Great Wall — Restaurant in New Baltimore

Great Wall

Aug 29, 2025 Decided to try this place out. This place also had good reviews. Here goes the test.

They are still in the Covid phase. No dine in. Still have take out available. The walls and face shields are still up. Not as busy as Leong's 23 Chinese Restaurant at lunch. I was the only guest getting take out. The location is pretty far out east too. Prices are a little more than Leong's 23 Chinese Restaurant. Fast service. No issues. They speak decent english.

The taste. I ordered the schwean/szechuan chicken combo. Tasted good. Slightly different than Leong's 23 Chinese Restaurant. I can tell they used "garlic with chili oil" for the schwean/szechuan chicken. Not necessary for this dish. Good eggrolls. Same dipping sauce but a little on the sour side. Needs a little water to fix taste. The combo plate had less food than expected.

All in all both this place and Leong's 23 Chinese Restaurant make good chinese food. Try one, or try both. Both are good enough for my taste. Trust me, these two places are above average. Other places I've been to have been worse.

I've lived in Saginaw for about 20 years of my life and we make some good Chinese food. I've had the best Chinese food. Bar none. I've been a dishwasher for a good Chinese restaurant, waiter, and a cook. I know my menu and how each dish should taste. I'm an Asian restaurant guy and a major Chinese food cook and critic. I was raised on Chinese food. I worked at many different Chinese restaurant. My uncles own about 10-20 Chinese restaurant in upper...

This review is regarding 2 Thai food dishes & Crab Rangoon. We were absolutely desperate for Thai food that was closer, so decided to give this place a try. Worst decision ever. First, we always get crab rangoon. Here, it was disgusting. He cracked one open and asked if they forgot to stuff it. There was so little inside that was like less than a teaspoon in each. And dry. Then I went and cracked one open and it literally dripped 12 drops of oil.. from one rangoon. Couldn't eat those! Now for the Thai food. To be safe, with it being new to us, I decided to go with the most basic and easy Thai dish.. pad thai. They don't even know how to make that. There were carrots, celery, green pepper, water chestnuts, pea pods, mushrooms, and onions in it along with an overabundance of bean sprouts, which is supposed to be in it.. just not that much. By the time I picked all the veggies out that weren't supposed to be in there, all I could taste was chicken and bean sprouts and spice. Speaking of, I got mild plus and it was relatively right on, maybe mild plus plus. He got his dish of pad ped extra hot, but it was more like almost hot. Now, about his pad ped. Wrong again.. it had no eggplant in it which is a key ingredient of pad ped. It actually had all the same vegetables that were in my dish. If we ever have this desperate need again.. and my advice to any of you, is if you want to order Thai from here, tell them exactly what you want in it. Then it might...

Years ago my family and I frequently ate here with my grandmother and stopped once she passed. That was well before covid and it was a strange place, but had good food. I recently started going back and decided won't ever go back again. Some of the food portions are weird (slivers of meat instead of pieces, not much meat even after we had asked for extra meat) and the service has completely left the building. The lady that works the front counter is standoff ish and not sociable. Comes across rather rude. Then we tried to come in one night before their scheduled closing time where they were standing at the window and before we could reach the door - they ran, locked the door, shut off the lights, and hid in the back. As we walked away we could see them peeking around the sheet that they have hung up. I can understand turning people away, but the way they did it was just rude. Which, after covid they closed their in-store dinning area which is now blocked by a bed sheet hanging by a string. So you have barely a like 2ft by 2ft space to stand to order, pick up food, etc. If you catch a quick peek through a small window in their entrance way you can see the dinning area is set up/looks more like a living room. They lost my families and my business. I'd say eat here at...
