Livonia’s Chinese food scene is defined by its blend of long-lasting family businesses, hard-won Midwestern work ethic, and the kind of neighborly spirit that transforms unfamiliar faces into regulars.
Whether it’s Friday takeout, family dinners, or big buffet nights out, these kitchens deliver comfort and delight.
1. Golden Chopsticks
A Livonia legend for more than 25 years, Golden Chopsticks feels like a second home to its many fans. Inside, the décor is classic with a red-and-gold glow, setting the stage for plates of crispy sesame chicken, tender beef broccoli, and hot egg rolls bursting with flavor.
The staff runs at an efficient clip but remember regulars, birthdays, and favorite spice levels.
Lunch specials deliver extra value, and family-style dinners are always sharing feasts.
2. China House
China House may look modest from the street, but it’s packed with flavor and warmth.
The kitchen does the basics to perfection: rich, savory egg drop soup, delicate potstickers, and lo mein that never disappoints.
They shine with friendly, flexible service and portions that ensure you’ll have leftovers for lunch.
3. Yen King
Known for its generous servings and consistently delicious takeout, Yen King keeps a loyal following coming back for classics like Mongolian beef, sweet and sour chicken, and Szechuan tofu.
The lunch buffet is a favorite for workers on break, and everything is packed up carefully for home meals.
Staff are always ready to suggest a dish for newcomers or whip up an off-menu family favorite on request.
4. Panda Express
For quick, affordable dinners and weekday lunches, Panda delivers Livonia’s families fast, familiar helpings of chow mein, kung pao, and beef broccoli.
The drive-thru is busy but always well-organized, and the always-cheerful staff add those little extras that keep people coming back.
5. House of Lo
A newer addition, House of Lo brings fusion East Asian options—pan-fried noodles, spicy basil chicken, and street-food appetizers—served in a bright, modern space.
The boba tea counter, fresh summer rolls, and inventive stir-fry veggie options make it a hit with the city’s students and younger couples.
