The Scene – DIY stir-fry's universal appeal spreads to west Midtown. The sleek loft space, in the bottom of stylish apartments on Howell Mill, attracts Atlantans of all stripes: parents with toddlers in tow, first-date types nervously sipping specialty cocktails, good-looking 20-somethings as far as the eye can see. The stir-fry line, a buffet of raw ingredients from rice and snow peas to coconut curry sauce and fresh shrimp, moves surprisingly quickly, even with a large crowd. – – The Food – Patrons line up, pile ingredients in a bowl, then hand it off. A cook…

ro*ches replace lo mein?
by WishYouWereHere at Citysearch
My experiences at this restaurant get worse with every visit. Last time I was there I saw 3 co*kroa*hes and they weren't serving lo mein anymore. WTF???
I had to wait in the buffet line for like 20 minutes.
- Pros: Can be delicious sometimes.
- Cons: not consistent, too busy for enjoyment

If you don't like poor services, loud music, burned food at Chow Baby, try HOT BOWL in Roswell. You'll be happy. Similar concept with all fresh ingredients. Excellent services, friendly & helpful staffs, cheaper $6.95 for lunch, $8.95 dinner, kid is $4.95 with soup & dessert included.
- Pros: location
- Cons: poor

Great price - great taste!

Took my son and his girlfriend at lunchtime to celebrate his birthday here as we had heard a lot about it, and were pleasantly surprised by the whole process of selecting items and havng them stir-fried. It was not a long wait from the time we gave our bowls to the cook and the time we sat down at our table. And we had a fabulous server named Jackie, very knowledgeble, especially about saki! Only complaint, my son had a jalapeno pepper in his meal that he didn't put in there, and both my son and his girflriend said their beef was a little tough. We arrived at 11:30 and there was a short line for food, but about an hour later, the line was ridiculously long. I would suggest going at lunch rather than dinner, as our server Jackie stated dinner was always crowded. Other than that, it was great and inexpensive. Fully recommend it.
- Pros: Item Selection
- Cons: Can be a long wait
