Great China Restaurant

Hands down, still the best in town. However I miss it when it was a big place. more

It was about a month ago, Pros: closes early Cons: RUDE more

We went by the Great China after a long hiatus only to find that they have turned over the restaurant side to a Mexican place and are evidently remodeling the old lounge into a restaurant space. A Chinese couple standing nearby said it would be several weeks before they were ready to open again. more

Ate at this restaurant May 4, 2005. I was pleased with the experience. The waiters were friendly and attentive. I placed my order and was soup. After the soup, service of food was slow. However, when my food arrived it made up for the delay. I had sesame chicken. It was served on large plate with compartments. The chicken was a bit spicy but not excessive. It came with tempura vegies (I had never had them before) plus a cabbage salad and a huge mound of fluffy white rice. Portions are generous! I was given a second soft drink without requesting it. I would eat there again. Next time I will try brocoli beef and pork fried rice. Lunch specials are about $6 and with a soft drink you pay less than $8. I give a 4 1/2 star rating-- taking 1/2 star off for slow delivery of food. Pros: Delicious Food, Good Portions, Inexpensive Cons: Service is slow more

The food was great for a suburban chinese place! The portions are plentiful for their price, explaining why we always have left-overs for lunch the next day. Now, they have a new vegetarian menu that is just a delight addition to the traditional dishes. These new dishes are no where to be found in Portland! When ordering to-go, it still blows my mind how fast they come out with the order. Pros: Fast service, Inexpensive, Relaxed atmosphere Cons: In Beaverton more

The food was just OK. Wasn't as bad as Wu's Open kitchen in using the same sauce for every dish but it was close. The food came fast but the waiter was not very attentive, luckily someone else was filling up the water glasses. The ambiance was pretty old and cheezy and the place had an ""odor"" to it. Pros: Price was reasonable, Better than Hi Hat Cons: Unattentive waiter more
