I had a long layover and decided to venture in this restaurant from the MARTA. What a cozy, welcoming and delicious spot! Service was pristine. The vibes were chill for a 3pm spot but everything came out fresh, fast and delicious.

This place is so yum!! The flavors are on point!! I’m vegetarian & they have plenty of options for me.

I ordered delivery from here because my usual spot (Big Boss) is now closed on Sundays. I will not be ordering from here again for multiple reasons.
1. Everything is way overpriced and the proteins are small. 2. They are incredibly stingy. On top of the portions being extremely small, they didn’t even include the normal condiments or chopsticks you’ll receive when you order Chinese takeout. The hot & sour soup was miniscule and they only included about 5 small fried wonton pieces on the side. The fried eggplant had about 8 pieces of eggplant for a $15 asking price. 3. I called to add a drink to my order because it was not an option on the app, and they asked for my card information over the phone. I’ve worked in restaurants for 20 years and if a customer called to add a drink to a nearly $100 order I would have just given it to them. 4. Items were missing from my order. I ordered crispy chicken with orange sauce. I received the chicken (which was overcooked) but no orange sauce. 5. Last but most importantly not least, I was not impressed with the flavors. The hot and sour soup was sweet - weird. The chicken was overcooked. The fried rice was literally just rice - no onions, carrots, peas, nothing.
I know this is a newer restaurant and they’re still trying to work out the kinks, but in a neighborhood that already has plenty of great Chinese options, you’d do better off dining or ordering elsewhere.

Cool hot Chinese food place downtown. Great cocktails! They have limited seating. But a great experience for the palate!
Watch out for their rest room locks they don’t lock to well :)

New to Atlanta area and wanted to try something well rated. Google was fairly spot on with the ratings.
We got plenty of food because we wanted a variety. To start we had fried dumplings which were fantastic and sweet a good stage. For the main course we ordered too much and got an order of chicken lo mein, chonchqing chicken, and crispy beef. The lomein and chicken were great, the chicken was a nice stew with bone in chicken and a bit of a spice. The lo mein was surprisingly good (normal it's generic but this was very well done). The beef was a bit bland for us and just tasted fried. Service throughout the entire meal was great and prompt (shoutout to john). We would come back again in the future.

Kind of a weird atmosphere, but the service was good. Food was average, nothing to write home about. Worth it if you’re already in the area, probably not worth a drive.

John was an excellent server.
Great good, great atmosphere

I order more food, but not give me any Chopsticks, fork, spoon. Should I eat with my hands?

I have been to this restaurant twice now. I will start by saying the food is delicious. Everything I have ordered has been great. This restaurant really struggles with their customer service. The first time I went , I was double charged. I told the manager and she said that we would receive a refund and we never got it. The second time I went , I ordered water and when I received my bill, I was charged $13. When I asked the waiter why I was charged $13 , he said because I said “water” and that I should’ve specified “ tap water”. I then talked to the manager and she said that she would take it off my bill, and it was never removed.

Trying to find good Chinese food in Atlanta has been DIFFICULT! Until…The Sparrow! This place is delicious. The food was fresh, flavorful, and satisfying. I tried to lo mein, orange chicken, and the crawfish boil. Everything was great.
