    sweet and spicy curry

    this is sweet like dessert. seriously. like i have a serious sweet tooth but this genuinely tastes like a spiced custard. service was good tho

    DO NOT EAT HERE! This is my final sign to stop eating out for lunch. Literally, I have been striking out all week. I spent $23! For a bowl of rice, probably equivalent to 10 cents of what they paid for it, meant to be fried rice which I asked for, it was white rice, and less than a middle finger, exactly what Tin Drum gave me, amount of chicken. It was supposed to be sesame chicken, no sesame at all. I paid so much for nothing. I'm really upset and need a refund. Food worth half what I paid. Now, the service, or lack there of. This place is so cheap, they charge for everything and give nothing. I wanted a drink, $3.25. I want a side of sauce that they could have given on the side? $2. For it to not even be good food, they have lost it. FYI, Yelp needs to not partner or offer codes for this place because I checked in, it said free crab cheese roll. They did not honor it. I don't think I have ever been somewhere so cheap they did honor a Yelp check in promotion. The crab roll was as small as your thumb, and not even good, because I paid for one. I already spent $23, you refuse to honor that a $2 nasty flat crab roll? New low. This eatery, because places like this need to be called what they are, a place to eat. They're not even on par to be referred to as restaurants, is trash. No exaggeration. The entire staff is trash. The dude with the dreads, the fake manager with the braids, the owners relatives in the back cooking TV dinner food for over $20 a pop, they are all awful and corrupt and have such nasty, don't care, attitudes. I remember Tin Drum opening at perimeter years ago. It was better service and quality. I'm mad at myself for giving them my money. Never again. I will be requesting a for a refund. I didn't finish the food. Do not ever eat here. Go hungry first. They price gouge and wouldn't give away a prayer even though it's free. Horrible service. I know customer service is dead especially at these eateries, but this is a new level. Just nasty. Negative stars for this one.

    First time at this location. I ordered online, and picked up my order inside. I only ordered the firercracker cauliflower, because I've been craving it soooo bad and saw that they had it! I will say, although I ordered online, I did have to wait an extra 5mins before my food was ready. Other than that all was well. Customer service was good for a busy BUSY Friday evening. It seemed clean inside. it was sooo busy, but the workers got the orders out the best that they could. The cauliflower was 9/10 so good and spicy, but really really good. I wasn't even tripping that it wasn't chicken. lol. I recooked trying it!

    The food was good and it was hot and fresh! The service was really good. They were very helpful! The restaurant was very clean. I will definitely go back!

    Japanese Teriyaki

    Nice customer service as I was greeted promptly. My Japanese Chicken Teriyaki was cooked fresh to order and it was brought to my table in less than 10 minutes. This was my first time having the Japanese version of this dish. Very flavorful but next time I'll add shrimp! Nice relaxing ambiance and the music wasn't bad. I'd also like to commend the staff for the cleanliness.

    Two sides of rice equal one full box? Rip off

    Two order of white rice and the boxes are over halfway empty. That's absolutely ridiculous.

    It was sooo goood! Some of the best Asian food I've had in GA. It's was quick to get out and the food was all fresh. The cashier was patient and told us everything we needed to know, the place was soo beautiful as well, very clean and it smelt just like food!

Rebel Tea House and the shops on the block got it right with the free two-hour parking deck, which honestly was the first thing that drew me in. The space itself is boutique, quaint, clean, and smells amazing, with beautiful Chinese-inspired decor. I'm no stranger to bubble tea or fruit teas, but it was my first time here and I wanted to try something different. The woman at the register was incredibly helpful. After I mentioned that I don't like drinks that are overly sweet, she explained the sweetness levels and recommended a tea that ended up being perfect. I stayed for a couple of hours working on my computer and watched the place gradually fill up during the lunch rush. I loved the mix of people coming through -- parents with babies and strollers, people working quietly on laptops, friends playing Uno and Connect Four, and locals just stopping in for their usual tea. It felt welcoming. Also worth mentioning, the bathroom was spotless and fully stocked, which always says a lot to me about a business. Overall, it was just a really pleasant experience from start to finish, and I'll definitely be back.

The flavors aren't so intense as to feel like you're drinking pure [insert ingredient] concentrate, but strong enough to taste everything. The interior is really nice, with lanterns, fairy lights, flowers painted on the wall, a mural on the counter, artificial flowers hanging beautifully in the seating area and in the bathroom (bathroom not pictured). The seating is comfortable and there is good lighting. There are board games you can play and merchandise you can buy, as well. The employees are helpful and friendly. They were able to help me with nutrition information, telling me how much of each sugary ingredient so I could figure out how much insulin I needed. The owner also donates some of their profits and stuffed animals to the charity my sibling receives support from. I had a great experience from ordering to leaving, and I will be back

I ordered the Peking Duck Buns (3) & a Mango Passion Fruit Jasmine Green Tea, which was not full at all (see pic). In all, customer service leaves much to be desire.

Everything came out pretty fast, but we did for the dumplings to cook so that took awhile. We really enjoyed the noodles and I personally enjoyed the dumplings more than the siu mai. Noodles were topped with tons of veggies too! Soup dumpling wrapper was a little too thick but the soup inside was flavorful. The fried dough tasted just like a less sweeter version of a donut. I can never leave without having a few sesame balls as they've been my favorite!

I knew finding a replacement would be hard, but I didn't expect it to be this depressing. The vibe is "Neon Fever Dream." The layout is sloppy and dominated by a long, confusing row of identical claw machines. I ordered to-go, and while the food was sitting there when I arrived, I never received a text or email notification letting me know my food was ready. The food earned two stars solely because the fish tasted fresh and was technically edible. Had I spit it out, it would've been a one-star--but I was hungry enough to commit. The execution, however, was a disaster: The "Spicy Tuna" Fail: Instead of the standard minced spicy tuna, I got giant chunks of fish slathered in sauce. The Ratio: Halfway through, the tuna vanished, and I was just eating a very expensive cylinder of plain rice. The Sauce Situation: They put the sauces in side containers instead of inside the burrito. Maybe that's on me for not specifying, but in the sushi burrito world, "sauce on the side" is definitely not the standard. I make my own sushi at home because it's cheaper and usually better, but I struggle to source quality tuna. Looks like I'll be attempting to make my own sushi burritos at home for now, until Poke Burri comes back.

    Wow! This restaurant offers a wide range of scrumptious Asian foods…read more The menu is expansive and features Vietnamese, Thai and other Southeast Asian dishes. We stopped in as a group of three. All of us tried variants of Pho --- all excellent. We also tried fresh Spring and Fried rolls --- very tasty. This is first Vietnamese restaurant I've ever visited that does not skimp on the slices of fresh beef in Pho. All the ingredients are remarkably fresh and tasty. If you visit in the winter months and get cold easily, sit in the booths. During our visit, overhead air ducts were pushing out cold air on the chairs and tables situated in the center of the restaurant and it became uncomfortable for us after sitting for more than 30 minutes.

The service was also okay; the server took my order and came by after the meal to take up the dishes. The broth doesn't necessarily taste like pho, but it still retained the lightness of the soup. It was also very salty. The ambiance was very nice. In theory, this would be a great place to have a quiet and relaxing lunch. The prices at this restaurant is actually pretty cheap in comparison to other restaurants I've been to so that is a plus! Overall, I wouldn't come here again for pho. I haven't tried any of their other dishes, so I can't speak on that, but if you want pho, I'd look elsewhere.
