I was so hyped to hear there's a Chinatown mall in ATL so came to check it out. The so called mall is very small and there was nothing much to buy or see. Some mall gift shops next to each other with a salon, one clothing store and a small food court. I would not call it a mall here. The place has potential to expand and open other Chinese shops and market but sadly it looks so rundown. It was so disappointing. read more

The workers inside were kinda snobby and seemed annoyed when I walked in. I'm from out of town and came here to get a matcha and a croissant. Just cause someone has a question doesn't mean you should call them stupid when you turn around to talk to your coworker. 3/10. The matcha is pretty good but the energy in there was way off read more

I wanted to experience a real Chinatown. So I decided to drive to Chamblee and am so happy that I did last weekend. I found an awesome bakery that you can see from one of my pictures. They had various Asian cuisine from various parts of China and Taiwan. I really enjoy ordering from two stands. I will be back for sure to try them all! I will write two other reviews to share with you within Chinatown. I definitely recimmend dining at the food court. The food is AMAZING. Make sure you bring cash as well. Some food stands inly took cash. read more

The food is delicious. All plates are huge. Definitely family style. It's not the nicest place, but the food is good and the selection is endless. Be sure to try it. The amount you get it's worth your money. The service is decent. read more

I not only fail to understand why this place has such low ratings, but, frankly, I'm a bit shocked at the lame criticisms and not-always-thinly-veiled racism. I've only visited for the superb food court, but I've done some window-shopping at the businesses that surround it, and it seems there is an interesting selection of related/relevant stores. Parking is always available. The property, although not new, is clean and safe. Again, there's nothing wrong here! read more

It's a food court so self service. Wide variety of Asian food stalls. Prices are inexpensive. Worth going if you want domestic good Asian food. read more

Home of the Chinatown Food Court. Not to be confused with the Chinatown Feud Court, where gladiatoral battles are fought to the death before a baying crowd of foam-mouthed ruffians in the audience. I can't tell you where that is, otherwise I'd have to feed you. This is one of my favourite places in all of Atlanta if not my absolute favourite. English spellings ftw. There are several amazing food stands in here, and two of them in particular stand out. Which are Chongqing - where you can get amazing Lamb Cumin over handmade noodles. And Tsingtao with their amazing lamb cumin Kabob sticks among other deliciousness items. This was actually constructed before any businesses came here, intended specifically to be a Chinatown, and it works really well and adds so much to the Chamblee area and all of Hotlanta. This is a true destination and surprisingly one which a lot of people haven't even discovered yet since it's not right on Buford Highway and it's a little bit off the beaten path. Of course Lilly has been here and Richard has been here though, as have many other ATL Yelp legends! Anyway I have a court appearance to make, so I'm out. A Chinatown Food Court appearance!!! read more

Come here for the food....IT'S LIFE! This is one of my go to spots in Chamblee, the food is always good. It's made to order and cafeteria style. I've had so much from the various food vendors, I can't even list it all. The two vendors to the left as you walk in are more commonly found Asian foods or more Americanized. LAN Zhou Noodle is just that-hand made noodles in broth. China Kitchen and Hong Qing Hot Pot are mixed variety...these are the two I frequent. You can also get whole or half duck from Hong Kong BBQ. Some stalls take cash only and others will take cards-but they charge an additional 3.5%. It's not crazy so don't freak out just bring cash or absorb the extra % charge. Try something new...don't just order the same thing you always do!! read more

It shouldn't be call Chinatown at all. It's nothing like NYC or SFO. Just a tiny shopping strip. If you blink you will drive pass it. Few shops, market, a food court and a restaurant. read more

Atlanta Chinatown is not a Chinatown in the traditional sense. It's not a Chinese neighborhood or district located in downtown or urban Atlanta. Really, "Chinatown" is just the name of a Chinese shopping complex hidden in between Peachtree Industrial Blvd. and Buford Highway. It's close to the Chamblee MARTA station. Twenty of us Yelpers descended upon Chinatown's food court last night to partake in the latest Buford Highway UYE (http://www.yelp.com/events/atlanta-buford-highway-uye-chinatown-food-court). Along with the food court, Atlanta Chinatown also has two restaurants (Oriental Pearl, a dim sum and Cantonese restaurant, and I believe a hot pot place), a variety of offices (realty, insurance), retail shops (cosmetics, Chinese herbs, teas, a bookstore, video store, jewelry store,etc.), a hair salon, a supermarket, and a bakery. So there's quite a lot of stuff here. Oh yeah, and it's got the "Chinese Cultural Center," which is located separately behind the mall. This is where kids, and I guess adults too, can learn the Chinese language and other cultural aspects such as dance. One of my friends' moms has been a dance instructor here for years. I come here mainly for the food of course. Oriental Pearl is a good Cantonese restaurant and the dim sum on Saturdays and Sundays is solid. I also like the food court, where there are currently seven restaurants in operation. Going clockwise: Top One Gourmet Yanmi Yanmi Japanese Fast Food Ocean Garden China Kitchen Chong Qing Hot Pot Dinho Bakery & Cafe Hong Kong BBQ It's all Chinese food except for Yanmi Yanmi, but I'm pretty sure I saw some Chinese (and Korean) dishes on their menu too. Some of these places have menus in both Chinese and English. I think Ocean Garden is the only restaurant without an English menu (boo). The good thing about all of these places, though, is they have picture menus showing off each entree. I think it's great and makes the decision process a lot easier. Another great thing about the food court is most of the food is inexpensive, tastes good, and is served fast. When you come to the food court, chances are, one of the places will be closed. That's because each one is closed on a certain day of the week. I'm not sure of the exact schedule. China Kitchen was closed last night (Tuesday). Most, if not all, of these places are cash only. So don't forget to bring cash. The two popular restaurants at the food court are Hong Kong BBQ and Chong Qing Hot Pot and deservedly so. They serve good food. I decided to try something different last night and went with Top One Gourmet. I'll review them separately tomorrow, but James H. pointed out to us that they only have a one-star rating. Yikes. It wasn't that bad! I think most of the Yelpers last night ordered from Chong Qing Hot Pot because it looked like the happening spot to order from. Poor Ocean Garden. Other miscellaneous notes about Atlanta Chinatown: There's free Wi-Fi, they have a small Chinese "garden" outside, and there's plenty of parking, though some of the spaces are tight. read more

Oh my goodness! I don't even know where to start. We went here to try a dry hot pot at one of the restaurants (Chong Qing )and it was excellent! I've been going there regularly to eat at this particular restaurant but the thing is, this is a food court! There are so many delicious places to eat in here! You can get different foods from different restaurants and enjoy them together! Not all of the restaurants are open every day so check on that before you go. There is a pretty courtyard outside and inside there is a dining area. It is very clean and maintained. So my two favorites Chong Qing - They are closed on Mondays. Good fast affordable Sichuan dishes! I love the fish and potato hotpot! They have so many dishes to choose from. The soup and rice are set up at sort of a self serve counter to the left of the register. The employees are very patient to help me choose dishes and explain some of them too me. Be adventurous! I've loved everything I've tried here! New Lan Zhou noodle - These guys are closed Thursdays. These guys have wonderful hand pulled noodle dishes and dumplings. This is to be expected but they have some wonderful small rice cakes covered in sesame seeds and filled with sweet red bean paste. I like the large ones that I've had various places but these smaller ones are divine. These plus the wonderful noodle soups make this a perfect stop for cold wet days like today! Watching him fold and pull the noodles is amazing. There are so many more restaurants here. Somebody here has that perfect amazing "holy cow I've found heaven" dish you never knew you needed so badly. The fun part is trying different things to try to locate it! read more

I use to come here for math tutoring as a kid and I hated it....So for years I avoided this place only because I was sick and tired of coming here. It use to be a pretty happening place but not sure what happened. Most of the shops that I remembered as a kid are either gone or are half of what they use to be. The food court is still here and that's still pretty good for the most part....the parking is still a challenge as much as ever. I hope the owners of the place give this place a face lift because it sure needs it.... Here are a few places that you might wanna check out if you are in the area Dinho Market (an Asian grocery store) Nihao Atlanta Bookstore (mandarin language books and also magazines) Oriental Pearl Seafood Restaurant China Kitchen (inside food court) Chong Qing Hot Pot (inside food court) Hong Kong BBQ (inside food court) New Lan Zhou Noodles (inside food court) Top One Gourmet (inside food court) Yanmi Yanmi (inside food court) Cocina Linda Vista (inside food court) read more

The first thing that must be explained is THIS IS NOT A CHINA TOWN!!! "Atlanta Chinatown" is the name of the strip mall. Now with that out of the way I need to let you in on one of Atlanta's two secrets. The first one is all Atlanta Dim Sum sucks. Stop trying to find good dim sum! The 2nd secret is inside this mall there is a food court. Inside that food court at the very end there is a lady standing at a counter. She has been making food for over 40 years and her dishes reflect that commitment. Prices are good for an entree for one but almost all dishes are family size and come with free rice and soup that is self service. Come with as large a group of friends you can muster and order a little something from every stall. Some dishes will be sure to join your list of best ever. My best ever moment was MaPo tofu from the above mention 49 year veteran of this food game. read more

There isn't an actual "Chinatown" in Atlanta. This building is it. There's a food court with variety of Chinese food along with retailers and a supermarket on the side of the building. It's convenient to shop for some traditional Chinese items like "Qi Pao" (chinese costume) and "Hong Pao" (red packets) if needed. If you're into small gifts or souvenirs, some stores sell them here as well. read more

Tasty food, exotic dishes, excellent choices at family friendly prices. Decor is below average, but we're there to enjoy food, not to soak up the ambience. I never seriously checked, but I doubt if any of the food concessions serves alcoholic beverages. Not a place for date night, but great for a Chinese food adventure. To top it off, as I was debating with my party if we should do the McDonald thing of cleaning up after us, a lady rolled a cart over to clean up our table. read more

When we found out that Atlanta had a Chinatown, we just had to visit this place soon after we arrived for our 5-day vacation! This place turned out to be completely opposite of what I had pictured "Chinatown" to be... This place isn't a street full of liveliness and stores/shops/restaurants like the usual Chinatown (in LA or SF). Instead, it's a tiny shopping plaza that looked ghetto as hell! It has a few stores/shops (the usual boba joint, bookstore, supermarket, and Asian VHS/DVD store), a dim sum restaurant, and a food court with delicious authentic food! Yes, despite the fact that this plaza is below par in terms of its appearance, I give 5 stars to its food court! I completely understand that this place is extremely small since the Asian population is Atlanta is small, but to be able to eat authentic Chinese food in Atlanta is just beyond my imagination! The food they serve is even better than some of the LA restaurants that I've had, and that's just crazy! Another thing that surprised me was the bathroom in the food court...even though the actual food court was on the dirty side, the bathroom was a lot better! (I've seen/been in SO many disgusting bathrooms whenever I go to an Asian establishment in both socal/norcal) My only regret is we didn't stay in Atlanta long enough for us to check out all the stores and the dim sum restaurant! read more

A rename is appropriate for this place. It should be called ChinaHalfBlock and not ChinaTown. As the latter evokes a large scale congregation of Chinese businesses, restaurants and community. This place is , at most half a block only. Its size and stature as the hub for local Chinese has diminished. You'll find a food court, with several vendors. Nothing too spectacular and you can find the same fare in Chinese supermarkets such as GW. The one redeeming anchor is the dim sum restaurant attached to it. Seems like the place gets packed on the weekends. I have not had dim sum here , but I intend to, since a huge crowd, almost always mean a good meal. read more

Grew up in chamblee and never knew there was a food court! I came with a friend and we were starving! I was craving dumplings and were hoping to find shao long bao that are comparable to Chef Liu's. i can't remember what the name of the restaurant was but it was 2 stalls down from Chong Qing. The menus and descriptions of the entrees are to be in conjunction with the photo albums that each restaurant has. Most of the restaurant menus do not describe the entrees accurately. Ex. Shao long baos were called 'juicy pork buns' and braised pork belly and cabbage was called "steamed pork". The dumplings were tasty. Mild in flavor, but sadly they break open so you dont get the experience of a soup dumpling. An order is roughly $7 for 8 of them. I was very disappointed that every single one of them tore when trying to lift them out of the steamer baskets. So a 4 on flavor, but only a 1 on execution. The seafood hot pot was 9.50 amd can easily feed 2. It wasnt very descriptive so I had no idea what to expect. It was full of white fish, cuttlefish, and shrimp. There was also a lot of napa cabbage and buckwheat noodles. The broth is very mild, almost bland. 3 on flavor and a 5 for value. My favorite dish was the "steamed pork". It was braised slices of pork belly atop a bed of steamed cabbage. It was so tender and the fatty parts melts in your mouth. Reminds me of a viet dish called "thit kho". It's less sweet and a bit saltier but balanced well with the cabbage. 5 overall. Overall we were satisfied with the meal. All three dish came to about $25. We had more than half the food left and took it togo. Byob so you save on that. And every station has steamed rice, egg drop soup, and water and tea. read more

This is a 60,000 square foot mall housing businesses and offices- but this mall is renowned for the food court. There are cultural events here as well as the CCC on the weekends and during the Lunar New Year. This mall reminds me of many hidden indoor malls that you would find in larger cities, for example Flushing Chinatown Mall. Atlanta is so lucky to have cultural options for dining, entertainment, and shopping. You would think you were in New York when visiting here. Out of all the food courts in Atlanta, this is by far my favorite. Housing cuisines from: -Sichuan -Shanghainese -Taiwanese -Hong Kong -Japan and many more... read more

Oh joy, this place reminds me of San Francisco Chinatown where restaurant hygiene is optional and English will not be your primary language. This plaza serves as a food court that is on the verge of crumbling either from the age of the building or dirt. As I'm here with all sorts of nostalgia, none of what I saw before me bothered me the slightest bit. There is a wide selection of Japanese and Chinese food and pastries. The amount of complimentary tea, water, and utensils is admirable. The cups are teeny tiny. The environment and the view inside the food court towards the windows is surprisingly pleasant. The employees are friendly. However, you have to go get the food yourself. They won't come find you when it's ready Despite the nostalgia associated with this court, I would come back only with friends. Most of the customers eat by themselves, which was slightly depressing to observe. We were probably the only table that had more than one person. read more

I went here for Chinese New Year. Gong Xi Fa Cai! Good lion dance! Great singing. You know you are close to paradise when the menus are only written in chinese. Let your eyes and nose make decisions for you. I usually stroll around and look at what others are eating. Naturally the place was bustling with a flurry of activity from the throngs of peope who came to attend the celebration. During my sojourn in the food court. I found myself in front of China Kitchen ordering their dumplings. Fortunately there were only two types on the menu. Using my vast skills in the Chinese language who even knows what I really said. All of the stands had self serve rice and condiments. There was hot tea and cups for water there as well. I went to Chong Qing Hot Pot for some spicy hot tofu. I wanted the snow pea leaf but they were already out. I settled for their mixed vegetable dish instead. Later, I went to Yanmi Yanmi for some buffalo chicken wings which were highly recommended. We split the order between all of us and enjoyed it immensely. We enjoyed all of the food ordered. I like duck and there is a bar-b-que shop in the food court. However, I have resolved myself to endeavour to eat healthier. Therefore, I had to decline at this time, much to my dismay. There was another store that sold soup and hand pulled noodles. It appeared very authentic as well. The menu, like the others, was in Chinese. I obtained an English version to keep. I will have to return to this place soon. We listened to more singing. There was candy tossing from the singers to the crowd. The candy was chocolate wrapped in gold colored foil to represent wealth and prosperity in the new year. There is garden in the courtyard outside of the food court. There is a path through it with a small bridge and gold fish. There are many stores in Chinatown. I did not go to all of them. There is a grocery store and a full service restaurant on one end. Now the restaurant is named Oriental Pearl. I remember coming here when it was named Honto. This was the first "real" Chinese restaurant I had ever been to. My chinese wife brought me here to "educate" me on what Chinese food "should" taste like. That was a wonderful day indeed. I had a good time here as usual. 38/100 read more

Sadly this place was very mediocre and run down. This was not what the date and I expected when we searched for "China Town" through Yelp this past Saturday. There are maybe about a dozen stores altogether inside this place, probably not even so if you don't count the food court. There was also a mini supermarket here. The market has a pretty vast selection of packaged items, frozen items, to fresh veggies. Not too shabby for it being located in a center like this. There was a pretty little garden here that's serene. It's like a recreation of a scene in Memoirs of a Geisha where little Chiyo was on the bridge. It was a very lush area with pretty flowers to look at. Parking is sort of limited, but this place won't be slammed with people unless it's those eating at the adjacent restaurant--Oriental Pearl Restaurant. You will not be disappointed if you don't visit this place. Trust me. You won't. I'm kind of thinking if I event visited the correct China Town since previous reviews were so far different... read more

I thought Las Vegas had a sad "Chinatown." Atlanta's is even worse. Atlanta's "Chinatown" = an old strip mall with less than 10 stores. Sure, it has a bookstore or two with Chinese things you might need/want, such as CDs and cute hong bao envelopes, but overall, it was a disappointment. read more

Although i wish ATL had a much larger "Chinatown" and a true one that is walkable - this one sufficed, it was nice having the Asian grocery (although, not the best I've seen), the food court and a few shops. The garden was a cute touch and was nice to sit at. read more

Atlanta Chinatown is huge. Just kidding. It can't compare to NY's or San Fran's. Actually, you can't even call it Chinatown since it's just a shopping plaza. However, the plaza is cool. It has a bunch of Chinese businesses. Near it, there's the Chinese Culture Center where Chinese people can force their kids to learn Chinese and other stuff. The best part of Chinatown is their Food Court. Lots of authentic and cheap Chinese (and "Japanese") food can be found here. Currently, these are the places you can find at the Food Court: * Top One Gourmet - Chinese Food * Yanmi Yanmi - Japanese Food * Lan Zhou - Fresh, handmade noodle soups. * China Kitchen - Dumpling stuff * Chong Qing Hot Pot - Sichuan Food * Dinho Bakery - breads? * Hong Kong BBQ - Meats everywhere. My favorite is Lan Zhou and Hong Kong BBQ. All the stands should provide you with free tea, water, and maybe even rice. Once you're done with the food, just leave it at the table, someone will pick it up. That's so convenient. The Food Court closes at 9 PM. So make sure to come early if you want some decent, cheap Chinese food. Also, bring cash. read more

went 2 Atlanta 4 the 3rd time n finally was like I wonder if they have a Chinatown.. so I had high hopes 4 a big Chinatown.. I guess I'm so spoiled w/ the super big Chinatown we have in Seattle.. came here n it's only a strip mall read more

Everyone should make an excursion here with a pack of friends to have an adventure. There are shops to browse, and would work well either before or after a gastronomic excursion. Bring cash. There are six different storefronts that rotate which night each is closed so that everyone gets a day off without the food court closing. I really dig the hand thrown noodles, the slow roasted duck in the window, and the great Sichuan place. They're all cheap enough that you can explore through some truly unusual or uncomfortably hot dishes without worrying about going hungry. There are tons of tables that can be pulled together to accommodate any size group. I may have to come by for one of the movie nights. read more

I was surprised to realize I haven't reviewed Atlanta Chinatown yet. It's only a few minutes from my house, so I'm there on a regular basis. My favorite is Chong Qing Hot Pot (I absolutely adore Sichuan food), but I've sampled cuisine from nearly all the stalls. I eat at Chong Qing most often, but my second favorite is the place with hand-pulled noodles. Yum. I'm getting hungry just writing this review! In addition to the food court, there are a few really nice shops. The Chinese grocery is very useful, and I like the Ni Hao tea house. I haven't been to the dim sum place in such a long time, I can't say much about it one way or another. read more

More like...sad chinatown. It's really one large building with a bunch of shops interconnected together and a food court in the center. Every time I've been there, most of the people there are just for the food court or the grocery/market at the back side. There's a small open area with a display of Chinese pond/garden, but nothing else here is really worth trekking out for. read more

This place is not what you'd like it to be. So disappointing. There's a teeny weeny food court not even the size of the average food court at the mall; so disappointing. And the food was mediocre at best. I personally think you'd be better off going to the mall of Georgia, and eating Chinese in their Food Court, lol. read more

We have the smallest Chinatown but I guess it's better than none. I've been going here for years to their food court because they really do have some amazing Chinese food. It's been but about 3 years since I've been back... Now that I have, I've found 3 reasons to come back here more often. 1. Dinh Ho Bakery (They make the best pandan cakes with french buttercream and everything else here) We've been ordering cakes from them for years and they've never failed us yet. *knock on wood* 2. The old men playing Chinese chess in the garden. They are pretty serious about their game so you can look but don't be saying stuff around them... LOL 3. The NiHao Teahouse has to be my new most favorite spot for some live music coming from a caucasian guy in his early twenties (if even) singing Mandarin songs and playing his guitar. This was pretty much the highlight of my day. Oh and their fresh fruit black tea was pretty good too. I haven't tried their beef hot pot at Chong Qing yet so that's something to look forward to on my next visit! read more

I have only eaten at Chong Qing Hot Pot, which was good. Otherwise it amounts to one very tiny uneventful strip mall in the middle of nowheres. You drive a while after the highway and there is nothing else really around. Almost all the food is served in one gross cafeteria-style food court. And the patrons were quite sketchy-looking. read more

Not your typical huge Chinatown that cover many blocks like San Fran but it certainly does bring back childhood memories.

I was in a rush so I only got the dye but I'm hoping to go back soon! read more
