Overview

Great Wall Family Restaurant stands as a cherished culinary landmark in Tisdale, Saskatchewan, offering authentic Chinese cuisine that has delighted locals for over 15 years. Located conveniently at 1018 100 St, this family-run restaurant has earned a reputation for consistently tasty dishes and warm, attentive service.

The menu highlights classic favorites like ginger beef and lemon chicken—dishes that have become local legends. The lemon chicken, in particular, is often described as exceptional, delivering a perfect balance of tangy zest and crispy texture. Equally popular are the chicken balls, with regulars ordering them weekly, a testament to the restaurant’s ability to craft simple yet satisfying comfort food.

The food is decent and staff is very friendly and helpful... However as in most small town Chinese restaurants the food is better enjoyed taken home, the interior could have used a good make over years ago. (The exterior though has been updated !!)

Our very favourite ginger beef comes from here!! We order usually monthly or so. Awesome food all around. Always get it hot and fresh. I'd eat there a lot more tho if they went back to having dine in options and especially if the buffet came back!!

I had an excellent chicken quesadillas at the place next door. Very tasty, the water was very cold, and I got a straw with my spaghetti and meatballs. They gave me a whole loaf of garlic bread. Mr ribs is very tasty
