Good, solid food at affordable prices.

Dining at Great China is a great experience. The service is prompt, friendly and courteous. All of the dishes that I have sampled have been very good with a sauce that is less thick than most. The flavors still shine through and are not masked by heavy-handed sauces.

Of particular note here are the fried rice dishes. You really get a great deal for the price. While there is nothing amazing about the food here, it is very solid and consistent. I would like to try some of the chefs more creative dishes, it looks as if he could really make some great meals if given the freedom.

Of course, most diners don't want that and a restaurant such as this stays alive making the standard dishes that have become common at American-ized Chinese Restaurants. Still, the food here is worth a visit, give it a try.
