Great Wall Chinese Restaurant

This place has been a standard in Columbus for many years. However, I just tried it for the first time on Monday for lunch. I had the Kung-Pao Chicken lunch special. The food was ready for pickup up very promptly and was very hot. The lady at the counter was nice. This place is old school Chinese takeout. The food was ok, however I felt the dish had way too much celery and peanuts and not near enough pieces of chicken. So I was rather disappointed. I always hear good things about Great Wall and will probably give it another try sometime, but my first impression wasn't all the impressive.

At risk of it sounding negative re: Covid-19 precautions and I didn't mean to. The staff is behind a completely enclosed front counter with pass-through drawers for paying and picking up your food. No waiting in the tables. My son loves the food as do his coworkers at nearby Best Buy! My dish was excellent--Triple Crown Hunan Style. We'll ve back!

I was hungry and felt like having chinese food. I decided to Great Wall. Entering the restaurant, I noticed it was very clean. It was quite empty during the Sunday lunch hour. Great Wall is your typical storefront chinese place, alongside a strip of other stores and restaurants. I appreciated the friendly smiling faces, and with that alone makes you feel like the food is already going to be good. I ordered by phone, the General Tso's chicken lunch, and substituted the pork fried rice and replaced with white rice. I also asked for an egg roll because you only get an egg roll with the dinner special. When I got home and dug into my lunch....flavor met me almost before I even placed the food in my mouth, delicious!!!! The chicken was crispy and sweet and spicy on the outside, and tender juicy meat on the inside. So crispy and fresh, it was like that bite you take out of a juicy piece of fried chicken, and the hot flavorful juice hits the other side of your cheek...that's exactly how fresh this chicken was to me! The white rice was your typical best friend to balance the sweet and spicy.The egg roll was really crispy and fresh as well, and the veggies inside (shredded cabbage) seemed very fresh too. Heck, it was all FRESH, lol!! Thank you Great Wall for a delightful lunch!If you are still browsing for a chinese place in Columbus, you better stop and go to Great Wall!! Seriously, I am telling you that you found the chinese place you're looking for!! You will feel like you've reached the top without all of the steps to climb!

My favorite Chinese spot in town!!! The fried rice is the best! Friendly staff and excellent service. The fried wings and sweet and sour chicken are delicious. Very clean restaurant. I will keep coming a lot for sure. I was very impressed.

Aug 2019 - I'm a local and there are really 2 places in town to get good takeout Chinese food. GW is one (YeeKee - cash only - is the other). GW is always fast and friendly with a similar selection as other takeout Chinese restaurants. Good prices, good parking, good hours, and excellent food. The place has been around for years, so they must be doing something right.

Employees were eating on the job, people were coughing, no one wore gloves, we got the food ourselves and the food was u satisfying would not recommend

Eggrolls eggrolls eggrolls. That's all I got, but holy crap were they good. Next time I'm in my hometizzle, I'll get more.Short review for a short order. Don't judge me.

General Tso should have flavor and juicy chicken. I don't know what was used but my take out sure wasn't any good. I didn't finish and will not go back.

The lady at the front desk is always sooo nice! Food is fast and very good. This is where my kids always want to go when it's their turn to pick dinner!

A small business doing a great job making good hot food. Always clean and friendly place to eat.
