With a whole highway devoted to international dining, it’s evident Atlanta has one of the widest variety of cuisine offerings, including Chinese food, than many other big cities.
No matter which county or area you’re in, there is a Chinese food option to suit every taste. Last week, you all cast your votes for the top kung pao chicken, chow mein and spring rolls our city’s eateries have to offer.
Though all the options on our poll are great, only one can be the winner.
Masterpiece took the No. 1 spot this time around, just as it did in last year's last year's inaugural poll on Chinese cuisine in Atlanta. In 2018, Atlanta Magazine named the eatery one of the 50 best restaurants in 2018. The writers ranked it as No. 3 on its list, noting that it was no surprise the restaurant has double in size since opening. "As long as his fermented long beans with "streaky pork," fried eggplant dusted with chili powder, and fish braised in chili oil are on the menu, those crowds won't wane."
Royal China in DeKalb took second place. The AJC rated this restaurant as one of the best places for dim sum in Atlanta.
Simon's Chinese Cuisine is a delicious North Fulton staple. Our food writers have been covering it for a long time, and for good reason.
Also included on the poll were East Pearl Seafood, Great Wall Chinese & Sushi, Chin Chin Chinese, Chai Peking Chinese Restaurant, Orient Express, Hsu's Gourmet, Chong Qing Hot Pot and Mandarin Oriental.
That isn't all. There's more great Chinese food on Buford Highway and in Gwinnett.
Eating great ethnic food doesn't have to be expensive, either - there are plenty of cheap eats.
