Best Chinese food in Jessamine County, hands down. I've been coming to Great Wall for 15 years now and have never had a bad experience. The prices are reasonable, the portions are generous. Now that I live in Nicholasville, I still drive over to Wilmore for Great Wall because it's the best around. read more

Classic small local Chinese restaurant. Huge menu. Friendly people. They answer questions willingly. They will make requested changes. They make your dish after you order so it's always hot prepared quickly. The owners and workers are friendly and helpful. I've eaten here a ton. read more

I always love coming here for Sweet'N'Sour chicken. I was glad to bring my family there. It was a short wait for food. The environment is warm and always clean. read more

Go to Chinese food. Always great with friendly service. Just happy to have them in wilmore!!

We have never had anything but excellent food and service here. The orders are quickly prepared, ingredients seem fresh, and the food is the best of all the Asian restaurants that we ever tried. read more

For anyone looking for a Chinese cuisine in a small town, this place is not bad at all. Food is comparable to any small Chinese restaurants that you commonly see anywhere. The Honey chicken was decent, really crispy under all that sauce. Shrimp fried rice was actually well flavored. Crab rangoon was not crispy and the filling was bland. Food is served really hot though so that's a plus. This place is mostly take out hence a small space, Szchezuan shrimp meal was severely lacking in shrimp just mostly fillers like broccoli, red pepper, mushrooms, white onions etc. Chicken with broccoli tasted good, meat was tender. Overall, it was just an ok place to stop by. read more

See all

Best restaurant in Wilmore! We always carry out and haven't had a mess up or complaints

We love this restaurant and order take out once a week from here! Great prices and good sized portions. Our favorite dishes are honey chicken, sweet and sour chicken, and lo Mein. read more

Not what I was expecting. Locals raved about this place. However, I wasn't very impressed. Food was good but I think where I usually go is better. Prices are reasonable though. Good point: the gentleman taking orders and manning the front counter was very pleasant! read more

I dont know why but I really like this Chinese place. It's great for take out. My absolute favorite thing to order are the dumplings. They are thick and soft and meaty and so good. I would order them over and over again. Yum! read more

We are lucky to have a Chinese restaurant of this quality in Wilmore. Love Great Wall. Had the lemon chicken yesterday and it was very good.

The food is okay. Nothing spectacular or standout. I haven't explored the menu apart from a few choices, but the options I usually pick are the orange chicken and the pepper chicken. They do get your order out quick and they haven't gotten it wrong yet (fingers crossed.) read more

OK, so there aren't a lot of options for any food in Wilmore so its easy to just settle. But surprisingly this is a little hidden gem in Wilmore. I've been coming here regularly for about 2 years now. Very fast and courteous service. Large menu selection. Very reasonable prices Not going to give a detailed review on any one particular meal as they have all been good. I always order a pint of the Egg Drop soup as its very good and makes a great lunch the next day. Normal selections for a Chinese Restaurant. The food is always hot and fresh. The rice is amazing and can make it a meal in itself. I know there are other choices around in N'Ville for Chinese but I haven't really found any that I like. Besides, this is 1 mile from home. read more

We were driving back from visiting the Shaker Village since the food they sell there is very pricey, and we saw a big sign pointing to downtown Willmore, and we thought, hey we can get lunch there! Our options were basically Subway and this place, and we are all for supporting local venues, so Great Wall it was! This place is cheap. So if you want a lot of food for about $5, you get an entree of choice and rice and soup and tea! I got their sweet and sour soup and my boyfriend their egg drop soup and for some reason their egg drop soup came SCORCHING hot. He still couldn't start eating it by the time he finished eating the rest of his food! My soup came almost not quite hot enough, so I think they have some heating issues here, but both soups were decent enough. We got the kung pao chicken and garlic chicken and both were just so so. It was a lot of food, and we felt fat and full afterward, but really it wasn't anything special, other than the fact that it was a place that was open! And so many people came in here to get food while we were eating there! Everyone takes it to go, probably because the decor inside consists of some old tables and light up versions of pictures of their food, it is like eating inside a panda express but with no orange chicken and fewer colors, oh ya and no panda mascot ha. But this place is cheaper than Panda and the people that work here are so so nice and they make all of their food fresh here too when you order it, at least that's what we thought because it took quite some time to get our order, but hey, props for this place being open! read more

As a resident of Wilmore I frequent the Great Wall a lot. The decor is very basic but the atmosphere is very friendly from the owners to the patrons. The service is very fast and the food is hot and right out of the kitchen. Honestly even though the selection is not huge you can get most of the favorites that most people want. And the food is as good or better than larger Chinese restaurants I have been in. My favorites are the chicken and vegetables or the Moo goo gai pan. I always add their Hot and Sour soup. This restaurant has two things that really bug me. One is that egg rolls are not fresh so I never eat them and secondly they are now charging a fee for credit card use for purchases under five dollars. This practice is becoming more common but against their agreement with Visa. Therefore I give them three stars instead of four. read more

I probably eat at Great Wall twice a week. They are one of the few places in Wilmore that are open past 6pm, so that makes them very handy. I tend to get the same things, but they are always great. The portions are HUGE and the lunch menu offers great deals. I have ordered in the evening and it comes extremely fresh. I have friends that don't care for the eggrolls, but I usually get soup. After 5 years of eating there alot, I still am not tired of it. When I move, I will miss Great Wall. It has set the standard for cheap Chinese food for me. read more

This is my favorite Chinese takeout place! There's some space for dining in- it's nothing special. But the food is delicious, a wide variety, great prices, large servings, and fast service. This is our go-to take out place. read more

I've had many chinese restaurants' hot and sour soups and this place has the best one! It is perfect in combination of spicy and saltiness.

Small town Chinese restaurant. The decor is plain and not very welcoming . Service is 'matter of fact' and neither pleasant or unpleasant. My orders have been always correct. The food is tasteful and a nice variety to choose from . Portions are good . I'd like to see the vegetables cut up a little bit smaller and cooked a tad bit longer ( between slightly tender but still have some firmness ). And I'd also like to see the meats cut up a little more instead of the very large pieces . It's hard to eat gracefully , and with plastic utensils, you cannot cut the meat with plastic forks and spoons that are provided . The lunch prices are your best bet and are only available til 3pm. They are closed on Mondays . There is no delivery available. You can only eat in or carry out. read more

Say what you will about various restaurants and everyone has different opinions. Well mine is as follows. First time visiting Great Wall in Wilmore and was not disappointed. We live in Lancaster and the food was not only still hot when we got it home but we have enough for two meals. The food was very delicious and I'm certainly going to be back in the future. Hopefully you find this place as satisfying as me and my wife has. read more

I love Great Wall! My wife and I have eaten here several times since moving to Wilmore. We've had take out and we've also ordered in. Every time the food is fresh and hot, very obvious that the staff just made it. We've had fried rice, cashew chicken, general tso's, broccoli chicken, and the crab rangoons and we'd recommend all of them! The cashew chicken does have a lot of vegetables (almost too much) but still delicious! Decent portion sizes, the crab rangoons come with 7! Great Wall is delicious, check it out! read more

I love Great Wall! Their prices are good, their food tastes great. Some of the best Chinese I've ever had!

The key to Great Wall, as with most generic Chinese take-out places, is knowing what to order. Unless you are personally averse to eating any sort of greens, what you want is fresh vegetables. Most cooks at Chinese take-out places are capable of whipping up decent food, but the demands of most customers fall into two categories: fried food, and gloppy sweet-starchy sauces (think sweet and sour or "brown sauce"). Therefore, customers will get what they order, and too much oil, sugar and starch will give you a not-so-healthy feeling after your meal. You may find (as I do) that your meal satisfaction goes up when you order something with fresh vegetables, like the broccoli beef or beef with Chinese vegetables, because these dishes tend to de-emphasize the oil, sugar and starch without losing any of the taste. (I avoid meat-only entrees, like the black pepper chicken, because they tend to be cooked with more oil.) Great Wall does a decent job. Portions are good here and prices are cheap. Service is courteous and the dining room is small and comfortable, though there may be a little bit of a wait. Seeing as there are few other Chinese options around, you can't really lose with Great Wall. read more

This is a good, small-town Chinese restaurant. This is a very good place for take out, and has a few tables for indoor seating. I wouldn't consider this to be the highest quality food, but it is overall good. They don't have a wide selection of vegetarian meals, though they do have some options. I occasionally eat here for dinner or lunch. There is not a lot of restaurant competition in Wilmore. This is place is good for sit down or take-out, relatively inexpensive, American-Chinese food. read more

Their crab Rangoons used to taste good, but they changed their recipe and the last few times I've ordered them they taste funky. I love spicy food, but if you ask for spicy they say they can do it, but the food comes out with no kick to it. I'd rather they say they don't do spicy food than to claim that they do and then not do it. read more

My husband and myself have lived in Wilmore for only a short time. There are not many places to choose from. But we dont mind. We LOVE Great Wall!!! We eat there at least twice a week. Whether its lunch or dinner, its always fresh and extremely affordable! Would recommend to any chinese food lover! read more

Great Wall Chinese Restaurant - Chinese Near Me - Wilmore, Kentucky

We know good Chinese, and Great Wall is THE best Chinese in the area- Lexington, Nicholascille, Wilmore. Every order is made from scratch with the freshest ingredients and sauces! Their egg rolls are crisp and light! Our favorites are garlic chicken and garlic beef! But, everything we have ever orders has been fantastic! Great Wall is the REAL deal! It's worth the drive to Wilmore! read more

I want to rate this 5 stars due to the fact that for really cheap you get that Chinese food craving taken care of. No, it's not the best Chinese food I've ever had, it's about on par with any Chinese place I've eaten that wasn't crazy expensive. The people are always friendly, food is ready quickly and hot. I've ordered food 10 mins before they closed and the food tasted fresh. Honestly, I couldn't ask for anything more. read more

We were treated to lunch by our friends last weekend and ordered the sea food plate. It has shrimp, scallops, and crab legs, among other things like vegetables that we like most of all. The crab legs were so old we had to discretely spit them out so we wouldn't embarass our hosts. I will not be eating there again. read more
