“I work nearby and come often... not your average asian spot. Super fast take out, Very high quality ingredients - the meat tastes like meat! if you like to eat healthy, the vegetable portion is generous, fresh, and delicious. Enjoy the bean sprouts! The doneness of the veggies is perfect, still crisp yet cooked through. Sauce is on point, not overly sweet, but flavorful. Get the beef and broccoli shanghai noodle, it never disappoints.“

“I've been going here for years. I go there for the best tasting, best prepared food I've ever had. When I'm close to Anderson I stock up on their food. Their lunch menu is one of the best deals you can get.“

“The most authentic Sichuan cuisine in the city, as far as I know. Delicious non-Sichuan, believe it or not their Fried Rice is exceptional, and everything else is very good. Can’t recommend enough. We eat here regularly, and pass maybe 15 other Chinese restaurants on the way“

“This is our family’s favorite Chinese take out spot in the area. Always consistent, quick, delicious food. Their wonton soup is very good. They have great prices and great service. We have tried many of their dishes and have never been disappointed.“

“Grand Oriental Chinese Restaurant— BaldWhiteGuyReviews 🧑🦲🍜 Time flies, kids forget passports, and dads get a rare day off — which I immediately spent doing what any responsible parent would do: drag my son to a new restaurant and then reward him with lunch. 😅 He forgot his passport (top secret co-op stuff, apparently), so we met halfway-ish and let Yelp play help find a new place to try. That’s how we found Grand Oriental — a big, festive palace of American-Chinese comfort food and decorative bravado Grand Oriental 📍4800 Fields Ertel Rd, Cincinnati. Parking & Entrance Parking: angled, on a slight hill, and perfect for anyone who enjoys a little cardio while exiting their car. If you have equilibrium issues, bring a friend or a very dramatic cane. Walk the red carpet like you’re famous (or at least like you once were #Santa in the Christmas Program) and step into a dining room that screams “special occasion” louder than your drunk uncle at a wedding. 🎉✨ #WeSeeYou Decorations Huge space, lots of lanterns, and more faux-oriental flair than a Netflix period drama on a budget. The place looks like someone told Pinterest to go wild and then hired a very enthusiastic intern to execute it. If prom and homecoming had a love child, this would be the reception venue. Very Instagrammable — bring a filter and a dramatic pose. 📸🪩 They even have a golden throne #Seriously. The Wet Live Well They’ve got a big wet live well — yes, an actual aquarium of potential dinner guests. Do I think they fish out a crab and whisper “you’re up” before tossing him into a wok? Some call it fresh; others call it barbaric reality TV for crustaceans. Either way, the seafood looks like it just finished updating its LinkedIn. 🦀🐟😬 #FearFactor Bathroom Report Bathroom: shockingly clean and tastefully decorated. If the restroom is this tidy, you know the kitchen isn’t hiding any skeletons — just maybe a very well-behaved crab. 🚽✨ What We Ate 🍜 * Appetizer: Crab Rangoon — $6.99 Warm, creamy, and dangerously addictive. Came with two mystery sauces: one was sweet (dessert-adjacent and delightful), the other had a wasabi vibe that made my face do a small, respectful salute. I’m still not sure if the second sauce was wasabi or a tiny jar of regret, but it worked. 😋🔥 It was a surprise, no mention of sauces on the menu. (That I could find anyway). * Half-ling’s Meal: Sweet & Sour Chicken with Fried Rice — $11.99 Predictable in the best way. Comfort food for people who like their food to behave itself. The fried rice, however, was quietly excellent — the unsung hero of the table. 🍚👍 * My Choice: Hunan Beef with Fried Rice — $12.99 Hunan Beef is my yardstick. This one had a pleasant kick that made my nose run like it had opinions. Local Hunan still wins my heart #DragonInn, but this one is a solid contender. 🥩🌶️ Total Lunch Damage: $34.46 (waters included, because hydration is free and important) 💸 Final Thoughts (and the part where I pretend to be impartial) The Grand Oriental is a great spot for a special lunch or to impress guests who like their ambiance with a side of theatrical lighting. Staff were friendly and fast — service points for speed and smiles. Food was solid, comforting, and exactly what you expect from a good American-Chinese joint: familiar, warm, and occasionally surprising (looking at you, mystery sauce). #HotHot Final Score: 3 out of 5 Bald Heads 🧑🦲🧑🦲🧑🦲 Why I docked two Bald Heads: * Minus one for predictably (Boring) American-Chinese flavors — tasty, but not revolutionary. * Minus one for price — lunch felt a tad steep. Maybe you’re paying extra for the live well’s real estate and the decorative chandelier that’s clearly on a #FingerHut payment plan. 🧾💡#CheapOldMan Would I go back? Sure — for a special night, a prom afterparty, or if my son forgets something else important. Would I drive across town just for their Hunan? Not this time. 👎 Have you been here?

“Ahhhh the Chinese Imperial Inn... Where do I even start with you? The portion sizes, the chill vibes, the kind family running the show... Coming here, I understand that running a restaurant isn't just about the food. It's about the community you foster around it. Entering my final year of school, I know that when I eventually leave this city, I will remember this restaurant as the family I never had...“

“Best Chinese I’ve had east of Mariemont! The fried rice was buttery and delicious, chicken eggrolls was soft but crunchy in the right way, and the General Tso’s chicken was delicious. Quick and easy service and an awesome price, all for $10!“

“This is a classic family-run Chinese restaurant. It is primarily for take-out, as accommodations for dining in are rather sparse, and their website does not show an option for delivery... but everything that I have ordered there has been good - I particularly enjoy their hot and sour soup.“

“Not all Chinese restaurants are the same. And each one has its specialities. This one does a very good job in what they specialize, which is Guangdong/Shanghai style dish. What that means is that their speciality is not Sichuanese. So if you go there, you should order Guangdong/Shanghai food not Sichuanese. They do a phenomenal job with that dish.
You should get:
- Shanghai Style Eggplants
- Moo Goo Gai
- Sizzling Seafood Combination
(Any seafood menu was good from my experience)
These are not the best:
- Mapa Tofu or Double Cooked Pork (they are Sichuanese dish)“

“We tried this for the first time on Christmas. While the wait was long, the food was amazing. Ordered the orange chicken platter with rice as well as the sesame chicken. Both sauces tasted great with just the right amount of spice level. I didn’t get any nasty pieces in the chicken which is kind of rare with Chinese food and I loved the crispy pieces. Prices were good as well. Will be back!“

“I literally LOVE this place. My fave & go to Chinese place. Only reason I gave service 4/5 starts is because the time they close is different everywhere listed!!! Online it says 8, but I think their in-store pamphlet menu says 7:30. I also wish they stayed open later. :(“

“Ordered a large carryout for around 20 people on a Friday night and they were easily able to accommodate. Jason was super helpful and even let me know when I had ordered too much food and fixed my order, which turned out to be the proper amount. He even threw in some Crab Rangoon on the house. I'll add this place to our usual rotation when I need to feed the staff. 👍“

“This place has excellent food. It is very clean. The chicken is beautiful white meat. I absolutely love their chow mein and chop suey. My 10-year-old son who doesn't even like Chinese food loves this place. He said I would rate this place a 4.8“

“Don’t listen to the bad reviews! This place is great quality and delicious! The General Tso’s chicken is soooo good! The sauce is perfection and the broccoli is never overcooked. Be sure to get it spicy for the best flavor. I love Magic Wok!“
