    Small on the outside, small on the inside. Big on taste and the price is perfect. Service is what would be expected when the people show up. But really they are fairly quick and I recommend the sushi

    Teriyaki Chicken & Shrimp

    First time here I ordered online pick up store. The service was amazing . Order was already ready when I got there still hot fresh Delicious I order the chicken and shrimp plate 10/10 and the California roll it goes well with the yum yum sauce most definitely will come back again and for the price it was good portion food.

    Sashimi poke bowl with spicy mayo sauce
    Shandicefaye ..

    This poke bowl was so full of flavor. It was very yummy and fresh. I noticed a lot of people getting takeout. You can dine in as well. It's a very small atmosphere inside but comfortable. I will definitely be back.

    This local gem is amazing. Walked In and placed our order it was ready within 15 minutes. Freshest fish! Ready to go back!

    Teriyaki Salmon Bento and Shrimp Tempura Bento
    Natalie G.

    Wow! This place is a gem! The food is very reasonably priced and also delicious. We got the teriyaki salmon bento and my partner got the shrimp tempura bento. It took about 20 minutes to be prepared, which is super quick for a Friday night and we ordered to-go. Definitely would recommend!

    White chicken bento box

    I ordered a white chicken Bento box, and it was delicious! The ginger salad dressing was new to me, and I greatly enjoyed it. The service was excellent! This was my first visit, and I will return when I'm in the area.

    So so...I didn't feel comfortable eating their food. Maybe not fully clean behind the messy glass. Just felt uneasy.

    I'm always looking for a good spot for me and my baby boy to try and this one was a A-1 pick... I…read morehave to pat myself on the back for this one(lol). We where greeted and seated immediately, it wasn't crowded at all... weekday visits are always recommended, if you ask me. It was really cute, not to big or small. There is a bar style area. The seating was ok, the setup is booth style seating around the wall and single seating. The staff... though young they where all professional, respectful, and very attentive to us the customers. Now we can get into the real star of this... review, the food! Everything was delicious, no complaints at all!!! Appetizers- Crab Rangoon and Yum-Yum Shrimp Drinks- water and a Peach Bubble Tea tea Ramen bowls- Kimchi Seafood Heaven and Garlic Seafood Ramen Go, go, go, if you're a Ramen lover, who loves good customer service. Only problem or complaint I can have(but not really) is, there was a cotton candy making machine, that wasn't working(sad face), I was wanting and ready for some footage(lol) and cotton candy.

    Before I dive in, I want to point out that the ratings of this place on Google are heavily skewed…read moreas they incentivize 5-star ratings in exchange for free food (see photos). As such, the Yelp reviews are more accurate. PaoPao is a casual eatery that has both ramen selections alongside bubble tea. The space inside is nice but immediately we noted that there wasn't much privacy between tables and we could hear everyone else's conversations. I ordered the Szechuan Tofu Hot Pot. While spicy, it wasn't all too flavorful in terms of all of the ingredients in it. The price also felt a bit high as well. My partner echoed that sentiment when it came to her Black & White Tonkotsu. When we tried the boba, we enjoyed the flavor of the tea. We were immediately met with disappointment however when the actual boba was tasteless. Good texture, but quite literally tasteless. Would we come again? It certainly wouldn't be on the forefront of our minds. However with cold weather and a lack of other ramen options nearby, we may give it a shot down the road. Though I certainly feel like making the trip to Jinya would be better time spent.

    This restaurant is really the best kept secret in Atlanta!…read more My family visited here this week for the first time since around 2014 and, despite our fears that it wouldn't live up to the great experience we had then, they EXCEEDED our expectations. We ordered so much and everything was delicious - nothing below an 8/10 in my opinion. We ordered the seafood spring rolls (8/10), crab benigets (8/10 with a special note of originality), and the shrimp appetizer (10/10). Spring rolls- very crispy and flaky, had the "sea floor" variety of seafood inside, flavorful 3 sauces to go with it Crab beignets- a slightly cheesy and airy beignet with a genius crab dip blend. The whole table was surprised on how good it was. Shrimp appetizer- the best "bang bang" shrimp I've had. Shrimps are very large and has a nice fruit salsa to go with. Everyone at the table loved their entrees but I can only truly speak for the ones I tried. Seafood Curry- I will NEVER eat curry anywhere else! I LOVEEEEE THIS CURRY! All the seafood is so fresh, the curry is so flavorful that I literally slurped the rest off my plate. There was also such a variety of veggies in there that were also very fresh and firm (not soggy). For the price especially, you get sooooo much and with such a thoughtful recipe. According to our waitress, it's the only recipe that hasn't changed since the restaurant opened in 2012! Fried chicken - I didn't try the chicken itself, but I did try the Mac and cheese and greens that came with it. Let me tell you, I am very picky about Mac and cheese and this rivals the best Mac and cheese I've had in Atlanta (toast on Lenox)! The greens were also fantastic and flavorful, but a little on the sweet side if that's what your preference is. For dessert, all 4 of us shared one slice of the suspension cake and couldn't even finish it! It was ginormous (literally the size of your head). I won't even go into details- just order it! The ambiance is so intimate and unique- not feeling like an "uptight" boujie restaurant, but curated and thoughtful. They have very nice seating outdoor that is enclosed as well as a beautiful bar area. Lastly, the service is fantastic. I genuinely can't recall my waitresses name, but they speak so highly of the head chef (Calvin) and most have worked there 8+ years, so it really feels like home. I write this review with hesitance because I want this place to remain a secret, but how could I not brag! Book the reservation!

    My husband and I were in Atlanta attending a conference and doing some research when we came across…read morePoor Calvin's online. We intentionally avoided reading reviews because we wanted to form our own opinion, and we're so glad we did. From the moment we arrived, we were welcomed warmly by the host, which immediately set the tone for a great dining experience. Once seated, our waiter was attentive, personable, knowledgeable, and genuinely seemed to care that we enjoyed our meal. The food was outstanding, the drinks were excellent. Poor Calvin's delivered from start to finish. If you're visiting Atlanta or you're a local looking for a restaurant that combines exceptional food with outstanding hospitality, Poor Calvin's is well worth the visit. We left with absolutely no complaints and look forward to returning the next time we're in Atlanta.

What I found instead felt like a small echo of what the place used to be. The food has shrunk in size while the prices have climbed, which makes the whole experience feel out of balance. I ordered the bao because it used to be the star of the show for me. I still remember the way they were fried on one side before, with that golden crisp that added texture and soul to every bite. This time the bao arrived soft and much smaller than I remembered. The flavor was fine, but the magic was missing. It felt like the memory of a painting that has faded over time. I do want to say that the staff were kind and welcoming. They suggested a hibachi special, which I was not interested in, but they made the attempt to guide my order. Their warmth was the best part of the visit. I left with a sense of nostalgia for what used to be. Maybe the menu has evolved or costs have changed, but the experience simply did not match the picture I carried with me. I hope the place finds its rhythm again, because it once held a special spot in my rotation.

The restaurant is beautiful, red velvet curtains, baroque flowered wallpaper. The service was excellent. They have a very nice wine, cocktail, and mocktail list. I had the purple rain, light and bubbly. My friend enjoyed her gingery King's Ransom. The menu is Chinese and Asian fusion, and a short list of sushi. Chinese is always meant to be shared. We had the miso truffle salmon and each of the steam buns to start. I thought the salmon was very good, I do not normally like capers, but liked the way they prepared them. The katsu was probably the best of the buns, nicely crispy. The tofu was good a well, with a nice kick, the young one in our group found it too spicy. I would not order the short rib again, it was fine, but I've had much better short rib. We then had the chicken satay, roti canai, and the miso cod. The chicken satay had good flavor, and paired well with the peanut sauce and pickles. I did find it a bit too fatty. The miso cod was perfectly cooked, and the flavor was just right. Note that it is a very small portion. The best dish was the roti, a yellow curry with chicken and veggies with two flaky peice of roti. So good. The star of the meal though was the mango sticky rice, with sorbet and small bits of mochi. This is one of the best versions I've ever had. Do not miss this dessert! The issue I had with our visit is we, a group of three, were seated by the door, which was also near the kitchen door. The seating felt cramped, and every few minutes one of the doors was slamming, which made it a less pleasant experience. There were also several other tables open that we could have been seated at instead.
