China Inn

I used to order out from here often and it was decent food, but when I ordered yesterday I found a hair in my food. Last time I order from here.

Do not buy anything from China inn. Last night we ordered shrimp and vegetables and chicken and rice. I found that shrimps are not clean and still have the stuff on the back. I couldn’t finish my food. My wife who had chicken and rice woke up in midnight and threw up. We are going to call the health department too. I don’t want other people to get sick specially kids.

Our favorite hometown Chinese. Not counting Buford, which is a Chinatown– Japantown– Koreantown-​Thaitown– another Eastern Cuisine at its most authentic and best; China Inn is our little place around the corner that makes great steamed dumplings, a Thai inspired Tofu curry with vegetables and will custom make what ever dish you need.

It’s not the best and it’s not the worst. It will do and I’ve never gotten sick from eating here. The egg Foo young needs work, the beef lo mein is fair the hot and sour soup could be better, and the sesame chicken is ok. Like I said it’s not the best and it’s not the worst. I couldn’t imagine eating my food here, the décor is a turn off lol the food score is a high B if I’m not mistaking or could be a low A. **shrugs** it’s just ok but it’s better than most of the chinese in the area.

horrible service. I order a combination mean and they wanted to charge me for getting the crispy noodles. NOT extra noodles but Just the noodles that usually come with your meal. asked for soy sauce and had to beg for two packs, the veggies were cooked to a MUSH I will never go back

Lady at the front desk had an attitude. She assumed that my friend and I were taking our food to go. She had it bagged up and when we asked for two plates so that we can eat inside, she seemed annoyed. She actually dug inside the bag of food for the two plastic forks, since we were using silverware. Food was bland. I had a quart of the shrimp lo mein that I drowned with soy sauce. The egg roll hardly had any pork. It was basically a fried cabbage roll.

China Inn offers a few Thai meals. I ordered their Massaman Curry and was pleasantly surprised by the quantity of chicken and the flavor. I would recomnend it for take out without hesitation. Give it a try!

Hey, when you see the people eating their own food, you can’t hate. I’ve always noticed this spot from going to Subway next door or Publix a few steps down. I don’t really fancy Chinese food like that, but the Mr. wanted something other than Mexican cuisine. He asked me if I wanted to check out China Inn and I did despite some of the reviews I’ve seen. I ordered the Mixed Veggies and requested Garlic Sauce instead of the brown sauce with a side of Vegetable Fried Rice, oh and an order of Crab Ragoon. I wouldn’t dare order Chinese food with out it. There’s no way that you can mess that up. I waited until we got home to open everything up. Well, it looked good! The fried rice wasn’t what I expected — it had a bunch of broccoli and carrots in it, along with peas, and egg. It was really good! I was pleasantly surprised.
Oh, I forgot to mention that I called first to see what time they closed. It was a toss up between China Inn and Star East [ive been there once]. So anyway, the lady on the phone proceeded to ask me what I wanted. I stuttered and said «uh, uh, I’ll just come in and order» (I kinda wanted to see what the place looked like inside since a trusted Unilocaler was disgusted by them preparing food on service tables) So the lady said «yeah, you just come in», in her deepest accent.
Before we left, she stopped us and said «you just called?» I confirmed and she smiled and said «thank you coming in. yeah, come in.» see you next time.” I laughed and thanked her. This made me happy that I went in to make that connection.

Good, not great, reliable standard Chinese fare that is prepared quickly and reasonably priced. Great for an easy take out place if you’re nearby, wouldn’t recommend dining inside.

Recognize this place for what it is: a take-​out Chinese joint. Is it as good as anything in China Town or even a sit down place? Of course not. It is, however, consistently good quality, fast, and friendly. Menu has all the classics. Orders are always fresh tasting and prepared fast. Always amazed at the number of walk-​in customers who then take-​out. It’s so easy to call ahead if you have a menu (one comes with every order) and then pick it up ten minutes later. I walk past all the folks standing in line at the counter, pay for my food and walk out. Wings and fried rice are favorites if you’re part of that crowd, but be sure to give the entrees as shot.

This place is no Oriental Express. Nor is it the amazeballs Chinese food that is found in the neighborhoods of New York.
But!
This place is consistent, friendly, and clean. Everytime I go in– things look right. From what I can pick up, this particular restaurant is run by family (or friends) and it has that feel to it. The food is good. It’s always quick to pick up and they don’t balk when you want something done differently.
Yeah– I’ll be back.

This is a great to-​go order chinese restaurant.

Things you should never see at an eating establishment: Food being prepared out in the open on a table.
China Inn it was nice, but it’s over. You know better than that. Smh!
I used to love, love China Inn. It was your typical affordable Chinese takeout place, and the husband and I would stop by there a couple a times a month.
However, one day I saw one of their staff or owners (not sure) preparing dumplings on one of the eating tables reserved for customers, out in the open. I was so mortified that I had to snap a pic. To some people preparing dumplings on a table may not be a big deal, but I’m sure in food handling 101 that is a no no. You can’t prepare food on a table without any type of covering that many people have eaten on, and you can’t just prepare food and walk away from it unattended with no regard that a customer could do something to it.
Sadly, now I have to find a new neighborhood Chinese takeout.

I like the egg rolls. Everything else has been kind of bland or greasy. I prefer to drive up to Floyd Road to Star East.

China Inn is located in the new Publix shopping center in Mableton. They feature your standard Chinese take out at reasonable prices. Your food is always ready in 10 minutes and the staff is very friendly.
I usually get a veggie dish or sometimes I’ll go for a shrimp one. Last night it was General Tso’s Shrimp with steamed rice. Oh, that’s another thing– everything comes with streamed rice instead of fried. Love it!
