My husband was craving “Chinese Food”; and, I honored his request with three “3 Item Combos” and a dozen “Salt Pepper Wings”. We haven’t been here for years and was pleased with the service and delicious food. He loved the “Broccoli Beef” and wings. I loved the “Orange Chicken”, “Lo Mein” and rice. Thank you so much ☺️

Best food for the price anywhere! You can get a whole dinner for 4 for $40. And get the extra family size shrimp with it. It’s so good! Family run. Closed on Sunday.

After our shopping trip we decided to get something to eat rather than cooking. Combo items ready pick are all meat. The only vegetarian item was tofu w/ vegetables (a la carte) and it took only few minutes to cook. The veggies were cooked to perfection, they melt in your mouth. White sauce was just enough, and it seasons the food enough (not too salty). The only thing was a piece of hair in the food. Maybe people in the kitchen should wear hair caps. The food was enough for family of 3.

I recommend the garlic fried chicken wings, orange chicken, beef broccoli, and mushrooms chicken from the steam tray. Order from the kitchen (family size) I recommend the shrimp chop suey, shrimp and bean sprouts spicy, and kung pao shrimp. Don’t forget to get a punch card for the combo meal.

This is probably my worst experience ever at a Chinese Food Restaurant. First off the older lady that took my order wasn’t wearing any gloves or a hair net or hat.

We’ve been buying from them since 1995, When they were called The Great Wall, for 99 cents per item. All the food is always great — especially the fried chicken wings.

Best Chinese food in the area in my opinion always get combo #5 bbq pork fried rice very good but it does take a bit to make i recommend add a few spoon fulls of bbq sauce when it’s done gives it that extra savory taste that u didn’t know u wanted

Prices have doubled, portions are half, and the quality of the food has gone down. I find it really sad because I used to love that place.

Good portion sizes. Really good food, very flavorful – I had the chow mein, orange chix and pepper beef (and fountain Pepsi)

Good food and value. There was a bit of a wait and only take out due to covid right now but was worth it. I had the orange chicken with half and half rice and low main.
