The owner, according to a recent conversation I overheard while checking out after dinner, has sold China Bell and they are closing. A quick internet search turned up a Dispatch story that a marijuana dispensary has purchased the building and as soon as they can clear some zoning restrictions China Bell will close. I'm sorry to see this place go but I understand the reasoning behind the closing.

The customer service is out of this world. The best Chinese in Grove City, Ohio!!! Great customer service and its so nice and quiet. Love this place, we always come back for more.

We have been coming to China Bell for over 25 years. During shut down, we used the drive-through. The food has always been delicious and the service is great. We enjoy the buffet and glad to see it is back on Sundays. We hope the closing rumor is false.

Bro gave me a raw chicken, I told him I ain't afraid of a little pink!! That cold poultry had me coming back for more

Two thumbs up for China Bell's Crab Rangoon. Good flavor, and there were pieces of imitation crab throughout that was recognizable. While the Sesame Chicken gave off a bit too much soy sauce-ish undertones, I really enjoyed the Lemon Chicken and Sweet and Sour Chicken. Both dishes had big chunks of flavorful white-meat chicken; I was very impressed with the proteins served here. Service was also pretty good for our group of seven people.

Today I had lunch at China Bell in Grove City. My friend Mike had a great lunch and we were able to eat and share some delicious food! I ordered beef and broccoli and Mike had Pad Thai. I was just amazed at the portion size of the meal! I think I might have brought half of it home! There was a large portion of fried rice and the beef and broccoli filled up the rest of the plate! There was plenty of broth too I tried a taste of Mikes Pad Thai also.It was really tasty! I had never tried it before. I'm not sure of the spelling but I hope it's close to the correct spelling! The service of our food was pretty okay but the food did not served at the same time. I really liked how the restaurant was decorated! There were several rooms and each room had a different theme! So you could be seated in a room that's fitted to your mood! I'm sure that I will visit here again.

China Bell has definitely earned my respect as my all-time favorite Chinese restaurant. This place started out as a Holiday Inn restaurant back in 1964 and it's still going strong today. The food here is excellent with all the standard American Chinese dishes that are popular from coast to coast, the dets are at the very end... Their chefs do Cantonese, Hunan, Sichuan and Thai with ease., I haven't noticed any of that portion cutting or price increases that I've been seeing in many other restaurants. This long-time Columbus favorite appeals mainly to middle-class Gen Xs and Boomers. The decor is tasteful and a little elegant with softly playing background music which makes for a relaxing space to enjoy conversation with friends. Their service is typically very good, never had an issue. Plus, there's a great bottled wine special that's worth checking, too. If you haven't been, give them a try. 5 Stars. You Really Have To Check Out A Few Dishes Here: (A+) Pad Thai - This is one of the few Chinese restaurants that have mastered this Thai dish. Kudos to China Bell for the correct balance of sweet, spicy and sour! (A+) General Tso's - Lightly battered crispy outside, juicy tender white meat inside and tossed in a delicious savory sauce. One of the best in Columbus metro area. (A+) War Ba - A very unique dish! A huge portion of shrimp, scallops, chicken and vegetables in a savory white sauce. I get mine without the sizzling rice. (A) Spicy Chicken - An excellent spicy stir fry. It's got a good kick to it. (A) Almond Chicken - Not ABC, this is a great mild stir fry medley of Chinese vegetables, chicken and lots of almonds. (A) Spicy Crab Rangoon - These are delicious! If you are a fan of Crab Rangoon and you like some mild jalapeño heat. Good size portion too. (A) Pork And Green Beans - My friend Darlene raves about this one. (A) Sesame Beef - Again, a favorite of Darlene's. It's battered in corn starch so it comes out crispy outside and tender inside. Great sesame flavor too. (B+) Egg Rolls. Standard versions. They have pork and vegetarian rolls. (B+) Cashew Chicken - Nice mix of chicken and Chinese vegetables. Mild but savory. (B) Hot and Sour / Egg Drop Soup - Both are good versions. I like that China Bell puts pieces of mushrooms and water chestnuts in the Egg Drop. (B-) War Su Gai - It's about as good as most other places. They offer both brown and yellow gravy here.

Ahhhh, it's been a while since I've been here and it was good as ever. The pork egg roll and hot and sour soup was in a huge bowl! Our server, Ray, was so good. He was always around but not rushed. He named each dish as it was placed down which is rare anymore. I ordered the black pepper chicken which was the perfect amount of heat and the vegetables were cooked just right, crisp tender. This is a family owned local spot with an older crowd mostly. It has a very nice interior. It is showing a little age but I have a lot of respect for family owned restaurants that are still alive and kicking after the last few years. The prices and portions have not spiked and suffered, respectively, and for that I'm grateful and we had a lovely relaxed dinner with musak softly playing.
