The fiery nuances of Szechuan cuisine at Marietta's Tasty China - and the mild intestinal discomfort that can accompany it - is still totally worth the drive. 2013 Best of Atlanta Critics Pick Read more

dandan noodles are so spicy good! recommended!! a good NON-spicy dish is the fish fillet w/ black bean sauce. the crispy beef is also good, but is sweet and heavy with sauce. bring cash for discount

Absolutely awesome, authentic Szechuan dishes. Marvelous flavors and terrific spice balance! I recommend the Ma La (Hot & Numbing) crispy beef. You won't want to stop eating it!

Not so secret delicious Chinese food in Marietta - lamb hot pot with cilantro was absolutely delicious along with the mixed vegetables with tofu. Service a little spotty but food makes it worth it!!

If you're a spice fiend, the "hot and numbing" dishes are powerful stuff. For those who like spicy, but not too crazy, the Basil Chicken and Double Cooked Pork are excellent choices.

Must-orders: The dry-fried eggplant, hot and numbing beef rolls, fish and silken tofu in hot oil, Shan City chicken, and spicy cold noodles. [Eater 38 Member]

Mandarin shrimp consisted of white and green onions and those tiny cheap shrimp

The heat is still on with fiery, authentic Szechuan/Chinese food not to be ventured into lightly -- the kitchen here still cooks with fervor, and lots of Sichuan peppers and peppercorns. Read more

"Start with delectable fish coriander rolls, then fire it up with Hot and Numbing beef tenderloin, squid in iron plate, and crispy pork feet."

Spicy crispy pork belly is Oh So good! Shan City Shrimp is remarkable. Dry fried egg plant is crisp and tasty.

If I knew 100% what authentic Chinese was, I would say it was this place. Lots of spicy dishes. Everything was delicious.

The Dry fried eggplant is thick french-fry-like, battered and fried sticks of eggplant have gone through a few incarnations, but the current one is as good as it comes. Read more

Ditto on the dry-fried eggplant. Add also Shan City chicken, fish with black bean sauce, pork meatball, and Chinese salad. Bring a bottle of off-dry white wine to accompany the Schezuan dishes!

Try everything! I haven't had a single dish here that wasn't amazing. Be warned: spicy means SPICY here! Soooo hot, but Soooo good.

Ditto on the dry fried eggplant and do not miss the Dan Dan noodles ! Best Chinese in the Atlanta metro area.

The cold beef tendon in chili sauce is always great. Also try the salt and pepper fish!
Tai Saint-LouisJune 14, 2016
The hot and numbing peppers take a second to get used to, but SOOOOOOO good!
Andrew CFebruary 3, 2015
Hell no. Don't even bother. Orange chicken tastes identical to the general tso chicken. Mongolian beef looks like a cooked cat.
jose rJanuary 25, 2012
from prior experiences here try the broccoli in garlic sauce, the dried fried eggplant, the spare ribs w/hot peppers,

Dishes not to be missed: dry-fried eggplant, crispy shredded chicken, chili oil wonton soup, deep fried smoked duck, soup dumplings (order early, they take a while)

Go to Tasty China and try the Schezuan menu items. If you like spicy food, make sure you ask them to make it spicy. Read more

They look like burritos, but taste like Szechuan dreams. Bite into the hot and numbing beef rolls, ranked one of the best 100 Dishes in the ATL, and experience full-blown food lust for weeks to come. Read more

Food is ok. But if you want good service find some other place. Servers were very rude. Definitely won't go here again and will not recommend to a friend.
Henry FrazierAugust 24, 2013
Food wasn't bad. They just overkill with peppers. My one pepper meal felt more like a 4 pepper meal. It burned extremely. I couldn't even eat it.
