Pork potstickers
Krystal N.

The only good thing we had was the pork potstickers. The skin was thin and perfectly chewy, and the filling was abundant and flavorful. Chairman mao's pork is supposed to be made with the fatty cuts - theirs was almost all lean dry cuts. The egg rolls are a skip - big and crispy but filling is eh. Service took a long time so don't try to come if you have a short lunch break.

Menu
Dawn W.

I would say it's good. It's not great and it's no where near terrible. We used to come here years ago when it was another name and the menu was very different and loved it. I have been looking to try it, but finally went tonight. I would say most of the menu is more authentic cuisine with things I would never dare try, and a small section in the front of more American style meals, but if you want rice, you have to pay extra because it doesn't come with your meal. I ordered the Mongolian Shrimp and it was good. Nothing wrong with it except shrimp was overcooked and had tails still on and there was absolutely nothing else in it except for onions, scallions, and sauce. Not much flavor except, well, the onions. My husband had basically Cashew Chicken and really enjoyed it. It's big and clean inside with pleasant music playing and service was fine, with the exception of my meal being brought out a solid 5 minutes before my husband's. Overall, not bad, but not as good as the last place was years ago.

红油牛筋 C9. Coriander Beef Tendon in Chili Sauce- it is a cold dish and it was coated in a delicious chili oil.
Amy T.

The ambiance was very relaxing. The space was very elegant and inviting. Our waitress was very nice and friendly. The food was simply amazing Every dish wasn't just spicy, there was a ton of complex, delicious flavors. Everything was so good; a second serving of rice was definitely a must, there is an extra $1 charge per bowl. ----------------- 红油牛筋 C9. Coriander Beef Tendon in Chili Sauce- It is a cold dish and it was coated in a delicious chili oil. A little tongue numbing for those who cannot handle spice. 沸腾鱼 D1. Boiled Fish Fillet with Ash Powder and Chili- The filet was so smooth and soft. This dish was not spicy at all. 鱼香茄子 G12. Eggplant with Garlic Sauce- The eggplant was one of the most complex dishes. Not as spicy either, so umami!! The eggplant was so tender!

Wonton soup

Masterpiece is an authentic Szechuan Chinese restaurant in Johns Creek and offers a plethora of your standard Chinese dishes like sesame chicken, kung pao etc. as well as more unique dishes like duck blood stew, pig's feet, tripe and more. My family and I came to celebrate Chinese New Year of the rabbit and decided to stick with the classics as we weren't feeling particularly adventurous that day. We shared the: Sesame chicken 5/5 plump and juicy chicken with a side of fresh broccoli Shrimp with mixed veg 5/5 family favorite with perfect seasoning Sizzling beef with white rice 5/5 my personal favorite! Was delivered to the table hot and sizzling. Delicious marinade. Wonton Soup 3/5 had a beef filling and low on broth. Not a traditional wonton. Overall, had a great dining experience although the service could use some improvement. We had 5 different servers at our table and it was confusing. Come try the food, however!

Fried G11. Eggplant with Chili Powder and Pepper Ash Powder

First off, this is the "same" Masterpiece that's on Buford Hwy. I don't understand when one is closed and when the other one is open. We live near the JC one but drove all the way Buford Hwy to find that one closed then drove back to JC and found this one open. I'm not sure how their schedule works, it's not listed on their schedule and not worth the effort. Food is so overpriced and overly numbing with more MSG than I can handle (I can eat pretty numbing but this is too much). We ordered one dish that comes with intestines and some other things ($30) but it was mostly spam. For $30??? Rice is not complimentary and costs $1/bowl. They just ask you if you want rice and will not tell you it costs $1/bowl. Their kitchen is also extremely slow. If you want to add dishes later, they'll tell you it'll take forever and that it's better to order all at once. My family and I visited when there was a tropical storm and rain was leaking through the roof where my dad was sitting. They didn't move us to a different table and just said no big deal basically. There was a giant puddle near him causing a big safety issue. Also feel like some raindrops fell into our food.

Spacious, classy interior
Angela Y.

I was so excited to see that a new Chinese restaurant had opened in this spot (since I had frequented the Chinese restaurant that was located here before, which was different). We visited on a Sunday evening, and the restaurant was fairly empty - service was prompt. The interior is classy and spacious. The restaurant is quite large with a full bar as well. The menu was expansive and had a Sichuan influence. For food, we ordered: A1 Szechuan Bean Jelly (川北凉粉), G12 Eggplant with Garlic Sauce (鱼香茄子), D10 Fish Fillet w. Pickled Cabbage & Chili (酸菜鱼), F29 Sizzling Beef with Black Pepper (铁板黑椒牛). Note that rice was $1 per bowl rather than a family-style bowl. We also got a pot of chrysanthemum tea. The jelly was a great appetizer and had a subtle mala and vinegar flavor. I often order eggplant at Chinese restaurants, and we all thought that this was the best garlic eggplant we've ever had. The garlic flavor was strong, and the sauce was delicious but not oily. I loved that it had a good balance of salty and sweet. Another favorite was the pickled fish soup. The serving was large (could feed 4-5 people), and the fish was fresh. The beef was just okay - I couldn't really taste the black pepper, but it was otherwise cooked well. Overall, we all thought that this was a delicious, authentic meal at a good price point and with a nice ambience. Looking forward to bringing our friends here in the future!

Hot and sour soup,  chicken
Lauren O.

I don't know why there are lower ratings for this place. 1. The building is beautiful. Easy to access and park. Super new and pretty inside. Gorgeous decorations. 2. All staff was so nice and wanted to help us. They even brought us complimentary hot and sour soup. 3. The food was delicious and amazing. Lots of spicy but as expected. And so many options. Can't wait to go back.

Dumplings (It's their signature dumpling)
Y Yelp Y.

Still good Chinese food. Can adjust your level of spice if you're not into that. Fried rice, salt and pepper fish was really really good. As was the Peking duck special. Delish as usual. Yum.

Good luck. This place is very overrated. Try anyplace else. Average at best. Order enough beer to get the taste out of your mouth.

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!

We decided to try this place based on the high ratings, but unfortunately, our experience didn't…read morequite live up to the expectations. We were a party of 5 and found both the food and the service to be inconsistent. The Food: Most dishes were mediocre or worse. The Three Cups Chicken (1/5) was the worst I've ever had. The Hong Kong Style Shrimp (1/5) was just bland, tasteless fried shrimp. The Lamb with Scallion (2/5) was far too salty. The only "average" dish was the Spicy Beef and Tendon (3/5), but one decent dish can't save a meal this poor. The Service & Billing: The service was quite slow during our visit. We waited a long time for the check and eventually ended up packing our own leftovers and heading to the front counter to pay so we could head out. I was also surprised to see an automatic 20% gratuity added to the bill, especially since it was calculated on the total after tax ($23.07 tip on a $106.80 subtotal). While I understand automatic tips for groups, it felt a bit high due to poor services. There are a lot of great dining spots in the area, but based on this disappointing visit, I'm sure I would not return to this one.

It's a little confusing when you first enter, but the buffet is through the door on your left. You…read morecan also turn right and enter the café area. Once you enter the buffet, there's a drink station with iced tea, hot ginger tea, and water. The ginger tea was especially fragrant and made for a great palate cleanser. I highly recommend the scallion chicken, green beans, century egg porridge, and stir-fried celery. These were all dishes that reminded me of what my Chinese friends' moms would make at home--very comforting, flavorful, and well-seasoned. I personally don't like overly salty Asian food, so the seasoning was perfect for me. Everything tasted very authentic and homemade. Don't expect a huge selection like you would find at a typical Chinese buffet. There were around 20-30 different dishes, ranging from comfort foods and shumai and dimsum to desserts. I actually liked the smaller selection because everything felt more intentional and authentic rather than like a massive spread. It also seems like they change the menu fairly often, so don't expect to see the exact same dishes every time you visit. I actually think that's a pleasant surprise and gives you a reason to come back and try something different. They also host a lot of events, so you may see activities happening on the other side of the buffet area. I thought that added to the atmosphere and made the place feel very welcoming. One tip: if your party is larger than four people, definitely call ahead so they can arrange seating for you!
