It was pretty expensive. The food was alright. I've had better. The service was good, but a little awkward. Didn't feel too welcoming in there.
3 stars for good service, though, hard to hear through the masked wait staff or even feel a smile. What is the point if customers do not need masking for staff to wear them? They do not work anyway, as we have been advised. Plus, they remove their maskes when in the kitchen, as we saw...not to blame them. So why would State of AZ require restaurant staff to wear masks? But we do not penalize the restaurants for that, only their Associstion for not lobbying more diligently.Nevertheless,the ***homemade egg rolls(@$2.75 ea)were delish, but pricey...like most things, since the poor supply chain problems and gas price increases which has caused our food and packaging prices to increase.Another plus 2 small cups of their ***wonton soup,* costing extra @$4.50 ea... with what appeared to be homemade wontons; which were delicate and tasted yummy.Strangely, they do not mix veg n meat items into the($9.95) pork egg-foo-young dishes, but place all veg n cut meat on top of the egg/bean sprout mixture/the panfried 0patty...which was not as tasty as other restaurants with same dish offerings we have had experienced for ages. *But they do not use MSG in anything...probably a good thing and the reason. A touch of soy sauce fixed that taste issue and note:(no headaches after eating their food) a happy occurance.The other dish we tried was almond chicken, also just ok. It had way too much sauce in the dish, scant amount of chicken that had little taste and only a few "sliced" almonds, but good amount of diced water chestnuts and bamboo shoots. (Dinner price per dish$12.95) Even at todays retail food prices...it is unreasonable for only 2 cups of food including 3 smallish patties, (waitstaff said it would be 4)...worth approximately $1.25...yikes! I will buy my own ingredients and make it at home.We may try this Great Wall place again, but continue to search for a "fav go to" Chinese Restaurant.
Love the food here, been getting take out for the family 2-3 times a month for a couple years now. Always satisfying.
I make the long trek (90 minutes due to bad traffic) only to find that they only do takeout. Nothing on the website says it's takeout-only, and the Google entry indicates dining in is available. This is no way to treat potential new customers. It's a good way to keep me from ever making another attempt, though.
There is no chance the “chicken” is actually chicken. I’m thinking more like there serving human skin . Never in my life have I had worse “chicken”. I’d rather eat glass, throw it up and eat it again
I love this restaurant! The dumplings are fantastic and house made! The Singapore style noodles are delicious! The staff is amazing, always friendly and inviting! I always look forward to coming here! Awesome food, awesome people! Love, love, love!
We politely asked for a refund since we spent almost $90 for my brothers birthday. The owner said to me “why did you take the food if it was bad and I said happy birthday to your brother. Everyone else’s order was fine.” The pork was sour and had a super bad smell to it. The fish also tasted very off. We haven’t been here in awhile so it made us sad. They also forgot our soup and noodles. She wouldn’t give a recite and said she couldn’t type it up for us since it was cash. We let that slide since it’s been awhile. It’s usually okay eating here. But this was awful and she was very very rude.
The food here at The Great Wall is always fresh and absolutely fabulous! The best Chinese food in the valley!
The food is always incredible and the owner/hostess is an amazing person, we love the food and service everytime. Best Chinese resteraunt anywhere!
We have been ordering take out from Great Wall for well over 10 years. Not only do the wife and I like it our kids love it so anytime we can all agree on good food it's a keeper. We actually moved away from that area about 10 years ago and still continue to make this our go to Chinese takeout.
