“I was recommended this place by my sister and brother in law. It is definitely a go to and will definitely become a regular spot for us.
This is truly a restaurant that deserves to be busy every second they are open
I ordered a pickup order since it was getting a bit late into our day and we didn't want to have our whole night taken by eating out at a new spot, that was a mistake from the way the place looked the care and attention put into the decor of the place definitely made me realize we should have eaten there, but they were cleaning and definitely had a slow night. When we arrived they started cooking our food which is amazing still nice and hot when we got home 30 mins or so later
10/10 would recommend and will eat there again.“

“Hands down the best sushi I’ve ever had. Every single visit has been phenomenal. Tenji Sushi is moving locations, and I fully plan to support them through the end of May at their current spot — then patiently (and excitedly) wait for the new location to open. Please go support them if you haven’t already. Amazing food, amazing people, and an experience that keeps you coming back.“

“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?

“THE BEST!!! I absolutely love this place! The food and service is equally fabulous. Everything is so fresh and delicious.Great prices good environment. I can safely say this is a wonderful hidden gem. If you are going to try the crab boil, they are some of the best I've ever had honestly. Between the sauce, the freshness of the crab and the freshness of the corn and other ingredients It is just superior.“

“The surface was great and it was nice and calm in the restaurant not really busy. Parking is difficult to find the food was good. We ordered the J Lo, Sunday morning roll, calamari, popcorn chicken and a spicy tuna roll. The calamari was kind of disappointing. It’s pricey and there’s not that many and it’s supposed to be an appetizer there just wasn’t enough for everyone at the table to enjoy. The table was small too. We got a table for four but the plates were so big it took up so much space and the table was so small It just couldn’t handle all of the food.“

“Sea Bass seemed to have been frozen, watery with no flavor, service poor, (attutude) and we were 2 of 10 folks there. Pot stickers were very good, however presentation was sloppy and server kept forgetting our requests. Doubtful we will return. So disappointing as we used to love dining there. * Restrooms were dirty and dark... ?♀️“

“New restaurant to the area and we are so excited! Food was outstanding, staff was friendly and place was clean and comfortable. My husband had the spicy chicken and it was awesome. I had the steak and it was perfectly prepared. Veggies were not mushy and very flavorful. The fried rice was delicious as well. We also shared the crab Rangoon and they were probably the best I’ve ever had. We have been looking for a local place like this…so thank you and welcome!!“
