Great and quick service, and a bang for your buck! I got Combo C, which was a select your 3 items. It's been 3 meals so far :)

This one is in the rotation because it's close to work. Never order the Orange Chicken because the other fast food chain is better but the other dishes here are great. Not fancy but sometimes you want comfort and this is the spot for it. Super friendly and love to support local. read more

Great Wall Express - Fried Rice, Lo Mein, Three Piece Garlic Chicken Wings, Teriyaki Chicken - Chinese Near Me - San Diego, California

I came here after a book event at Mysterious Galaxy, I had been wanting Chinese food so I was excited to see that there was still food. The cost of the food was really reasonable and when I asked the cashier if she preferred the pork belly over the chicken teriyaki I should have listend when she said chicken. I ended up getting the two item combo with noodles, for my proteins I got orange chicken and the pork belly. The noodles were good, had some nice flavor, but man was everything pretty underwhelming. The pork belly was salty and tough, I found it really inedible and it had hard boiled eggs and I kid you not they were hard as rocks, I threw it on my table at home and it made such a loud thumping sound. She did try to warn me that it was salty, but to have it out knowing it's saltiness is strange. I really wanted to like the orange chicken but it was more dough than chicken, maybe the food wasn't as good as I had anticipated because it was later in the evening but man, I do not think I will be back. read more

Visited on a weekday afternoon. We were the only customers but were greeted hospitably. Ordered 2 of the Combo B's that comes with a fountain drink: - Sweet & sour chicken - Orange chicken - Mushroom chicken - BBQ pork - Lo mein The highlights were definitely the Lo Mein and the BBQ Pork. Though the Orange chicken was a bit soggy, I will commend them for their meat to batter ratio. I was craving greasy, comforting Chinese fast food, and this place hit the spot. read more

Small mom and Pop. The gentleman that served us was amazing and the service was incredible. We ordered takeout, but everything was clean. Portions are large, food is good, and affordable. A 2 entree and side "plate" was very filling. Would go back. read more

Food was old and mushy. I always come here but the last few times was not so great. Credit card also requires a charged too.

Great Wall Express at Rosecrans Center is an absolute gem! We found ourselves in a bind when a vendor backed out of a same-day catering order--but Great Wall Express stepped in and saved the day! Not only did they take the last-minute order without hesitation, they went above and beyond to make sure everything was handled smoothly and professionally. Kim was incredibly helpful and friendly throughout the entire process, and the cook got our food out quickly without compromising on quality. You can tell everything is made fresh and in-house daily--the flavors were amazing, and the food was clearly prepared with care. It's obvious the employees take pride in both the quality of their dishes and the service they provide. On top of that, the prices are extremely reasonable for the value you get. Whether you're ordering for a group or just stopping in for a meal, this is a spot you definitely don't want to miss. We're so grateful for their willingness to help us out when they didn't have to--and we'll absolutely be back! Highly recommend! read more

The Great Wall serves authentic Chinese cuisine! Prices are very fair and portions are generous. The shrimp lo mein is a favorite and sweet and sour chicken too! Parking lot is free and service is quick and friendly. Have been here several times and never disappointed! read more

Very disappointing customer service. I called to place an order and was rushed off the phone in less than two minutes. I wasn't even given enough time to properly order my food before the call was basically ended. If you're taking orders over the phone, customers should be given the time and courtesy to actually place their order. Definitely not the experience I expected, and I won't be ordering from here again. read more

Fine for a quick bite of fast food Chinese. I usually stick with the jalapeño wings and cream Cheese wontons. read more

Highly recommend this place. The food was amazing and fresh. Not to mention how affordable it is. They have been there for 38 years. This place was amazing. read more

The hot and sour soup is nothing but egg and tofu. No meat, no mushrooms, no bamboo shoots. 10.00!! However the buffet style food is pretty good for cheap Chinese. Pick 1,2 or 3. read more

Ordered the party special trays for our team lunch and it was great! The lady who helped me upfront was very nice and resourceful. I wad very pleased to know we could obtain 6 different trays and do some substitutions for a very affordable pricing. It included, lo main, orange chicken, broccoli and beef, egg rolls, rice and I added a side of garlic wings. Our team loved the food! The only reason why I would give 4 stars is because I was mentioned that party trays does not include soy sauce or any sauces to go with the rolls- I would expect for these to be included as these are always given when ordering. read more

Today's cook (2025 FEB 24 evening) did very well. Food arrived via delivery fresh and hot. Food was seasoned perfect, not salty. Vegetables not mushy, good snap to the bite. Good price/value for inexpensive Americanized-Chinese take-out meals. read more

Hands down one of THE best mom and pop Chinese food spots around. It's located in a small shopping center in Point Loma...aka a hidden gem next to UPS. I've come a few times with my mom (who lovessss their wonton soup) both during the week and weekends. This time my fiancé and I were craving it but too lazy to drive down, so we ordered via Door Dash. The food arrived in a timely manner, hot like it was made to order and tasted amazing. I mean maybe I was just starving, but I feel like that's the best it's ever tasted. Who knows, guess I'll just have to go back and see! What I do know is, if you haven't placed your order by now, you're failing! read more

First, customer service is a 10/10. Kim is always extremely friendly. Always a pleasure seeing her. Food is great for the price. BBQ pork is my favorite. Reason for the 2 star review is the fan is not working in the seating area. We can't eat there and even ordering in the heat isn't great. Please fix the fan and I will be happy to change my review. read more

Skip this place unlike you like bland food & bad attitudes. I was just there and the very unhappy woman shouldn't come into contact with customers. Sloppy 2 item container that leaked all over the place. Mushy veggies in Vegetable Chicken. Seemed really put out when I asked for napkins & sauce for my fried wontons. So bent out of shape that she didn't put Soy sauce nor chopsticks or forks in the messy bag. No way I'd consider returning. read more

I want to start out by pointing out the positives of this restaurant. It's close to San Diego Sea World, it's quick-service affordable food, and the portions are large. Unfortunately, the food itself is not something I'd personally recommend to anyone. The fried rice is not flavorful--I'd describe it as just a step above white rice. The chow mein is even worse--lacked in any depth of flavor. The cashier offered to give me soy sauce which I turned down, but wished I accepted just so I could pour it all over the rice and chow mein. Good fried rice and chow mein shouldn't need those alterations. The teriyaki was more like slow cooker chicken, cooked in broth and saltier than it should be. I'm used to teriyaki chicken that have that sweet and savory flavor that should have that glisten to them. Their orange chicken was lacking in flavor also--some tang to it, but not savory enough. I don't revel in giving them a low rating, but I had to ask myself if I'd ever return and the answer is "no". read more

We thought we were ordering from the Great Wall Express Gaslamp to find the order is from Loma. The first time ordering, combination fried rice, vegetable lo mein, and spring rolls. We were so impressed with the speed of delivery and the quality of the food. The dishes served 3 people with leftovers. I did not know what to expect, but the food was really good. read more

Excellent Chinese pre-made dishes typically served as combination plates with fried rice and/or lo mein noodles.. we ordered the 4 item combination, one of the items being the obligatory starch option, lo mein noodles for us. Teriyaki chicken was tender and perfect salty, savory and sweet. Beef and broccoli had velvety beef thin slices and slightly over-cooked broccoli but delicious even sitting too long in the warmer. Orange chicken was ok, not my favorite for this kind of Chinese Hole-In-The-Wall.. it could've been a little more orange/sweet but still good. Lo mein noodles were definitely good, better than the norm. For $9.99 this is an incredible amount of food easily serving two!! Service was extremely good for a takeout joint, as the employee was very enthusiastic in recommendations and courtesy!! read more

This little hole in the wall place is not too far from Point Loma base. It was quick and easy ordering and when I arrived the food was hot. They had a wide variety of items plus special combos that come with or without the drinks. I only wished that they would include fortune cookies , that's the best part of ending a meal! They're available and come in a package of 4 for a $1, if you're really wanting them like me. I would give it a chance but just a heads up, it's not like Panda Express food. It definitely has a different flavor to some of the classic items like Kung Pao and Orange Chicken! read more

Well so much for this being a legit place.Stopped by here around 3 p.m.. The orange chicken was hard as a rock, the chicken chow mien was hours old. Needless to say I won't be back. Why is it so hard to get decent clean Chinese food around here. Guess I'll have to go to that Panda place. read more

We stopped in last night on a whim and are pleased. It's nothing fancy however it is tasty. I'm pretty spoiled by having friends from various regions of China that would cook non-American style foods and growing up with NY China town quality, however this place is so far the best quality for a great price around. The lady behind the counter was great! I ordered lo mein and she advised i wait 2 minutes for a fresh batch, which i really appreciated. The beef and broccoli was delicious, as was the Orange Chicken. The portion size was quite large for the money (something that isn't that common in this area). The steamed rice was perfectly done and even though it was the very last of their sweet and sour chicken, it didn't taste stale. I'd love to see General T'so on the menu! We will be coming back. read more

If i were you, i would pass on this one. There are a lot of mixed reviews, maybe it depends on when you go... my experience was not a good one. Rude people at restaurants can be forgiven if the food is good. However, for an 11.99 "combo b" meal, i got chicken wings and orange chicken with lo mein. It was significantly below in quality and taste from what i would expect for cheap chinese food. Noodles were hard and flavored very poorly. The chicken wings had a gamey aftertaste, which is odd for chicken wings (like it was fried in old oil) and it was chewy. And the orange chicken was very tough and the sauce stuck to my teeth... i had to smother my food in Sriracha, but it still didn't really help... maybe im spoiled, but probably not. I'd say, save your money on this one and if you want chinese food delivered in this way... go to Panda Express. It will taste way better and you will get more food for your money. read more

I recommend the noodles over the fried rice. The portions were great. Makes me feel good when the styrofoam container gets stuffed full!

Triple threat with great customer service, delicious food, and very good prices! If you like garlic shrimp, this place will not disappoint. read more

I'm all for it! I love these family owned, non-corporate, Asian food spots! Everything is ready to go when you walk in, you choose what you want, and get some generous portions. I enjoyed what I had today which was a 2 item combo with chow mein, mushroom chicken, and sweet and sour chicken. I will definitely be back. Reasonably priced, not over priced like a lot of other places with seriously mediocre a$$ food! And course the customer service was spot on! If it sucked, I would not have given it 5 stars but 4 stars. We bought 4 combo plates.. one 3 item combo and the others were 2 item combos. No drinks since we have some at home. Total: $27!! Yesss!! That's my kind of spot. Combos at Burger King, McDonald's, Panda Express are more expensive than that! read more

I'm giving it 5 stars because I don't understand the bad reviews. It's Chinese take out folks, not fine dining! Geez! I walked in, no one else in line. I apparently missed an insane rush. So yay! The lady was nice. I got the orange chicken and something with mixed vegetables, also with chicken. I like it a lot! I got half noodles and half fried rice with my two items and a bottle of soda. All that for a flat $10. Not bad! I'm done eating and the plate looks like I barely touched it. Ha ha! She gave me a lot of food in this thing. Maybe next time I'll try other things. Looked pretty good! read more
