Authentic Chinese food options in Roswell are scarce - and we were having major cravings at dinner time in Roswell. It was strange walking into the old Foundation Social Eatery only to be greeted by the aromas of Chinese wok cooking, but I was still anxious to see what they had going on. Our servers were very attentive and friendly - we ordered the Dan Dan noodles, the spicy stir-fried cabbage and the spicy & numbing fish hot pot. And a nice cold glass of draft Sapporo for $5. We enjoyed everything we ate - will definitely need to be back to try more items off the menu next time I'm in Roswell! read more

Food was delicious, service was great and ambiance was soothing and peaceful. Chicken fried rice was fresh, favorful, and just the right temp. My husband wants to be sure I add "just enough chicken without being too much." My eggplant was perfect- crispy, tender and did not get soggy. The fried wontons did not have much flavor in the cream cheese but they were delicious. Egg rolls were perfect. Our servers brought the food quickly and were very attentive without being intrusive. We enjoyed our lunch. read more

Good Chinese food and variety. It's not fast food Chinese takeout but a little nicer, plated nicer and more expensive. I do love the dry fried eggplant. Other items are good. For the price not my favorite Chinese in Atlanta but not bad. It's a very big inside and plenty of seats. read more

I met an old friend for lunch at Chef Wu in Roswell and we were very impressed with the restaurant. This is located in a nice strip mall in Roswell off of Holcomb Bridge Rd. The ambiance is very modern and upscale, and much different from what I have seen in traditional Chinese restaurant, but it was very nice and I liked the difference in the ambiance. The service was decent and Ok, but did not blow me away. The servers were nice and professional, and they did give us good service, so that is all that mattered to me. The food was very good and delicious. I ordered the Orange Chicken lunch special and my friend ordered the Mongolian chicken lunch special. The orange chicken was good and prepared just right. It was very flavorful and the texture of the chicken was perfect. My friend enjoyed her Mongolian chicken as well. It was a nice lunch and a great place to come for Chinese food, so I would recommend Chef Wu to my friends in Roswell if they were looking for a place to eat for lunch. read more

I ordered the beer duck, which I had never tried before but was thoroughly impressed by the quality and quantity. If you want to impress your guests, order this. It comes with white rice or fried rice for a small fee, but the fried rice was probably the best I've ever had. The service was excellent, and the food arrived on time. My first visit here was a great experience, and if I didn't have to travel an hour, I would return. read more

Such a random night to get Asian food, and yet walking away with such a great experience. I enjoyed the food here, the vibe here, and everything was so flavorful. That night, granted, I was so hungry. But the food that came out was delicious. Fried rice, Shrimp, and vegetables, different sides as well. I wish I had pictures. But I know I enjoyed my meal, and maybe one day I'll get takeout from here on another random night! read more

Always a good spot for quick and tasty food. Nice atmosphere, quick service and good quality is always consistent. Never had a bad experience in all the times I've been to Chef Wu! Go there, you'll love it too! read more

After ordering Chinese food on Uber Eats from a couple different places and being sorely disappointed, I was wondering if good Chinese food was possible in Roswell. I happened to see Chef Wu as we were coming out of a neighboring restaurant and decided to add it to my bookmarks for a future outing. Hubby and I decided to give it a go a couple weeks ago and we were both impressed enough to come back a second time not too long after. Each visit was a 5-stat experience. Quality service with finger-licking good food and reasonable prices means this gem easily slid into my favorites list for regular dining out rotation. So far I have tried the scallion pancakes, the beef fried rice, the orange chicken, and the home style honey roasted chicken. Everything was delicious but my favorite is the homestyle honey chicken. This is by far, the best chicken I have had anywhere. It's like a mix of sweet and sour sauce with honey and it is EPIC! It goes beautifully with the white rice and the leftovers are just as good the next day, which is not something I can say for most meals. The scallion pancakes were a little greasier than I would have preferred, but they were crispy and had good flavor. The orange chicken was probably the best orange chicken I've had but it can't really compete with the honey one. The fried rice has a lot of soy sauce, which I thought made it better than the average fried rice from other places. My husband tried the wonton soup, which he liked but I didn't taste. Overall, Chef Wu is as good as it gets when it comes to Chinese in this area. I will certainly be back and highly recommend you check it out too. read more

So good. I recommend... everything. The roasted duck bone soup is a wonderful family starter. The shredded pork with spicy garlic sauce is just.... Amazing. Try the potstickers and do not sleep on the Grandma noodles. The hot and numbing chicken is an an incredible experience. Get the dry fried eggplant. Thank me later. read more

Went last night for the first time and had an amazing experience. Everything we ordered was spot on, came out steaming hot and was perfectly prepared. I can't say enough good things! It far exceeded any expectations we had. If you know good Chinese food, it will not disappoint!! And our server Billi was helpful and very attentive. Can't wait to go back soon! read more

So here's the deal with this restaurant - there are certain items that are good, and there are certain items that are bad. The good include salt and pepper prawns; bamboo shoots and dried bean curd (tofu) with beef, pork, or chicken; green beans; crispy beef; three kinds mushroom with chicken; and the cold noodle appetizer. The bad items are included in my reviews below. Stick with the good, and you'll enjoy this restaurant. read more

We haven't gone to this restaurant but done takeout a few times. One big issue, all the dishes have a lot of dried red chillies. They all seem to taste the same - because of the red chillies and the ash pepper. My fave thing here is the egg plant appetizer and hotpot veggies - all the meat and seafood dishes have a similar base. read more

We loved Chef Wu! We enjoy similar dishes at Asia Kitchen in Knoxville, TN and Peter Chang in Richmond,VA. Especially the dry fried Eggplant, double cooked chicken, and Mongolian beef. Excellent food AND service! read more

We were so looking forward to trying Chef Wu, but what a disappointment. Our first hint should have been how empty it was. The best part of our dinner experience was how pleasant the restaurant decor was. It was down hill from there. We ordered Xiao Long Bao first as our appetizer. Even though we ordered it first while we looked over the menu, one of our entrees was served first, before our appetizer was served. I rate the Xiao Long Bao a 2 out of 5. The skin was a bit dry and chewy and the filling a bit bland. I've had better frozen ones from Costco and Trader Joe's and expected a lot more from Chef Wu. Our two entrees consisted of Three Mushroom Chicken which was good and chicken quite moist and tender thought the flavor lacked any depth in flavor. We were looking forward to the Vegetable Fried Tofu Pot which was very disappointing. Though it looked good with fresh vegetables, the Fried Tofu pieces were on the dry and chewy side and the sauce very one dimensional, that dimension being SALT! It definitely needed rice to eat it with. After finishing my SMALL bowl of rice, I asked for a little more rice. When I got the check, there was a $2 added charge for a small bowl of rice! You would at least expect the waitress to inform me at the time I asked for some. There are so many other good Asian restaurant choices around, so don't bother with this one. Chef Wu was a huge disappointment and we don't plan on ever coming back! read more

Incredible ambiance, and incredible service! We chose to eat here on a whim, driving back to Sandy Springs from Alpharetta and it was an awesome choice! This is not your typical Chinese cuisine, though they do offer your classic dishes everyone loves. Pig Knuckles and Pig Intestines are a specialty (and authentic) part of their menu. We didn't try any of them, but definitely will next visit. Upscale, but casual enough not to be fine dining--but more upscale than your takeout Chinese restaurant. I love some spice in my life, and order the Szechuan Fried Fish, and in return as you can see in the photo, it's MASSIVE. So delicious, and just enough spice! You can request any spicy dish to the level spice desired! The Homestyle Fried Chicken w/ their homemade sweet and sour sauce was also incredible. Just sweet and savory enough to eat half the plate! We started with the Spinach Bao Bun and they were delicious, and you could tell EVERYTHING was made fresh to order. We will definitely return and with others to join! 100% recommend this spot! Lunch or dinner! read more

If you live in the north Atlanta suburbs, Chef Wu is a great option for authentic Szechuan or American Chinese classics. Located in Roswell right off of Holcomb Bridge Road, this easily accessible spot has a spacious interior and is very quick with take out orders. We picked up an early dinner from here and had a an excellent meal. We ordered the cumin lamb, vegetable hot pot, the mapo tofu, the home style honey chicken, and Szechuan style cooked fish. The cumin lamb is a staple from Chef Wu; this time, as usual, it was super tender and well spiced. The lamb comes with onions and peppers and is always a highlight. The vegetable hot pot comes with lotus root, bok choy, cauliflower, wood ear mushroom, bell pepper, and onions. This dish is comprehensive and a good addition if you're looking for some fiber in your meal. The mapo tofu is the most standard of the Szechuan dishes but the numbing spices pair nicely with the rice that comes with it. The home style honey chicken is an American Chinese invention that is like a sweet sesame chicken-type dish without the sesame seeds. Would probably want to try the sesame chicken next time rather than this but it was still tasty. The Szechuan style cooked fish are essentially fried fish fillets tossed in Sichuan peppercorns and red chilis. This is my absolute favorite dish; it's crunchy on the outside, soft on the inside, and seasoned very nicely. Keep in mind that if you bring it home, the pieces might not be crispy when you get home. We always air fry the pieces when we get home but a toaster oven would also work well. Each entree comes with rice if you choose, but the online ordering system allows you to modify this and request no rice or other rice options. read more

We traveled far and wide to get to this place. Was it worth it, yes, it was !!! I've had a hankering for Chinese food ever since we moved here. I had asked a Facebook group if there was any good Chinese restaurants here. The people told me get back on the plane and go to Brooklyn then come back home. Well, I didn't have to get on a plane, but I had to drive a little while. The place is open airy and sunny. The waiters were nice and friendly. We ordered the wonton soup for two, shrimp fried rice, and the Szechuan string beans, and bay-be when I tell you the rice and the string beans were overflowing the plate and the taste felt like I was back home!! I'll return after I gas up again!! read more

use to be my go to spot for vegetable fried & chicken fried rice...until i got sick(diarrhea) from eating here.

What can I say, nothing is mediocre here. Bring your antacids because the Szechuan chilis (Numbing Peppers) flow freely here. Now don't get me wrong, this isn't spicy for the sake of heat, it's all flavour! Don't even get me started on the super star of their menu - the Crispy Beef with Numbing Peppers. And their Pork Belky isn't far behind. For starters, if you have a small group, get the roast duck bone broth. Beware the duck bones but absolutely bask in the rich broth, the still crunchy cabbage, and the perfectly paired vermicelli rice noodles. And you can't go wrong with the spicy cucumber salad. Both of these starters give you a glimpse into the potential of real Chinese cuisine that most people never experience. And, to top it all off, their service is amazing. Always filled tumblers, and they even have a couple of interesting mixed drinks you'll want to try. Throw caution to the wind and bring on the spice. read more

My second evisit , Hot and Sour Soup, Fried Pot Stickers and the Twice Cooked Pork.. I wanted to try something else but the twice cooked port is so exceptional that I find it hard to order anything else. The BEST twice cooked port I have ever tasted. I will order something else next time but it was so good again. Having a restaurant like this in a small shopping center is such a gift. And amazing service as well. I will always be back to this exceptional restaurant. read more

My dinner and service were great. Started with the chili wontons followed by an entree of Spicy & Numbing Hot Pot with Beef. The entree was a recommendation of the waiter and was very good to discover. The restaurant was doing a ton of takeout business with few in-store dinners.

Hidden gem! We came here with about 8-9 people and it was a weekend but they accommodated us so quickly. They brought out my toddlers food first which was so kind (hangry kids need their lo mein lol!). ALL OF THEIR FOOD WAS SO GOOD! The spice level was appropriate to what we wanted spicy versus not spicy. Portions were large and that was amazing since we all love to eat family style. I can't even tell you half the things we tried but we got about 10 entrees and came home with plenty of leftovers. Veggies are fresh and you can tell because they aren't soggy, they are crisp and cooked to perfection - asparagus side was 10/10. I do remember their cumin chicken being a group favorite! Parking is easy in the plaza. The ambiance is nice and casual! read more

Authentic and delicious! Must go if you love Chinese food, especially if spicy such as Hunan or Sichuan.

Great food. Horrible customer service. The guy managing the front of the house for takeout cannot speak English well enough to understand the customer. He asked my name and I told him my first name and last name. He didn't understand me. Showed him my driver's license and he couldn't read it. Apparently the order was under my first name, which was what I first told him and he didn't understand. So he accusingly asked me "why did you use the wrong name?" Good lord. Exhausting. Will stick with Asian Kitchen. They're MUCH nicer. read more

Very underwhelming! The location is nice but the service was poor and the food was blah. We came for lunch and they had these deals for lunch... which were not much of a deal. My wife asked the server for recommendations and he waffled back and forth between half the menu. My wife order on me if his recommendations... First we ordered an appetizer of pan fried dumplings... we love pan fried dumplings... but these fell very flat. The my wife got her food... it was one of the specials the server recommended... I can't remember the name of it. She picked at it but in the end left 90% of it for them to have back. It was not edible! We were so hoping for a good culinary experience but I have to say this one fell flat. It was not cheap either... my dish was just bland... it's like the chef left the seasoning out of the food. This is not a venue that we will be returning too. read more

Chef Wu - Szechuan Near Me - Roswell, Georgia

Chef Wu is one of East Roswell's best kept secrets! Offering delicious, authentic, Sichuan and Hunan meals in a quiet, clean, and relaxing setting, it is by far one of my favorite eateries in the area. The food is always delicious, aromatic, and beautifully plated. The staff is welcoming, attentive and your fresh food is quickly prepared. Entree portions are enough to serve a family of 4 and in comparison to other restaurants, the pricing is great! If you're in the mood for authentic Chinese cuisine, Chef Wu will not disappoint! read more

I've lived in this area for over three years, but as a creature of habit, I don't venture beyond the trusted names. Shame on me. I don't know how long this has been here, but it's a first for me. The chimes at the front door let you know, you're coming into a chillax destination. The layout of the restaurant seems a bit mom/pop'py, but I like that. If you're unforgiving and expect only the best of everything when it comes to the fact that a 'wet floor' sign is stored in the middle wall section, because it's practical, even if not perfect... then you'll probably find things to pick at here.... But me... I walked in.... I was greeted immediately, and not for more than 2-3 minutes at a time, was I ever without someone in short range to ask for help if I wanted it... though I didn't... because they offered and anticipated all my needs before I needed to ask for anything. I know it's not Japanese, but part of me hoped to see plum wine or sake but that is not at the bar here... but... OMG... you MUST try the Lavender Lemonade! The freshness and subtle kick makes this a perfect dinner and date drink both... I had to and no issues at all... but this was an ENJOYABLE drink... if that makes sense... it's not to feel it (though somewhere into the 2nd, even if pacing, you might start to... so be drink responsibly). But as an essential oils fanatic, I ADORED the fresh lavender in this drink... in fact, I'm taking them home with me. As far as the meals themselves... I got a simple chicken fried rice... it's a much larger serving than it appears but the chicken is perfectly thin-sliced and not once did I have to wonder what I might bite into... the quality was wonderful. The Mapo Tofu, according to my (adult) son was 'spicy' but nothing extreme (though he likes things really spicy, so exercise caution). Now that we've found this place, we'll definitely put it on our 'regular' list of destinations. If I had to pick one thing that wasn't 9-10... the fortune cookies might have been a little over baked.... But by the time we got to fortune cookies, trust me, we didn't care! read more

Awesome Chinese restaurant in Roswell. Very happy there's a good authentic restaurant in Roswell so when I'm at my in-laws I can enjoy yummy good within 10min drive. They also have a beautiful full bar for your cocktail needs ;) We got the mapo tofu, twice cooked pork and a fish fry pot. My favorite was the twice cooked pork but everything else was very good as well. Service was also very good. Our waitress took great care of us. read more

Nice to get some Szechuan flavor up in the burbs without having to go on a spiritual pilgrimage to Pleasant Hill or Buford Highway. Overall, this place offers a variety mixed with classics and a bit of retelling for some. This is what I ordered: - Scallion bubble pancake. Basically very thin, very little scallions, very oily, very disappointing. Doesn't look like the menu picture. Peanut sauce was good. - Xiao Long Bao. Decent. Not the best, not the worst. - Szechuan Chili Wonton. Pretty darn good. The soup base comes in is delicious and so are the wontons. - Home Style Honey Roasted Fish. Really good. It's a big sweet so be ready for that, but the flavors are on point. - Salt & Pepper Calamari. Good flavor but way too salty and way too expensive. Skip it. - Crispy Beef w/ Hot Numbing Pepper. Don't miss this dish. This is really good. It's fried beef with dry spices, mixed with peppers. It will light you up so have some rice ready to go. :-) read more

I think Chinese food can be pricey, but quality should be part of it as well. I stumbled upon this place as I wanted to try something new and constantly eating off of Buford Highway (which is never a bad thing) I thought to look to the other side. My visit here I sort of went off the ropes and sort of ordered a good amount of everything. I mean, I had leftovers...for days. I started the meal off with Basil Kisses, which really reminded me of a moscow mule but it had more of a basil flavor (obviously). We shared Xiao Long Bao, Szechuan Double Cooked Pork, Braised Fish In Chili Oil, and Peking Duck. Thoughts: I wouldn't recommend the Xiao Long Bao from here, as I felt that there wasn't really any soup in the dumplings and there wasn't any soup spoon for you to eat the dumping from. I also felt that the skin was a bit thick, so I would say to skip the Xiao Long Bao if you were here. Szechuan Double Cooked Pork: Thinly sliced pork belly with a chili sauce. Absolutely delicious. I would say this was my favorite dish of the night as it carried well in the leftovers/takeout that we didn't finish the night we were there. Braised Fish in Chili Oil: I think this was one of the best dishes. It looks more intimidating than it actually is. The fish was great and I honestly think that the chili oil/take out leftovers were better the next day! Peking Duck: This was supposed to be the highlight of the meal. But I find myself often wanting more wrappers, as there's usually more duck than wraps. So, I have to say it wasn't bad the duck was crispy, everything was good, it was just the let down as far as the wraps. Maybe more wraps? Overall, Chef Wu wasn't bad. I definitely see myself coming back here. They have a wide variety of dishes that I have yet to try and probably will. If you're looking for some good Chinese food, this place should be on the list. read more

I wanted some Chinese food. It was recommended that I try chef wu's. The photos and reviews all looked good. So I tried it. When I got the food home the food smelt good. Well when I actually got to taste it I was very disappointed I ordered orange chicken, fried rice along with pork won ton soup. The pork in the won tons was very dry and grainy and the broth was very oily. The fried rice had no favor and was very hard. Lastly the orange chicken was very tough like freezer burned. A complete waste. And turn off. I would not recommend this restaurant read more

Great restaurant. My family celebrated Christmas earlier so we came Christmas Day for early dinner. We had a bigger party but they were able to accommodate as soon as we walked in.
