Reviews for Joyful House in Saline, MI
We have lived in Saline for over 20 years and have been ordering from Joyful House regularly for two decades. The owner is... courteous and the food is delicious. We have never been disappointed in anything we've ordered. I am so surprised to see anynegative reviews at all. We have tried the other Chinese restaurants in Saline and Ann Arbor, and Joyful House is our favorite! Read more
Don't waste your time. I walked in to order lunch and was told by an employee that they were too busy to take my order. Then she... said the same thing to a person trying to call in an order. Then she just hung up. Rude employees! Oh, and they don't want orneed your business! Go somewhere else! Read more
Joyful has been an awesome restaurant in this community for as long as I can remember. Good food, great service, and reasonably... priced. Portions are always MASSIVE (in a good way.) I will never NOT suggest Joyful House when people ask about good Chinesefood. I'm convinced that any negative review is either the result of an "off day" or it was left by indivuals who are generallyunhappy to begin with. There's a reason these guys have been around for so long. Read more
Joyful House provided a great all-around meal. Ignore the other recent reviews, they seem to have had their panties in a bunch.... Meat and vegetables were cooked to perfection, and the staff were generous and friendly! Read more
Went for first time and ordered General Tso Chicken and Kung Pao beef. Cost was over 27.00 and a 5.00 tip. Sorry to say it was... the worst I have ever had.(hubby agreed) The chicken looked and tasted burnt. I could not even see any chicken when I bit intoit. Perhaps just a fluke, but I will never go back. Beef was no better. Read more
This is absolutely the best Chinese restaurant in saline. The other two are like fast food in comparison. I don't live in town... but I go out of my way to get food from JH rather than just about any other source south of Ann Arbor. You can immediately tellthe ingredients are good and their sauces are unique. The egg rolls are decent (not my favorite, but I'd call them aboveaverage). Every time I take someone here, they always tell me, "whoa this is the best [insert item here] that I've had in awhile!" I say yes that's why we go here LOL I appreciate the quality they have and hope they never start using cheaperingredients in the future. Read more
Joyful House is hands down the best Chinese place in Saline. I've eaten at a few places around town and this one beats them all.... Best of all, the food is consistent. I've eaten here at least a dozen times and the food is always delicious. I remember JoyfulHouse when it was a larger restaurant, complete with a buffet. The restaurant has since downsized, with a fair number of tablesand a pleasant eating environment. Most tables are set for two, and as a family of seven we do have to combine some tables butit isn't too much of an issue. My go-to dish is chicken lo mein, but I'll often get chicken with mixed vegetables as well. Ijudge every place by how well they make these two dishes, and Joyful House really nails both. The lo mein always has tenderchicken with the perfect amount of flavor; never too salty or too bland. The chicken with mixed vegetables has the perfectvariety of vegetables, and the sauce is outstanding. The rice is always perfectly cooked as well. Tonight I ordered a lo meinwith hot-and-sour soup, fried pork dumplings and crab rangoons. Everything was delicious, and for around $25, it was a greatmeal. I've yet to find a restaurant in Saline or even Ann Arbor that makes better Chinese than Joyful House. I'm confident insaying that no matter what you order, you'll enjoy. Read more
The rice for my chicken fried rice was ridiculously dry, And had peas. Also when I called for a refund they told me to order... something else instead of just giving me my money back I will not be back. Read more
