1. LanZhou – Hand-Pulled Ramen
5231 Buford Hwy NE, Doraville, GA 30340
For noodles AND a show, LanZhou ramen is where you want to be! You’re going to love watching their chef create the noodles right in front of your eyes–stretching, pounding, and pulling each strand into shape. Choose from hand-pulled or knife-sliced, a bit thicker of a noodle. Get the pan fried dumplings too!
2. Jinya – Vegan Ramen
Real Jinya fans know that the really good stuff at Jinya is not the Tonkotsu (though it’s excellent) or the Sprouting Up Ramen–it’s the spicy, creamy vegan ramen! This garlicky, tofu-filled ramen has got just the perfect amount of kick and is a delight to vegans and non-vegans alike. Add a soft-boiled egg for even more perfection.
3. Mamak – Char Kway Toy
Malaysian favorite Mamak does a lot of things really well–but especially their char kway teow, a super addicting stir-fried flat noodle dish that satisfies every carbiest craving. You can find their noodles in Chamblee at 2390 Chamblee Tucker Rd or at their original location of 5150 Buford Hwy NE A-170 in Doraville, GA.
4. Food Terminal – Szechuan Bone Marrow Ramen
With a menu as big as Malaysian food hall Food Terminal’s, it’s definitely hard to choose which dish to try. But let us steer you in the right direction: the szechuan bone marrow ramen is fantastic. The bone marrow makes this dish even creamier and more decadent. And there’s just enough spice to clear your sinuses, but not enough to make your eyes water. Locations in West Midtown, Sandy Springs, Alpharetta, and on Buford Highway.
5. Xi’an Gourmet House
955 Spring St NW c, Atlanta, GA 30309
3875 Venture Dr a6, Duluth, GA 30096
This Chinese restaurant in Midtown offers a must-try dish: their Spicy Cumin Lamb Noodle. The stir-fried cumin lamb, topped with zesty chili powder and fresh green onions, is a true flavor sensation. They welcome guests every day of the week, except for Tuesday.
6. Gu’s Kitchen – Cold Noodles
4897 Buford Hwy Ste 104 Chamblee, GA 30341
Gu’s Kitchen is a must-stop for authentic Sichuan food in ATL. And their cold noodles are so flavorful and perfect for the hot summertime. Plus, the presentation is totally wow-inducing! When dining in, the noodles wrapped around a chopstick statue, suspending them in the air. Order the Zhong style dumplings, too!
7. Kin NoTori Ramen Bar
If you’re a fan of rich, creamy chicken broth, you definitely need to check out Kin No Tori Ramen bar. It’s a must-visit for a tasty experience! For something that really amps up your ramen game, go for their popular Spicy Miso Ramen. It has just the right amount of heat to keep things interesting. The house-made chicken broth is perfectly mixed with their unique spicy miso paste, giving it an extra flavor boost. And don’t forget to try their fluffy chicken and shrimp buns—they make a fantastic appetizer to go with any meal!
