Provided by YP.comThe BEST Chinese food in western Idaho. Service is always friendly and the managers are always ready and willing to help. Staff is very knowledgeable if I have any questions. The price is reasonable and not only do drinks come with but the best Mongolian stir fry also comes included in the price! Great place to take kids because they only charge 65 CENTS per year of age I garuantee there is something on each of their huge buffet tables or salad bar that e evendors the pickiest of kids will gladly eat.

we had all you can eat buffet for our anniversary and one of the waitresses working there should really learn how to serve with an appropriate manner. we weren't sure whether she really had a bad day but she didn't really have to say "for these two" put the bill down on the table for us like smashing down the table and the foods weren't in good conditions mostly made from frozen foods and the sushi there seemed like it was made couple days ago. not coming back here ever again and I'll make sure none of my friends, families, my acquaintances come here.

Had the Buffet. The food was hard could tell it had been out for a long time. It was greasy. I have been there before years ago and it wasn't as bad as this time. I won't go back.

The Buffet here is so good.There is always so much to choose from and i always eat way to much. I also get delivery from here when we dont feel like leaving the house and its always fresh and good.

I got like a stir fry dish, it might have been lomein, it had hairs in it. The rest of the food was so greasy that it literally made me feel sick. I will never recommend this restaurant to anyone nor will I eat there again.

My family and I ate here and enjoyed it very much. The buffet had a great selection and I was impressed with all the fresh fruit available on the salad bar but best of all on top of the buffet you can make your own stir fry like the mongolian stir fry places. Oh yeah, you can even get a steak cooked for yourself like golden corral does. The kidos liked the desert as well they had soft serv ice cream or there's a freezer with four different kinds of ice cream. Also a selection of cakes and pies. All those options and for about ten bucks a person or so how can you go wrong. My family has found its new favorite place to eat. I would recommend the gw to anyone and it inspired me to write this review. Thanks for the great service and many selections!

Provided by YP.comGreat service and food. They kept the food warm and replaced it regularly which is rare at a buffet style restaurant. The service was also exceptional. Thank you for making my experience worthwhile.

I was excited to see another Great Wall appear on Eagle Rd. My family has been fans of this restaurant for years...at least 20 years. We like Twin Dragon, by the Red Lion, and another place that went out of business. The consistency of the food has been great. They expanded and it's even better now.

Okay Ive been going to the great wall restaurant for all my life,since i was four to be exact. We would go every week after church. I am full grown now and IVE NEVER EVER GOTTEN SICK BY THIS PLACE. Its always been greatly satisfying to me and our family. The places that actually have gotten me sick everytime i went was Golden Corral. That is the worst food ever because it is simply american food which is already gross. Check before you go to a restauraunt if your already sick or if you need to go to the runs. maybe youve havent ate all day, thats why your stomach has been hurting. Before you put a cumbersome review here check yourself please because ive been going there 16 years of my life liars.

I can't believe this place has so many positive reviews! The food started out ok, a bit greasy which I'm not a fan of but was ok. Then I go to try one there bbq chicken on a stick...i started chewing and felt something hard...it was a stick...and not from the stick that my chicken was on. Just a broken off chunk of a skewer. Needless to say I was a bit bothered by this. Then i take a bite of one of their shrimp dishes and it was horrid...not sure if it just wasn't cooked or what, but It was soggy and gooey. I let staff know about the stick and shrimp and they said that they are running low on shrimp so they've been using "low grade" shrimp...I just don't know. They gave us 10% off our bill but I don't think i'd go there again. To each their own.

First off, if I could give it a zero, I would!!! WORST CHINESE FOOD I'VE EVER HAD. Didn't know you could ruin Chinese food, but these people seriously make the worst food of all time. Not only was the food ($27 total) a completely bland, yet rotten, flavor but it made my boyfriend very sick the next day! I couldn't eat more than a few bites of mine and it was a total waste of money. I've never written a review before, but I wouldn't even make my worst enemy eat this food. I'd even recommend wet cat food for dinner over this. Eat this at your own risk. If you do, you'll regret it ALL day the next day.

I have been eating at the Great Wall since I was born and I still haven't found a Chinese buffet better than this one to this day. I have never been sick from eating at this establishment. The food is amazing. I crave the pork fried rice, general's chicken and their mixed chow mien almost everyday. The service is always so friendly and up beat. I recommend the Great Wall Restaurant to everyone.

I really wanted Chinese food so we grabbed the kids and went to Great Wall for the first time. The restaunt itself looked clean and inviting. The prices were very reasonable. I liked the decor and the food spread looked like it had a lot to offer. I especially liked to see the fresh mongolian wok section. The food was decent, the noodles seemed a little stale, some of the food had too much sauce on it. I barely got done eating when my stomach starting to feel uneasy. I coudlnt make it out of the restaraunt before making an emergency run to the bathroom. then we got home, my wife had the same problem but she seemed a little worse. An hour later my oldest son was also in the bathroom complainign about cramps and stomach problems. The final was my 3 year old son, I got a call from his daycare that he was vomiting. I would not eat here again unfortunatley.

dude really? you're a pervert. why would someone want to go to a family restaurant with a bunch of guys wagging hard dicks. its rude and degrading. the great wall has wonderful fresh food and beautiful ornaments and happy and friendly waitresses. if someone really wanted to hear a review like that they'd be looking at erotic city or the torch. not here.

Ive benn going to Great Wall since I was like 7yrs. old, and have never had a problem with food or service. We have a family member that lives about 800 miles away, and evertime he comes down to visit, he always wants to go to the Great Wall. ...BTW I love the BBQ Chicken on the stick! Woot!

I haven't eaten at this restruant for yrs due to MSG and heart attacks. But I ordered delivery tonight, I was feeling adventureous; and they never let me down. The food was everything I remember, and more. I could not eat it all the portions are so big; great for delivery for most restruants skimp on delivery; they do not. I would recommend this restruant to you if you are really a chinese food eater.

My wife and I eat out ~monthly. We ask each other each time, where we would like to go and eat. Ironically, each of us usually start with the name of another restaurant,usually a different ethnic fare..... however, when we are checking them off our list,( well "I" don't feel like mexican food tonight, or "I" don't feel like italian or thai or what ever the other of us is suggesting...) we always agree on the chinese food at the "Great Wall" restaurant. The food is yummy, the service staff pass by your table often if you need anything. They DON'T bug you if you don't. The food is not very expensive. I wouldn't eat there if it was. We live in the south central area, so it's very convenient. They recently expanded. All in all, it's a pretty good restaurant. It's not at all fancy, so if you're looking for fancy chinese food it aint there. It IS really good chinese food though.

Provided by YP.comThe shrimp are delightful, and The Great Wall has the best egg-drop soup around, as well as the thickest-stuffed Rangoon. The fried rice is pretty good, and the stir fry is the BEST tasting and the best choice of ingredients around. The one thing that really needs improving is the restroom. It is not in the best shape, is small and smells bad. I keep going back, though, since the food is reliably tasty.
