Rude workers, overpriced food with poor service; never recommend

by atltransplant

The customer service here is absolutely horrific. The prices are definitely not worth it.

For one example, while numerous places around Atlanta, such as Mama Fu's, offers brown rice as substitute for white rice for FREE, this place charges an outrageous $2.50 for small cup of rice. When I asked why it was so expensive, the woman at the counter answered in an extremely rude and smug manner, "well, no one else minds paying $2.50 for a cup of brown rice." She was absolutely unapologetic for gouging her own customers. Well, thanks lady; I guess that's how you treat the customers -- simply charge as much as you can until someone complains. I guess she dared me to complain, so here I am.

As a person who makes brown rice at home daily, I can tell you that brown rice does NOT cost more to buy and is made the same way as white rice. I simply place the brown rice in my rice cooker with water. There is absolutely no justification for charge $2.50 for a cup of brown rice to substitute white rice.

As a new Atlanta transplant, I have tried a number of Chinese restaurants. This one was by far and easily the WORST! I was extremely disappointed. I tell everyone who comes to Atlanta to avoid this place like the plague.

  • Pros: None
  • Cons: Rude workers, overpriced food, poor service

Best chinese food in metro Atlanta

by kaizerdragon

Try the Flaming Combination Platter, which includes 6 types of appetizers, and the Wonton Soup or Sizzling Rice Soup is the best intown. Crispy shrimp hunan style and house special chicken is a must try. If you like spicy noodle soup, try the Chow Ma Mein. Most of the entrees are ready in 5-10 minutes. Great service and owners are always there to tend to special requests.

  • Pros: Inexpensive, top-quality chinese cuisine, attentive servers
  • Cons: sometimes lots of noisy kids and too dark at night, no reservations
