It's fast, cheap, and tastes good. I always have food leftover for dinner. I didn't have high expectations because it is a classic hole-in-the-wall restaurant, but I was pleasantly surprised. The main reason I'm writing this is because of their steamed bok choy. Bok choy is not prepared quickly and requires thorough cleaning. PC's is well cooked, seasoned, and delicious. You need to try it.

Rarely are there times when I consider Panda express healthy, but Pacific grill is one such time.
Don't get me wrong, I enjoyed my lunch here at Pacific grill, which is basically your fast food Chinese cafeteria style shop, just with an extra scoop of grease.
What I like is they give you size options from the large two items with two meats, all the way down to one item and rice or noodles.
This day I got myself the noodles, steamed veggies and a sweet braised chicken (the name escapes me). The serving size was pretty big. In fact, I ate about 1/3 of it before taking it on the train with me and eating the rest for dinner.
Noodles and chicken were greasy, but the flavor was guilty good, and the food was piping hot (temperature wise). For about $7, you get your money's worth for real.
Located in the Shoppes at AT&T Center near the North Ave Marta Station, there's no seating inside Pacific grill, but there's seating all over the lower level and upper level of the AT&T center shared by all the restaurants there, meaning you can probably find a spot regardless of your visit.
You can access this area without riding Marta, although it's a great pit stop if you just want a quick bite without breaking free from the stations.
End of the day, Pacific Grill is not a bad restaurant. It's greasy, but it's tasty, filling and cheap for the volume of food you get. If I worked here I would come back. -

I can only speak on the Vegetarian options, but I was pleasantly surprised by the kale and carrot dish...It was seasoned very well and absolutely filling.
Pacific Grill is a largely non-descript "Hole-in-the-Wall", but during the work week, I tend to go for the best value for my money and PG accomplishes that goal pretty well. -

If you're looking for quick Chinese spot for lunch in midtown Atlanta then this is your goto place. I usually take lunch here once a week or so, very friendly service. Food is always tasty I always order Spicy Chicken but I don't go with fried rice as it can be salty sometimes.

Fast Chinese food with an excellent value lunch special near the North Avenue MARTA station. Pacific Grill is a small takeout restaurant located on West Peachtree Street near the towering AT&T skyscraper. Food is served mall restaurant food court style - start with rice or noodles, add meat (or two meats), and then pick a vegetable. For $7, you can get a two meat/vegetable combo with a drink (a can of soda, sweetened iced tea, or unsweetened iced tea). Meats include orange chicken, spicy chicken, and sesame fish. Vegetables include your typical Chinese mall cabbage/broccoli combo and string beans and an atypical kale dish. I wouldn't consider this Asian fusion - it's your typical Asian food court restaurant with more choices.
Highlights: The quality of the food is higher than the average Chinese food court restaurant. I ordered the sesame fish and the spicy chicken. The spicy chicken was a less spicy, saltier version of chicken 65 that's served at a lot of Indochinese restaurants. It was sufficiently juicy for my taste. This was the first time that I've ordered sesame fish. I was pleased to find that it was not overly breaded and that the fish was moist and tasty. Vegetables are definitely of above average quality for a mall food court restaurant. The vegetables had nice color and were not overcooked. I thought the line was fairly efficient for the volume of customers filing through. If you want a can of soda, grab it before you order. If you want iced tea, the cups are prefilled for you by the register. For a $7 meal including a drink, the portions are very good.
Critiques: The food is tasty, but not premium. It definitely beats your average mall food court restaurant, but it's still greasy, Americanized Chinese food. If you drive here, you'll most likely need to pay to park.
Overall: If you work in Midtown and are craving quick, Asian-American takeout without needing to place a phone call, Pacific Grill is a good option. The food is a bit greasy to be my lunch every day, but I would come back on occasion for lo mein and spicy chicken.
