Mess Hall Cutie and I had Sunday Brunch Buffet at this well established and popular restaurant. Sundays are busy but had no trouble getting seated immediately. Sundays there is an expanded buffet. More seafood to include their famous "Bang Bang Shrimp", fried Flounder and other semi-spicy delights. There is a hibachi line where you take a plate, pick your fresh meats and veggies and have the chef prepare everything on the hibachi flat top grill. Meat choices are shrimp, fish, chicken with a variety of vegetables. Choice of rice or noodles at the grill. Food is good and hot with a staff attending the buffet line keeping it clean and food replenished. Desert options are better on weekends compared with weekdays. Wait staff were friendly and attentive. Sunday buffet $10.99. This Mess Hall Couple has eaten there several times over the years and will continue to visit with the troops. Mess Hall Review

This restaurant has the best crab ragoon I have ever had, that is why I am giving it four stars. The rest of our meal was okay. I will definitely return for crab ragoon.

I have been going to The Great Wall mid 1990's. Staff always friendly. Service fast, even if you don't call in order. Will specialize orders, I like mine extra spicy no matter what dish I order. Eggs are amazing, not greasy like some and are great cold the next day....always order extra. Their wonton egg drop soup is a must try. Love the Singapore Chow Mei Fun, one order is two meals for me. (Not best photo of it sorry)Never had a bad meal.
