Of all the Chinese restaurants I've eaten from, this is by far the cleanest and freshest restaurant I've been to. I was really surprised by the low ratings. We had the shrimp chowmein, crab rangoons, green beans, salt and pepper chicken and the steamed fish. Everything was delicious and this will be a spot we'll visit again when we're back in town. read more

My husband is a bit of a snob when it comes to Singapore noodles, and he said these were the best he's eaten. The serving size was quite large and the amount of shrimp, cha siu, and other meats was plentiful. The hot and sour soup was also delicious. We will be coming back to try their other dishes. The restaurant was clean and beautifully decorated. Service was also excellent. read more

Fond memories of the Great Wall Chinese restaurant. I worked next door in the Pacific Bell business office as a Service Representative. I remember many business lunch meetings "brainstorming" strategies with my team manager Erin Miller. "Show Me The Money" was our team motto for the office. I appreciate the sales & marketing skills invested into our team building. I still recognize many of the staff including James. I enjoy being in the presence of awesome family and friends that serve the community with authenticity & well presented cuisines. I highly recommend Great Wall for your business meetings or the whole family outing for five star yummy goodness. read more

Amazing!! The service was beyond exceptional! The staff were all very friendly and attentive. We ordered a total of 3 dishes and found two of them very tasty. After staff noticed that one of the dishes we ordered wasn't our personal preference, they prepared a different dish, without us asking and with no additional charge. The new dish that they made was fantastic and delicious. If you're in the area looking for a great place to eat I would highly recommend Great Wall! read more

We went to try this place. The place reminds you of a Chinese restaurant from the 1970s. We tried the shrimp chow mein and potstickers. The potstickers were a little bit bland, and there was nothing remarkable about the food. Our waiter was a nice guy. read more

I came here around 7 p.m. on a Sunday, and we were able to get seated quickly. We ordered the spring rolls, savory glazed tofu, and the chow mein, all of which were super yummy. The portion sizes were decent, and the prices were pretty good. I would definitely recommend this place for any vegetarians, as they had plenty of vegetarian options available! read more

Dinner set C fried chicken subbed with green bean chicken was too salty and too oily. Same for Mongolian beef. The fried rice wasn't salty but lacked good wok hai and wasn't fully declumped. Also oily. Too expensive. I got the same volume for almost half the price elsewhere. read more

Great food and good service. Portions were very generous and the prices were very reasonable.

Even though it got a little mushy, my favorite dish was Singapore rice noodles because the beef had a mild heat/spice. Good use of five spice seasoning here. I ordered BBQ pork buns and chicken fried rice (underseasoned) for takeaway, but we went to a different restaurant by mistake. Kung pao beef, Mongolian beef, and shrimp shumai were ready in 20 minutes. This business was good with communication, calling back if the call was dropped and confirming that we were coming to get it before closing. read more

Great Wall Restaurant - Chow fun- so good - Chinese Near Me - Monterey, California

The most bland Chinese food I've ever tasted. No flavor at all. Just oil and vegetables. They don't give much meat either. Avoid.

The wall has always been my favorite! They definitely have exquisite food and service is great. It has a consistent goodness about it and the restaurant itself is big and beautiful! read more

This business was directly across the road from our hotel when we stayed in Monterey recently, and i had a hankering for some Chinese. It's nicely appointed inside, spacious, and it wasn't very full when we went inside. We were given a booth by the window, and drink orders taken. I opted for Beef Chow Mein, husband wanted Egg Drop Soup. Apparently, rice is not included with dishes, but it didn't count anyway for what we were ordering. The prices are good here, so ordering rice separately would not have been a problem. Husband had wanted to do family style, but i really dislike that. I'm English, and it was never a thing there. My Beef Chow Mein was superb, one of the best I've had, plentiful, super-tender strips of beef, not at all fatty (I hate fat) lovely noodles and bean sprouts there was also cabbage. It was SO good, i was overeating. He ordered a small bowl of soup, but I'm not kidding, the bowl was enormous. I ate maybe 2/3 of my Chow Mein, and offered it to him to try, and said I'd have a taste of his soup. That Egg Drop Soup was also the best I've tasted. Seasoned to perfection, tiny pieces of onion, so good. I only wanted a spoonful, ended up eating about a dozen spoonfuls. I often find that Egg Drop Soup seems somewhat gelatinous, this wasn't like that, but i know it was delicious. The prices were excellent, so great value for money. Service too, was fast and efficient. Something to note, when we went in and sat down, the door of the restaurant had been left open to catch the evening breeze. What "breezed" through the restaurant, was a potent, and eye-watering blast of marijuana. It stunk. The Host was on it immediately, demanding to know "Are you smoking?" To all the booths down our side, which i admire greatly, actually. I'm glad he asked, as it did stink. Conceivably, it could have come from outside, so he closed the door for 5 minutes, until the smell dissipated. I would 100% return to this restaurant. The food was delicious and the portions are large, and great value for money. read more

Good service, food was good . The price seemed a little bit high for the quality of food that I got, but it was good.

Hey, SF & Bay Area Yelpers! Sometimes it's difficult to find what you crave for or are used to eating when you're traveling. This happens to me all the time. Don't get me wrong. I love trying new restaurants when I'm in a new city, but once in a while I crave (and that's why it's called crave) for something I want to eat... especially Chinese food. Gotta have it. If you're in Monterey and crave Chinese food like I do, checkout the Great Wall Restaurant. Love love love their combination chow fun. Hits the spot all the time. It's purely comfort food. In fact, all dishes have that close your eyes hmmmmmmm umami effect. Food comes fresh off the wok and is served nice and hot. When I return to San Francisco... I crave the Great Wall Restaurant! Ping pong eating! read more

Best restaurant in Monterey. Delicious food with fresh ingredients. I could eat here every day.

Customer service very professional and thanks for the extra tea. The dimsum was really great!!

We ordered from here for the first time on New Year's Eve and did pickup. The food was ready in about 15 minutes, which was impressive for a holiday, and everything was piping hot and fresh when we got it home. We ordered a wide variety: pork potstickers, veggie egg rolls, crab rangoons, a small hot and sour soup, General Tso's chicken, orange chicken, chicken fried rice, beef chow mein, and honey wall chicken wings. Overall, the food was good for classic Chinese takeout, though the flavors were on the mild side. We're originally from South Louisiana where food is very well seasoned, so this may come down to personal taste (and California tending to have a lighter seasoning style). Even so, the seasoning could have been a little stronger across the board. Spice-wise, everything was extremely mild--our six-year-old could eat everything easily. Next time, I'd probably skip the hot and sour soup (I've had better elsewhere) and the fried rice. The rice had way too many peas and not enough carrots, and the ratio felt off. That said, this is still the best Chinese food we've had in Monterey by far. It doesn't even compare to the other places we've tried, and we'll definitely be ordering again--just knowing to ask for extra seasoning or spice. read more

Excellent Chinese food! I feel very fortunate to have a friend in the know, who advised me what to order here as some top notch dishes. Ginger beef w/ extra ginger, salt and pepper shrimp or salt and pepper pork ribs (careful with the bones), chicken wing appetizer, Chinese greens. A perfect meal! The wonton soup is also very good! Service is sufficient. read more

Loved it! We came from San Diego and stumbled upon this little gem. The food was delicious and the service provided was amazing!! Mike is the BEST! By far these are the best salt n pepper wings in Monterrey. Everything was tasty! We'll definitely come back. We told the server why we came to Monterrey (nephews 25th anniversary) and he told us to come back and gifted us a tray of wings! Who does that?!! Mike did!! read more

Absolutely the best my wife and I have had. We live In Simi valley Ca yet we take a drive once in a while all the way up there to enjoy a great meal. The food is so fresh and delicious.

Tried every Chinese restaurant in the Monterey/Seaside area and this is my favorite. They have a good deal where you can get 2 entrees , low mein, and a spring roll for about $25. Perfect for me and my girlfriend to share. The generals and orange chicken is good, not spectacular, but the Mongolian beef is the best Mongolian beef I've ever had. Would recommend. read more

They were open on Thanksgiving 2024 so you thought we'd give them a try. Their menu is somewhat limited and their a little pricy but the food was good. I had a medium Wor Wonton soup for 18.80. Their Wontons taste house made. I really enjoyed them. My friend had their combination Chow Fun. It was also very good, lots of flavor. I don't like that they don't offer any combination plates, everything is an individual order. We'll be back to try other things. read more

So, I went here with a group of my friends and we were celebrating a bachelor party. This review is a mixed bag because when our group got there, the service was actually really great! The young gentleman who was helping out was really polite, helpful, guided us through the menu and gave us excellent recommendations! We wanted to leave our waiter a tip, however, the service went south towards the end of our time there. This is not the fault of the gentleman who was helping us in the beginning but actually the fault of a DIFFERENT waiter who brought us our checks at the end. He asked us what we were doing there and we explained we were just celebrating our friend. To our horror, this guy went on a whole monologue detailing his own highly inappropriate experience with a bachelor trip. He started talking about how he used substances on a bachelor trip that he was on and about women (specifically mentioning very work-inappropriate things). We told him we weren't about that life, and his whole demeanor changed. People got different work cultures so, we all laughed it off awkwardly. We would have just led it slide, however, this changed when we got our checks. This second waiter ended up mixing all of our cards and charging us on the wrong accounts. I ended up paying for one of my friends and they ended up paying for mines. So it was frustrating at just that, but on TOP OF THAT, they actually ended up charging one of our cards TWICE, which we now have to go to our bank to dispute. I have no idea if this guy did this on purpose to ruin our evening but it left us with a very garbage experience to what would have otherwise been a great evening. Saying inappropriate and appalling things in the workplace is diabolical in it of itself, however, illustrating such incompetence on this level, shows that this man is unfit for his position and did not deserve any tip whatsoever. If the first gentleman happens to read this, thank you for being such a great waiter. We apologize, we wanted to tip you directly but had no cash and unfortunately had to put 0 on our checks because we did not want a single dollar going to this second waiter who left us with such a foul taste in our mouths from this poor experience. read more

We are new to the area and are searching for our go to Chinese restaurant. This might be it! The ambiance is pleasant, the service is friendly and the food is really good. We got Salt/Pepper Shrimp (no shell), Szechuan Beef and another dish I can't remember because my husband ate all of it...the lunch specials come with a tasty soup. The fried rice/chow mein that comes with the lunch specials are OK - I would like more vegetables in those dishes but they were fine. The Salt/Pepper Shrimp was outstanding - we will definitely order that again. We will be back - often!! read more
