Food has no flavor. Definitely not worth the price. Wings are battered not floured and flavorless. Wonton soup has no flavor, broth taste like straight water. Fried rice has no flavor and was over cooked, dried out and hard. They redid it and the texture was better but still flavorless. Everything requires a sauce but you’re better off going somewhere else that is more reasonable as opposed to spending $36 for flavorless food that you will likely end up trashing. Large portions and I am only one person. Very disappointing.

Excellent place if you are Peruvian and want to eat a Kalu wantan, a good chaufa rice and our chifa noodles.Ask for Inka kola and they have a menu with photos, if you have questions when ordering.

Staffs are super friendly, but the food flavor needs improvement. They had some Mexican chef to cook authentic Chinese food, seriously...?

We went there today for Chinese new yearsWe ordered pecking duck and very Disappointed Very small portions for 68 dollars. My wife ordered a spicy dish and it wasn't spicy at all. She told them and they argued with her. And then they found out that they made a mistake and put the wrong order and worn suace they did try to correct but let's argue with us would not try again!!!The Peking duck is a deception. It is super dark and very small. It is not as good as the roast chicken bought in the supermarket. The roast chicken is bigger than this.Will never go to this restaurant again. And the fish-flavored eggplant is super sweet. Very disappointing in taste.The service is also so-so.

How have you not been here? This is the best Cantonese food in Atlanta: and I lived in China for several years. It is also some of THE best service I have ever experienced. I have never had a bad meal here. I genuinely don't understand how they only have four stars. Also, most Friday or Saturday evenings, you can still find a seat. Definitely a hidden gem on Buford Drive.

I was carving authentic Asian food. Took my baby girl with me, and we went to explore Doraville, aka Buford Highway. People aint lying when you ask them, "Where are all the authentic and amazing Chinese cuisine?" And they reply, " Buford Highway" or " Jimmy Carter Blvd." You really can't go wrong with any of the restaurants from these locations. However, the thing to look for is the health ratings of all the restaurants. Luckily, Yelp does that automatically for you when you search up the restaurants. Just be cautious about which restaurants you walk into and make sure it's sanitary like you would expect in any restaurants. We found this place, and the food was delicious. We ordered drunken noodles, chicken fried rice, combination congee, and, of course, hot and sour soup. Everything was cooked to the authentic taste. The reason why I deducted a star was for the health ratings. So far, my stomach feels just fine. You know the best foods are located at these hole in the wall places. Just use your best judgment and give it a try! I will be exploring and dining in this area more often in the future, so I know where to take my buddies from California when they visit!

I wanted to give this restaurant a go since I see every time I am in the area. This time I came here specially to give it a shot. I was disappointed to say the least. For some reason I expected some really authentic tasty Chinese food. It was just meh. The food made me think of the typical shopping plaza Chinese food store. I had the General's chicken even though I know this is not a traditional dish, It is how I gauge a new Chinese restaurant when I first eat there. My lady had the Kung Pao Chicken initially. The chicken came out first and it was basically Kung Pao peanuts. It was like someone spilled half of the Planter's peanuts in there. Oh and the chicken! Where was the chicken???? I could not believe that they sent that dish out to a dining guest. That was sent back and she opted for the Mongolian beef. It came out quickly, tons of onions, no green onions, and the soup noodles on the bottom. Never had it that way. The sauce itself was too sweet. My General's chicken was so so.. Pretty sweet lots of batter and bits of chicken inside. We also had the BBQ pork fried rice which in all honesty was just okay. Some of the pork was old in my opinion. I could just tell by the look and taste. It was fairly dry. I can tell they use MSG because the door left us with that bloated uneasy feeling. That being said, I finally got to give the BBQ corner a shot and was not impressed one bit. The service was fast and friendly but the food was not great.

Service was impeccable and food was excellent! I loved the snow peas even though our server had graciously told us that it wasn’t at its best quality during the winter season but it was still delicious and service was just amazing. I cannot say enough good things about the service that we had received there but maybe because my friend was a regular but I felt well taken care of and looked after. ? recommend for all and the food was delicious. Can’t wait to come back for Xmas!!!

I ordered out and got the BBQ Pork Fried Rice, Small Pork & Shrimp Wonton Soup, and Orange Chicken. The Wonton soup was the BEST I'd had in such a long time, and the small was a generous portion. The filling in the wontons was so flavorful and really densely packed. The fried rice was really taste and well seasoned, now I want the BBQ Pork alone. I also really enjoyed the orange chicken. I would return a thousand times.I didn't eat in but the restaurant looked very nice inside.Parking: It's just a complicated lot but plenty of parking.

Have been visiting it here on and off over two decades now. On and off only because there are many good Chinese around. It's the international corridor we call Buford Highway. But, we always go back to this corner when we want the best. Try anything and every. It's all good. Enjoy.

Nice neighborhood go to for Cantonese cuisine. BBQ Pork - the small was sufficient for two and was well seasoned but not too sweet. The meat was tender and not too fatty. 8 treasure clay pot - this is a classic with 8 ingredients - shrimp, squid, char siu, chicken, tofu, Napa cabbage, snow pea, mushrooms, braised in a clay pot. Really good! Green bean with Sze Chuan vegetables and minced pork - this was the only dish that wasn't really good. But really our fault for ordering it as it isn't native to Cantonese cooking.

As much as I love regional Chinese cuisine, I grew up on weekly takeout from my neighborhood American Chinese place. Dishes like General Tso's chicken, egg foo young, and house special fried rice hold a special place in my heart. Good quality American Chinese can be surprisingly hard to find, but my go to for the American Chinese dishes of my youth is BBQ Corner 2 in the Asian Square shopping center on Buford Highway. One of my absolute favorite comfort food meals is General Tso's chicken with roast pork fried rice. The rendition of those two dishes here is excellent. The General Tso's sauce possesses less cloying sweetness and more tang and spice than one may expect. The pork fried rice here benefits from well seasoned char siu pork chunks and the ideal balance of rice and veggies. One order of each yields about three meals worth of food for me, and the prices are subsequently quite reasonable. My order is always ready in a timely manner and the staff always serve with a smile. While this restaurant is a respectable Cantonese place in its own right, I shamefully haven't tried the authentic dishes here and can't comment on their quality. Nonetheless, BBQ Corner 2 remains my go to spot for American Chinese food and I'd heartily recommend it to any in search of well portioned and quality comfort food of that genre.
