Another amazing meal from our go-to Chinese restaurant in the Atlanta South area!
My wife and I first discovered this hidden gem around 2016 during a visit with her sister in Fayetteville. In 2018 we bought a home in Peachtree City and still drive here from there whenever we have a taste for Chinese food. (understanding completely that this is 'Chinese' food that has been adapted for Americans.) I have dined on business in Hong Kong and Taipei, totally different cuisine.
Our takeout dinner this evening was (8) Chicken Wings, one Hot & Sour Soup, (10) Crab Rangoon, one large Vegetable Lo Mein, and one C.4 Chicken w. Broccoli. This meal was ambrosia, fit for the gods!
There can only be three possible explanations for the miniscule group of people who rated this restaurant at less than four stars. One-in some way that you may or may not understand, you disrespected the people who operate it in the way that you treated them; two-in some way that you may or may not understand, you disrespected the food in the way that you treated it; three-your taste buds are prime candidates for the Darwin Award (tru dat, not smiling).
I have a bit of advice for those who may not be as well acquainted with the business. If you are looking for the best experience from a restaurant or other food service establishment (including fast food) never go during a peak revenue period unless you have no other choice. Those periods (which also include the entire first two weeks of new restaurant openings) are referred to in the trade as 'having your doors blown off.' If you insist on going when they are having their doors blown off expect (another trade expression) 'to be violated' in some way, form or fashion.The Google review app will actually show you a graph of peak revenue days and peak revenue hours by day.
Even in a typical fine dining restaurant the meal order that you receive on a busy Friday or Saturday evening will pale in comparison to the very same order prepared on a quiet Tuesday or Wednesday evening at the very same hour at the very same establishment (if prepared by the very same kitchen; if they switch chefs on you all bets are off). Do both yourself and the restaurant a favor and avoid the crush.
Does Taste of China have dine-in date ambiance? No. What takeout Chinese does? Will you get very good food for very good value? Absolutely! Our takeout dinner at Taste of China Fayetteville was placed at 3:15 pm on a Wednesday, reheated and eaten at home with a wonderful bottle of wine at 6:15 pm....
Ā Ā Ā Read moreI live about a mile away, and I frequent the hair salon next door to visit my friend who owns it, so I eat here from time to time. Today, I had my husband run in and grab some food for me on my way home from having surgery. I hadn't eaten any real food since the day before yesterday, so I was craving something really good. I normally get the sweet and sour chicken with steamed white rice; but after hearing people rave about how good their chicken wings are, I figured I would give them a try. Now let me say that these recommendations came from total strangers that I encountered ordering food or leaving the restaurant..lemon pepper, plain, or braided... I figured I would play it safe and try the lemon pepper wings. I must say I am pleasantly impressed! The wings are fried to perfection with just the right amount of lemon pepper seasoning throughout. Each bite is flavorful,, with just the right amount of crunch.. I also got the hot and sour soup- which was absolutely delicious! The broth is well seasoned with just a hint of heat and a note of sweetness. It's packed with vegetables and chunks of chicken.I would definitely recommend the sweet and sour chicken, a minute of wings, and hot and sour soup. My husband got the Philly cheese steak egg rolls, but that's not my thing. The fact that I stopped to leave this review right after arriving home from having major surgery should tell you that the is food...
Ā Ā Ā Read moreUsed to come here at least once a week but today is the last time and im not sure what has changed but the food for the first time was trash!! First of all they got the order wrong and had an attitude with me! I ordered mongolian beef and they gave me what looked like peeper steak with what tasted like all they did was put sugar in the sauce unacceptable!! Then the wonton soup looked like it was going to be good until i took a bite and the meat inside first of all was as big as a green pea and the taste was horrible like cardboard. The lady told me she was in the industry for 10 years with an attitude and that i basically didnt know what i was talking about but i have been eating asian style food for over 30 years and never had food this disgusting!! I used to spend upwards of 70 to 80 dollars everytime i would get take out and i dont know what has changed but they will get no business from me again!! Rude and...
