Had eggshells in my order and they wouldn't replace the food. Rude waitress in the front and I will never come back to this place so disappointed the Indian food place next door is a great place though !! read more

Just how I remembered it from 20+ years ago. That's how long it's been since I've eaten at this restaurant. Unfortunately the venue looks like it's 20+ years old (lol!)....but the food is still amazing. Growing up in Palmdale, this was my favorite Chinese restaurant. I was in the Lancaster area and decided to stop by and boy am I glad I did. Ordered my favorite dish.. the crispy duck.. and it was cooked to perfection.. crispy on the outside.. moist in the inside (Highly recommended!). Also ordered the sweet and pungent shrimp...both my toddler kids said that it was the "best shrimp dish they've ever had" - lol. I was also impress with the drink selections (full bar)...much more variety than your typical Chinese restaurant. Tried the milk tea boba and it was actually really good. Best part was the price... all very very reasonable! read more

Great Wall Restaurant - Sweet & Pungent Shrimp, Crispy Duck, Milk Tea Boba...yummy! - Chinese Near Me - Lancaster, California

I have been eating at Great Wall since I moved here in 87.. they have wonderful food! My favorite place for Chinese food! BUT , I ordered take out during covid, it seemed like the food was left over.. it was awful, I called and complained, the gentleman that answered the phone made all kinds of excuses.. but I always loved their food.. so I recently stopped by to eat inside.. and I was happy that the food was good.. BUT THE RESTAURANT IS DISGUSTING, there was old food under the glass they put on the tables, I don't think they have ever spent any money updating the place, the bathrooms are so gross.. and the old pink walls in the dining area are dated and faded, the decor is old and falling apart.. I just can't go back there... time to update and clean that place up! read more

Wish I could give this place more stars but honestly this place is alllllrigghhtt. Its not the best Chinese food out here.. but then again this is the AV & choices out here are limited. If you're looking for a cheap lunch to fill you up then this is definitely you're go to place.. I mean you can't go wrong with their lunch combo plates for $5-6 bucks (shrimp options too) - comes with an entree, soup, rice, an eggroll & 2 wontons.. great deal! I regret getting Sweet & Sour Shrimp as my entree option.. it was heavily battered, even on the burnt side. I've also tried their Pan Fried Noodles thinking it would be better since its a la Carte, but it was bland. The noodles, the gravy.. not horrible, but not tasty, meh. I still come every now and then to try to order different things. I have mixed feelings about the customer service here too, I truly dislike thinking I've asked for too much when I ask for straws for our drinks & a couple extra napkins.. Nevertheless our server was decent. Place is alright. read more

I usually order the dinner combination for pickup, good food at a great value. When dining in, its the place your grandma from the AV loved, and well, they haven't changed a thing. Like its still the same carpet from who knows when. To me this is quintessential of craft Chinese food and its no bother. I love that they advertise Hennessy on the drink menu. I always order it and they always look surprised. A true Lancaster Gem! read more

They literally have the best boba in town! Great food! Their wonton soup is just great! Staff is very friendly! Coming back soon! read more

Worst Chinese take out I have ever had. Egg Fu Yung was over cooked, dry and tasteless. Batter was uncooked on fried shrimp , pork ribs were over cooked ,hard and inedible. I will not order from this place again. read more

The worst experience in my life. I ordered spicy garlic chicken and it was everything but that. No garlic no spice tasted like sweet and sour chicken under cooked rushed with no type of flavor. Please save your time money and appetite this place is trash. this is my second time trying it and I'm disappointed again. I'm saving this plate to return it back soon as they open with a live view of my experience. That was nasty so gross. read more

I come here often for sit down meal and take out too. Its the food that keeps me coming back. Yes the restaurant is dated, and the service is sometimes awesome and sometimes mediocre, but I go to a restaurant for the food and it's great. My friend likes the beef chop suey and I like the Kung Pao chicken and Mar ko Gai Pan. Paper wrapped chicken is always tasty. read more

Great service, Great Food, Great Portions of food. This place reminded me of my childhood with my parents. Favorite Chinese place in the Antelope Valley read more

Great Wall Restaurant - Chinese Near Me - Lancaster, California

After 30 years of loving this place we're DONE! $ 60 worth of food gave us BURNT eggrolls, BURNT fried wanton, OVERCOOKED wrapped chicken, DRY & HARD sweet & sour chicken & fried rice with NO veggies NO flavor (basically white rice) .The OWNERS response was for him to SCREAM at me calling me a LIAR, SCAMMER, & a CHEAT like ALL the OTHERS. I've eaten at this place OVER 100 times throughout the years & NEVER had a problem before. I should have read the YELP reviews. read more

It was my first time visiting for some Chinese takeout and will definitely be my last. The Kung Pao chicken was more like veggies in a soup, with just a bit of chicken. Doesn't even taste like Kung Pao. The fried wontons have no filling it's literally just a fried chip. And I also got a Wonton soup. Although it's a large size for a decent price it was basically just wontons in hot chicken broth. No veggies, little taste, overall this place was a disappointment. read more

Pretty much what you would expect for a Chinese restaurant in Lancaster. Food was not that great and a little too greasy.

This places used to be great now it's so so. They charge for everything now. The free hot tea, they charge. The free wonton chips, they charge. The free ride with wow carte, they charge. Never once refilled my water. Food was decent but not as good as it used to be. Very disappointed this time. read more

Take out review: I have NEVER sat down to eat in here but I always order take out. The service is good and I am greeted by a very nice young lady. However as I was paying today I realized they have a B score from the health department it makes me a little uneasy but i do want to point out that their food is indeed good and I have never had any problems of wondering what is in my food but this is a concern for me. They should try to fix it on their next check up. read more

Food is awful. This place used to be my favorite Chinese food place and now it is the worst! I ordered shrimp fried rice that was mush and had no flavor. The shrimp was cut in half. This place needs to shut down and I do not recommend! read more

Love this place. The best egg foo young! They have been around for a long time. Keep up the good work! Also they are quick!

The only reason I'm giving it a 3 is because the attendant at the front just wasn't very pleasant. She didn't make any eye contact no smiling and stoped me every 5 seconds to do something else. I felt rushed while ordering and when I asked a question I got a rude comment in return. We ordered take out and the food was delicious but they should put someone at the front who actually has a little bit of spunk. Makes me not want to come back just because it was so awkward... read more

Okay, wow where do I start.... The place looked very typical Chinese restaurant decor. They had on soft traditional oriental music. Walking in I was ready to get my Chinese tastebuds socks knock off. Officially without a doubt this is unequivocally the most horrific Chinese restaurant I had ever eaten at. I literally had to force myself to eat this meal. I mean this place really sucks. I felt Panda Express this more authentic then this place, need I say more? Extremely overpriced for what it is. I was told by my server that this was not authentic Chinese food and that they are very Americanized an order to serve the clientele in the area and that I should not keep my expectations high if I have eaten in Chinatown. Yes that is correct, jaw-dropping comment by the server. My eyes rolled in back of my head and my head was literally about to implode" My wife had to clam me down, as I was contemplating walking out. Now the fun stuff, the food; I tried to comparable the pan fried noodles to something I eaten in the past and the only thing that came to mind was styrofoam, seriously not an understatement. I asked my wife does this taste like styrofoam? She reply, yes. I know it sounds crazy right, but completely true. In addition to that I order shrimp and lobster sauce dish and a broccoli and shrimp dish and seriously they both taste exactly the same WTF! There was no difference other than I have broccoli in one dish. It's gets better, I ordered wonton soup with noddles and it seriously was like eating spaghetti noddles and wontons. They used real spaghetti pasta in my soup, no joke " I was completely mortified and disgusted beyond words. I do not recommend this place for human consumption. It is definitely a place you would want to take an enemy or ex-girlfriend or boyfriend you hate or something like that. No stars if I could, I will never ever be back. Update: then this owner or whoever runs their social media sends me a message telling me not to disrespect your food and employee and that different Chinese cook things differently which was completely contradicting with the server told me. His remark just made me more convinced that this place is horrible. read more

I have eaten here numerous times. The food was always satisfactory. But my last experience was very different. I ordered curry chicken. It was not as described by the waiter but the sauce was tasty so I accepted it. The first bite of chicken made me totally regret my decision. It was chewy like chicken skin. Thought I would continue, maybe second piece would be better. Couldn't chew it...very overcooked. Okay, I'll fill up on fried rice. Nope...what looked burnt bottom of pan was mixed throughout rice. Okay, time to call manager over. Forty five minutes later he appears and asks me what I want him to do about it. No more Great Wall for me! read more

Amazing food! And always great service I make sure to stop here when I'm in town visiting family!

I have only found restaurant food uneatable twice in my life. Last night was one of those times. Deluxe Chow Mein was soggy and tasteless with no sign of meat or vegetables. Fried Rice was dry and tasteless. I found one pea and one carrot in my serving. No egg. Sweet and Sour Pork was lacking in a minimal amount of Sweet and Sour Sauce. Fried Shrimp was dripping in grease and in a soggy undercooked batter. Good Bye Great Wall, you are getting worse instead of better. Where can I find good Dine In Chinese Food in the Antelope Valley? read more

It's not Covid anymore. First time ordering and all the food was absolutely tasteless. The Kung pau chicken had only peppers and cucumber. What is that? The beef and broccoli had no flavor. And the orange chicken was like a big clump of slug and cold. Not sure what is happening to restaurants now. But this was unexepatble! Especially when spending $50 on dinner. Never again! Oh and the sweet and sour soup. Don't bother. It's just some broth with nothing barely in it and again no flavor. Ugh! This was just awful!! read more

Came here on New Years and the food and service was excellent. Guess it was a fluke. Got the assorted appetizer plate and everything was Luke warm I think that was due to our waitress forgetting about us. But the fried shrimp on the appetizer plate was still doughy and the egg rolls felt like they had just been microwaved. I also ordered the broccoli beef plate and again Luke warm. And the rice that came with it mushy. I don't know how to cook but I know how to make better rice then what they gave me. The waitress never came by to get our drinks or to c how we were doing. I'm just flabbergasted. read more

Ordered Chow Fun with shrimp as my protein. Was bland, bland, bland. Sauce absolutely had no flavor. What a disappointment. I was really looking forward to this dish. read more

Ordered house special fried rice to go. Delivered by GrubHub to my hotel nearby. I paid for extra shrimp but only 5 small pieces in the entire meal. No beef, no pork, no chicken, no fork, no chopsticks and only one tiny package of soy sauce. I paid over $21.00 for this. I cannot recommend nor will I ever order from them again. How cheap can you get...what a ripoff. read more

We get take out here about once a month. Always get the Assorted Appetizer Tray, Crispy Duck, Walnut Shrimp, General Tso Chicken, Deluxe Rice, Deluxe Low Mein. It's about $60, and it lasts for a few days(except the shrimp...they skimp a bit on that). Order is always right-and the awesome hostess always checks it before handing it over. I've eaten in a couple of times, and it's a pretty standard experience. Nothing outstandingly great or bad. Cocktails are just ok, but since I come for the food, I can't complain too much. read more

I honestly did not like this restaurant at all and everything from the egg roll to the rice and chicken was really sub par at best. The egg rolls were overcooked, the rice was tasteless and the chicken was barely orange chicken. The pricing was OK but you don't get that much and there's a lot of runty pieces of questionable chicken. Panda Express is way better read more

Ever since this restaurant has been around I've been going to it. But since a few recent experiences, never again The first time I politely asked my waitress if we could have more water, she said yes and came back with a pitcher of water. She refilled everyone else's, EXCEPT MINE! just skipped right over me. Then today I had horrible service. I found a dark hair in my food, mind you i have bright purple hair. They tried to tell me it was mine. I told the older bus boy and he turned around and told my waitress "go deal with her". She came over to me and asked "I heard you have a hair in your food" and took it and walked away. She came back immediately with THE SAME PLATE! Just that one peace of chicken removed. I then told her "you know what, it doesn't look like anything was done with my plate, just take it off of my bill" . She then proceeded to the back with the plate in her hand to the break room and starting gossiping with the other workers, they all looked at me. She charged for my egg roll and soup! I'm so done with that place, never again. read more

This may have been the spot at one time. But I was truly disappointed in the overwhelming menu, poor combo choices, lack of kid plates, and the actual quality and taste of each dish. read more

If I could give this place no stars I would, the customer service is none existing. I ordered to go and they made us wait when I asked if our order was sitting on the table by the host and the host said no. So we waited 15-20 minutes and she grabbed our order off the front table where it was cold. They were busy so we moved out of the lobby to our vehicle so we did not take up any more room they were not doing social distancing nor following any local health guidelines. I called to talk to the manager and he said it was my fault that they messed up and were missing almost the whole order I told him we were just outside and to fix it or refund us and he said no not their problem. I checked how much they charged my credit card and my credit card company said that they also charged me too much and changed the tip amount. I am be disputing the charge (my credit card said that its fraudulent just based on the fact that they are charging for a product that I didn't get let alone all the other issues) I will also be informing the county health department which I have video of the lobby situation with guests crammed into, not wearing masks and completely unable to social distance and the BBB. Save your money even Panda Express has better quality food. read more

The food was nasty... It came out fast, which was kind of odd... But it was extremely salty, greasy and not quite piping hot.. like someone ordered and cancelled and they brought it to us instead. The Orange Chicken was brown and dry, Chow Mein Deluxe was cold and soggy.... I just wasn't impressed at all. My waitress didn't bring water, tea, place settings, chop sticks, or requested items... it was the bus boy. She never checked back with us until she brought the bill.. never a refill, "is everything okay?".. nothing. I hope this isn't all Lancaster has to offer because if so, I'm sad. Very, very sad. Plus side: the bus boy (young Hispanic guy) was SUPER helpful. He brought everything to the table that the waitress did not. He's really awesome. Update: Apparently the owner doesn't take well to negative feedback and will send you rude messages if you have anything to say that isn't what he likes. I stand by my review and now I will make it my mission to make sure my neighbors, family or friends go to this restaurant ever! read more

I have always been served nicely. Very welcoming. I enjoy coming here with my children. It's diverse and cozy. read more

Went to lunch and got the chow mien lunch special. Great value and the chow mien was yummy! It is the chow mien w beansprouts not the kind W noodles. Which is exactly what I like! The special came with egg roll, soup and I think it was won ton? I dont care for won ton, so can't judge it. But the rest was good. Can hardly wait to go back! I went with a friend. The total for two people was 13 dollars. What a great bargain! I'll be back to try more items! read more

It's great wall. They have been around a long time and are the epitome of Lancaster Chinese. Great prices on their family specials! You can easily feed a family with them, with leftovers. Their paper chicken is incredibly succulent! read more

I always enjoy the food here. Typical Chinese food. Good selection. Good service. My favorite dish is the green onion beef. I recommend ordering things cooked without oil or with not much oil because their things tend to be quite greasy. They have great soup there. read more

I decided to give it another chance as maybe they had an off day. Sorry to say it has only gotten worst. Every dish we ordered was watery and tasteless. Something has drastically changed. Crazy amout of liquid (what the hell is that all about). This was our favorite restaurant for many many years. Extremely disappointed 1 star. read more

Food: I came here at lunch time and ordered the fried rice deluxe and honey walnut shrimp. The fried rice tasted really good, however, when I received the honey walnut shrimp, the walnuts were burnt so bad. They were really bitter! I told the waitress that the walnuts were burnt and she took the whole dish to the back. She returned with the same dish (walnuts still burnt) with the manager. The manager (short Chinese guy with glasses) explained that the walnuts has honey in them and that's how it's suppose to be. I couldn't believe that the manager had the audacity to come to my table and defend this dish with burnt walnuts! He said he was going to replace the walnuts, however, I did want to leave the dish on my table instead of bringing it to the back. About five minutes later, the waitress came back with a small bowl of again, BURNT WALNUTS! WTH is wrong with this people?!? Please see uploaded pictures. The manager came back again and said how's the walnuts? I told him its still the same. He again said (sarcastically), that's how its suppose to be and then he left. I know how this dish is suppose to be prepared because I've eaten this dish numerous times and have cooked it myself at home a dozen times. The manager could've handled this situation a lot better. I figured he lacked any professionalism and I just had to let it go. The Verdict: Retrain the manager AND the cook. In the meantime, I'll be staying clear of this restaurant. read more
