Grandma BBQ Pork Tossed Noodle
Kristen D.

Stopped by here to grab takeout after a conference. The service was great. The woman who checked us out made sure we didn't have any allergies based on what we ordered. The food was quick, hot, delicious, and authentic. The menu is long so it's hard to choose between all the yummy options! Very tasty.

I have always seen this place but never went inside so my boyfriend and I took the time to make our way here. In a shopping center with TONS of parking sits food terminal! It's an asian restaurant food that offers seating inside and outside. Once we entered we were seated immediately and handed menus. Their menus are super cool and unique and are a bit overwhelming but nevertheless full of so much variety. The waitress was very sweet and checked in on us periodically and helped us fill out our sheet to place our order. We ordered a plethora of stuff such as crispy bulgogi bao buns, brushed sprouts, steamed dumplings, mango chicken and a noodle plate. Food didn't take long for it to come out on their little robot and staff helped put everything on the table. Everything smelled and looked amazing so it was tough to decide what to taste first! I first tried the crispy bao bun and was blown away by the flavor it had! It was like a mini burger. After that I tried the steamed dumplings and they were so yummy and specially with the sauce. Next I tried the Brussels sprouts and they were necessary my cup of tea but still good! Just wouldn't order again. Second to last thing I tried the mango chicken and man was it good!!! Full of the best aroma and flavor and cooked to perfection. The plating was also gorgeous as well!! We finished off with mango sticky rice and It was good but I do wish it had more mango to help the ratio. Overall, it was a really good visit and I was excited to try it out. It was a bit pricey but we did order a lot so it may be a special occasion once we come back again but I'd definitely be back!

The presentation of this food was beautiful! However, it lacked flavor for us. The service was great and we loved that they had a large selection. We found this place on TikTok. Maybe will have to try something else next time. Their sriracha sauce was good.

(PS) Salted Egg Yolk Shrimp- oops, started to eat it before pic- the breading on the shrimp was unique and the noodles were lovely!

It is a lovely atmosphere to walk in from the front door... clean and sharp lines in a very open space. We stopped by on a Saturday afternoon (dining here was on our list) and while the restaurant was sparsely attended at noon, the other stores in the strip mall were packed and it made parking a little tricky. The spots are quite small. We order a sundry of items off of the menu and I thought they were good. Certainly tried some new dishes. My favorite was the spicy chili chicken wontons. I could have eaten all eight of them myself. The cheong fun spicy chicken was beautiful but not a favorite. We debated which one of the salted egg yolk dishes to get- a preparation I had never tried- and landed on the fried shrimp and garlic noodles. It was good... we ordered two orders of roti- four pieces total- and that was a bit disappointing serving size wise for the three of us. Our server was lovely and the food came out hot and well spiced. I will return and make some additional choices from the menu.

Lychee GreenTea
Janet W.

My Family came for anan early Thursday dinner and were immediately seated. Parking was easy to find. We enjoyed the steamed chicken dumplings and fried okra with mango dipping sauce for appetizers. Both were delicious! The wonton soup has a large serving of shrimp wontons. Son ordered the lychee green tea with boba which he liked. I got the Michelin recommended honey butter shrimp with garlic noodle which came with a tasty sweet sauce. My daughter said that their mango sticky rice was her favorite of all places. We liked the little robot which talked and carried hot food to our table. Our server was super kind especially when we had a large food spill. Service was outstanding!

Food Terminal has become one of my "go to's" for a delicious meal. The cuisine is described as Malaysian street food and they have tons of items to choose from. They share a parking lot with several other businesses, but the parking is free and I've never had an issue finding a space. I've been here quite a few time over the years. Although they have an expansive menu, my favorite things to order are the grandma wonton bbq pork with tossed noodles and the roti with chicken curry. The mango shrimp are delicious as well. They also have tasty cocktails. There's even a robot that comes around to deliver food to the table. I've always received pleasant customer service and I'd totally recommend coming here for a tasty meal.

Nasi Lemak Fried Chicken Rice

It's been a hot minute since I've been to Food Terminal, but I came back with a group if friends and had a decent time. It was busy inside, but our party of 10 was promptly seated, though we were a little squished into a circular table. I didn't remember this last time, but instead of telling a server what you want, you mark it down on a paper menu and hand it to the server. This time I got the Grandma's BBQ Pork Noodles and the Salted Egg Yolk Shrimp Garlic Noodle. I was really excited to try both since they both sounded so good. Ultimately the Grandma's BBQ Pork Noodle was a little underwhelming - the noodles themselves weren't very flavorful, and the BBQ pork was on the drier side. The pork did have decent flavor, and all the toppings/side items (wontons, fried egg, bok choy) were great, but all in all fell a little short of my hopes. The Salted Egg Yolk Garlic Noodles had better flavor, but I could've used even more garlic and butter. The shrimp definitely carried the salted egg yolk flavor, but the fried batter was a bit soggy/soft in my opinion. I wished it was crisper. Service was a tad slow, but perhaps they're understaffed and/or it was busy that night. I do love the menu concept of positioning it like a magazine catalog - it makes for a fun experience instead of just words on paper

Zai tofu

When in ATL we like to stop by, this time we did the usual Thai chili chicken Chong fun, a beef bulgogi bao, salted egg yolk garlic noodle and zhaCai pan mee noodle. Service was good never overwhelming here. Food went down a notch sadly. The bao was overly sweet and beef, too minced. Chong fun was great again, garlic noodle while shrimp were salty and good the dish needed more sauce. The saddest was my entree ZhaCai (mushroom based) noodle dish. It just lacked flavor, even salt at home didn't fix.

Food Terminal is one of my favorite restaurant spots around Atlanta. They are now on the Michelin Guide and rightfully so. Their food is extremely tasty and they have a huge variety. They are both vegetarian and vegan friendly with lots of options. My favorite today was the unagi bao. My go-to favorites are the garlic butter shrimp noodles and Grandma's BBQ Pork. Although I did not drink today, they have great cocktail options as well. This location is accessible with plenty of parking. There was plenty of seating for midday on a Sunday. The waiters are friendly and efficient, and they use these robot machines to help bring food to your table. It's a fun experience and the food comes out quickly.

Beef Rendang Roti
Coty S.

Yelp is one of the only places left where people read about food... so I'm here to write about it. This spot has been on my list forever, and I quickly understood what makes it special on my first try. I'm 100% here for the 腸粉 cheung fun in bold, fusion flavors. While not as layered and delicate as what I've had in Malaysia and Hong Kong, it definitely satiated the craving. Sure, I ordered at least 6 dishes here, but nothing comes close to their cheung fun. Will be back to try every flavor. I sat outdoors for a classic hawker vibe. No one got the memo or understood the assignment, as ususal. After seeing so much fuss about Food Terminal online, I avoided it for almost a year. I FINALLY visited and figured out that the influencers they hired just didn't get the memo, as usual. This is because businesses don't promote with foodies that actually understand the cuisine. So sad, but at least I FINALLY went here!

Calamari with Mango Sauce
Lou E.

Just down right love this place. First time was an about 5 or 6 years ago and loved it and then forgot about it. The first of the year we decided to return and glad we did. Have since been three more times. The last trip a couple of weeks ago we dragged a couple of friends and they fell in love with Food Terminal. This is the way to go try Food Terminal...you get lots of different tastes if you go with the correct people!!! We arrived a bit after 1:00PM so that some of the lunch crowds had thinned. We asked for a seat with that might be a little quieter and it was. Service is always great. Ask and they deliver. How nice. We sat over to one side closer to the windows and the noise level was fine. Then there was the ordering of food. We wanted everything. We settled on the Honey Butter Shrimp on a Salad, the Grandma BBQ Pork on Noodles with Egg, Fried Calamari with a Mango Sauce, an order of Fried Wontons, Pork Belly Crispy Bao, and Shiitake Mushroom Cheong Fun. Everything was perfect. And all agreed that the best and favorite dish was the Honey Butter Shrimp. The Pandan sauce that accompanies this fried shrimp is to die for. I could eat it with a spoon. The fried Calamari was some of the best we have had. The texture was perfect...not too chewy and the mango sauce only enhanced the taste. Both my wife and I were a little leery of the garlic noodles but they were only enhanced by a small hint of garlic making them almost addictive. Service was great. Not rushed at all. A nice leisurely lunch. Prices are somewhat reasonable when looking at the quality of ingredients, the portion size and today's costs. Highly recommend and will definitely return.

(PS) Curry Spare Ribs ~$20 would not get again, salty
Hannah L.

Arrived here, not knowing this place was Michelin guide in 2024. Had high expectations when we found out, but our experience was let down by overly salted dishes or lack of flavors in others. No wait on a Monday afternoon. - Hot Tea $3.5: Was given two cups of hot water which was nice, as were able to split the tea bag into two uses. Strong GT flavor. - Penang Prawn $16.95: I liked how there was both rice thin noodles and egg thin noodles. Fish cake and prawns were yummy. Broth itself lacked flavor and was not memorable. - Egg Yolk Brussel Sprouts $8.95: good flavor and crisp, but on the saltier end. - Curry Spare Ribs w Rice $19.95: Fall off the bone, but the sauce was also salty ): - Shrimp Bone Marrow $16.95: Similar egg noodles to the penang. I did like the broth of this better, although it wasn't as rich as I hoped. Egg was perfect boiled with a runny center. No fresh chilis here, just chili oil which had a nice kick. Accidentally indicated the wrong dish on the menu but I feel this could have been avoided if servers confirmed the order before submitting it. Our waitress was good tho. I would still consider coming back here to give this place another shot as they have an extensive menu (I was surprised to see how thick they're menu was lol)

Curry Tofu Noodle Soup
Maggie H.

Came back to try some of their more famous foods (and why they're michelin recommended)! I got the garlic bone marrow noodle soup. The soup was warming and refreshing. The restaurant is freezing cold though, so doing soup was a good choice. The Szechuan bone marrow soup was also really good and not very spicy. It just has the typical chili oil flavor but wasn't too spicy. I'd get that next time. We shared some beef fried rice because the server said it was large. It was a large portion. Oily and flavorful.

Reviews are largely positive. Diners highlight the extensive menu, flavorful dishes, and modern, spacious ambiance. Service is often described as friendly.

Is there patio seating with heaters available?

Patios at Chamblee, yes. Heaters, no.

What items on the menu are halal?

There is no halal food on the menu

Do they take reservations?

They do not. I've used Yelp's waitlist option in the past but it's not always there (maybe only when they're super busy)

Is there vegan options here? I love the food here but we have a out of town guest who is vegan. Thanks!

There are vegan options but they are limited to vegetables and rice. Stay away from the yong tofu as it is filled with ground meat mixture or fish paste. The ginger rolling hot plate is a good vegan option.

Is there anything truly vegetarian (no animal broth or products other than egg or dairy)?

Well truly vegetarian would be vegan and I don't think they carry anything vegan on their menu

Is there a to go menu?

Yes, their To Go menu is a 4-panel folded pamphlet available from any server. The menu lists everything and shows pictures of select items.

Does Food Terminal offer gluten free options?

Yes! When you read the Food Terminal Magazine, it will inform you in the top right hand corner what it is, and if it's gluten free

What's the best meal here?

Grandma's BBQ Pork with noodles.

I went to this restaurant several years ago and I do not remember every dish we got but our table…read morewas full of delicious food. The pace is fast in the restaurant and the service is attentive and once you order your food comes out quickly to the table. Every dish we ordered was delicious. It is one of those establishments that you want to hurry and eat as there are people waiting to be seated and you don't want to linger too long because that would not be fair to them. You have plenty of time and noone is rushing you you just know to be a decent human being you should eat and then leave promptly and not linger over empty dishes. Their portions are hearty though so you will most likely have take out to enjoy as well. I highly recommend this restaurant and if I lived closer I would frequent it often. I wish I could be more detailed about the dishes we ordered but I just don't remember but I still wanted to give them a good review. Just remember to be polite and not tarry like you would not tarry at a Waffle House when it is full because this restaurant is going to always be full I suspect!

La Mei Zi offers a pretty complete menu, from different entrees, soups, noodles and more…read more One visit is not enough. The place is big, casual and comfortable. The staff have a good attitude and they answer your questions about the menu. I was here with a friend and we both enjoy our dishes, they arrive fast and they were pretty flavorful. I got a classic chicken Lo Mein, the portion is very generous and it was delicious.

I really appreciate the variety that they have here when you have a craving for Asian inspired…read morefood. Shrimp fried rice, dumplings, pork buns, different types of noodles, plenty of different pork and chicken dishes to suit your pallet. And if you love shrimp, there are lots of shrimp options too. I saw on another customer's plate a dish that I had to try and I'm so glad I did. It was the salted crispy chicken from Nanbei Gourmet (B11 on the menu). It's really delicious and perfectly seasoned and plenty to share. I think the young man at the counter was having a bad day or a bit overworked because he wasn't very pleasant but I do appreciate him telling me sorry for the long wait, because it took a while to get my chicken, but it was just a busy time around lunch. It was worth the weight though. Next time I want to try those meatballs they really looked delicious and someone I was with ordered them and they had my mouth watering. And also, I got the barbecue pork on rice and the Singapore rice noodles from Hong Kong BBQ. The noodles have three different meats in it and I believe curry seasoning. The flavors are delicious. The barbecue pork over rice was pretty simple and plain, but I do appreciate that it comes with some steamed bok choy because it's nice to have a good balance of some vegetables in there with all the starch and pork. There's plenty of seating so if you go with a family or a larger group, you should be good to go and there's a place to seating outside. I had no problem finding a parking spot at 1 o'clock in the afternoon on a Saturday. I do wish they had more shops to shop at, but the couple that they do have the store owners are really nice.

The Canton House on Buford Highway is my family's go-to for authentic Cantonese dim sum in Atlanta…read more The food is always up to expectations each and every visit. Having been at least once every couple months for years, it's our Chinese comfort food as dim sum is meant to be. Although I would recommend arriving at anytime they are open, we find the absolute best time for dim sum is to arrive right at opening on Saturday or Sunday. This time lets us beat the wait, get a great table fast, and the food is super plentiful, hot and fresh out of the kitchen. The chrysanthemum tea is a must have and complements the food as a perfect, tasty, and just sweet enough palate cleanser (although I would prefer to add the rock sugar myself to my tea, they serve it with sugar already inside the pot). For the absolute best pairing with your chrysanthemum tea, make sure to save room for the awesome pineapple buns while supplies last. They were out today and we all collectively cried (will be going back just for the pineapple buns soon...we are just not complete without them!). We love all the dishes, but our absolute favorites (outside of the pineapple buns) are the pork spare ribs with black bean, the beef rice rolls/noodles, shrimp dumplings, and turnip cakes. Add some spicy sauce to the spare ribs and turnip cakes to really set them off! For iced coffee lovers who like it really strong, don't pass up on the iced coffee. It has legs that are strong enough to walk, but completely complements the dim sum with a little extra boost to help you enjoy the day. So, I challenge others to find a better dim sum place in Atlanta. That is why Canton House earns my 5th star and looking forward to getting my pineapple buns (really) soon!
