The food itself was good. The people were nice. Was a little pricey for lunch for me. Everything was extra, eggroll, drink, soup. Most places serve that with lunch. Besides that its a good stop if yiu wanna pay a bit more

Absolutely a five-star restaurant! What impressed me most was their service—they truly have an eye for the needs of their guests. When we accidentally knocked over a glass, the staff came to help clean up immediately, without showing the slightest impatience, and even proactively asked if we needed a replacement. This kind of thoughtfulness greatly enhanced our dining experience. Of course, the presentation and taste of the dishes were also on point—the sauerkraut fish slices were truly memorable. A restaurant run with such care definitely deserves our support!

Best in the city for its style. They have authentic dishes, and Americanized dishes. I ordered apps and entrees to go for 4 and a beer while I waited. The gentleman behind the counter asked me to sit in a private dining room while I waited. When he came in with my beer, he also gifted me with a marinated cucumber salad that I’m at a loss of words to describe. He said it went good with beer, and he knew what he was talking about. The sauce was sweet, spicy, and fresh. It also had cilantro, garlic, and peanuts. The cucumber was fresh and crisp. My wife and I will be back soon, and we are definitely starting with that cucumber salad.

01/17/26 we usually have a great experience eating here. We dined with a party of six during lunch hours. i ordered the kung pao beef lunch special, but because i said special there was unfortunately a misunderstanding. i received the kung pao chicken and shrimp, which wasn’t a big deal, but i asked to have it remade as what i ordered. the server tried to tell me that i ordered wrong, even though i clearly said beef, but he had the order remade anyway. by the time it was made again, everyone else had received their dishes and i was the only one not eating. the second time my food came out, there was a thick black hair on the plate. we sent it back immediately, and they took it to the kitchen and put the same food on a different plate. i know this because the rice comes out usually on the plate shaped by a bowl, and it was just slid off with a fork and lost its original shape. i ended up not eating at all. they never checked in after bringing it out the third time, and i didn’t take a single bite. i had lost my appetite. we ended up being charged for both the chicken and shrimp combo, and the kung pao beef with the hair. i will not be bringing my business here again after today.

This is a nice sit-down restaurant that also does take-out. We unintentionally showed up 30 minutes before they closed for their lunch period, but we asked if it would be alright to dine in, and they said yes. I appreciated that so I tipped pretty well for them being accommodating. Service was very attentive and the food came out quickly, which I expected since we came before they were supposed to close. I got the pork lo mein plate with steamed white rice, as well as an egg roll. The egg roll was a little bland in my opinion, but the lo mein was AMAZING! The white rice tasted nice, too. The amount of food was enough for at least two meals, so I took home leftovers as well. They reheated quite well. The inside of the restaurant is absolutely beautiful with the decorations and red seats. I would definitely come back here!

After some days in Tuscaloosa, Alabama, and then Anderson and Clemson, South Carolina, where we encountered some of the most unpalatable food imaginable, it was such a pleasure to find Great Wall Chinese restaurant in Birmingham. It has been voted the best Chinese restaurant in Alabama, and with good reason. The food is real, authentic, and tasty. We had lamb with green chili, stir-fried rice cake with Napa cabbage, and braised dried bean curd sticks with black mushroom and tofu (all pictured below). Every dish was delicious, as were the pot stickers with which we began, and the amounts were so generous that we have a second take-out meal for tomorrow. Service was friendly, courteous, and prompt, and the atmosphere of the place very pleasant. I highly recommend it.

I have never been disappointed when I order at Great Wall. The food is always fresh and taste good. I Love the Shrimp Fried Rice and they will add any additional items when you ask. This place has been around a very long time, I recall eating there in 1990.
Great Food, Great Job to Great Wall!

Hands down, the best meal we’ve had in forever. We ordered the whole fish and the sizzling rice soup, and I genuinely wish I could rate it 10 out of 5—because this meal deserves it. The fish? Crispy, tender, perfectly spiced, and absolutely stunning to look at and eat. Layers of heat, garlic, and herbs with charred edges that had us leaning in for more. The sizzling rice soup is also so good.

When we picked it up, the staff kindly checked in—“Are you sure? And it’s a whole fish.” Let me tell you: YES. We were sure. And they delivered the sexiest, most satisfying meal we’ve had in a hot minute. Every bite was full of bold flavor and joy.

Great Wall, you are doing the most, and we are so here for it. Will 1000% be ordering again.

It is very difficult to find authentic Chinese food in the South. Most Chinese restaurants around here are so heavily geared toward the American palate that they taste like something different altogether. I’m not Chinese and didn’t have Chinese food that wasn’t the equivalent of fast food until my teens. Once I had authentic Chinese food, I was hooked. I travel all the time, and finding true quality Chinese food away from the West Coast or New England isn’t easy, but I found this place recommended highly online, and was absolutely thrilled with what I found.

This is the real deal, folks. If your conception of Chinese food started at a buffet, you’re about to discover a whole new world of cuisine. Some of the menu will include things you’ve never seen before, but I’ve probably tried half of it at this point, and I haven’t had a bad meal yet. Anything that says it’s spicy is actually spicy, which is a rarity in the South. The Great Wall is on par with some of my favorite restaurants in San Francisco. I live in the Florida Panhandle and have to drive nearly 4 hours to get to Birmingham, but the Great Wall is by far the best Chinese restaurant within a four hour radius of me.

I don’t know how to give it higher praise than that. Fantastic.
