  Really enjoyed our dinner here! We had the steamed pork dumplings, Mandarin pork, and green scallion pancakes and everything was really good. Zoya was our waitress and she was great! Very friendly, attentive, and made sure we were taken care of without constantly hovering. I had my little one with me, and she definitely made the experience even better. Good food, great service, and we’ll definitely be back!

  My husband and I came here for the happy hour and we are glad we did. The service was fast and the cocktails were amazing!. They have an interesting selection of liquors, which I loved. I got to try something new (Baijiu), and I’m very happy I did—it was herbaceous and strong, which I loved. Our server, Zoya is a great conversation starter and made sure that we enjoyed our drinks (we absolutely did). The restaurant is GORGEOUS btw! I wish I hadn’t already eaten, because the food looked very yummy. Will definitely come back next time I’m in ALT. YIPPIE !!!!

  Zoya was absolutely amazing! Her knowledge of the food and drink menu are bar none and she just a really great conversationalist. The drinks were strong and tasty and the food is impeccable. Coming back next week.

  I’ve had plenty of bad food/experiences at restaurants before that I just move on from but this was exceptional enough to warrant a review as a PSA. I usually don’t care about service, especially if the food is good, but it’s worth mentioning. We went for lunch on the weekend, the restaurant was pretty empty, no one was at the front for seating. We waited until someone eventually came out. The table had one side coated with a sticky substance that blended in with the table and got on my arm. That’s kinda weird as the table had cups/utensils/napkins already laid out but ok. We simply asked if they could wipe or clean the sticky substance. This seemed to annoy the server, who then haphazardly sprayed cleaner on the table and into my water cup which he did not replace. When we asked to order, he somehow managed to be rude, bothered, and passive aggressive during that process too. So the service was bad but we stuck around hoping maybe the food would at least be decent. It was not. To start, their handmade pork buns (which were more like large dumplings than buns) had wrappings that looked, tasted, and felt freezer-burned. Maybe they didn’t account for how frozen the buns were because the fillings had no bounce and were so mushy that they might as well have been raw. We’ll see if food poisoning hits later. Next, the wood ear mushroom salad, one of the simplest dishes to make, was mind-bogglingly bland. It had virtually no flavor other than the taste of dirty dishwater, as if they had washed off any seasoning that had mistakenly gotten on the woodears. That or they were being environmentally friendly and decided to reuse dishwater to rehydrate and cook their woodears in. The last dish was the shrimp and pork dumplings, which seemed at least somewhat edible, but the filling consisted mostly of green onion with tiny portions of shrimp and pork. At this point we were so disgusted by the meal that we decided the fear factor nature of finishing any of the dishes far outweighed the cost of our food so we paid and left without finishing which brightened our server’s expression at least. All in all, the worst meal we’ve had in Atlanta so far. Don’t know where these good reviews came from.
