For fast food delivery Chinese, this place is very consistent and delicious! I order often on Doordash and sometimes go in to pick up the order. The orders are always correct and the food is always good. There's always a good amount of sauce on foods with sauce and not too little and not drowning. The rice has always been good and never the burnt or dried out edges that some places will serve. the dish I order most is general tso's chicken! read more

Me and my family have been coming here since day one. The food used to be fantastic but whatever is going on now is unacceptable. The quality of food has been going down for years and I got the seasame chicken combo today. The sauce isn't as good as it used to be and the chicken is dry on the inside with too much breading. It really is a shame what has happened to this place I hope they make better decisions in the future. read more

This little hole in the wall Chinese takeout place is something you'd miss if you weren't looking closely. One of the things that stood out to me is how clean the restaurant is. You're greeted by a sweet lady that knows the ins and outs of her menu. I saw here greeting guests and repeat customers as if they were family! Felt homey and definitely appreciate that aspect as I looked through the menu. I decided to get my usual, General Tso's chicken and subbed the fried rice for beef lo mein. Portion size was the perfect amount and was great value for the price. I was also happy with how fresh and hot my food was made to order. Flavoring of the sauce was a bit lighter than I'm used to, but that's just personal preference. I'll definitely be coming back here if I'm in the area and wanting some Chinese food! read more

We always do Chinese take out on Sunday and was on wrong side of town to our normal place. It's your typical take out place with all the usual food suspects. Overall the food was ready quickly, store was clean. Food was just OK. Not bad but not great. The hunan chicken was chock full of celery, which I don't eat. Picked it out piece by piece and it filled 1/2 a quart size rice box. Might eat there again but in no rush. read more

Had the Singapore mei fun, it was delicious. Spicy as it should be. The wonton egg drop mix soup was okay, wonton had different taste than it normally does but not terrible. The only complaint is the crab Rangoon... barely any filling, it was mostly dough. The little filling it had was delicious, just wish there were more of it. Overall would recommend, I'll be back to try other dishes. read more

Green Lake used to be really good but as of recently they've gone down majorly in quality. This was the second time this week i've had shrimp shells in my house lo mein. And if you're not watching they'll try to put something in your food bc they're upset with your complaint! It used to be a great little spot and now it's just untrustworthy. read more

I wanted to like this place, because it's so close to home. The interior was clean in appearance, the food was ready in a timely manner, and the lady working there was lovely. This was worth a star. The main reason I was there was for the food, and it was lacking in taste. I ordered the beef with mixed vegetables combo. For the egg roll, the wrapper was tough and the filling was dry. My beef in the entree was tender but tasteless and fatty. It was a lighter color than what I am used to beef being. This seemed to be low quality beef. The fried rice was basic. My husband ordered food here this past weekend, and thought the food was not good. Of course, he didn't tell me this until after I had placed my order online. read more

Green Lake - 56. Beef with Mixed Vegetables - Chinese Near Me - Jacksonville, Florida

I was recommended this place by two of my friends and decided on a whim to try it. Upon walking in, I was greeted by a super nice lady. I ordered the General Tso Chicken (extra spicy) lunch special. The lunch special comes with fried rice and a cheese wonton. I also ordered my fiancé the Sesame Chicken lunch special and a side order of cheese wontons. The food was cooked really quick! I only had to wait like 15 minutes after I ordered and everything was ready. Super friendly staff! Cheese wontons were crispy, delicious, and full of cheese and crab. I like how they don't skim on the filling over here like most places and their sweet and sour sauce was just right! The General Tso Chicken was pretty good, but it wasn't spicy at all in my opinion. I'm taking off one star because I literally only had one big piece of broccoli and it wasn't a good piece. Also, the sauce wasn't as spicy as I hoped it would be. However, they gave me a lot of chicken and the sauce was still good despite not being as spicy! It came with a lot of fried rice too which tasted great! I saved some leftovers and heated it back up and the food was still yummy! My fiancé didn't enjoy his Sesame Chicken as much as he thought it was over-salted, but I tasted it and it was fine to me. He doesn't like a lot of salt in his food. Honestly, for the price of $6 and some change, their lunch specials are a deal! Food is decent, service is friendly, and they give you alot for your buck so I wouldn't mind coming here again! read more

Green Lake - General Tso Chicken Lunch Special - Chinese Near Me - Jacksonville, Florida

This place is legit. I'm back three times in the first week to order the exact same thing! Stellar items: the sesame chicken, general tso's chicken, shrimp with broccoli, crab rangoons, egg rolls just to name a few. The lunch special is unbeatable- a huge selection of dishes, plus fried rice and a crab Rangoon for under ten dollars. They're quick, friendly, and the takeout containers are also nice to reuse. I'm hooked! read more

Green Lake - L27. Sesame Chicken - Chinese Near Me - Jacksonville, Florida

I stop by Green Lakes for take out often. My favorite dish is Tofu with Broccoli and Shrimp Egg Foo Yong. All the menu items I've tasted have been very good. I usually call to order the Tofu dish as it's not on the menu. Otherwise ordering online is very convenient. You can also pay online or at the store. Samantha is very efficient and when they say 10 minutes for pick up you usually don't have to wait longer than that. You can also eat at the store but seating is very limited. With all the building renovations at this mall the restaurant has moved from next to the Metro Diner to a store front across from Publix. They share the parking lot with Publix and other stores so it is always busy. Be extra careful when getting in & out of the parking lot. Good job Green Lakes for consistency in the quality & taste of food produced 7 days a week. read more

Green Lake - Tofu with Broccoli and Shrimp Egg Foo Yong. Healthy comfort food. - Chinese Near Me - Jacksonville, Florida

I stopped by this restaurant again for a quick meal. They are super fast with the orders. They are currently pick-up only and have a nice little window where you can pay and pick up your food. Just call in for your order and pick up. They aren't rude on the phone either like some other places. I got the beef and brocolli with lo mein. My go to is usually the general Tsos chicken but I decided to not have any fried stuff with breading. The beef and brocolli with noodles were seasoned perfectly. Very great taste and texture. The food was not too greasy like other chinese fast food places. I'm definitely coming again and would recommend to others for some good chinese take out. read more

I just ordered Szechuan chicken, it tastes like fish, and has very little brown sauce. I called to complain and receive some type of credit for the next visit since I drive about 26 miles round trip when ordering from this establishment. El, the manager offered me a free egg roll next visit. I told her that was unacceptable since I spent over $22 and she told me that I could drive back before 9:30 pm (currently 7:40) and they would be willing to prepare another dish. I told her that they would lose me as a customer and we order from their quite frequently. She responded, "ok". I will NOT order from this establishment again and suggest that you taste your food prior to leaving if you order takeout. read more

The most stars in the area for Chinese joints in a 10 mile radius, so with my handy dandy Yelp app in hand I set out to see if it was better. We arrived indecisive and their patience was thick, that was greatly appreciated. Our order: veggies in brown sauce dinner combo with shrimp fried rice and a cheese wonton instead of a egg roll, orange chicken dinner combo and chicken on a stick with fried rice. I went back up to the counter to add a order of cheese wontons and she was already putting them in my bag, COMPLIMENTARY!! Free food always makes my night!!!! So thank you for your great customer service. The ONLY con is that my vegetables were basically raw, almost like they weren't sautéed at all so I sautéed them myself for another 10 minutes. If it wasn't for that they would've gotten 5 stars!! read more

Good food. Great service. Lots of choices. Reasonable price. Love the general tso chicken and Lo Mein.

Kind of expensive for what I ordered. 2 items, sweet and sour chicken and chicken lo mein, both smalls and it was $21. My regular place was closed so I tried this because it's also closer to my house. I know if my regular place was open I would have got the same thing both large. For $18. Food was very bland. Disappointed and it was my first time there. read more

The best Chinese takeout!! So grateful to have them in our neighborhood. The food is consistently delicious and the staff are always friendly. Every time we order they throw in free fried cheese wontons. I've never had any other restaurant do that. Support local and get you some Green Lake!! read more

Best chines food in town! Service is always amazing and friendly. Ambiance is nice. Definitely recommend!

Raise your hand if you know all about my Chinese takeout cravings at this point. (Hands raised? Good, now we can move on.) I was ecstatic when we stumbled upon Green Lake Chinese Restaurant on Yelp after a number of tedious errands. I was even more intrigued once I read the reviews, because although a four star rating was slapped on their page, it was a mixed bag from Elites. The [presumed] owner and remainder of the staff were impeccably friendly and rather hilarious. There were a handful of awards on the walls, and of course, those infamous Chinese takeout menu board photographs. The 3 stars comes down to the overall flavor of our dishes, which left a lot to be desired. The Kung Po Chicken was edible, but packed with peanuts. The dish resembled more of a Kung Po Peanut, due to the skimpy portion of chicken. The Pork Fried Rice? I've had better, I've had worse. Ultimately it satisfied the craving. The saving grace were the mega-sized Egg Rolls, which were warm, crisp, and overstuffed with love! Do you not get excited about Egg Rolls like I do??? Just an A-OK from me for my first experience at Green Lake. read more

I am never disappointed with the food. Always fresh and so very flavorful. Very clean and if you order on line the orders are always correct. This is a great place to order a wonderful and fast Chinese dinner! read more

OK, keep in mind this rating is for fast food Chinese. It is a solid 4/5 stars for its category. Many people would see it as a negative that they don't deliver but it's worth the effort to pick it up. They are really quick when you place your order and your food can be ready in 15 minutes, sometimes less. If you want it ready later in the day, they can make that happen to, just let them know when you will be in. They keep track of your orders by your phone number so always use the same one and once you become a regular they will start hooking you up with extras (egg rolls, extra wontons, etc) We typically order the large wonton egg drop soup, cream cheese wontons, and general tso's chicken. It is enough for four people. It is our Chinese takeout go to and our New Years Day tradition. read more

This is our go-to for local Chinese. The lady here is nice as can be, and spot on with pleasing her customers. Fast and easy Chinese favorites. I only have one little gripe, I don't like her soups because they use a heavier oil base. Ultra clean open kitchen- maybe the cleanest I have seen in fast food. Friendly, flexible, and catering to your tastes- I like Ginger, she says OK! Fast in and out service- less than 10 minutes all the time. No delivery, but there are many other options available. read more

They recently moved to another spot in the same plaza since they are now directly in front of the Publix. I've eaten here before and enjoyed my meal, just never got around to leaving a review. The last time I was here, I did not call ahead and I think their A/C must have been out since it was really hot. They gave me an extra egg roll for the wait. read more

Their food is consistently delicious! Super friendly staff! You can order online which is awesomely convenient or call and it takes maybe 2 minutes to order and it's done in less than 10 minutes! Did I mention how delicious the food is?! Only negative is they don't deliver, but trust me, it's worth the drive! read more

I walked in and the staff was very friendly and polite, so were the customers. The line was at the door and there were officers waiting for their order so I thought that was a good sign. I ordered chicken and broccoli which is what I test a restaurant on. As you can see from the photo it looks like a lot of food for a lunch special. Well it's not as it seems the chicken and broccoli are sitting on a bed of rice. The food was fresh and hot, broccoli was perfectly cooked and still crunchy. On to the flavor scale of the brown sauce from a 1-10 I'd give this sauce a 6.5. It had the perfect amount if salt but something was missing and I can't put my finger on it. The rice was average. read more

Ate here multiple times a week for years, literally not once had an issue, and they're super reasonably priced!!

Was out looking for some good fried rice this particular night. This was my second stop. Just my opinion but wasn't impressed with the rice or the honey chicken. The honey chicken came with the honey on the side. I was looking for the honey chicken that they do in the mall; it's usually crunchy. I liked the egg roll. The food wasn't bad, but lacked some flavor. read more

Got sick. The food was fantastic and so was the service. I had orange chicken,chicken wings, cream cheese wontons and spring roll. After a couple of hours of eating I got food poisoning. It was the only food I ate that day so I know it came from here. It's disappointing because the food was good. I'll never eat here again. read more

Good food, accurate orders, prepared well. I have used both delivery & pickup. Good show!

I wanted to try another Chinese restaurant asides from the usual ones I go to on the westside and based on the reviews, I decided on Green Lake Chinese. What's cool is you can order online from their website which is nice; however, it was just as easy for me to pick up the phone and make my order. The website is actually great to know your options, their prices, for special instructions & to get you psyched up for some good Chinese food. It's a nice convenience. :) Like always, I ordered the General Tso's Chicken & an Orange Chicken and they were both delicious! They do offer healthier options, too, but I was in my "sauced up fried chicken" mode. Like other reviewers have said, this is a great place for take-out with very friendly service. The food is fresh and fast! There is ample parking as it is located in the same block of the Publix shopping center, but closer to Roosevelt in the back left hand corner--it's kinda' hidden so you have to look. The best part is that they are open late. Overall, great experience and I would definitely order from here again. read more

Tonight was my second time ordering from this establishment. My first time was about a month ago. I wont forget when I couldn't use my debit for a drink, the manager/owner/sweet lady running the joint suggested that since I had tipped her she would just take it out of that. Happy me. Upon arriving home I discovered that I had a double order of the seafood cheese roll that I had ordered. Even happier me! Tonight I ordered for myself and my mother-in-law this visit was just cut and dry Wok in Wok out(pun intended) but again they gave me free food. This time was an order of cheese wontons. HAPPY ME AGAIN! sorry no pics. But so far I have eaten the shrimp curry, seafood roll, cheese wonton, gen. Tso chicken and beef and broccoli. phew, that was a mouthful. read more

Was ALWAYS wonderful and outstanding for more than fifteen years of dining until last night. Glop. Brown glop. Gone were the bright beautiful fresh vegetables, artfully arranged shrimp, scallops, Pork and chicken of the Happy Family offering. Called and told new cook. Twenty years experience.
