| - Who doesn't love a hole in the wall? Thats about what Great Wall is. An old hole in the wall with a good menu and a fair price. You can come in here and get a lunch with rice, entree and an egg roll for around $6. You can tell the regulars in here because the wait staff know them by name. To me, it always says a lot when you have regulars in a place like this.
I don't know that I am up to true regular status here but I am in enough to know what I like from the menu. I've had the almond chicken, moo goo gai pan, vegetable won ton soup, hot and sour soup, paper wrapped chicken. All the standards really. I love the won ton soup. It is one of my favorite soups if done right. Here at Great Wall it is done right with a ton of full won tons, a clear clear broth and a salad bar worth of vegetables. There is bok choy, carrots, mushrooms, water chesnuts, bamboo, pea pods. It is delicious and surprisingly filling even when you get a small order.
This is not the best Chinese food around but it is good. And for me, it is convenient for lunch. It reminds me of the Chinese place I grew up eating at back home. That is never a bad thing.
