China Moon Restaurant — Restaurant in Vinings

I come here sort of regularly with a friend of mine. What makes this place worthwhile, for me at least, is Ronnie the waiter. He has a great attitude and a fairly dry sense of humor (I think). He makes me laugh. It seems like he's the only waiter working there because he's the only one I've ever seen.

I think they do a huge takeout business, which is serviced by two ladies that work the front desk. They're always welcoming and smiling.

The food is ok. It's not bad and it's not outstanding; it's pretty middle-of-the-road Americanized Chinese food. The price seems a tad high for what you get. My friend loves the dish made with filet mignon. It's very tasty, but a bit on the pricey side for Chinese food. If you have a healthy appetite, I wouldn't recommend that dish; you'll still be hungry after you finish it. I know I was.

The last time I was there I ordered hot and sour soup to start, which was pretty spicy - just the way I like it. I then ordered one of the fried rice (made with brown rice) dishes as my main course, and that was not only very tasty but filling, too. One thing I nearly forgot to mention is that you can order brown rice and they don't hit you with an upcharge, which I think is great. Most Chinese restaurants charge $2 - $3 extra for every order of brown rice (maybe because it takes longer to cook than white rice or maybe because they can).

To wrap this up, it's a nice, casual place to go. The people are friendly and the food is tasty, for the most part. I think anything with a white sauce is pretty bland, though, so I don't order those dishes. I also think many of the portions tend toward the smaller size, which may be an issue for those of you with healthy appetites. That's my only big issue...

I ONLY WRITE REVIEWS IF NECESSARY.

I think the stubbornness in me destroyed my dinner.I have been using reviews from others to determine if something is worth purchasing. Unfortunately I did not listen to the reviews warning others to stay away. I decided to give this place the benefit of the doubt because I thought my case would be different. Anyway, I was seriously wrong. I ordered a side of fried rice, bbq ribs, crab rangoon, shrimp shumai and chicken dumplings. I was only able to eat the crab rangoon and forced the fried rice. Ribs were undercooked and inedible. Had to throw it in the trash. Even though I requested extra sauce you could see and smell the rawness of the meat. When you pull on the meat it’s stretchy and rubber like. After seeing that, I had to check the entire order. Huge disappointment. It’s sad to get this quality of food especially not being from GA. People speak so highly of GA’s foods, but I have yet to stumble on anything with substance. There are too many Chinese Restaurants to choose from so please go somewhere else. Other reviewers tried to warn me and I didn’t listen. It’s...

I've eaten at this restaurant about 3 times prior to today and I've never had a bad experience. I ordered my food over the phone and the guy told me it'll be about 45min. The driver shows up at my door with the food and I turn to put it on my counter and I notice that the driver was attempting to enter into my home (his foot crossed the threshold). I asked him if he could back up. I signed my ticket and bidded him good day. The driver stops me from closing the door and asks if I can tip him. I asked him to repeat himself so I can verify I heard him correctly and again he points to the tip line and asks for a tip. I tell him that I've already zero'd it out and to have a good day. He tells me no it's ok you can change it....I need gas money. I tell him no and proceed to close the door. He decides to stand at my closed door yelling that next time I need to come pick up my food instead of having it delivered amongst other things. I'll never eat from this restaurant or recommend...
