Super Great Wall Buffet

I had such a tasty experience at the Super Great Wall! They have a huuuuuge selection of Asian and non-​Asian dishes. The orange chicken, egg drop soup, general Tsao’s chicken and green beans were delicious.
They charge the lunch price of $ 10 until 4:30 which is a fantastic deal. I wasn’t hugely impressed by their dessert selection, the cake was dry and not very tasty but the frosting was good.
Definitely check out the Super Great Wall if you have a huge appetite!

Very bad experience here. Most food was cold. Selection was not great, especially considering the 15.99 per person price tag. Staff was discourteous and was visibly irritated when made aware that many bins were empty. To date, this is the worst Chinese buffet I have ever been to. We will not be returning.

The freshest with a huge variety of food during busy dinner time chinese buffett that I have found in Maine. Our family used to go here for quite sometime for their lunch buffett then stop going and now rediscovering as a great dinner buffett. For $ 15.95 (adult) dinner prices (see my pix for prices Feb/​16) is not expensive considering the varieties and amount of hot food that they offer:
King crab legs check (best tasting I have found)
Clams check
Squid check
Cocktail shrimp check
Crawfish check
Salt and pepper fried shrimp check
Sushi check
Even peking duck! Yes really!
All varieties of stir fried vegetables and appetizers.
This is the most complete chinese style buffett you can find in Maine!
There are some American dishes as well that kids might like if they are not adventurous eaters.
If you want to try different asian style dishes, this is your food heaven in Maine.

This place reminds me of an old, but well oiled machine. This is because it has old Chinese décor, is a little dirty, but they have it together.
One can get most standard Chinese buffet options, but also special seafood items like crab legs. They also have sushi available in limited quality.
The stir fry station is also really good.
Overall, it’s an interesting dining experience and certainly worth going to if you like buffets.

Every time my parents come to Portland for dinner, my Dad always votes for Super Great Wall Buffet. Why? All you can eat buffet with tons of options! Seriously, the selection is pretty sweet. The ‘rents always go for the seafood options. oysters, clams, crab legs. My favorites are the lo mein, fried rice, general Tso’s chicken, and orange chicken. There is also all you can eat sushi (4 – 5 different types). It’s average sushi, I usually go for a couple of pieces. They also advertise a «made to order» hibachi grill plate that the employee working the sushi counter will cook for you. I have never done this and I have never seen anyone actually getting one. Every time I walk by the sushi/​hibachi area the employee is usually talking to himself in Chinese or looks too busy to be bothered. Maybe this is why the hibachi grill doesn’t get much use, if any.
For dessert they have a large selection of the little cakes and cookies that you see at every Chinese place (not a fan of these). They also have a soft serve ice cream machine with choc, vanilla, and swirl. Granted, this isn’t the fanciest Chinese restaurant in the area and it’s probably not the highest quality food around. However, the inside is always clean and the waiters are prompt with clearing the dirty plates from your table.
Unfortunately, their alcoholic drink selection is limited. They have a red and white wine and a few beers, but no liquor. No Mai Tai’s here :(

good variety of food from all over the world: roast duck, tacos, sushi, Mongolian grill, different dumplings, and desserts. For the price, you’ll leave satisfied.

My mom, who was very particular about seasonings and variety took me to this place about 4 years ago and it has become one of my «go-​to» places for asian food by the mall.
Location — again, strip mall, BUT, it is toward the end of it and parking isn’t too crazy, even on a Friday night. There are very dark spots in the lot, so drive SLOWLY, no need to rush, there is plenty of food for everyone. It is not far off the highway, so I love that too.
I think because I am a regular, I tend to get a lot of smiles and a warm greeting when I walk in. They are probably thinking, «she back, we better tell the cooks, the mei fun pan is going to need a refill pronto» :)
The place is always usually half full, at lunch or dinner. I have been to both seating many many times. The big difference between the two is certainly the price, but also, rice and noodle dishes around lunch tend to be vegetable, like vegetable fried rice as opposed to ham fried rice at night. AND if you are into shellfish, which I can’t because of allergies, they have at least two kinds to choose from at night. Last night 11/​20, they had king crab legs, crawfish and shrimp. The customers definitely had the staff running to keep up with the demand — which they were from my view.
I like the food. I don’t love that food, but I really do like it. I find the flavors to be consistent and the food is warm not HOT, but warm. The appetizer table is a different story. The items there tend to be hot, especially the eggrolls and springrolls. Be careful when picking up the tongs because if was sitting on a gap between the tray and steam tray below it, the tongs can be hot… like — «throw them back down» hot.
I don’t vary too far from my favorites here. If I don’t mention a dish here, it’s because I haven’t tried it. The mei fun and lo mein are always cooked just right for me. Nice balance of vegetables, but more noodles than veggies, which I like. The noodles are never over or under cooked. The fried rice has a nice flavor — it’s seasoned it’s not just salty. It has a enough crumble but is a little sticky, which is how my family made it. I love it! I usually get at least two plates of noodles and rice.
I like the chicken fingers, but when you pick them up give a little squeeze with the tongs to be sure it is not over cooked. Sometimes they are way over cooked and it is almost impossible to bite through. Usually I can find at least 4 i can take. I like the eggrolls — not too big and there is a nice balance of pork and cabbage. I don’t think I have ever left a piece or scrap of eggroll on my plate. I like the wonton soup consistent and what you would expect from it. I like how you can add more meat wontons into it as well. The pork dim sum — YUM! I love it. Tender and nice ginger flavor, I usually get at least one.
The beef and broccoli is my family’s go-​to main dish. The broccoli is cooked al dente/​steamed and tossed with tender sliced beef with a nice brown sauce. It is the base on every one of my plates.
There are a ton of other options for those wanting more american food, like mashed potatoes, apple pie, onion rings, meatloaf, tacos? I think those are somethings I have seen. Ok, I may have grabbed an onion ring or two on occasion ;)
The servers are definitely there for work… not providing «customer service» but rather to be sure your drinks aren’t empty and your table is cleared. I have NEVER had to look for someone for anything. They have been very attentive. And know that I require a STACK of extra napkins :)
The music cracks me up too… it’s like I am at church. Last night’s selection, Eternal Father and Morning has Broken.
I think it is worth the money you pay for. The food is not award winning, the place isn’t brand new, but something about it seems «real» and not staged.

Very average but, good for a quick bite. This is only my first choice because it is so close to where I live and there are no other Chinese buffets close by. The prices are definitely too high but, I suppose it could be worse. I’ve definitely had worse Chinese food.

This place is disgusting. Food that was supposed to be hot was cold, old or not well made. Food that was supposed to be cold was warm and sushi items were poorly made and not kept in an area where they would stay the proper temperature.
The staff basically ignored us by not retrieving empty plates, not refilling drinks and not checking in. It wasn’t even busy the night we went. The waitress the had the gall to demand where her tip was, which we told her would be left on the table when we were done eating. Either way, will not be going back anytime soon. Was not worth the $ 61 for 3 adults and 1 child that went there

For starters… I love going to an All you can eat buffet; NO not because I am some fat slob who loads up his plate to the brim and then leaves half of it. I like a buffet because I am a very picky eater and a buffet usually allows me to find something I like.
Hence while working up here in Maine I saw the reviews for this place and an average 3 stars. As I use reviews as a guide I decided to go check it out anyway… Well, obviously some people have no clue… while I rarely give out 5 stars I am doing it for this place.
I could have eaten just the Sushi it was so FRESH… the eel was fantastic and the Hibachi Grill! The place had soo much fresh seafood, well it is in Maine… I didn’t even get to try everything…
To top it all of this place serves beer… nice Asian selection which is rare for an All you can eat place… I guess government not as corrupt in Maine as the rest of the country… liquor licences must be cheaper here.
Overall a great and reasonable priced dining experience and I look forward to eating here again on my next trip to the area. This place moves into my number 2 spot on my review list for best All You Can eat Buffets. Locals I envy you for this place…

Occasionally a Chinese buffet tries to be something it’s not. Sometimes you go to a Chinese buffet and you end up getting American food, just not very well done, or a lot of extraneous stuff like potato salad or Jell-​O. This Chinese buffet is great because it has the perfect balance between Chinese food, other Asian food, and a little extras that everybody likes like softserve ice cream and french fries. We came with a large group and no advanced notice that the staff are friendly and able to accommodate us. The Chinese food was great there is a lot of variety, and everything was very fresh. The sushi bar was decent. And the salad bar has lots of fresh options for fruit and other veggies. All in all this place is a great experience.

This place rocks. They have an appetizer bar that includes peel and eat shrimp and other seafood items. They also have a hibachi grill where you can chose your own ingredients such as chicken, pork, beef, scallops, and shrimp, plus a wide array of vegetables. You can also find Crab legs, fish, craw dads, clams, oysters (both cooked and raw). There are also a variety of Chinese dishes you can have, as well as some American food items such as mashed potatoes and mac and cheese. They also will grill a steak for you, or you can cut some steak or ham from the buffet. I like coming here for the hibachi grill best, as well as a spinach dish, and ending the meal with some soft serve cream with an almond cookie. I travel an hour and a half to get here, and it’s worth it!

My family and I have been going to the Super Great Wall for many years now. We are definitely regulars here but this is just like every other Chinese buffet. The food isn’t spectacular, but there is quite a variety. They have a sushi section and a hibachi section. Both are great. Food like pizza, tacos, and mac and cheese aren’t that good. They lack taste and one bite is all it takes for you to stop eating.
Their seafood on the other hand is good. Crab legs, mussels, oysters and clams are good. They have a section of fried food as well: crab rangoons, french fries, fried scallop, chicken nuggets, and etc. Their fried foods aren’t that great especially the french fries and chicken nuggets they didn’t taste at all. Their fried scallop and crab rangoons are good though.
Dessert table is okay but I always go for their ice cream since it’s way better and they have several selection for toppings.
Staff here don’t really like to communicate but they are friendly.

Really enjoyed lunch here. Visiting family from NM and just dropped in on it. Very pleasantly surprised by the huge selection and the Mongolian grill. Highly recommended.

Staying at the Holiday Inn on business. Looking for Sushi, Chinese food, of course I have to look to
Looked at the Super Great Wall Buffet reviews good and bad and figured I would find something in between. It exceeded my expectations, from the fried wantons to the chicken on a stick. The Sushi chef was excellent!!! (hint: an extra tip proved worth while) Unfortunately for me, I ate so much I couldn’t try the Hibachi.:-(
My rating of 5 stars, as good as it gets is, I’ve eaten a numerous Chinese buffets and non had the quality of the Sushi and selection of food. I will be back at the SUPER GREAT Wall Buffet when in the South Portland area for business or pleasure.

If you are out and about looking for some good Chinese buffet food, you might want to steer clear of this place. Here are the reasons why:
1. The food was lukewarm temperature and some was even chewy from sitting out for a period of time. Now I know they cannot keep buffet food piping hot all day but the effort at least has to be there.
2. There was nothing special about the food here. It was like your hohum every day type of Chinese buffet and nothing was there to make it special.
3. The service was less than spectacular seeming like they were more interested in rotating the tables rather than delivering good service and refilling our waters.
4. Over half of the bins were empty on he buffet line in the middle of lunch.
The only thing I would have to say that was good was the 8 dollar or so lunch time price but other than that, I will pass the next time that we are looking for some good buffet food for the family.
Oh and we all suffered from upset stomachs later in the day … Not sure if that is because of Super Great Wall Buffet but it fits with our experience.

Reliably decent if you are selective with what you put on your dish.
I love dining in, but their take out boxes are also a stellar deal if you work in the area and want a quick, cheap lunch.
I am extremely picky about where I eat and this is the only local buffet place I dare to eat at… and it’s definitely the only Chinese buffet on the planet where I dare to eat seafood.
I’ve been eating at this restaurant for over a decade and have never had a problem with food poisoning (I even remember when they were located in the building directly across the street way back in the day). Of course, if something tastes weird, I just spit it into my napkin/don’t eat it.
I always watch the staff coming out of the kitchen and grab whatever hot, fresh items they’re bringing out. I also pull my food from the bottom of each individual food tray because that’s where the freshest food is going to be.
My hands-​down favorite items are the crab legs, chicken with peanut sauce drizzled on top, sweet sesame buns, and dim sum (located in the silver steam canisters near the soups — a lot of people miss them).
Lately, I’ve been taking my 2 year old son with me to eat dinner there and I really love that they try to group families into one area. It makes me feel so much more relaxed knowing my son can be loud and it’s not a big deal because we’re surrounded by a lot of other children who are being loud too. The staff really dote over the children too.

Big selection of Chinese food. Word of wisdom, do not eat their seafood. It did not taste fresh. Also bring a towel. Management is too cheap to turn on the AC so expect a sweat buckets.

Terrible is the only word that comes to mind. Eggs rolls had a taste similar to what I would imagine old garbage to taste like, half the trays were empty on a Saturday night, most items tasted old or cold, 15 dollars per person not including a soft drink… I could go on for a while. My bf ate white rice and macaroni and cheese only and I literally had to spit out food into my napkin because it was that bad.

If you want unlimited amounts of tasty Asian and American food, this place is for you. This past weekend my dear cousin treated us to dinner at Great Wall Buffet at the request of one of the kids in the group. It’s been many years since I’ve been and to be honest, I didn’t expect to like it as much as I used to; I was pleasantly surprised.
Six or seven buffet sections containing Chinese (General Tso’s chicken, salt and pepper shrimp, egg rolls) and American food (mac and cheese, mashed potatoes, carve your own steak or ham, salmon, pasta), a Japanese section with sushi selections and a sushi chef, a fried food bar, as well as a dessert section (cakes, cookies, soft serve ice creams, fresh fruits) can be found in the middle of the restaurant. There was a huge variety of food!
I loved the black bean and garlic sauce oysters, clams and mussels both in an Asian flavored sauces, the mixed vegetables that had large pieces of eggplant, the cooked sushi rolls (I was only daring enough to try one piece of raw; it is a buffet after all), boneless spareribs, crab rangoon, and vanilla soft serve ice cream with crushed oreo sprinkled on top. Others in the group loved the lamb and Alaskan crab legs.
The veggie lo mein was lacking in flavor as was the fried rice, but white rice was also available which was a nice accompaniment to the more flavorful dishes. Squid dish had nice flavor but the squid itself was rubbery in texture, chewier than I expected. The carrot cake I tried was okay, but the frosting was not cream cheese and that was little disappointing. I barely had any of the raw items, such as the clams and oysters, but my cousins did and they enjoyed them. I was also not brave enough try much of the raw sushi but family members did and they liked it. The one piece I had tasted ok and I survived it without incident.
Glad to see the Great Wall is still doing well after all these years. I had a nice time with family here. It is unlikely that it will ever be my first choice for a meal, but if the people I am with want to go I would gladly join.
