Taiwanese Sausage 🌭 Absolutely incredible! One bite and it literally bursts with juice – that sweet, savory meat flavor just explodes in your mouth. Pair it with garlic slices and it's pure Taiwanese heaven. Lamb Skewers & Beef Skewers 🍖 Perfect charcoal flavor, tender meat that's not dry at all, and just the right amount of cumin. One after another, couldn't stop. Taiwanese Braised Pork Rice 🍚 Rich, savory sauce with perfectly balanced fatty and lean minced pork. Mix it all in and every grain of rice is coated in that delicious gravy. My friend said it's the closest thing to "home" he's had in America. Oyster Omelet 🦪 Crispy on the outside, chewy on the inside. Fresh oysters paired with sweet chili sauce – it instantly brought me back to the night markets. Taiwanese Stinky Tofu 🧈 Crispy outside, soft inside. Paired with pickled cabbage – that stinky, savory aroma is so addictive. Salt & Pepper Chicken 🍗 Big chunks, crispy coating, tender meat inside. Dusted with pepper and chili powder – couldn't stop grabbing more. Sichuan Spicy Wontons 🥟 Thin wrapper, packed filling. The chili oil is fragrant with just the right amount of numbing spice. One bite at a time, so satisfying.

Very cozy kebab place located off of Buford Hwy (in the Teso/Pho Bac shopping center). The service was fairly quick. The skewers were cooked well. The seasoning that comes on the side elevates the skewers.

First things first — the service is great. The kabobs are fresh with good flavor, and the grilled vegetables are well prepared. The fried rice is very hibachi-style, with a nice butter-and-soy profile. When it comes to the Taiwanese dishes, I’m a bit more critical since I’m a chef myself. The cold sliced tofu is good, the sausage is solid, and the stinky tofu isn’t very pungent but still enjoyable. The wonton soup is slightly peppery, which I liked. The crispy calamari had breading that was a bit thick and dry, with a noticeable starch flavor. I’d recommend use batter instead, or lightly boiled first then use potato starch and egg. The Taiwanese meatball was still a bit cold in the center — making it smaller would help it reheat more evenly. I do need to give the server some credit for noticed the issue and resolve it. Overall, this is a great small spot for Taiwanese food and skewers, and I’d definitely come back.

Tried the famous 3ft King Size Kabob at Machi Machi Kabob on Buford Highway and it literally barely fit on the table. The meat was smoky, juicy, and packed with that classic cumin BBQ flavor. The kabob actually comes with fried rice and sides, which makes it perfect for sharing. We also ordered grilled okra, eggplant, Taiwanese sausage, shrimp, and cheese oysters. Everything tasted even better with their signature sauce. Such a fun spot for late night eats with friends in the Atlanta area.

Trying the newly opened Machi Machi Kabob It’s a small Chinese restaurant. The concept is interesting, they are known for Kabob; grilled skewer meat, style. We found the winner for us was Beef Lo Mein, very flavorful with a hint of charred. We tried salt pepper calamari, Large lamb skewers, beef with scallion, and chicken skewers. The seasoning was light. The meat doesn’t taste like it’s been marinated, because beside outside seasoning, there’s no other flavors. The service was great. Food came out fast. Lots of parking in the busy plaza. The price is reasonable.
