Great Wall Chinese Restaurant

After eating at several other restaurants in Chinatown, this has become the go to place for great food, great portions and a great price.  The duck is among the best, with crispy skin and very meaty,  when the dishes come out, we always comment on how much food comes for the price.  The wonton noodles soups are very good and we share it with dinner.  The singapore noodles and chow mein dishes are excellent.  We have never had a disappointing dish here and this is about the cheapest place in all of Chinatown and one of the best imho.  It is small and seems fairly empty most of the time, but don't let that discourage you from visiting this hole in the wall.  This was Chinatown, before the newcomers came and bought up the old places and renovated them!

1st timer. Tried lunch special pork chop with onions not enuf meat mostly bones like 6 pieces over lots of rice with onion and soggy with egg
Also ordered the BBQ with egg over rice which is good
The chow fun with chicken n BBQ pork n vegetable taste ok but looks yucky the chow fan was like pasted together
Maybe will just order the BBQ pork next time
No more lunch special for me

Food - 4 stars.
Service - 2 stars...

I used to enjoy this hole in the wall Chinatown establishment, been coming here for years.  This is your no-frills, in-and-out Chinese restaurant when you want a plate of delicious BBQ meat with rice.  The service was minimal but warm, they used to have a couple middle aged ladies as server before, and they were always nice and friendly.  

I want to say up until maybe 1.5 - 2 years ago, a skinny, aloof, younger girl started working there full time, and she became the reason that I stopped going there.  I always paid cash when I came here, I really don't want Great Wall to pay credit card transaction fees when their prices are dirt cheap already.  But more than one time, when Meager Mandy gave my change back, it was short-changed.  

So the last time I was there, I decided to pay by credit card, when she brought back my card for me to sign, she stood by my table and waited for me to sign.  I was texting that time and she stood there for a good 15 seconds.  I could only assume she wanted to make sure I give her enough tip.  Maybe she was burnt many times by cheap customers, but this is really not the way to make up for it.
