See All ReviewsStopped in for a lunch meal, got the General Tso Chicken. Super fresh, chicken was crisp and smothered in sauce. Definitely recommend eating here if you love quality Chinese food. Super quick as well.
The Golden Wall in Gap, PA is my favorite local Chinese restaurant. I ordered my usual favorite of Sesame Chicken and my husband gets Shrimp Lo mein. We always order our meal as a Combo. The Combo comes with fried rice, egg roll and of course a fortune cookie. We get our meals as a take-out order. We can often count on a generous handful of sweet and sour, hot mustard and a Chinese restaurant staple soy sauce tossed in the bag. The manager always has a friendly hello as she promptly takes our order. You can count on generous portions of authentic Chinese food that is priced accordingly. It never to satisfy. So stop by and give it a try.
Full disclosure: I haven’t eaten here in maybe 20 years but this was my family’s go to spot growing up and no other General Tsos Chicken can ever compare to my memory of what this place serves. My mom would always place a walk in take out order and we would wait 20 minutes in the few chairs by the register while she balanced her checkbook or some other 90s/y2k analog task. The food was packaged in the tin bottomed to go containers and when we got home we would have to wait a few minutes for the chicken to cool down because somehow it was still burn your mouth hot after the 10 minute drive home. By some miracle, the chicken would still be crispy under the sauce that had a perfect sweet and spicy balance that I cannot find anywhere else in my adulthood. (These days it’s all sweet no spice) I remember being afraid of the peppers in the sauce. The pieces were so big I would have to cut them in half. I’m not sure if my memory is painted by my inexperience. Golden Wall was my first exposure to any Asian food whatsoever as a baby bumpkin in Lancaster Co. I’m not sure if food quality in general has gone down in these classic American Chinese strip mall joints. What I know is that the General Tsos bar was set for me at Golden Wall and for that I will be eternally grateful :)
