I've been coming here for the past 20 years. It's probably the only Chinese Restaurant I like coming to. The food is decent and the people are good too. The building looks like an old Taco Bell Restaurant....LOL.

They have good food at good prices. I don't get to eat there a lot because it's a ways away from where I live. We usually get it to go.

So my husband decided to take me here because it was his favorite restaurant from his childhood, he still remembers when the soup was free ?Anyways food is good, price is ok, the restaurant look clean, and it’s nice to know they also have a drive-thru ?

Easily the worst sesame chicken I've ever had. The majority went in the trash.

It was really expensive and it tasted and smelled horrible, the rice looked and tasted old and it barely had any seasoning other than garlic, and also got the wings and the chicken tasted bad, they weren’t even crispy I do not recommend this place. Really expensive for such low quality

The food was poorly packaged and the pork was interesting to say the least. It was unappetizing and not worth eating.

Disrespectful staff and terrible food quality.My family and I ordered a bunch of food as egg drop soup being one of them. My impression of egg drop soup as I’ve ate at many different Chinese restaurants and never once had peas cabbage carrots and a bunch of other odd stuff in egg drop soup. When we brought the food home never got the chance to eat it as there was a nat floating at the surface. Called them, was put on “hold”; well the phone was down as I heard people talk about orders and stuff. So I drove there because they forgot I was on the phone, they proceeded to make me a new one. Got home and realized what was in it and that this wasn’t egg drop soup. So I called them and the lady was super disrespectful, I thought they gave me the wrong soup and she said they only have 2 different types of soups. Lie they have 3. So I told her I would like my money back, the website didn’t mention all these different ingredients as they should incase someone is allergic. She then told me that they are closing to call back tomorrow for a refund. My fiancé at that point was irritated because we’ve been up there multiple times and have spent a lot of money to not eat it. So we went there and the lady offered us a different type of soup. We didn’t like any other ones and to that point we were just fed up, so we told tell them we want our refund. They rejected and said no refund and that only style of egg drop soup made is the one they have. No other styles. I usually don’t give bad reviews but this one tops the cake. Super disappointed and will never come back here again! 0 stars!

Bad food, had fried rice that is not fried but just soy sauce stir into white rice and being passed off as fried rice. Even that fried rice was sitting in for hours and food was cold and food was served in 2 mins after ordering. Fastest food i ever received even compared with McD and KFC. This tells me the Chef is lazy to not cook and pre cooks everything. Owner should be held responsible. Do NOT recommend Great Wall more like Great SCAM !!!

Worst chicken fried rice I’ve ever had. Every piece of chicken was hard and dry, like it was sitting there for hours after being overcooked. DO NOT RECOMMEND!

Wife decided to give this place another shot I used to love their low mein. Pulled up to the place as usual parking only on west side of parking lot, walked in to find only 4 tables to sit at. Menu inside is pretty confusing to read they've added things and taken things away so who knows. Wife wants orange chicken, kids want sweet and sour chicken, and I got the Great Wall Low Mein I'm feeling pretty good ordered crab Rangoon a large soda and some waters (refills are not free they are 75¢). Sit down wait a short while 5-10min food is ready nice lady that I ordered from brings food to table is great! Now the food all steaming hot awesome, flavor is all wack sweet and sour chicken was ate but not great, Low Mein was edible, crab Rangoon was not good, and lastly was the wife's orange chicken flavor was not orange at all was more of a general Tso chicken with dry chicken pieces that were very hard and not fresh. $52 is what I paid I'd say take your money elsewhere and if you don't want to drive somewhere else for Chinese then don't come here grocery store frozen Chinese is better than this and that stuff sucks. Food needs to be reworked and recipes need to be changed, if you've had a different experience please let me know but we will never eat here again. I would rather eat dog food than come back here.

Quite possibly the worst food I’ve ever eaten. Everything I ordered was overcooked, bland and the fried items were dripping with old grease. Even the rangoons were awful, so chewy I could barely tear them apart, with a dime sized amount of filling. And ridiculously overpriced for what you get. 0/10, do not recommend.
