A cute little hole-in-the-wall place with some delicious roast pork that easily rivals other BBQ places around Duluth. The skin is crispy and not too salty, and the meat is slightly sweet. The only downside is that it was a bit cold, but nothing a little reheating can't fix. read more

Pleasant BBQ Garden is a casual eatery that serves Chinese pork, duck, and chicken over rice with cabbage. I had heard this was the place for that kind of food. It is a very simple spot with an in and out atmosphere: place an order and leave. There is barely any seating available, but it would look weird sitting and eating there. I found the service to be curt, polite, and quick, like other Chinese BBQ spots I grew up going to. I was craving traditional Lunar New Year food so I came here and ordered the Roasted Pork over Rice. I thought the price was not too bad considering the portion size was fairly hefty (obviously not as cheap as the prices in NYC). The roasted pork was seasoned well! I did not feel the need to add soy sauce like I usually do. Some parts of the skin were crispy, but other parts were a bit more rubbery so I wish the crispiness was more consistent because the meat was tasty. I was also given a small container of chili oil which did not taste spicy at all, but was a nice supplement to add to the overall dish. Overall, I think this is a nice place to grab some budget friendly Chinese roast pork. I definitely want to explore other places, but I feel good recommending this spot for someone visiting Metro Atlanta. read more

Pleasant BBQ Garden - Roasted Pork over Rice - Barbeque Near Me - Duluth, Georgia

Came by after seeing good reviews - casual take out spot with no seating. Was helped promptly and my order came out quick. For $15, I thought the box of food would have been bigger so I was disappointed in that as there are other bbq places with larger portions. We got the bbq pork and duck combo. I liked the bbq pork but the duck was a bit too fatty and no much meat on the bones. The cabbage could have been softer. Overall not bad but would rather go back to my usual spot. read more

Very good Chinese BBQ! We ordered takeout and got several different types of meats to try including the soy sauce chicken, honey bbq pork, and roast duck. All the meats were tender and flavorful while not too salty. The only negative I would give is that there is virtually no seating available if you wanted to eat inside the restaurant. It's set up more like a takeout only type restaurant. read more

Pretty good Chinese bbq at very reasonable prices. I think this place is mainly a take out restaurant.

Very tasty and value. Food court smells a bit. Service was a bit lacking. I usually togo or delivery and they forget some items like extra sauces. read more

Options for good Chinese food in Atlanta is limited, but one of my recent favorites is from Pleasant BBQ Garden. While there are some good spots in Atlanta for Chinese barbecue meats like Hong Kong Barbecue in Atlanta Chinatown, other places have gone downhill, whether it's in food quality or in service. We came during off hours and it was still pretty full inside (PRE COVID) - however there was a seat for us! We ordered the roast duck leg over rice ($0.50 more than the regular roast duck over rice) and the beef chow fun. Roast duck was on point - meat was tender and the juices flavored the rice it rested on. The beef chow fun was pretty standard - just greasy enough! I didn't prefer the ratio of bean sprouts to other ingredients (even though I love bean sprouts, generally). Overall, a tasty Chinese bbq spot that I'll need to stop by soon to try their wonton mee. Based on other reviews, they MAY be open...?! I will need to do a drive by soon to double check! read more

It wasn't what I expected walking in. It's very small however this spot has some great tasting duck. The people here are friendly and I would recommend this place to everyone that loves duck. My once a week go to. read more

Our go to spot for duck. They offer quality and a slightly better price. Haven't tried their other dishes yet

Came again on Christmas Day and ordered the usual dishes plus the followings: - BBQ combo: roasted duck, roasted pork and honey bbq pork. All are super delicious but I love the honey bbq pork. It's the best one I had in Atlanta. Can compete with stores in LA! - Chinese cauliflower with preserved meat: it was recommended to us and it was awesome! It reminded me of what I had when I was a kid in China for Chinese New Year. read more

Looked through YELP and unfortunately the change of time is not changed here on Yelp. They actually close at 7:30 and not 9pm. Drive all the way there just to find out they're closed. So Yelp people. They close at 7:30 and NOT 9 read more

Wow. Can't believe I found "Chow Fun" in Atlanta. This is the real deal, hole in the wall yes. Amazing food. I lived in San Francisco China town. This place is right up there with Sam Woo's. I love Chinese cauliflower, eggplant hot pot, honey pork. Can't go wrong. No sweet and sour chicken nuggets Sadly they closed. read more

I used to come here quite a bit. Then last week, it was a disaster with their dishes. The snow pea leaves veggie dish was decent. The chicken casserole dish with mushrooms were filled mostly with bones and very little chicken. It was not an edible dish for a customer sitting at the table. They need to up their quality. It was not a busy evening but that dish will not bring me back anytime soon. We ordered a wonton soup and the wontons were rubbery tasting. What happened? Patrons were too generous with their stars? Pleasant BBQ Gardens, you lost me as a customer. As customers, we want consistent quality and quantity. Please take care of your customers. What a sad day for me too. read more

If you're looking for HK style/legit Chinese food, come to this spot! I like this place more than Ming's BBQ. Only disadvantage of this place is it's really tiny so if there's a lunch rush on the weekends, may have to wait. This cute tiny place reminds me of all the cha chaan teng in HK with its decor. I've tried their wonton noodle soup and Peking duck - definitely did not disappoint! Prices are average as well. Located in the formerly known ASSI market plaza (now City Farmers Market), sandwiched between the Dollar Tree and Super Hibachi Buffet! :) read more

Pleasant BBQ Garden - Peking duck and winter melon soup - soup comes with dinner :) - Barbeque Near Me - Duluth, Georgia

This restaurant has become my family's go-to for Chinese bbq, especially the roast duck. I love the duck here. It it bigger and meatier than the local standard. The best part? They are very well marinated so every piece is flavorful. Oh! And the skin is nice and crispy. The prices here are a bit lower than Ming's down the street. After tax, the Beef Chow Fun was $9.01 compared to the $10+ down the street. Visually, the dosh here isn't as nice but that's because they use less oil. Unfortunately, the noodles aren't whole, a lot of them are broken due to overcooking. It's ok though because the flavor is still great and I feel a little less pudgy eating it since the fish lacks that "glistening shine" that screams "oil overload!" The one complaint I have: I've been here on multiple occasions for wonton noodle soup and it takes FOREVER to make. It's taken anywhere from 10 to 20 minutes. Trying to grab a quick lunch makes this impossible. read more

We were in Assi Plaza and decided to grab a quick dinner around the area. For once, I didn't make my decision based on Yelp reviews, and it turned out to be a good one. This place is right next to a giant buffet, so I imagine it gets overlooked often. It's a small cozy restaurant with maybe 6-8 tables. The wall is plastered images of different dishes. Helpful for novices to Cantonese food. We ordered: - BBQ roast pork noodle soup ($6.99) - 2 BBQ Meats combo ($8.29) Food is authentic and flavorful. The meats were tasty. The flavor was reminiscent of what I would get in New York Chinatown/Flushing so that was a plus. I've slowly come to realize that Asian food in Georgia is pricier in comparison. Overall, comforting and satisfying. A hidden gem of the area. read more

Pleasant BBQ Garden - 2 BBQ Meat Combo: Duck and Chicken - Barbeque Near Me - Duluth, Georgia

See all

Miserly portions. Poor value for money. I wish I had taken pictures of the plate to show you but I was so disappointed that I simply forgot. Long story short, for $8++, I ordered a 2 BBQ plate combo. The cook gave me a few pieces of roasted pork.. think maybe 2 mini Mars bars. The roast duck was worst. All bones. Morsels of meat on very big and hard bones. The wife ordered wanton noodles. Chef took forever to blanch/cook the noodles. When it did arrive, it was void of taste. No flavor, barely any sauce, .. just a lump of supermarket , store bought , stinking of soda, .. noodles. On top of the noodles were five lumps of wanton.. We have not ever had a worst meal ever. Looks like they really aren't putting in any effort to gain a customer base. I never thought I would say this.. but .. I would rather eat at McD .. than this place. read more

I don't usually into Guangdong dishes, but this restaurant changed my life. I love everything about this restaurant. It's not hard to find parking outside. When you walk inside this restaurant, you can see they took real pictures of the food they made. For their dishes, their roasted duck is the best! And their other dishes are very good too. I will definitely recommend my friend to come here and come back again. read more

My go to Hong Style BBQ place in the Duluth area. The food is always solid. It's not more of a pick up place instead of a sit down restaurant. The pan fried beef noodles, fried calamari are also good options aside from the duck, bbq pork or roast pork. read more

While looking for a true Cantonese style restaurant after my favorite closed down, i was recommended to try out this place by the infamous Daniel B.This wonderful hidden gem is something you'd drive by and not even realize it was there. It it sandwiched in a strip mall, however if you walked by the establishment, you're mouth will start to water when you see the Char Siu (Chinese pork) and the chinese pig hanging in the windows. I Typically rate a restaurant first by the quality of the meat if they are hanging their meats from the window, and this was a definite plus to even enter the restaurant. The restaurant inside is very small (very comparable to the hole in the wall restaurants you find in Flushing, NY). The small tables are cozy and they have enough room to accommodate small parties. The portions that they offer are quite plentiful, including the Chinese signature lunch deals of rice, napa and 1-3 different meals. The full meals are even better because if you want something that is not on the menu, and can speak chinese, they will serve it to you! My wife and I ordered "hop to ha", which is a deep fried jumbo shrimp dish with a sweet mayo (condensed milk, egg whites and sugar) which is normally poured on top, but we put it on the side so the shrimp doesn't get soggy. Around it are Pecan halves and broccoli. We also ordered Ginto Quant (fried pork chop in a spicy red sauce). They have many different fish options including a fried flounder, or if you want the healthier approach, a steamed flounder where they take all of the meat off the bones for you and serve it that way. Overall, the flavors are right on, and the location is very convenient. Plenty of parking and rarely any wait. This is our new go-to place for quality authentic Cantonese style food. read more

This place is located in busy plaza of Assi market, Smoothie King, Dollar Tree, etc on the busy street of Pleasant Hill. It's a small restaurant. Their menu lists tons of dishes. I've tried Peking duck and shrimp fried rice. The duck is so crazy good- very crispy on the outside and super tender and flavorful on the inside. I recommend it to anyone that loves duck. You can tell lots of love was given to the duck :) The fried rice though was very dry. I've had better elsewhere. Anyhow, I will be back again to try other items. read more

I stopped here after driving around aimlessly and starving. Im in town visiting my sister and craving some good food while she's at work. Stopped in here because I saw the duck hanging in the window. I was NOT disappointed! I got the roast duck over rice (7.99, a total steal) and it was SO flavorful and juicy. The rice was seasoned nicely as well. The customer service wasn't the best, but that could have just been a communication barrier. As long as I can come in and point to what I want, I'll visit every time I'm in town!!!! read more

Cozy little place - reminds me of the old style BBQ places in NYC Chinatown that I love. The BBQ meats were tasty and service was quick. The waitstaff was very attentive and personable. It's too bad that they aren't serving any "kitchen foods" such as chow fun or pan-fried noodles yet. I'm definitely coming back to try those! read more

Ordered the two kind bbq with rice. $9. Duck had good seasoning, but flabby microwaved skin where a nice crunch was missing. The rice was perfect. The bbq pork was also microwaved with beautiful juices running out of the quickly drying meat. A spoonful of cabbage completes the plate. Service was absent, social media was more important. Other tables got soup with the same order as mine, but I did not. Maybe being a haole, gringo, or whatever Mandarin name fits didn't help. Portions of meat were 40% less than expected. Not a good dollar value. Will not return. Brutal competition in the area kills so many restaurants, I expect this one to fail as well. Best BBQ is still supreme in my book at Great Wall. read more

Don't go to this restaurant. If you've been and you've had a great experience, just assume it was a fluke. The restaurant is small and I don't want more people to find out about this ridiculously authentic execution of Cantonese dining right here in Duluth. Don't pay any attention to their affordable prices for duck and BBQ pork by the pound. Pay no heed to their epic duck dish prepared three ways. Ignore the sizzling deliciousness of their hot clay pot casserole dishes. The restaurant is very small. It gets crowded. The staff is very friendly. The food is amazing. Please don't come. Thanks. read more

A weekly must go place! I think this is the best bbq place in town. They even remember my orders every time I go. Wonderful!

This store is quite small but has a good menu with a lot to offer. They have BBQ to noodle soup to rice casseroles. From the dishes that I have tried so far, there isn't much flavor in the dishes offered here. Most of the food taste good but not very good, ok but not the best, it was just alright. I have tried 2 different flavors of the rice casseroles. Both were quite good and were served nicely in a clay bowl where they were cooked in. The ratio of rice to meat was a good amount. However, the both times I've tried this dish, they tasted a little plain and flavorless. They come with a sauce similar to soy sauce which helps with the flavor a little but not enough. The meat has flavor in it but no sauce to mix into the rice. Overall the rice casseroles were pretty good, just a little bland. I've also had the Wonton noodle soup. The wontons had shrimp and I think pork in it. It didn't taste very good. The meat had a rubbery texture and a weird taste that I can't describe, maybe bitter? The noodles were pretty good but nothing special. They taste like the kind of thin egg noodles found in most Asian grocery stores. The overall dish, again, didn't have a lot of favor. Adding more salt and vinegar to taste helps it out. It didn't taste very bad, just not the best. read more

Place is pretty bomb. After being tired of all your typical Chinese restaurants around pleasant hill, we decided to try out this new one. First of all, their duck was a step better than most other Chinese restaurants in the area. Although portion is smaller for their half size, it was considerably good. We also threw in the pork bbq. Now this was definitely better than your Ming's BBQ pork and Great Wall's. We got several other common Chinese food like crispy noodles with seafood. This one taste mediocre nothing special. But the mini fish with tofu hot pot. Oh boy, this was definitely the one that made us want to come back here for next time along with the pork with salted egg yolk. Overall, good hole in the wall Chinese food! read more

Listen, idk if I came at the wrong time but that food tasted like spoiled booty, and quite frankly I am disappointed because I spent 45 minutes in my car driving to get some Hong Kong wonton soup and the Peking duck read more

Coming from a Cantonese family background, I am writing this review from that perspective rather than that of my nationality: American. It was only natural that my family found out about this hidden gem through word of mouth and local Asian newspapers. Growing up in the suburbs of metro Atlanta, my family and I have tried a plethora of Asian BBQ places. I am glad to say that this blew the rest out of the water. As with most Asian cuisine, it's either a hit or a miss. It just so happens that the style of cuisine that they offer matches with mine. First and foremost, the place is a BBQ place. Basically Cantonese street food. Curiously, though, they sell out of their BBQ very fast. Normally by dinner time, the roasted pork, BBQ pork, and soy sauce chicken are out of stock. One would think that the owners, former Flushing NYC natives (the epitome of Chinatowns), would understand stock. Yet, these shortages are likely due to the quality of meats which surpassed all my expectations, even reminding me of the meats in China. Every dish beyond the meats that I have tried so far has been off the charts. The rice casseroles are all exceptionally good, especially when compared to similar restaurants in the area. In addition, the waiters suggest a new favorite every time, whether it is a new noodle dish, fish stir fry, or anything in between. And the prices, are all reasonable. So from a Cantonese background, there's no doubt in my mind that this place is 5/5. I'm glad the family decided to take their talents down here. From an American perspective, maybe not so much. The outside kitchen with the BBQ nearly takes up 1/4 of the whole dining room. The constant conversations amongst the staff and families are all symbolic of Chinese cuisine but are far cries from American dining, where even most burger joints have dimmed lights. read more

The place is a bit small compared to other Chinese BBQ places like Mings, but their food is pretty good. They serve clay pot rice, congee, bbq meat (duck, chicken, pork), and noodle soups. We got the house special preserved meat over rice, spare rib with black bean over rice, and half a duck. Everything was pretty flavorful. Would come back again. read more

I went to get takeout on a weekday. The menu was really small. I got a little bit of honey barbecue pork and napa cabbage on a lot of rice. My car's been flyered by them twice but the photos don't match. Unless you're just getting the pork and duck without a meal, I'd go elsewhere. read more

My family and I have tried several Asian BBQ places around the Atlanta metro area and the quality of their food have gone downhill over the years. When we heard about this new BBQ place, we thought we'll give it a try. We were not disappointed. We ordered a nice sampling of their meats. We ordered the ginger chicken, crispy pork, roasted duck, and char siu. Each one was very flavorful, juicy, and tender. The skin on the crispy pork was crunchy and tasty. My parents are from China and they have tried authentic Chinese BBQ before. They said their meats were one of the best ones that they have eaten. The prices are also reasonable compared to the other BBQ places. Whole duck costs $22.99, crispy pork costs $10.50/lb, whole ginger chicken costs $17.49, and char siu costs $9.99/lb. This will probably be our new favorite place the buy Asian BBQ in ATL. We will be back. read more

2.5 star max. Crispy pork and the roast duck were ok. The bbq pork was a joke! I called the waiter/chopper over and asked, is this really char siu? Zero color or honey glazed. The hk style wonton noodles soup was ok, the noodles were still in a net inside the bowl. Seriously, you can't cook it a little at least to loosen it up a bit. We were so looking forward to this below avg meal. read more
