A little hole in the wall place, but the food is great for takeout. Best Chinese in Columbia for sure.

Always awesome food, when we go there!!! In my opinion best Chinese food in town!! Always get generous portions of food.

Service was great and the price was great, taste was exceptionally delicious! Never ate here before but will definitely be a place to "return to". Menu is easy to follow along with some great visual menu too. read more

Grace Chinese Restaurant - 左宗鸡General Tso's Chicken with rice and two spring rolls - Szechuan Near Me - Columbia, Tennessee

Let me start by saying that I probably have a refined palate. Having lived in a lot of different states/cities and living in NYC for over 20yrs having access to many different cuisines, I do know my Chinese food. Christmas Eve, 2024 a friend and I stopped here for take out. I ordered the General Tso's chicken, Cheese wontons with white rice and my friend got sweet n sour chicken. I was so excited as I had not had chinese food since moving her in June (unless I cooked it at home) I chose this spot b/c they seemed to be packed. We waited inside about an hour for our food, they were very busy. Inside is small but clean. Finally our food was done and we headed home, about a 4 min drive. Once home I dug in into my cheese wontons, they were good but I was disappointed I didn't get any sweet and sour dipping sauce (which is usually a staple for this) My friend shared some of his. I took my first bite of my General Tso and it was just bland. No spice at all, no taste at all. The rice had a weird smell/after taste to it that I could not pin point. The staff was very friendly, ordering was easy. But the food lacked flavor. Sadly I probably won't be back here. Sorry guys. read more

Very modest settings, but the best Chinese food in Columbia. This was the third Chinese restaurant we've tried in Columbia, we were afraid we were going to have to drive to Franklin for Chinese. But this place made the grade. The two Chinese restaurants on Trotwood have inedible meat, fat string together by breaded gristle. They're a waste of space. Columbia has some mighty bad restaurants, but this one is going to work for us. read more

Ordered General Tao's chick and got Orange Chicken. Ordered Tarter sauce with the Fried Shrimp, confirmed over the phone that they served Tarter Sauce because I would have not ordered the Fried shrimp if they didn't have Tarter Sauce (would have ordered Somthing different) got cocktail sauce. Fried rice mushy ( call it frozen steamed rice). Breading on the shrimp was fantastic. read more

My husband and ordered for take out from here today. My husband has ordered their food to be delivered, through Doordash, to his work several times. He kept raving over it, so I told him I need to try it. We got their House Lo Mein, Happy Family and Hot & Sour soup. Delicious! Best we've ever had! Their pork eggrolls and crab Rangoon were also very good! We'll definitely be regulars! read more

The food so far is really good & taste fresh & of quality it's not the best looking inside but service is good & fast.

Food and service is fantastic. I'm never disappointed with the food! The little guy at the front who takes orders is so polite and they are good about getting your food out quickly. read more

You'd think Columbia was large enough to have at least ONE decent Chinese Restaurant. Nope, not even close. Just tried to eat our Grace order.. Hard to tell if ingredients were spoiled, or just old. Spicy dishes were not spicy in the least. Noodles & wontons were old and overcooked as if they were out on a buffet line too long. Got the impression whoever was preparing dishes had never had the dish they were making.. so they didn't know how it was SUPPOSED to look/taste. Ended up just throwing the meal away. At least it wasn't too pricey. Still, throwing away a nearly $50 order is disappointing. Bottom line, if you've ever enjoyed good Chinese anywhere else in the country.. don't waste time/money ordering Chinese in Columbia. :-/ read more

So, I'm only giving one dish 4 stars, because I've had a couple other things I didn't really care for. Lo mein is pretty mushy and Mongolian beef was ok with too much greasy sauce and such. BUT, if you don't like overly sauced dishes they have a solution. If you enjoy spicy noodles with a curry tinge the Singapore Chow Mei Fun is damn tasty. It's the only thing I get from here now and it's pretty fire. Hope you give it a try and enjoy it. read more

I went in person and Ordered Their teriyaki. Chicken was really water. The fried rice hand no seasoning and tasted plain. I will not be back was very disappinted read more

Ordered Togo. Their teriyaki. Chicken was like soup, had a red blood color in the said "soup". Grossed us out so we tried taking it back for a refund and was sent away because "there's nothing wrong with it". Cool then there should be nothing wrong with this 1 star and me felling everyone I know :) thanks for wasting my time and being fundamentally okay with keeping my money! read more

Didn't get what I ordered and what I got didn't seem cooked and was completely bland. Not going here again.

Food is wonderful, generous portions, best Chinese cuisine in town , loved the spicy beef dishes and the noodles are fantastic

Beware when ordering online. There was an extra charge once I arrived to pick up my order not to mention they had a question about my order and instead of calling and asking they waited until I arrived to pick it up the. Proceeded to prepare the dish they had a question about while the rest of my order sat there. So everything was cold except the one dish I had to wait on. They should correct their online system instead of charging the customer after their order is placed and paid for. read more

Ive been there a ton of times and I've never once been even close to disappointed. The portions are nice and the food is prepared well. Service is swift and my order is always correct. read more

Hidden gem that I just learned about.The food is awesome.Prices are fair as well.Can't wait to try new menu items.

So I will be generous and give this 5 star because I really found the food to be excellent. The portions were generous and quality was top notch for what it is , (take out), and price very fair. I say generous because the place looks subpar , in and out. You sure won't go there for the shining customer service either . But hey, if they keep making great food at a fair price , I'll definitely be back. read more

This is definitely a hole in the wall location, but the food is always great. We can order it and within twenty minutes, the food is ready for pickup - always. We have tried several dishes from their large menu and all have been good. Tonight, I had the House Special Fried Rice. I had brown rice instead of white, it had great flavors and everything was cooked perfectly. My husband had the Hot and Spicy Shrimp - lots of great flavor and some heat. This is the second time he has had it - definitely recommends this to anyone wanting a spicy shrimp dish. You can order it through several different websites for delivery or pickup. We do pickup to save the ridiculous costs of the delivery companies. Highly recommend Grace Chinese Restaurant. read more

Best Chinese in Columbia. I judge a joint based on three factors: pork fried rice, sesame chicken, and pork egg rolls. Grace does all these just-right. So many places pass off rice with some soy sauce and egg as "pork fried rice," but Grace gets it - lots of flavor and goodies. Sesame Chicken must have the right balance of sugar and vinegar (most places skimp on the vinegar). Once again, Grace nails it. Pork egg rolls were flavorful, not soaked in grease, and not stale. Don't be put off by the shabby building and sketchy location. Go for it. read more

We did the family 5 deal and added some Lo Mein. It was amazing. All of the food tasted delicious! Would definitely recommend! read more

Grace Chinese Restaurant - Family 5 deal - Szechuan Near Me - Columbia, Tennessee

The food is not authentic, but it's pretty darn good Americanized Chinese. This isn't a place to go in if you're looking for table service, or great ambiance. Order online and bring it home. read more

The food is some of the best Chinese take out that l have had in a very long time. It's primarily take out. There are a couple of tables off the side of the entrance, but I have never seen anyone eating there. There is no ambiance, but you could eat there. The service is professional and strictly business. Again; the food is excellent and generous read more

I LOVE this place. Best Chinese food in town! It's rather hard to find the first time, and looks a bit scary. But it's SO delicious!! It's also fast. Consistent quality. Usually never find chewy things in the meat. Lol read more

Where to start? I decided to try their food bc I haven't ate here in years. I should have just left there after I couldn't understand the guy taking my order and he couldn't understand me. We pushed thru and I figured the food had to be good bc the phone was ringing off the hook and the 2 other workers was really busy. Nope my rice was just that...plain, no vegetables and I'm going to assume they forgot how to fry rice bc it was hardly fried. I could taste the grease tho. LOL. So you spend 20$ and choice of Rangoon or egg rolls. I chose Rangoon (bad idea) it was pretty much fried crust with a dab of filling. I enjoyed the chicken on the stick. I probably won't go back unless someone else is buying and I'll try to talk them out of it. So bye $22.16 for an epic fail. read more

I was very disappointed in the beef fried rice that I ordered here tonight. I have never eaten fried rice that doesn't have vegetables in it, only onions. Vegetables, carrots and peas, and egg is a staple in fried rice. I have eaten here several times and normally enjoy it. But this dish was very disappointing!! Everything else was good or as good as I expected. read more

WOW. I absolutely loved this place. The orange chicken, rice, and Sweet & Sour soup were all amazing. The staff was nice. Lots of food. I am so excited to go back and try something else!! Doesn't look like much on the outside, but taste wise ... incredible. read more

What a shit hole it smells they don't even have a bathroom the people are rude you can tell the don't like Americans I would not recommend this place to anyone read more

The only reason I am giving Grace Chinese 4 stars is because they have the best Chinese food my husband and I have had in the 9 months we have lived in Tennessee. Coming from Seattle, the Asian food options have been disappointing to say the least. They may have the best Chinese food we have found, but the eating establishment itself is dirty and disgusting!! It is clear that the people who eat food from here only do takeout. I spotted 3 spiders at our table, 2 living and one dead. There were no napkins, filthy tables, and no sauces. The gentleman who greeted us at the counter had pretty horrific customer service skills as well. All that being said, the food is good!!! read more

We have been going to Grace Chinese Restaurant since before they opened in Columbia, they are the BEST Chinese restaurant in this area...their food is always fresh and made to order and the staff is very nice.. read more
