The long-awaited reopening of Tasty China has taken place. Formerly located on Franklin Gateway, Tasty China has been serving up its popular Szechuan fare at 1808 Power Ferry Road since mid-September, after a brief soft opening.
A sign out front notes a “grand opening” after 18 years at its original location. Owner Dahe Yang also operates a Tasty China in Smyrna and at Ponce City Market in Atlanta and also had a Tasty China II restaurant in Sandy Springs that closed in 2014.
The new Tasty China is in a spacious, standalone building on the former site of the Frontera restaurant, which never reopened after a fire in 2015.
It’s the second major restaurant opening in the Powers Ferry Road area in recent weeks, following the reopening of the Rose and Crown Tavern (1935 Powers Ferry Road) after the redevelopment of the former Restaurant Row.
The extensive menu (click here) at Tasty China remains largely the same, featuring spicy Szechuan appetizers, soups and entrees as well as lunch specials.
Tasty China (website) is open Sunday-Thursday from 11 a.m. to 10 p.m. and Saturday-Sunday from 11 a.m. to 11 p.m. Online ordering also is available. Phone: 770-627-2390.
