Zai tofu
Ann W.

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.

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!

Ample space to sit & parking. There is a robot server that goes around. Good for large parties, no need to reserve. Their menu is a magazine so expect hella options. Overall, food and prices are reasonable for the portions.

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

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.

As soon as that highly regarded M word pops up, I can't help but sound the skepticism alarm. Whether it's Michelin star or in this case Michelin guide choice, this recognition isn't an easy one to achieve. Food Terminal comes with a lot of hype, but is it worth it? Uhhhhh yes, yes it is. Simply put, the food is exceptional. I actually didn't want to write a review until I was able to make multiple trips and try a few different items. It's a massive menu. But From the appetizers, to the soups, to the noodles, they can do no wrong. The depth of flavor in the curry noodle soup to the fry of the calamari or shrimp....its technically beyond reproach. The honey butter garlic shrimp noodle is the stuff dreams are made of. At least my dreams. How they were able to create such bold flavors in such a simple dish is incredible. Easy to see why this dish received the Michelin recognition. I'd seriously pay big money to learn this recipe! In my opinion, Food Terminal is in contention for the best Asian dining spot in America, period.

Food Terminal is one of those spots that just hits--whether you're craving street food-style comfort or something a little more adventurous. First off, parking is easy and free (hallelujah), and the space is huge with both indoor and patio seating, which makes it perfect for groups or casual hangouts. The menu? Massive. But don't worry--they've got photos for almost every dish, which makes it easier to explore all the different flavors. Plus, they have a full cocktail and alcohol menu and bubble teas, so you're covered whether you're in the mood to sip or slurp. We ordered the roti canai (so flaky and buttery), honey butter shrimp (crispy, sweet, and addictive), nasi lemak with beef curry (super flavorful), kimchi rolling hot plate (served sizzling hot!), and the Szechuan steamed wontons (a spicy, mouthwatering bite). Every dish was on point. Also love that it's on the Michelin guide--it's well deserved. Definitely worth checking out if you're in the Chamblee area and want something tasty, fast, and fun. We will be back to try out some more items on their menu. P.S. don't miss their robot servers

Grandma BBQ Pork Tossed Noodle
Quincy P.

My daughter and I went here for lunch on a Saturday. The menu is a book but the pictures help a lot. I ordered the Grandma's BBQ Pork Fried Rice and my daughter had the Grandma's Wonton BBQ Pork Tossed Noodle. We also had the Steamed Chicken Dumplings as an appetizer. We enjoyed everything as all the food had great flavor! The waitress was very not very attentive. We waited quite a while just to ask for water and to order a beverage. My daughter had the Strawberry Peach Black Tea. We will definitely return to try other items on the menu.

6 hours Braised Beef Noodle Soup
M T.

I came in at the very last minute before they were closing, but they were gracious enough to accommodate. I had the braised beef noodle soup with glass noodle noodles and it was amazing! The service was very prompt and it was a nice chill environment.

Nasi Lemak Curry Chicken Rice
Martin R.

This is one of my favorite go to restaurants in the city. The food is flavorful, fresh and delicious! My usual dishes are Grandma's Pork Tossed Noodle or the Curry Tofu Noodle Soup, but you can't go wrong here. Overcome your preconceived notions of Asian food. Try it all. The service can be spotty but usually very good. It depends on the crowd and the server. This is a great place for groups and they do serve dishes family style. You just have to tell your friends that aren't familiar with that concept that we all buy several dishes and share. I do have friends that still want to get the mango dish and eat it all themself. I try to get them to realize that with family style they get to try many different dishes. Two thumbs up to this place.

I came here once before to meet a friend after work and had an enjoyable experience so I decided to come back. It's located in the same lot as the farmers market near Chamblee Tucker Rd and Buford Hwy, and there are many others businesses so there is plenty of parking. They do have steps and ramp access to the restaurant which is very convenient for those that can't use the stairs. They also have a patio area if you want to sit outdoors and enjoy the weather. Once you enter, there is a sign that says wait to be seated. I was immediately greeted and I asked if I could sit at the bar and was told I could sit anywhere at the bar. The greeter brought me a dessert, drink, and food menu. The bar faces the kitchen which is open so you can see the workers cooking and the bar stools do not have a back so keep that in mind if you choose to sit at the bar. Axel came over immediately and introduced himself and brought a plate, napkins, chop sticks, and a fork. Their menu is huge! I told Axel I wanted something spicy. He recommended the wontons as an appetizer and schezuen beef noodle so that is exactly what I ordered with a sprite. He brought a water and a Sprite and the fried wontons came out a few minutes after. The friend wontons were good but were not spicy at all, like they advertised. The two sauces that came with them weren't spicy either. The Szechuan beef noodle on the other hand was spicy and had just the right amount of kick. I drunk the broth and then ate some of the noodle and beef and took the rest home. The beef was tender and although the soup was good, I wouldn't order it again. It's only noodles, beef, and green onion in a spicy broth. I missed the egg and vegetables so will definitely order something different with more fixings. The soup did help me feel better because I felt I was getting a cold. There is a robot that they utilize to help serve food and drinks, which I thought was pretty cool. Axel was kind enough to put my food in the container for me. So if you are looking for a restaurant with a variety of Asian food, this is the place to go to.

Ask the Community - Food Terminal

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.

The whole setup is like a mini food hall with several authentic Chinese spots to choose from--but Chong Qing is where I landed. I ordered the crispy chicken with garlic sauce and swapped the white rice for a side of house lo mein (yes, it's an upcharge, but worth it). Everything came out on real dishes--not to-go boxes--which I loved. You order and pay at the counter, grab a seat, and they bring the food out to you. Now let's talk about the food... DELICIOUS. The spice level was just right--flavorful with a nice kick, but not overpowering. If you like it hotter, you can definitely add more heat, but I was perfectly satisfied as is. The lo mein was really good too--veggies were fresh with a nice crisp (those onions and carrots were hitting!), and everything tasted well-balanced. Only small note: I wish there was a little more meat in the dish, but it didn't take away from the overall experience. And let me say this--the portion size is VERY generous. I ate until I was full and still had just as much left to take home, which is always a win in my book. All in all, I'll definitely be back to try more. If you're in Chinatown Market and not sure what to pick, Chong Qing Hot Pot is a solid choice. 4/5 stars for me!

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.

We ordered pan fried buns and instead received Chinese donuts in the bag :( I didn't realize it until we got home, but I never had an issue with this place so it didn't occur to me that they prepared (or packed?) the wrong thing. If I ever return, I'll know to do better than expect the correct order and check everything before heading out. The crab rangoon was still flavorful but whatever dough they wrapped it with this time was so freaking tough that it cut the top of my mouth. My jaw should not get a workout from eating crab rangoon of all things. Another disappointment in the bag. But the beef entree we ordered was good, yet overshadowed by the other letdowns of the night's visit given that I can't really remember what exactly we ate. I'm going to remove another star for the unhygienic practices I witnessed that I was perhaps blissfully ignorant of my last time visiting. It's hard to look past a server comfortably coughing into their hand and proceeding to handle multiple patrons' plates and orders without as much of a squirt of sanitizer. I will say though they are quite dedicated to the customer. As I was sitting in the parking lot waiting 10-15min for my order to finish, someone clearly forgot their food and the same hacking server ran out to give it to them. Oh wait! Turns out that was actually our food being jostled around as he ran through the parking lot searching for the owner. I was watching the time and planned on returning but maybe I wasn't moving fast enough for this guy lol. He did all that just for the order to be wrong.... Damn bro. I prayed he didn't box the food. I guess we didn't come on a good day? I really don't know what happened but the entire experience was off. Based on the night's events, I don't know if I'll return. No pictures this time... I was too pissed off. Didn't fight the incorrect order either as I was too tired and really only ordered here because Northern China Eatery was closed. At least the food was decent. Heavy on the word "decent".

Overall One of the…read morebetter dim sum and Cantonese style Chinese food experiences I've had in the Duluth area. A few standout dishes were so good they almost carried the whole meal to a 5. Best dishes (the reasons to come) 1) Salt and pepper squid This one was excellent. Fried well, not greasy heavy, topped with plenty of fried garlic, plus cilantro and fresh cabbage to balance the richness. Super satisfying and well executed. 2) Dried chow fun with beef Also a standout. Great texture and temperature, well seasoned, and the ingredients felt evenly distributed instead of clumped or uneven. This dish was done right. 3) Eggplant in a small pot Served in a small pot that keeps it warm for a long time, which makes a big difference. There's a lot of sauce, but you can reduce how salty it tastes by how you scoop and serve it. Comforting and flavorful. If you ordered just these three, you'd already have a great meal. Other dishes (good, not amazing) Coconut shrimp The shrimp itself was cooked well, and I appreciated the broccoli on the side to balance the heaviness. The issue was the sauce: way too much. It got soggy fast and leaned too sweet and too salty. Next time, I'd ask for the sauce on the side so you can control it. We also tried a vegetable dish and a fish dish. Both were decent, but not particularly memorable. Tea They serve tea if you order it. The chrysanthemum tea was pretty good, and I liked that it was loose leaf. Atmosphere and service We went around 2:30 to 3:00 pm, so it wasn't crowded. The vibe felt very local and family friendly. It's an older building, but clean enough and inviting. Service was great, and it seemed even smoother if you have someone in your group who can speak Cantonese. Would I return? Yes. I'd come back, especially for the salt and pepper squid, dried chow fun with beef, and the eggplant pot.
