Yummy authentic fare  5 Star Rating - World class

We have been here many times, and have never been disappointed with the food or the service. I am trying to learn Mandarin, and the staff is always willing to help me with conversation practice. We have been to China once before, and have a good idea of what authentic Chinese food should taste like..
This place seems quite authentic to us. Excellent food!!

Great food if you know what to order  4 Star Rating - Very good

Great Lake's serves mainly Hong-Kong and Cantonese style food. If you order any of the standard American dishes you will be disappointed. I recommend any of the beef, noodles or hot-pot dishes as they are extremely good (the wide rice noodles with beef and chinese vegetables is addictive good). Dim-Sum there is OK - I prefer Lai-Lai down the road for better quality Dim-Sum.

The service can be a bit spotty at times- but if you have questions they are happy to answer them. Ask about the specials on the white board *They're in Chinese with no translation usually* as they can be quite tasty options.

Good food, bad service, very unhygiene  1 Star Rating - Unsatisfactory

In general, this is a pretty authentic Chinese restaurant in Ann Arbor. They serve Real authentic Chinese Dim Sum and not choy suey chinese food like many of the "chinese" restaurant in Ann Arbor do. Their food are okay, honestly, pretty good too. They have a large varieties of food to choose from both lunch (you can try dim sum during lunch time) and many authentic chinese dishes at dinenr also. They also serve "choy suey", therefore, if you go in and want to have "dim sum" or more authentic chinese food, you could ask for a "chinese' menu or 'dim sum" menu.
That said, their hygiene is really a big problem, it has been not once but twice that I have found hair in their "dim sum" and one time I saw a tiny crawling inset in my food which totally gross me out. I stopped going there after the incident.
They have extremely poor customer service. Since they're probably the only (or the only bigger one) that serve Dim Sum in Ann Arbor, they feel that costumer are pretty much stuck with them. When I complained about the hair and the insect in my dishes, they unwillingly make me another order. (didn't even apologize for it) Of course, i lost my appetite so getting me another dish is no use. After those times, I decided not to go there again.

Ok restaurant  3 Star Rating - Satisfactory

I know this restaurant is offering a lot of choices, like dim sum, various dishes. But generally speaking, I think most of this restaurant is just about ok. The dim sum tastes ok, the envoirment ok, and the service is ok. Nothing spetacular.
