I like this place. Good Selections of food and drinks. My friend and I tried mapo tofu, salt and pepper shrimp, and beef noodle soup. All of them were delicious. Cooked well with good quality ingredients. Definitely one person one entree place unless you are a heavy eater. Three entree for two people was nearly impossible.The vibe of the place felt cliche: Chinese restaurant. But hey sometimes the classic style is what is nice about Chinese restaurants.It's also in the heart of Doraville. This place should be in your list of places to try for international food.

A staple Taiwanese restaurant in the Doravile area with great numbing spiced plates to crave those desires!Purely food based review:Spicy chicken Sichuan style - Tastes super authentic, great level of numbing spice, huge family style portion to share. Highly recommend.Mapo Tofu - Another great addition to share family style. Comes with rice you can refill.Sliced Beef Appetizer - it comes cold, so nice for a hot summer day. A little numbing spice as well.Pork Belly with Fried Tofu - not bad if you're wanting both dishes, otherwise I'd just get Mapo Tofu.

Wow! The 3 cups chicken was amazing. Giant pieces of sliced ginger and garlic clove. Simply amazing! Well done La Mei Zi!!!

Seafood soups, Peppered shrimp dish and the lamb dishes.

One of the best places to get Taiwanese food. Get the spicy fish dish and you won’t regret it. Everything here is also pretty good including the Dan Dan noodles and spicy wontons. The staff is friendly and attentive.

Food is salty and lack of other tastes. Basil chicken was lack of basil. The quality does not match the price. They also charge extra if you pay with credit card.

TL;DR - If you like rice and traditional Chinese dishes, you found a gem!! Beware, the food is on the salty end.I ordered an ice coffee milk tea. It is very different from the typical coffee milk tea at a boba place. There is a very slight hint of milk. It reminded me of the Hong Kong-style coffee milk tea I had in NYC.Spicy Fish Fillet - Avoid this dish if you can’t handle spicy food. If you do, it is perfect with a bowl of rice.Double cook pork - A little bit salty. For a meat lover, this is a plate of a dream. There is way more pork than vegetables. However, there are enough vegetables to make you feel not so guilty for eating all those fat bacon.Stirred Fried Chinese Okra - I’m not sure if it is called Chinese okra, but it is worth trying. The texture is similar to Okra but not as sticky.The servers are quick with our orders. Also, they gave us a complimentary dish of spicy cucumber. Not only is it free, but they are also very refreshing and crunchy.The dishes I got are great while severed on top of rice. If you are craving some rice with tasty dishes to go with, this is the place!!! The biggest complain that I have is the food is on the salty end. Beware!!

Uhhh…I’m Taiwanese and my wife is Korean. We’ve tried Boiled beef (or fish or lamb) in Szechuan sauce EVERYWHERE. This place has THE BEST FLAVOR for ma la Szechuan pepper corn and it’s numbing, spicy, comes scalding hot w veggies underneath. Sorry we are most of it before taking photos. The beef noodle soup is delicious too but the boiled beef was excellent for spicy ma La lovers. We’ve had several other items which were yummy too 3cup chicken, fried meats etc. Enjoy!

Just ok food and service, nothing specialA little overpriced for the quality and quantity of food

One of the best Taiwanese restaurants in Atlanta? we will absolutely visit here again!
