credit card number and charged $800 dollars on it. My mother bank alerted her the next day. if it wasn't for the alert my mothe wouldn't have kno anything. So I called the owner to rep this matter and the only this she could say was she trusted her worker and she would never do anything like that, not I'll investigate or anything. this place has been in a community that I was born and raised in and this is what happened when we spend our hard earn money read more

I was so delighted to find this little gem, a mile and a half of my house. Located in the strip mall so it first I was a little bit suspicious but once I got the food home it was so tasty and yummy. It is takeout only at this point there is no ambience. And the service was great. read more

If I could I'll go get Almond Chicken for me and Sesame Chicken for the little kids on god

This is a family favorite and a local favorite. We love Ocean City and we are never disappointed in our food the servings or the quality. If you are looking for traditional flavorful Chinese food this is your spot. read more

I enjoyed their food, but recently I ordered and paid on the phone, my co-worker also ordered food and was going to pick up for both of us. They charged me 3.00 extra for paying in advanced, over the phone. That was a bit much, so I will find another place. read more

Literally the best chinese food in the area. Usually order with doordash, I've never ordered something I didnt like. read more

Can't wait until Ocean City reopens! This has been a family favorite for more than 25 years! Best Almond Chicken and Pressed Duck among other specialties. Dinners come with spring rolls and fried rice. Hurry back! read more

I haven't eaten here for 4 or 5 years, because I didn't think the food was very good. But I have several friends who like it so I thought I would give it another chance. Very disappointing. One dish I ordered to be hot -- on a scale of mild, medium, hot, or extra hot -- and it was essentially tasteless. There was no flavor, and no spiciness. Another dish I ordered was also just flat bland. They clearly have a cook, not a chef, and their food was definitely NOT worth what I paid for it. read more

I've been coming to this place for thirty years. It is the best Chinese I've found. Its a 45 minute drive for me, but worth it!!!

There is nothing bad to say about this place. The takeout is good. I just wish the dining room would open again. The portions are crazy huge, and the prices are super low. I actually get 2-3 meals and I eat big lol. You will not be disappointed. read more

The worst Chinese food. I've tried this place multiple times to make sure, but I have to say it is the worst Chinese restaurant I've ever experienced. They add water to stretch the sauces...probably to make more dishes and the food becomes soggy and without any flavor. It's really surprising and disappointing. The frying oil is not changed out/cleaned enough because the taste is very strong and smells on the food- it's not normal. Some chicken is too tough to chew while others will fall apart soggy in the same dish. I've tried the sesame chicken, orange chicken and sweet and sour dishes on multiple occasions just to make sure and be fair, and every time it was gross. It's sad that they serve this to people, no one should have to eat watered down and soggy bland food. Like literally wet, not coated in a sauce normally. Please just go somewhere else, you'll save your appetite and disappointment. Literally the worse Chinese food ever. read more

So glad this place is open again. I still cannot rave about the egg rolls and egg drop soup enough. I recently tried the pork egg foo young combo which is a must have. read more

I can't rave about Ocean City enough! Fresh, delicious, very generous portions, very tasty, excellent service! You need to go there!

I've been eating Chinese from here for nearly 30 years. Food is always good and the family that owns the place are always friendly and social. The General Tso's chicken (extra spicy) is different than any other restaurant. No breading whatsoever. Chicken tossed with cornstarch and deep fried before sauce added. Really great. Very good ABC also. AND generous portions. Recommend these folks highly. read more

Great food and the serving size is for sure a later on meal or tomorrow for lunch. Very nice and quick on the service.

My favorite Chinese restaurant, they're food is hands down the best in town! I've been coming here since I was a teenager and it's worth it every time. The owners and workers are friendly and great. Try the sweet and sour chicken, almond boneless chicken and fried rice! read more

We have enjoyed their Cuisine for decades. Their sweet and sour is the best. I did over 800,000 miles trucking this country and never found any as good as here. The won ton soup is exquisite. Bread rolls are fresh and sweet. Every visit back to Michigan we make a point to eat here with friends and relatives. Please, don't ever change. read more

Ocean City Restaurant - My sweet and sour chicken. Excellent! - Chinese Near Me - Pontiac, Michigan

Dont eat here the prices are outrageous. I just paid 15 dollars for two egg rolls and a pint of chicken fried rice. First of all i could of got a combo for that price. That is ridiculous. read more

I have to say I've only eaten here a handful of times. I've lived in the area for a while now. I tried here tonight after seeing something really unsavory about my former favorite Chinese restaurant (god bless them, they're still great people). I had the vegetable fried rice and a crab rangoon. The crab rangoon actually has a good amount of filling AND visible crab meat, something I've not seen in rangoon in a LONG time anywhere in the Metro that I've tried. The vegetable fried rice had a good mix of veggies and great flavor, I was pleasantly surprised because I wasn't expecting much out of something so simple. Marked down one star simply because the egg roll wrapper didn't taste fresh, not sure if it was the oil, wrapper, or their storage method. My fiancé seemed to think they were alright though because he seems to have eaten all 4 of them read more

The absolute best Chinese. Egg rolls are the best, very fresh food, quick pickups. Not very close to home but definitely with the long drive. Been going here for more than 20 years read more

This place is our go to when we crave Chinese food. The service is so friendly and they treat you BETTER than family! Stop reading and get going! read more

I remember an old joke. It is about a wealthy octogenarian that gets married to a beautiful 20 year old girl. On the wedding night, he manages to consummate the marriage seven times. She is amazed. She says "I was thrilled at once, surprised at twice, but seven times is amazing! You were wonderful!" He says "Seven times?" She replies "Yes darling, at 84 years old, you managed seven times!" He replies sheepishly "You know, when you get old, you forget." Well I went back to Ocean City when we were looking for something to eat and happened to be in the area. I had forgotten how bad this place really was. The food had almost no taste, and the preparation was third rate. Let me give you some specifics. The Won ton Soup had unfilled chewy gluey unfilled noodles. The broth was flavorless. The hard noodles served with the soup were distinctly greasy as if the oil in their fryer was not hot enough. They tasted bitter. The egg rolls was similarly greasy and fairly tasteless. We were served dinner rolls and margarine. I haven't seen this since the '60's. The Egg Foo Yeong I ordered came chewy and tough and it was drenched in thick unflavored brown floury sauce. I ladled chili oil (la yu) over it to try and make it taste like something. But it still was a disaster. My lunch partner had General Tso's Chicken and he left most of it over because he said it tasted like paste. Joy Geen. read more
