This was just straight up bad food. No flavor, soggy, and veggies that looked like they’d gone bad. Such a disappointment.

I generally get the same thing every time and I'm happy with it , that being chicken on a stick (aka chicken kabob ) , steamed white rice and some of their tasty homemade gravy on top of the rice , but they bumped up the price on the food lately which didn't please me too much , but , you know , maybe they had to

Here in San Diego you really do not have to travel that far to see as much as San Diego's downtown area has to offer. I myself have just become mobile as to I have gained the access to a mobile wheelchair as to at this time I am one of the United States disabled citizens.

Well.... It is what it is. The service is way off. The simple fact I had to defend my stance with my drink after spending $32 on my meal was enough for me to rate this establishment 2 ⭐. The food isn't bad but it's not great either, the portions are fine but pretty small considering the competition. When my Dr. Pepper didn't taste like Dr. Pepper after only 1 sip they tried to make me purchase a new fountain drink. Which I can kinda understand.... But BECAUSE I did tip them I felt that I should be able to get the drink I'm going to drink with my meal. The lady behind the counter literally poured herself a drink from the Dr Pepper fountain tap and proclaimed "this is DEFINITELY Dr. Pepper"OoooooookayBut it doesn't taste like it to ME!Anyways.... I got my replacement Coke which is commendable but all those extras.... Meh....I didn't need.

It's Great Wall Express. Set your expectations appropriately and you won't be disappointed. Better than Panda, maybe slightly worse than Pickup Stix. Prices are pretty good for the area it's in.Orange chicken was great, as was the mushroom chicken. Lo mein was mediocre. I definitely plan to go here again.

Dietary restrictions: Cross contamination (mixing of different cooked food items) seems inevitable. If you have a serious food allergy, maybe don't eat here.

When you first walk in, you smell the great aroma of Chinese food. But when you finally get in there, it’s a whole different experience. I ordered four plates for my family, it was a mix of things. In total it was around $60, which I can say is outrageous for what they gave me. I wanted to try the fish but there were no more out. I asked if they were making anymore, and she started to yell “NO NO NO.” She said, “the man is tired.” Isn’t that your job to cook? I thought maybe she has had a bad day, so I still gave her a chance. Anyways, fast forward to when I get home, I check out the food. Looks decent, but when you actually try it, yeah no. My friend shared a piece of fish with me, tasted very bland, only tasted the batter. It was very oily, and was disgusting. It tasted like frozen fish you can get out of the Walmart frozen aisle. I then tried the rest of my food. I tried the chicken wings, again, tasted bland and only the batter/oil, disgusting. Then here comes the rice and noodles. Rice was bland, noodles were semi good. The only thing that I can actually 100% say had some flavor were the noodles. Plates consisted mainly of side dishes (rice and noodles), and there were barely any meat/fish. 1/10 don’t recommend going here at all.Customer Service - 0/10Food - 1/10Atmosphere 3/10

It's was decent, rice was flavorless but the orange chicken I got was fine, tasted like any other place, food wasn't fresh and hot but even so I enjoyed it for the most part, I'll be returning to try other items they have and see how they hold up.

I don't know who they hired to give 4 star reviews my experience was awful. The 4 pieces of chicken special for 4.99 turned out to cost me 14.99 off my debit card. They are scammers. Never

This place has good prices but the food is definitely sub par. The rice taste burnt and rhe cow main has some hard dried noodles in it. The orange chicken feels like it doesn't have chicken in it. It feels like way too much
