    I had heard from friends that Taste of China offers Fujian-style home cooking that suits Fujian tastes, so we decided to give it a try for my mom's birthday on Sunday. We started with the Fuqi Feipian, which was on the salty side but otherwise pretty standard. The Seafood Shark Fin Soup was surprisingly bland, as if no salt had been added. We had to add red vinegar just to bring out some flavor, and it could have used more white pepper and seasoning overall. Next was the stir-fried squid with vegetables (I forgot the exact name). It included scallions, taro strips, and red peppers, but the taste was fairly average. The sweet and sour pork (Lychee Pork) was close to the Fujian-style flavor I'm familiar with, though the sauce was a bit light and not as tangy or sweet as expected. We also ordered the seafood fried rice noodles, which were very mild in flavor and lacked wok hei. It felt under-seasoned, almost like the seasoning was forgotten again. One standout dish was the red fermented rice pork intestines with snow peas, a classic Fujian specialty. The red fermented rice flavor really came through, and this dish was definitely worth supporting. The crispy roast duck was another highlight--crispy skin, juicy meat, and served with steamed pancakes, shredded cucumber, scallions, and sweet bean sauce. Very satisfying in every bite. The restaurant also offered complimentary orange slices at the end, which was a nice touch. Portions were generous, prices were reasonable, and overall it was a fairly filling meal. If you enjoy Fujian-style cuisine, it's worth giving this place a try.

    Went yesterday afternoon for late lunch. Ordered 4 dishes to share - Braised Pork Belly, Hong Kong style lobster, Szechuan Chicken, & Beef and Vermicelli in hot pot. The portion sizes are big so we had leftovers to take home. Favorites were the lobster and chicken because they were so flavorful. The beef and vermicelli was okay not what we were expecting. The braised pork belly was too salty. Overall decent food and would come back just for lobster and to try other dishes.

    This place is pretty tasty and it's a little crowded when they're packed because the place has a lot more tables than it has space for I feel? But it's rare it's 100% packed, plus they do take reservations if you call. Here are some of my recommendations: Cold Mixed Bamboo Salad We'll start with an easy one. A refreshing one! This dish is a refreshing dish - made with bamboo shoots, black beans, dried red peppers and more! This is one of my favorites - the bamboo shoots are very tender and there's a slight crunchiness to it! Eggplant with Chicken and Salted Fish in Hot Pot This dish is also often times called Eggplant Clay Pot in a lot of Cantonese restaurants - it's one of my favorite dishes. It's super flavorful! The only thing is it's a little more salty here than at other restaurants I've been to. But if you don't mind - go on ahead - the flavor is great! Sliced Beef in Spicy Chili Oil One of my favorite dishes ever is this Sichuan dish - there's Sliced Beef in Spicy Chili Oil or Sliced Fish in Spicy Chili Oil! We went with the beef this time. String Bean with Minced Pork A traditional Chinese dish is this veggie side dish - string/green beans with minced pork. They did ask us if we were okay with the minced pork which made me feel like if we said no, they could make customizations btw. Roasted Crispy Duck (Half) You can order this as a WHOLE roast duck also - however, I went with just my mom and we were definitely not even going to finish the half duck, so that's what we went with.

    Tucked away in the corner of a not super well lit plaza located away from the main thoroughfare of Pleasant Hill Road, it's really easy to drive by and completely miss this restaurant. However, if you do manage to find it, they actually serve up some pretty good eats. The overall ambiance of the restaurant is actually better than how it looks on the outside. Large family style tables perfect for sharing a meal. I decided to order some of their more unique menu items like the Pumpkin in Salted Egg and the Mountain Yam and Mushroom Clay Pot. Both were excellent dishes. The fried pumpkin was crispy on the outside with that salty egg dusted on top while the inside was soft and fluffy. The mountain yam and mushrooms had excellent spice and is excellent with white rice. However, just know that like many Chinese restaurants, service is definitely not a strong suit. I went around 8pm and there was maybe one other table in the restaurant. But service was incredibly slow and dishes didn't start getting to our table until almost 40 minutes after ordering. So I guess if you have time to burn, you won't mind being here at all. But overall, it's still a pretty good restaurant. Definitely wouldn't mind coming back to try more items. Just make sure you have a lot of time on your hands haha.

    If you don't know, good, authentic Chinese food will carry a 3-star rating. If you're unfamiliar with this, drop me a line. Taste of China weighs in at 3.8. It's phenomenal! This place is legit the best Chinese food I've ever had. I think it edges out Canton Cooks in my list of favorites -- which is impressively hard to do. I won't bother carrying you through all of the dishes. There wasn't anything I tried that I didn't think was great -- ranging from authentic to American Chinese. All so good. I will add that the jajangmyeon here is the best I've had. You know when you get the kind with running brown-colored sauce? That is not what is happening here. It was straight-up amazing. Be prepared for family-style dining here. Most of the tables are round with a lazy Susan in the middle for easy access.

    Taste of China was a random treasure find when the husband and I were looking for a place to grab dinner while visiting Spaland. The restaurant sits in the same quiet complex with a handful of other Asian restaurants, and I do want to emphasize the word 'quiet'. Most of the eateries here - Taste of China included - have their windows layered with a reflective, one-way sheen and there are no loud decorations or banners that try to lure hungry passersby through the door. Still, we ventured in, a fateful choice that led to a most delightful dinner. Before we even ordered, our waitress brought two small bowls of free apps - deep fried and salted peanuts, along with some pickled radish. As we munched happily through these bowls, we poked around the menu a little blindly, jabbing a hopeful finger to our waitress at things that looked promising. In the end, we settled on the mapo tofu and sizzling black pepper beef. The mapo tofu was a satisfyingly spicy and saucy, rich with soft tofu cubes and ground pork and finishing with the telltale numbing sensation of Szechuan peppercorns. It was a wonderful counterpoint to the slightly sweet and unctuous sizzling beef, which was a revelation of an entree. It arrived on a hot cast iron platter, with beef pieces so tender that our teeth sank effortlessly into them. Every table's order is accompanied by a generous order of rice that we didn't think we would finish, but by the end of the meal, there wasn't a single grain left. Service throughout our meal was prompt and efficient without any kind of hovering. We were seated at one of few small tables in the restaurant, because most of the interior is dedicated to larger round tables with lazy Susans, presumably for family dinner affairs. I won't deign to pretend expertise on Chinese cuisine, but I know when my taste buds are happy, and they were certainly dancing with delight after our chance meal here. Moral of the story - sometimes it pays to take a chance on the unassuming hole-in-the-walls.

    I'm always a little hesitant to try restaurants with the word "China" in it. But obviously I'm a little biased (iykyk). But we decided to take a chance since Jusgo food court was closed on Chinese New Year and our next option was Taste of China. And it's become our Chinese family style meal of choice over the past year. I've been many times now and can safely say it's a solid Chinese restaurant in Atlanta, given our limited legit options. Crab & Fish Maw soup is a must. Don't be deterred by what "maw" is. If you're Chinese, you drink up that delicacy and don't think twice. Peking Duck is also a must. You can order duck two ways - Peking Duck with steamed buns or crispy roast duck (similar to what you would get at a Chinese BBQ storefront). I wish you could order a half order of Peking Duck in the same way as a half order of crispy roast duck, but it's worth ordering even with a smaller group - take the rest home as leftovers! I recently also was a huge fan of the sautéed clams in black bean sauce. Not a single grain of sand was to be found when biting into each piece of meat, which is a definite no-no for the rest of the platter when it's usually found. And the flavors were on point. Pro tip: if it's your birthday, let them know and they will bring you complimentary peach buns (red bean filling)! There are so many other dishes to choose from and the menu has gorgeous pictures to help you choose what you're looking for. Service is lackluster. I think the servers are a bit lazy and there aren't enough servers on the weekends. I've gotten pretty rude attitudes and responses from various servers, which was embarrassing in front of my parents. Definitely don't recommend this restaurant for their hospitality, that's for sure. I also don't recommend a meal here if you're in a rush or looking for a quick bite, especially on a weekend. There are usually multiple bigger groups here on the weekend and that can cause the kitchen to get super backed up, since they seem to cook in a first in, first out order. Overall, Taste of China is my go-to Chinese family style dinner restaurant in Duluth, particularly for Peking Duck.

    Taste of china .. or you should call it taste of money ????? I would give zero star if I could . Maybe I didn't work hard enough ???? I can never imagine a sour cabbage fish can cost $90 .... lol what ? And the owner said because I look good so he gave me $10 off ?????? He said the fish is $40 / pounds Ewwww like what is this fish made of gold ? Are you being serious ? I didn't ask price because at first I didn't consider the price is a big deal they didn't mark the price in the menu or else I Would never order a ' gold fish ' like this . Today I'm totally disappointed because I only get 2 dish and it's $165 in total , and also the fish is plain and no flavor at all . I will never come back at all

    After my first visit I think this is the best Chinese restaurant in town. It is a bit pricey $20+/entree but it's meant to be family style portions so bring friends/friends with you! The duck chin was life changing and I LOVED the spicy garlic pork 鱼香肉丝.

    Taste of China was amazing! Every time I go, the food is so, so good! I definitely recommend the Mapo Tofu and Fried Shrimp with Spicy Garlic Sauce. The service was great. They always recommend the Peking Duck, but I wouldn't say it is worth the price. The meals are a great size and price for sharing, plus free parking!

    My wife and I were craving Szechuan chicken for lunch, and since she wanted to try a new matcha tea…read morespot in Duluth, we decided to turn it into a little date day. We found a restaurant not far from the matcha shop. It felt more like a Chinese takeout spot than a traditional sit-down restaurant, so there wasn't much to speak of in terms of decor. We decided to share everything we ordered. The first dish we tried was the Szechuan noodles. The flavor was excellent, but unfortunately, the dish arrived only lukewarm, as it appeared to have been sitting for a while before being brought to the table. Next, we ordered soup dumplings, but the restaurant accidentally brought out pan-seared dumplings instead. Thankfully, they let us keep them while they prepared our original order. The pan-seared dumplings were actually very good--piping hot and full of flavor. When the soup dumplings finally arrived, they were decent but didn't quite live up to the pan-seared version and lacked the same level of flavor. Finally, our Szechuan chicken arrived. It was hot, fresh, and delicious. The chicken was crispy with a great spice profile that delivered the classic Szechuan kick without being overwhelming. It was served with fried rice, which was fine but nothing particularly memorable. Overall, the experience was good but not exceptional. The food had some strong points, especially the Szechuan chicken and pan-seared dumplings, but the restaurant ultimately felt more like a solid Chinese takeout spot than a destination dining experience.

We were greeted quickly at both the door and table. For a dumpling house, there weren't that many options for dumplings. We order two types of dumplings, a noodle dish and an entree on recommendation of the staff. The pork soup dumplings were very soupy on the inside and had a good flavor. The pan fried bao dumplings were alright but morning to write home about; I thought the bun to filling ratio was good for a bao though. For noodles we got the house rice noodles. I typically don't order this but I thought it was really well done with a good ratio of ingredients and flavor. Lastly we ordered the sales egg pork ribs. They were cut to bite size pieces but that's deceptive since they were bone in. Some pieces were all bone and some all meat. While the flavor was good, some might call it dry and the cut made it difficult to eat. While the seasoning for all the dishes were flavorful, I thought the salt was a little heavy.
