20 Best Chinese Restaurants in Doraville

“This authentic Chinese restaurant could be my favorite in Atlanta. There were delicious hotpot, dry pot, and snacks. The place was beautiful in Chinese style. WiFi was fast.
We ordered the dry pot with three parts. The hotpot also looked delicious. We chose the squid and shrimp, frogs, and chicken wings. Highly recommend the squid and frogs. The wings were mediocre. Everything was fresh with a perfect spicy level. Definitely will try more things next time when visiting Atlanta.“

“Food – 5/5
I was craving charcoal skewers and Crazy Skewers absolutely delivered. I ordered the lamb kabob, beef kabob, Taiwan style sausage, ham sausage, chives, green pepper, and cucumbers — here's the breakdown:

Lamb Kabob — Grilled just right. Nicely seasoned without being overdone. A clean, well-executed skewer.

Beef Kabob — The fat fully rendered during the cook, adding to the overall flavor profile. Combined with the seasoning, it elevates the whole experience.

Taiwan Style Sausage — Sizeable, just like the ones you'd find in Taiwan. Has a pleasant sweet profile and is very satisfying to bite into.

Ham Sausage — Seasoned right and enjoyable. No complaints.

Chives — Served on a foil plate rather than a skewer, which is why it's priced a bit higher — don't let that catch you off guard. An essential dish for any Chinese charcoal BBQ spread. Great texture that adds to the overall table.

Green Pepper — It's a green pepper. It does its job.

Cucumbers — Another essential for Chinese charcoal BBQ. The garlic soy sauce coating is delicious, the crunch adds great texture to the spread, and it serves as a refreshing contrast to all the rich, savory skewers. Don't skip it.

Add a couple of beers to the mix and you've got yourself a wonderful evening. Everything pairs beautifully with a cold one.

Service – 5/5
Getting seated and ordering was smooth from the start. The staff aren't the most proficient in English, but mid-level communication is easily achievable — and given that there are plenty of English-only patrons who enjoy themselves here regularly, don't let that deter you. Ordering is done through a QR code pamphlet at your table. While you wait, there's a kettle of water and a small bowl of peanuts at the table — a great touch. The staff move fast, and for good reason — skewers are best enjoyed immediately off the charcoal, as the flavor changes once they cool down. Don't be alarmed if they're briskly dropping plates at nearby tables. Food comes out quickly, so be ready for your spread to arrive fast. For alcoholic beverages, walk up to the beer fridge, grab what you want, and there should be a bottle opener on the fridge. It gets added to your bill manually and won't appear on the QR code ordering platform.

Atmosphere – 5/5
I came alone on a Saturday evening and had a genuinely great time. The smell of grilled skewer seasoning hangs in the air from the moment you walk in and immediately gets your appetite going. The plaza has plenty of free parking, and it's surrounded by other popular establishments making it a solid destination on its own. One observation that gave me a good laugh — they sell vapes at the counter. Just something to note.

Overall, I will absolutely be coming back for my skewer fix. I did over-order trying to sample all the essentials, but I have zero regrets. There's something deeply satisfying about sitting there with a skewer in one hand and a cold beer in the other. Highly recommend.“

“This is one of the best noodle places I've found outside of China. The staff are so kind and helpful, especially with our little kids. You get to watch noodles being made through the kitchen window, and the flavor of everything is incredible.“

“Definitely one of my most favorite restaurants on Buford HWY! First I wasn’t sure if the chef was from Sichuan, but when I tasted a few key dishes, then I know he got it right. Later I found out the chef especially went to Sichuan for training! Great value for the $ and authentic taste - it’s a double win!“

“I love this place, like LOVE this place. Me and my friends go literally like twice a week and we never get tired of it. The employees are so friendly, the atmosphere is always neat and clean, and the food is SOOO good. I love you YGF Malatang. 😛😛 (P.S. Get Molly Tea along with your Malatang 😉)“

“Everything is delicious! Best dumplings anywhere!😋“

“Ayce is a good price and they give lots of options. Restaurant and food is clean. Service is fast and friendly. My friend accidentally gave double tip and they caught it and offered to pay back the difference. Best hot pot experience I’ve ever had for the price.“

“Food, service, and selections are great. Easy parking. Will definitely come back“

“This place is a must try if you are in the area. It was delicious.“

“Delicious. Not a word of English on the walls outside of the county inspection certificate. (85/100). Friendly staff described the food as "traditional Chinese". I am very Caucasian so of course the recommended the dumplings.... I asked for something with lots of flavor and some spice. I have no clue what I got but it has amazing flavor, lots of veggies, fish balls and some really well made sausage. The price is under $12 with complementary water. I'll be back to try more for sure!“

“Might be our new favorite restaurant. Everything was incredible and the service was great. The salt and pepper calamari blew our minds. Generous portions of everything meant we had enough left over for another meal, and we even put in another order to go because we didn’t want to stop eating it.“

“I’ve been coming here since I was 4 years old with my mom and grandma (I’m 31 now), and this place has had my heart for almost my entire life. ❤ Every single time I leave, I’m happy, satisfied, and already looking forward to the next visit. In all these years, I can honestly say I have never had a bad experience or a bad dish here.
They have such a great variety of Chinese dishes, including a plentiful selection of vegetarian options. I have SO many favorites: the beef chow fun, wonton noodle soup, orange chicken, sesame chicken, bok choy with garlic sauce, mixed vegetables in garlic sauce, snow pea leaves, lobster with ginger and scallions, and the sizzling beef in black pepper sauce with fried noodles..I could honestly keep going. Everything I’ve ever ordered has been delicious.
And if you’re Peruvian and miss chifa, you NEED to try this place. 🇵🇪
In my opinion, this is about as close as you can get to chifa in Atlanta. There’s something about the flavors and the family-style dining that feels so comforting and familiar.
The service is always friendly, warm, and pleasant, and the food comes out surprisingly quick. It’s also a great place for big families or groups because everything is perfect for sharing, and the prices are very reasonable for the portions.
This restaurant has been a part of my life for decades, and I genuinely hope it stays around forever. Places like this are special, not just because the food is delicious, but because they become part of your memories. I’m so grateful to have grown up eating here, and I’ll keep coming back for as long as they’re here. ❤“

“I absolutely love Master Pho! The food is always fresh, delicious, and full of authentic flavor. Every dish I’ve tried has been amazing, and the staff is friendly and welcoming. One of my favorite things is their Monthly Pho Eating Challenge—it’s so much fun! The event is full of excitement, laughter, and great energy for everyone. It’s a wonderful experience for families, friends, and anyone looking for a unique and joyful night out. I highly recommend Master Pho to anyone who loves great Vietnamese food and wants to create unforgettable memories. Come hungry, bring your family and friends, and don’t miss the monthly eating challenge! 🍜🎉“

“I’ve spent some time in Singapore and Malaysia and was craving a curry laksa. The Laksa was more “Amercanized” and even included potatoes, which should tell you all you need to know, if you’ve tried real laksa. Though it was good, the broth flavour is not authentic and if this is what you’re looking for, you may be disappointed. On the other hand, my Malaysian wife ordered the Hokkien horr fun which she enjoyed very much.“

“Been staying over here for years and never tried this restaurant but today I did and now I am over here beating myself up because I never did! THE FOOD WAS AMAZING! It reminded me of the one of those old hood Chinese restaurant growing up in Atlanta-Decatur that you really can't find anymore these days. Well this restaurant brought me home baby. I ordered the orange chicken, shrimp fried rice and a couple of egg rolls... And brought it home to Big Daddy so he can judge, the hubby. When I tell you he judge food like chef Ramsey 🤣 and he said aye that tasted pretty good there baby, I was in pure shock! But he was right! I dug in after my shower and enjoyed a great after work meal! Very yummy 😋“

“White windmill has become one of our favorite spots to have a cup of coffee and to have gatherings with contractors.“

“This restaurant deserves all the praise! The food tasted amazing, every bite packed with great flavor, and all dishes arrived hot and fresh. The chef clearly knows how to make delicious meals. The atmosphere is fantastic too. The interior is stylish and clean, with comfortable seating and a gentle, pleasant vibe. It is not noisy at all, so it is easy to chat and enjoy your time. The whole space feels inviting and well cared for. The staff were friendly and professional. We had a memorable meal and left very satisfied. For anyone wanting great food paired with a beautiful, relaxing environment, this is the right choice. We will return and bring more people with us.“

“Excellent food, quick and friendly service. I’ve tried several menu items but I always comeback to roast duck over rice. The food here reminds me of Chinatown in SF.“

“Corn noodle soup is the best! And also the lamb soup!!“
