Reviews for Northern China Eatery in Doraville, GA
This place serves excellent dumplings. On my initial visit, had the Pork with Chives Dumplings. So tasty and fresh, with... excellent skins! You can buy them frozen and I can confirm they were just as good cooked at home. Read more
Food smelled great great before walking in the door. Meet a friend of ours here for lunch. The place is small and the service... was slow but it was super busy. The food was delicious. Never had soup dumpling before. The menu is big to me. It was so muchstuff to try it was hard to choose which isn't a bad thing. Definitely will return. Read more
A very cool place to get your Chinese food! It can be a little tricky to find the place since it locates behind Italy Optical... and not visible from the street. Love their charcoal grilled cumin lamb! They were heavenly and with no hint of gaminess. Theirpork chive dumplings definitely come in second place. Don't really recommend their mapo tofu though, it was reeked withMSG. They also serve hot tea to your table. Be sure to get instead of the regular tap water. It was a great experience to stopby.

I tried for the 1st time real hand-crafted hot dumplings (Dim Sum), hot pot dishes, and traditional Chinese food. This is a must... stop and try everything kind of place. I ate so many different soup dumplings. So many that the ladies in the back taught me howthey roll out dumplings. Great Job! Read more
A friend recommended this place, and my wife and I really dug it! We ordered the soup dumplings (which are an explosion of... flavor), the beef noodle soup, and the stir fried beef with black bean sauce. It was all delicious and I'm eager to go back andtry the pork buns. Read more
This is a legit hole in the side wall. We ordered hot & sour soup, Shanghai soup dumplings, garlic eggplant, pork pan fried... dumplings, hot soy milk, and fried crullers. I?ve found my spot for hot & sour soup ????! My partner enjoyed their soupdumplings. Their garlic eggplant was really good, just a bit sweeter than expect but still very good! It?s a relatively smallplace so be patient, great food takes time. Read more
This is one of the most authentic Chinese restaurants I?ve ever been to in the United States, and I say that as a NYC resident... originally from Beijing who has visited all of the major (and plenty of minor) Chinatowns, so it really is high praise. Thereason I say it?s authentic is because it?s clear that the owners and staff are all from Beijing / northern China, as you canhear that they have the Beijing accent when speaking Chinese. We ordered dumplings, bao, meat pancake, and hot pot and all weredelicious, well-portioned, and seasoned. The entire time we were eating there was a table of ladies making fresh dumplings inthe back. Given it?s hidden location, nondescript decor, and no-nonsense service, this place has to rely on the food to make aname for itself, and I believe it definitely lives up to its name. Price-wise, it?s not super cheap at about $12 per entree butthe taste and reasonable portions make up for it. Read more
This place?.I barely have words. The service is fantastic, but more importantly, the dumplings are 4x more delicious than the... most famous dumplings houses we ate at when we lived in Taiwan for 9 months. This place is legit, homey, and super authentic inthe best way possible. This will be a must stop for us every time we visit or drive through the area. Read more
