“A cute and friendly restaurant just off of 747 that is definitely worth a stop. The chicken wings were SO juicy and they had the perfect crunch!🤩 The seasoning in the batter was lovely and my husband and I didn't need any sauce, highly recommend. His chicken teriyaki was also rather juicy for white meat and they had a nice smokey flavor, so he was very happy.😊 I had the chicken Pad Thai and each little flavor would sneak up on me while I ate. Fantastically balanced all the way through and I even dug into the middle of the dish and still could find peanuts!🥜
Do yourself a favor.
Stop by, and grab some grub!😋“

“This place has the best Mapo fried tofu. I'm addicted to this dish! Place is super clean and owner is so nice and cooks everything to order. If busy you will wait a little bit but it's so worth it. My other favorite dish is the tofu and egg plant. We also just recently tried the vegetables and fried rice and it was delicious. If you're vegan or just like some good Oriental food you must give this place a try. 🩷“

“I always have a good experience with Panda, the food is always good, and the service is always top notch. I really appreciate Lana (I saw her name tag), she seems to go the extra mile to make sure that my food is good. She's very pleasant as well, not to take away from the other members. I will continue to support this restaurant.“

“Chanced on this true gem last Friday with my kids. I did not have much expectations but was throughly blown away by the authenticity and quality of the food. I have not had a bowl of Wonton Noodle Soup that good since relocated to the US. Quality is comparable to HK standards. My kids had Pad Thai and Shanghai Cashew Chicken, they all loved their meals. This is truly a hole in the wall kind of restaurant, nothing fancy but pure good food. Thank you for making my day and we will be back real soon.“

“This is the best Chinese restaurant I've been to in the US. I haven't spent too much time in NYC, so I cannot compare to those, but I spent many years in SF and LA and have not had better than Sichuan Chili.
I no longer live in Cincinnati, unfortunately, but I am in town maybe one week per year and make it a point to visit Sichuan Chili multiple times. I will even freeze it and bring it home to Texas, where the Chinese food by me is mediocre at best.
We have several go-tos (not in any particular order):
Mapo tofu - lots of heat, but great flavor. Big and bold.
Hot pepper chicken - this stir fried dish of jalapenos and chicken is excellent. There are times the head is overwhelming, but it also is loaded with flavor. It is not just a spice bomb.
Hot and sour soup - my kids like all hot and sour soup, but I am yet to find one as good as the one from Sichuan Chili. It is very black peppery, but in a good way. It tastes different than any other hot and sour soup I've eaten.
Chinese style kung pao - this is different than regular kung pao - lots of ginger, different vegetables than the US version. I am a huge fan.
Green beans - these are excellent. Smoky, flavorful. My middle loves szechuan green beans and these are extremely good.
Eggplant in garlic sauce - this isn't necessarily better than most Chinese places, but it's good. They have 2-3 versions of egg plant.
Salt and pepper shrimp - vinegary and tangy. They come skin and tail on, but the deep fry makes them easy to eat whole.
The above are our normal go-tos. We've tried several other things over the years. Some have been hits. Some have been misses. The only thing I've eaten there that was truly bad were the salt and pepper ribs. Hard to describe why, but it was a total fail.
I assume many of the other reviews mention this, but there is an authentic menu and an American menu. We normally eat off the authentic, but the lunch specials are all off the American menu and I've tried a few. Even the American menu food is better than most Chinese restaurants.“

“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?

“My fiancé swears by Lulu's. She grew up in Glendale and the food is just as good as it's always been for her. We met and lived in NYC for 10 years before she brought me back to Ohio. I started working just around the corner from Lulu's and now I'm bring it home a few times a month so she can get that taste of nostalgia. Doesn't hurt that the food is comparable to NYC's Chinatown. Highly recommend.“

“I got carryout. Food and service was great. Directions to get there were terrible. Once I got there I felt it was easier to find if I went a different way. My phone map had me go thru a subdivision instead of over Winton Road. Good thing I knew a little bit about the area.“

“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)“

“I consider myself a Chinese/asian cuisine connoisseur and while this place has great options, there’s a few things I’d never order again that are typically favorites elsewhere.
General tsos chicken… phenomenal! Finally some spiciness! So many places claim they’re general to be spicy and it’s not, this has a decent kick and it’s full of flavor.
Bourbon chicken… yuck. It’s not great. Chicken is way over cooked, the flavor completely lacks. I love bourbon chicken, but not from here. It should be very moist and decadent and it’s not at all. I didn’t even waste my time eating the rest. Big disappointment.
Sesame chicken… yummy in my tummy. Crispy and full of flavor.
veg lo mein.. it’s not bad, but not spectacular. It’s your basic lo mein. Would be WAY better if
It’s hard baby corn.
Pork fried rice… no. Flavor is completely off and bland. The color is off. Just no thank you.
Spring rolls… also lacking. The flavor just isn’t there. It actually has an unpleasant after taste. I tried these on 3 different occasions, it was consistent each time with the same thoughts.
Egg rolls… fantastic! Which is funny, because I genuinely like spring rolls over egg rolls but these slap.
Crab rangoons… we goonin!!! They’re so
Good! So much flavor and crunch!
Hot and sour soup… sadly dissatisfied and disappointed. What a heart break. Flavor is not there, not very spicy. And there was not enough bamboo shoots and other typical foods that are in the soup.
Egg drop… it’s an ok/good.
That’s all for now. I will continue to eat here because I love the general.“

“By far, my family’s favorite place for Chinese takeout in the area! Every once in awhile we think we’ll try somewhere else, but we always end up disappointed and come back to Panda Garden. The food is consistently hot and delicious with large portions and the delivery times are short.“

“I have gotten food from here dozens of times over the years. The food is always hot and fresh with generous portions. They definitely crank out the orders, usually no more than 15 minutes when you call ahead. The staff can be a little cold at times, but not rude or objectionable. The dine in area is pretty basic tables and chairs, no real atmosphere. I always get it to go.“

“I took my 2yr old and 7yr old here for lunch and they had a fun time cooking their own food. We got the bento lunch and it was delicious. I recommend the miso broth and spicy chicken. The mushroom broth is very light and tasty too. They keep napkins in a drawer under the front of the table which was very helpful with kids. The staff was very friendly and helpful. My son was fascinated by the robot server. We will definitely be back soon. One of the best dining experiences we've had in a long long time.“

“Terrific General Tso Chicken. The sauce has just a little heat to it and is a little sweet and flavorful. The fried rice has some veggies in it, and has good flavor on its own. The bourbon chicken is also good, basically the same as General Tso but the sauce has no heat and has just a little bourbon tinge. Three wontons in my soup, and it was delicious.“

“Love the food at this location but the service in the drive-thru is terrible . Greeting someone with “ what would you like “ then after they are finished saying “ pull up” is completely unprofessional. As a manager , these employees would benefit from an additional training in customer service.“

“Food is tasty, it’s hard to find a good restaurant with quality food. My only complaint is the fortune cookies, they used to have normal fun fortunes in them. Now it’s like all ads. I don’t want to open a cookie to be asked to scan a qr code to download an app. It’s ridiculous. I get enough of that on my phone, I don’t need it coming from my food. Although I applaud the effort of these marketing guys looking for new ways…THIS IS NOT THE FUTURE I assure you. Anywho. Give China house a try, I can honestly say they’ve got good food.“

“We were looking for recommendations for lunch after we went to the zoo. We had delivery from this place probably 5 years ago and it was so good. I talked to my friends about revisiting today and boy I'm so glad we did! Not only did we have super size portions, The food was fantastic! I recommend anyone taking a trip to the zoo to check out Ninja grill afterwards for lunch!“
