Xo egg tofu
Amanda C.

Came by for Saturday dinner and it was pretty full but luckily we snagged a seat. We felt a little bit rushed to order as they were hovering over us and asked multiple times what we wanted to order, perhaps their goal is efficiency. Was excited to try the peking duck with buns but were really disappointed in them. They were quite dry - both the duck AND the buns which should be fluffy and moist. Won't be getting that again. They seem to excel in the claypots - the eggplant and xo egg tofu dishes were AMAZING. I plan to come back to try more of them. The walnut shrimp was pretty good but a little too saucy for my liking. I did like how it came with broccoli so we didn't have to order a veg. Overall seems like they have some standout dishes and others not so great.

Pork Chop with Peking Sauce
Sarah T.

After a group activity, we longed for some dinner. Someone suggested Bo Bo garden as it can accommodate our large group. This was my first time here and I was pleasantly surprised. We ordered the dinner for 6 people and all but one plate was cleared. It's hard to pick a favorite as they were all pretty good. The group collectively did not care for the scallion chicken. Everything came out hot and well seasoned. They even give you some fruits at the end. Service was fast but we did have to ask for water. Dinner for 6 comes with: Beef and cilantro egg drop soup Pork chop with Peking sauce Flounder Shrimp with walnut XO egg tofu Black pepper steak Scallion chicken Seasonal vegetables

I absolutely looove Bo Bo Garden! There was about a 2 month streak where my husband and I would go every weekend. Pretty sure they know us by now lol. The service is great and very fast! I typically order the Singapore Noodles, House Lo mein, or some other type of house rice noodle dish. I've also ordered Chinese broccoli and it was fantastic! In a crowded sea of Asian restaurants along Buford Highway, Bo Bo stands out. It also helps that my favorite rolled ice cream place ( ICE NY) is right next door :)

Stir fry tofu and pork with chives
Marni M.

Looking for another excuse to celebrate Lunar New Year, my friends and I made dinner reservations here on a Sunday. There still looked to be plenty of other tables available but they also quickly filled up so I think it's always better safe than sorry. Parking was a breeze since they have their private lot with a fair amount of spots. Decor is consistent with other traditional Chinese restaurants with an even bigger room that they had blocked off, great if looking for a large venue in the area. Being a group of 15, we got the classic 10 course wedding dinner meal consisting of a variety of dishes including Stir fry tofu and pork with chives, Salt n pepper squid, Scallions Chicken, Fried Salted Fish Fried Rice, Egg tofu in sauce, Beef stir fry, Lobster Ginger & Scallion, Butter Cheese, Mexican Style, Hong Kong style, Hot Red Pepper, Pork Chop with Peking Sauce, Peking Duck, and Fried rice to name a few. Some of my favorites were of course the lobster, the egg tofu, beef stir fry, and pork chop. Everything came out in a flash and they were very on top of cleaning off our table and refilling our tea kettles. Overall, I had a wonderful experience. Our bellies were full, our cheeks sore from laughing, and we were able to get in and out especially for being such a large group. Bathrooms were pretty clean and the staff were very nice. Would love to come again and recommend others to check them out!

I don't think I've ever been when it hasn't been seemingly busy, though I think they tend to seat people in one area before they open up the rest of the restaurant. Upon entering, it appears smaller than the outside makes it look. However, near the entrance, there are other rooms for seating, some private and some for when the main seating area becomes full. The interior has some decorations many who frequent Chinese restaurants will be familiar with, and there are some fish tanks that showcase the fresh fish they use. The food is pretty good. They have many options, and it comes out pretty quick. I've come here a few times over the years I've lived in Georgia, and the black pepper steak has always been pretty consistent. Their fried options are usually done crispy too, but this time, the tofu (which is my first time ordering it) wasn't fried long enough, so the texture was off. It tasted fine, so we did finish it. Everything else was good.

Came here with a large group for lunar new year and they were so accommodating!! A couple people arrived early and ordered, the waiter told the kitchen to make the food 10 min before the rest of the group arrived so it would still be fresh! Food was authentic Chinese and so good!! 5/5 food - favorite was the egg tofu and spicy fish 5/5 service 5/5 vibes - plenty of parking and classic Chinese restaurant vibes!

Clay pot rice
Kathy Y.

This is a very tasty Cantonese place in Doraville! It is a small restaurant, and everything about it does look unassuming. But the food is really good, reminding me of a taste similar to what you can get in Southern China. The prices are also very fair, with decent portion sizes. This is also one of the only places I know in the area that has clay pot rice, so if you ever want to try clay pot rice, this is the place to go! I would definitely come again some time to try more of their dishes.

Went for lunch, service was efficient. You're seated quickly and food comes out rather quick. Here's what I liked. Tons of parking, efficiency and food. I love the array of teas they offer and how it's served. The chrysanthemum tea was great. After your meal, your given a complimentary palette cleanser. That day it was oranges. What I wasn't ready for, was the waitstaff. I felt a little watched, not rushed but their presence was constantly monitoring. Also, be prepared, for their accents. Just be patient, they are nice.

Salt & Pepper Pork Chops, Beef Chow Fun and Steamed Rice
Martin R.

This is one of my go to Chinese restaurants. They have great food. They have great selection and they will also make things that are not on the menu. My only negative comment is that they don't have dark meat chicken, which is strange being a Chinese restaurant. The service is what you expect at a typical Chinese restaurant on Buford Highway. The clientele is predominantly Asian, but this place is frequented by many non-Asians. Unlike other Chinese restaurants in the area, this Chinese restaurant charges for extra rice. The atmosphere of the place can either be very loud or normal noise level, depending on how many kids are there.

Tried a bunch of dishes for lunch. The beef brown flat noodles and fried rice were missing flavor. The snow pea tips were lacking in aromantics. The salt and pepper squid was chewy too. The place was neat and had quick service. It was quick to made and came hot, but water and tea refill were slow.

E X P E R I E N C E so traditional that they have live fish swimming around in tanks. you can choose which fish you want to be cooked! when we walked in, we were immediately greeted. there were a few other tables occupied. we came as a group of two on a thursday around noon. we were immediately brought drinks and given menus. S E R V I C E fantastic. (especially for a chinese restaurant. many times they don't care lol) they're very attentive and polite. they checked up on us several times and if we were looking around for them, they would immediately come help. F O O D water spinach: cooked v well. garlic. light. flavorful. cumin lamb: different than what i expected. i expected a fried dish but this was very good too. flavor was balanced. nice to have a different flavor salt and pepper spare ribs: a bit dry but my friend said this is usually done v well. flavor was good though. lightly fried congee: incredible. my friend wanted to order this which i was resistant bc im asian, i cook and don't order anything i can make at home. but this congee was fire! sooo tasty B A T H R O O M v well kept. clean. no smell. 3 spacious stalls for women. P R I C E 80 smtg+ 20% tip

Clams in black bean sauce

Still five stars in my book. Bo Bo Garden has been a staple in my life for well over 10 years. I no longer live in ATL, but every time I'm there, Bo Bo Garden sees me. The Hong Kong Lobster STILL reigns supreme, but also give the Salt and Pepper Shrimp (shell on) a try-- they are divine!

Eight years after my initial review, Mamak remains our family's favorite spot…read more I believe the restaurant has changed hands at least once, but the food quality, ambiance, and portion sizes have remained consistent. Prices have increased since my last visit (of course), but they're still quite reasonable. The service is exceptional! We always enjoy chatting with Jojo and Chloe when we're there. These two ladies are incredibly friendly and helpful. My parents visit so frequently that Jojo already knows their orders without them having to say a word lol. You never have to wait long; our orders come out one dish after another very quickly. Our go to orders: * Chow Quay Teow * Fish Fillet * Kari Fish Fillet * Salt & Pepper Squid * Hainanese Chicken + Chicken Rice!! * Salt & Pepper Tofu * Stir Fried Okra in Garlic TBH you can't go wrong with anything on the menu.

My group had 5 people, so we had to wait a bit to get seated, but the staff was able to navigate that really well. The food was delicious! I got the Beef Chow Fun Ho, and for an appetizer, I got the roti and the curry. I would highly recommend both! The roti was flaky and soft- it paired so well with the curry. The beef chow fun was good as well, but it tastes better with this chili sauce (it could be it was seasoned just fine and my taste buds are dead from all the spice I eat). That sauce elevated the flavors even more. The prices were fairly priced for what you get, and I will say, though, if you come with a group of 5 or more, they will charge you a 20% tip automatically. I did not mind at all because the waitress we had was very attentive and checked up on us several times during our meal.

It is one of the kind Duck store and restaurant. Many cook item are prepared in duck related items…read more Such as duck liver, duck wing, duck kidney, duck meat, duck beak, duck lung and more. They have this item marinated in their family secret spice. We got some of the duck and chicken gizzard, tofu, fish ball. Those are so good in their marinated item. Other than these items, they have the special make noodle dish. You can eat there or carry home. They also have some fried item. But it need time to prepare. If you want it carry out, you need to call ahead so no wait on the pick up.

You can find Spicy Ga Ga Duck at 5090 Buford Hwy, Ste 109, Doraville, GA 30340 in the Intown Plaza…read moreshopping center. This plaza is also home to the very good Temp Doeloe (check that review) and China Hot Pot (aka Little Sheep Mongolian Hot Pot). The parking for this plaza is pretty tight but depending on your arrival time you should be able to find a space - might be a good idea to carpool just in case. I attended a meeting here of my regular Buford Highway Restaurant Clawr group - actually we had tried to come here once before but the guy was about to close, so this time we came earlier, only to find that you had to call ahead to get the whole duck (which is what we were the most interested in). This sparse, brightly painted place is more of a butcher than a restaurant - where fans can buy various animal bits like Duck head, neck, feet, wing, tounge or gizzard (similar for chicken), also cuts of beef tripe, stomach and tendon or pork ear, feet and leg. They also have several seafood items like crawfish, river snails and mussels. It's my understanding that this is a particular style of traditional Chinese cooking where the focus is on all the bits that are often discarded in the US. It's for a discerning palate and stuff you might find from street-food vendors in large Chinese cities. For Atlanta this is a way to get flavors you wouldn't otherwise find, perhaps to deal with a longing for home. Thus the clientele is made up mostly of Chinese nationalists. We opted for two very similar dishes (we weren't aware how similar until we got them) - one was a soup with clear noodles and the other basically the same thing without the broth. I thought the broth fairly decent and the bits fairly fresh if very rich. I don't mind tripe, beef stomach, blood sausage and the like but I try to only get it in occasional bites - getting a huge bowl was a bit overwhelming. I think if you're looking for something interesting this might be the place to start - I'm not too sure if I'd have this as a destination. The guy behind the counter was not very engaged, seeming to spend all his time on his phone, basically oblivious to us - I don't think we fit into his typical demographic.

Rice (brown or white) and ponko breaded chicken with their OG sauce is a better healthier choice than hamburger and fries, but still dang tasty, quick, and well priced. Their cucumber pickles are amazing and I wish I had the recipe. I actually also buy the OG sauce by the bottle cause it's amazing on many things. My only complaint is they recently changed the plates to have only ONE side instead of two, but you get a fountain drink instead. I don't drink soda, and I'm well aware it's cheaper for them to give soda than another side dish, and yet the price for the platters are still the same. I'm just tired of everything getting both more expensive and worse quality everywhere, so it's a bummer. :( But still a good deal considering even McDonalds can be pricy these days.
