Oriental Pearl Restaurant

Our group was 10 senior ladies and everyone enjoyed the experience. Our host & waiters patiently explained each dish and even cut some in half so everyone could try new dishes. The place was very clean and comfortable. It was great to get everyone at 1 table. I loved the lazy Susan so everyone could take what they liked. We loved the pork buns and dumplings as well as bok Choy The pork ribs were tender with a not too sweet sauce. And a few of us shared the pineapple buns which were a nice sweet at the end of our meal but didn't taste like pineapple. We can't wait to go back!

We tried this place on the recommendation of a guy on TikTok. The pros: ample parking and excellent attentive service. Also, the fried rice was top notch! Moist and flavorful without too much soy sauce. The cons: we came for the dim sum and it was a disappointment. The offerings were the usual dim sum fare & we ranked them as follows:Steamed bbq pork buns 2/10 - very little bbq pork. Tasted old and lukewarm.Shrimp dumplings 2/10 - dry, old tasting and lacked shrimp.Chicken feet 1/10 - floating in grease and again old tasting and lukewarm.Taro/meat dumpling 1/10 - cold, dry and gummy. Eggrolls 1/10 - cold, soggy and flavorless.Shrimp balls 1/10 - cold, rubbery and flavorless.I've eaten at many dim sum eatery's in the US and abroad and this would have to be my least favorite. I would however return for the fried rice, which was incredible.One last thing to note was a weird exchange we had with one of the women pushing the carts. She kept trying to sell us jewelry under the table from her apron pocket. Quite odd and frankly uncomfortable. It felt like we were being hustled. "Psst wanna buy a Rolex!" It wasn't a Rolex but you get my drift! I honestly think that the food off the regular menu might be good since the fried rice was so wonderful. For this reason I might try it again but skip the dim sum offerings.

The food here is alright - I might just have super high expectations growing up with houston chinese food, but nothing here was outstanding. My party of 4 came for dinner and we did part dim sum, part dinner entrees. Of all the items we ordered, I thought the walnut shrimp was the best! The shrimps are massive - truly some of the largest I've ever seen.They offer dim sum all day, but their dinner dim sum options are quite limited. I would say the siu mai was a little different than normal... wasn't the biggest fan. The interior is nice and is decorated like a classic chinese banquet restaurant. Overall I think the pricing is a bit steep to justify the average food.

Service excellent Food very tastyWe went at 1pm on July 4. They have dim sum carts today 10-3. About 1/2 were cold, I guess need to come earlier?but the cheung fun was fresh so warm and excellent. Congee great. They had soup dumplings now, but cold and dry, but soup with good taste - wouldn't get again.Some of the food in Chinatown food court ( directly next door) was tastier when we went a few weeks ago. Probably because everything there is freshly cooked.

Was on a trip driving through ATL and had to stop for some dim sum. First time trying this spot and even for a week day they had cart service and quick to fill our plates. Had all the usual suspects and was very tasty but not the top have had in US. Recommend for great food and if lived close by would visit often. Don't hesitate to give it a try!

For me, I consider this spot true authentic dim sum. Walking in the scent of sage or herbs took over the room. Reminded me of when I go to the Chinese super markets. Good sign!!!I've been here several times and overall, I really enjoy it. The service is better than a typical Chinese which is a plus!! Felt like I was being catered on by a whole team who actually listened! Very nice. Located in Chamblee "China town", there's the other side of the building where you can shop and a small food court. Inside, Tons of tables all around and on this holiday (MLK), we came in right when they opened at 11, and people did not stop coming in!! I really enjoy:Soup dumplings (5-6pcs)Chicken feetChive dumplingsOverall, I highly recommend giving this spot a visit. Delicious!!

Came here for a lunar new year celebration with a big group. We ordered the kitchen ordered food and didn't come for the typical dim sum. We got crab, lobster, chicken, pork, two vegetables dishes, fish, and noodles. The chicken dish was served cold and it was really good with all the scallion and cilantro. The ginger sauce that it came with was fragrant and a great dipping sauce for the chicken. The lobster dish was delicious and the right amount of salty! The lobster dish was with a ginger sauce as well. They also cracked a lot of the shells and the sauce seeped into the lobster. The crab was just as good and came with a good black bean sauce. The first vegetable dish with lotus came with mushroom and other root vegetables, I particularly liked this dish because of the different vegetables! The other vegetable dish was a simple wok fried vegetable and just as good. The fried noodles we ordered also came with lots of small pieces of seafood and had a good wok fried char flavor to it.The fish was steamed and very fresh, the meat just fell off the bones. I enjoyed the fish the most. The sweet and sour pork came with onion, bell pepper, and pineapple. In my opinion, this dish was a little too sweet than sour and most of the pieces were fatty, which I didn't love. They also have a plate of oranges at the end of the meal. Overall, I really enjoyed the dinner we had here and the service was efficient. They also changed out our dirty plates throughout dinner! Would love to come back to try their dimsum during the day.

I went to atlanta to try the dim sum so i could compare it to Houston and San Francisco. The dim sum menu was a bit lacking so I ordered the seafood egg tofu dish and basil clams. Overall, food was decent, not memorable and some dishes i expected to be silky and smooth were chewy. My basil clams were juicy but the sauce needed a bit of black bean flavoring along with the basil. My seafood egg tofu dish was completely missing the seafood. Imagine my shock to pay $23 for only egg tofu. Then the bill came and i was totally expecting g it to be at least 40% higher than it was. I kept asking if they were sure they charges me for everything. So food 3/5 but price 4.5/5.Compared to most Chinese restaurants in Houston, Tx that provide little or no service i was a bit spoiled by my wait staff constantly changing my dirty plates. We had to tell them it's ok to stop. So customer service 4/5.The ambiance reminds me if the older restaurants I used to go to in the 90's. They were even playing g music videos from that era. Very nostalgic!

Oriental Pearl has been opened for soooo many years we actually had a family wedding here. And the dim sum experience sadden me today. I did make reservations online which walking in I didn't need to the place was not packed at all. There were only 3-4 carts coming around with the same thing the whole time we were there. There was no chicken feet/spare ribs roast duck tripe stew/steamed rice rolls with shrimp. We had tea and like 7-8items and nothing else it was 9 of us water wasn't refiled nor tea. The bathrooms needed TLC and the place was just older and the food was too.

We visited this place for early lunch. Unfortunately, they only had Dim Sum, which I love. I would have love to try their authentic Chinese dishes; perhaps next time. This is an old restaurant that might require some updating. However, I can say that the service is wonderful and plenty of Dim Sum dishes. This is probably one of the best Dim Sun location we've visited. Everyone is willing to assist and answer your questions.
