Masterpiece

Bib Gourmand$$Chinese, Sichuan

A long-standing favorite for mouth-numbing Sichuan specialties, Masterpiece is a bit out of the way in Duluth in an unassuming strip mall but it's worth the drive.

Masterpiece in Peachtree Corners specializes in Sichuan cuisine. Positive reviews highlight authentic, flavorful dishes with generous portions, recommending items like Dong Po pork, steamed fish, and Kung Pao chicken, with adjustable spice levels. However, negative feedback cites inconsistent meal pacing, dry or poorly presented dishes, and occasional service issues, including reports of unfriendly staff and alleged discrimination. The atmosphere is casual, and there is no lunch menu.

Anchoring the corner of a shopping center along Buford Highway, this busy spot features an expansive Korean menu. With so many options, it may be difficult to pick just one but start with a seafood or kimchi pancake or their seared mandu and you won't go wrong. Then, plenty of specialties tempt but you're here for one in particular: the house specialty "stone bowl" bibimbap. Take a peek at the neighboring tables and nearly everyone is tucking into one of these signature dishes. Bulgogi, or tender beef, is the classic order, and it arrives in the stone bowl sizzling long after it is set atop th
