More of a Chinese restaurant than a Polynesian one, Chin's Chop Suey was opened in 1955 by Marvin Chin, who opened the very Polynesian Chin Tiki in Detroit 12 years later -- Chin Tiki closed in 1980.
Marvin's son Marlon nows owns and operates Chin's in Livonia, and some of the tiki decor from Chin Tiki has been relocated here.
*NOTE: Uncle and son team, Marlon and Steven have announced that the restaurant will close at the end of April 2025. The restaurant will be kept intact, but not open for business.
