Ponko Chicken

The staff is so very sweet. The food is always was hot and fresh and packaged with care - which is a biggie for us! We have tried lots on the menu, but the staples at our house is the following: Grandma BBQ Pork Tossed Noodle Bowl ($15.95) Peanut Satay Chicken Skewers ($10.95) Honey Butter Shrimp ($25.95) Chinese Broccoli ($7.95) The grandma noodle bowl is such a great value and it has some of everything. It is honestly quite perfect. I love the fried egg (though you have to add salt). The bbq pork, the bok choy, the bean sprouts, and those fried wontons. It just doesn't get better than that! If you get it to go - make sure you stir the noodles because the sauce settles on the bottom. I don't generally like satay chicken, but this one is fried and so perfect, I don't even use the sauce it comes with though it is tasty. The chicken by itself is so fragrant and it is crisp yet juicy! 4 skewers is seldomly enough! I'd like to swim in the green sauce the shrimp comes with! The crispy shrimp dipped in the sweet sauce is a match made in heaven. I am always a little disgruntled I have to share. Ah the Chinese broccoli is crunch and savory and just so delicious. And hello extra fiber! The bok choy in the noodle bowl doesn't come seasoned, but this Chinese broccoli will knock your socks off! We have also tried the fried rice, the rendang beef (VERY spicy), the braised beef, calamari, the dumplings, and the wonton soup. They have the absolute BEST wonton soup! It's the best I've had anywhere! The broth is so flavorful and the wontons are perfect and plentiful. I am not generally a soup person, but it is divine! We had this for dinner tonight and I'm already looking forward to the leftovers tomorrow!

I had a really nice lunch this afternoon at The Asian Kitchen. There are many wonderful things to…read morereport about this little place, keeping in mind that this was my first and only visit. The restaurant has an intimate feel. Our waitress couldn't have been better. She was attentive, but gave us plenty of time to chat uninterrupted. The music was quiet enough that we could hear each other using our normal voices. The lighting was soft and not at all glaring. The parking was plentiful (Kroger is in the same parking lot). Their lunch special is very reasonable. I had the chicken kung pow with a delicious won ton soup and ice tea. The bill was about $15, so with a tip, lunch was still under $20. The waitress asked me what level of heat I wanted. I appreciate that because people often assume older people prefer very little heat and that is not true of me! The Kung Pow was delicious and plentiful. I could not eat it all. The vegetables were cooked "tender crisp" and the chicken was super tender. I will definitely be back to try other things on the menu.

The dining room is always quaint and clean. I'm losing a star though on the fact that they are blaming getting rid of alcoholic beverages on tariffs. This is the first I have ever heard of a restaraunt doing it, but if you are afraid of having to raise or change pricing the beverage menu can be seperate from the food menu. Or limit the number of imports you have on the menu. It would seem better to say "we can't sell Ichiban or Sopporro anymore because of tariffs" rather than saying "tariffs bad, alcohol bad". i would rather have the choice to pay a dollar or two more than not at all.

The server was a little rude when we entered and didn't talk much she just made hand gestures and basically slammed some menus in front of us. We ordered quite a bunch. Bao buns, teriyaki bowls, sushi and a Thai tea. Everything came out at different times and everything was pretty delicious. Overall the food was very good but service definitely could have been better. I'd come back again but it would mostly be if I couldn't anything else in the area.

When I pulled up to this spot, I wasn't really expecting much and for sure when I pulled up, I…read moredefinitely judged this book by it's cover. Tucked in a small plaza sandwiched between a orthodontists office and a salon is this little tiny joint off Webb Bridge road off Kimball Bridge in Alpharetta. So when you walk into the place, it's got the vibe of a night market where you're sitting in the street of Hong Kong or Beijing eating local fare. The decor reflects that the art of the place gives it that night market feeling. There isn't much in terms of service as it's a small operation but that's all you really need is a front of house greeter/host and someone to deliver the food and someone to cook it and Haochi has it! Now let's talk food... I had gotten their char sui pork bao (they named it chashu like the Japanese pork used in Tonkatsu ramen), Taiwanese fried chicken, and the HongKong wonton noodle soup... and let me tell you! It's all great! The Taiwanese fried chicken is crispy yet the chicken is so juicy and flavorful. Seasoned beautifully with a hint of that Chinese 5 spice in the batter recipe and served popcorn style with a sweet and sour dipping sauce makes for a very good starter The bao bun is light. Not much of a fan of the char sui pork as it was cut bologne thin yet held almost no flavor and the cucumber used was a bit off putting so wasn't a fan of the bao, at least not the chashu version. The HongKong wonton Noodle soup is amazing!!! The broth was savory, rich, yet seeing that the base of the broth is wonton soup broth, it was also light and super clean and deeply flavorful. Maybe it's the MSG but that's an Asian staple seasoning. They did give large chunks of roast pork and about 4 shumai dumplings in the broth. The noodles were thin and cooked to perfection. What set this right even more so was the addition of chili oil. Bummed they didn't have Chinese black vinegar but I think that's just me being snobby. Overall, I am quite satisfied with my experience at Haochi and it's definitely fusion but not in the way that it satisfies the western taste as there is still a prominent nod to the Chinese and South East Asian flavors. Worth hitting up for a lunch spot or a hang with friends.

We've been loyal customers of this Ponko Chicken location for a while and have always had great experiences, but our visit today was incredibly disappointing. The quality has really gone downhill. My main concern is that the staff knowingly served us burnt chicken. The strips were visibly black and smelled burnt when they were brought out - there's no way they didn't notice. It's really disturbing to think they would serve food in that condition. To make matters worse, when I called to speak with a manager on duty about this issue, I was told to call back tomorrow. That's completely unacceptable customer service. We're very disappointed and hope the management addresses these issues, especially the quality control in the kitchen and the way customer concerns are handled. read more

The sushi roll was delicious. Imitation crab, but I didn't mind and they stated that on the menu.

I was told NO. We arrived and were seated. The waiter rushed to get order. I order vegetables fried rice without their seasonable vegetables ( one would think you would still get the soup and salad).

The sauce was everywhere. As soon as the chef moved his cart they sent in the clean up crew before we could even take the first bite of our food. I asked for napkins to clean up the sauce rather than using their nicely rolled for the next day silverware and again it was slammed. The food was average. The ambiance was hostile. The service was fast and the server did not know that two things we asked about were never offered they are just on the menu I guess to take up space. If they do not want to serve people past 8 pm then they should not take reservations past 7:30. Gone was the memory of fun, that volcano onion and just any type of service than what we received. Especially for the amount of money you pay and as soon as it's cooked a crew is trying to sweep under you. Oddly enough they stand around and wait to pounce the moment the chef is done or they think you have dropped your fork. I think you would have a better time and money well spent at another Hibachi restaurant. Otherwise roll the dice and best of luck to you.
