Spare ribs nothing more than a few knucles so many chucks of pineapple. Special fried rice hunt the chicken prawns pork all in all a very disappointing waste of money. That bad even the dog refused to eat it

Great food but beware, the guy taking your orders has no telephone manners and it can be off-putting.

More money, less food. We always enjoyed our takeaway from this outlet but noticed last time prices had been increased and portion size reduced and no complimentary prawn crackers. Not being put off as we all are facing the financial crises, we put in another order. Couldn’t believe it when it was even more expensive than the last time and the lemon chicken would just about. Have fed a small child. The Singapore fried rice had no flavour let alone any spice. The whole meal was just about Luke warm. We will not be given any more money to this establishment but trying one of their competitors.

We stayed the weekend in Deanwood Camping/caravan site. On the Saturday we decided to get a Chinese for some birthday celebrations. Had to drive 10mins to get to the Chinese as they don’t deliver however we all agreed it was the best Chinese we have ever tasted! Afraid to say it knocked spots of our local Chinese so pretty gutted to be leaving Lydney just for the Chinese. Would 100% recommend and will be returning next time in the area!

Absolutely fantastic, best chinese food I've ever had, now I don't generally like chinese food and usually always go for the same standard thing, but after a long day at work with travel and not wanting to cook, I thought I'd try here, I went for something completely different which appealed to me from the menu, as it was a tester we only ordered 1 portion including main meal, rice and prawn crackers. At home the portion size was so large we were able to split into two for me and the wife, a unexpected shared meal, the food was tasty well cooked. this has changed my view on chinese food and we will be back now we know we'll have a chinese night every month.

I have been to this Chinese multiple times previously and never had a bad experience. But this time was absolutely appalling! Ordered over £40 worth of food, only for it to all be put in the bin. Then when we tried to phone to complain no one answered. As you can see from the images they speak for themselves. Those are meant to be sticky ribs in sauce.. and they were smelly and look absolutely disgusting I wouldn’t even feed my dog those. The Special fried rice (which is my usual order) smelt gone off and was cold. And the chips were dryer than the Sahara desert and stone cold also. Really disappointing as this was my favourite Chinese takeaway. But Kunming will have to be my new favourite as I’ve never had an issue there.

I had the Chicken and Chinese Mushrooms, which was a lovely dish - it had a kick of spice, but not too much. Everything was so fresh, and the chicken from Great Wall is always so tender and high standard. The chips are great, £2 for a massive bag! Which would probably serve 2, at least. Ready in 10 minutes, hot, such a reasonable price. Can’t fault them. Thank you guys.

Ordered from Great Wall at 7:30pm, ready in 15 mins! Best chips I’ve had from a takeaway, the Chicken Curry was delicious and not too heavy or greasy. My brother is vegan and loved the Mushroom Chow Mein. Didn’t need to order two portions of chips, one bag was plenty, for only £2!! Normally feel rough after a takeaway, but feel absolutely fine. Fab service, we’ll defo be back, thanks so much guys x

Very traditional Chinese take away, doesn't have anything fancy such as seaweed, or tofu. But the dish we try are all full of taste, very old style chinese cooking, just reminded me the food we had in my younger year. Not many place does the chow mein dish as high standard as we got from here, normally they either be full of grease or have a strong burning smell. None of that in our meal. Also we try their curry and black bean dish, both are wonderful, I did order extra and I was hoping to have some for tomorrow, but we end up finished all. In short, if you looking fancy Chinese food then you better look elsewere as you won't find much from here, but if you looking for real traditional Chinese food which is full taste then you are in the right place. Love it.

OMG I have never see so many customer waiting in the Chinese take out before, they must be doing something right. I was there tonight as one I use normally was close for two weeks so had to find somewhere else to eat, service was ok, had to wait for 30min for my order. this had to be the best Chinese I have tasted, food are nice and pipping hot. The Satay Chicken is very different to what I had before, the one I had normally tend to be quite dry, but because this one is cover in some sort of batter, which make the chicken quite juicy. it kind of won me over, now it is my favour dish along with the Cantonese sweet and sour chicken. Will definitely use again.

We went on Wednesday, we were surprise it was quite busy, A great place to have exceptional Chinese food. the price is average but the value for money is great since you get a lot of food for the money. 20min wait was not too bad, all dishes are super fresh and full of flavor, we will be going back soon.

friendly staff, food cook perfectly, unlike other takeaway we have been to which seem to cover in lots of oil. this has to be the best in town, must try their salt and paper chicken, it is very different to what I used to, but this is far better.

Ok...so thanks for reading my review. I've tried quite a lot of Chinese take-aways in the Forest of Dean and I can honestly say this is the very best. The food is superbly cooked, authentic with very generous portions. As a family we have 2 vegetarians and 3 meat eaters, all were extremely happy with their choices (on several occasions). The food is cooked and served to a high standard, always piping hot and served using quality ingredients.Lastly very reasonably priced, as the portions are huge and rice etc. can be shared. Great front of house staff and a joy to visit.

Siempre Tome probado otros chinos en la zona, pero siempre demasiado lleno de GMS y grasiento. Cuando vimos la cola una noche pensamos darle una oportunidad.

This is the best ever Chinese take-away I have ever eaten from. I am from Manchester and even the Chinese quarter of restaurants can't compare to the Great Wall.

Era tarde; yo era recoger mi hija desde la estación de autobús, así que aparcamos fuera. Debería haber tomado nota del hecho de que no estaba lleno, pero yo no.

Fast and efficient takeaway service, food always piping hot, will change things on menu if asked. When you ring for takeaway they tell you a collection time and food is always ready. Food is above average and large portions, wont go anywhere else local for chinese takeaway

Our go-to Chinese takeaway in Cinderford. Consistently good food and the staff are really friendly.

Will never go back, when we got home and opened the bag there was no chips and we had chicken chow main instead of chicken foo young. The sweet and sour chicken sauce was bland, the chow main was very greasy and lacking in substance other than noddles and the spring roll was extremely greasy, almost £26 wasted

I ordered house special fried rice it had virtually no flavour at all and was lukewarm. I also ordered Chinese spareribs these were awful The meat was hard and stale and the ribs were just warmed up and poured very weak sauce over the top I rang and complained and I was told if you don’t like them don’t bloody buy them. As a Chinese chef. This person is a disgrace to Chinese food he certainly does not know how to cook will never ever go there again.
