From coneys to Cantonese fried shrimp, there’s something for everyone. Read on for our Top 5 Places to Eat in Westland:

Adam's Family Restaurant | 4675 S. Middlebelt Rd., Westland

With a variety of reasonably priced meals, this restaurant is great for families. Homemade soups, sandwiches made with fresh, roasted meats, and chili cheese fries —the largest serving in town and only $3.49— are just a few of their specialties. And breakfast is served all day.

Bates Burgers | 33406 5 Mile Rd., Livonia 

Open since 1959, this diner is widely considered a local landmark. In addition to hamburgers, cheeseburgers and chiliburgers, the menu features fries, coneys, and soups (which vary depending on the day). Call ahead for carry-out.

China Gate | 5824 N. Wayne Rd., Westland

Patrons frequently call the fare at this family-owned carry-out restaurant the best Chinese food they’ve ever had. In fact, China Gate has a 5-star rating on Facebook. Its menu has more than 60 dishes, but the fried dumplings are especially popular.

Mr. Mike's Grill | 6047 N. Wayne Rd., Westland

This restaurant is known for home-cooked style meals made using the freshest ingredients. Its prime rib dinners (available on weekends) are surefire crowd-pleasers, and it even has an entire menu of gluten-free dishes.

Vizzy's Pizza Place | 35925 Ford Rd., Westland

The dough for this restaurant’s pizzas is made fresh daily, the sauce is made from vine-ripened tomatoes, and the cheese is hand-shredded. Have a pie delivered to your doorstep starting at 10:30 a.m. or have an entire meal catered by Vizzy’s anytime— 24 hours a day, seven days a week. (All that’s required is a 12-hour notice.)
