42 Best Chinese Restaurants near Brentwood

“Been going for all my life my favorite is the sesame chicken“

“The staff is very attentive, the food is delicious. Great place!“

“Great experience“

“I order delivery from here all the time - it’s my favorite Chinese restaurant I’ve had here in Nashville. Most restaurants in TN don’t add much flavor to their meals, but thankfully this place doesn’t hold back! My two favorite items are the Hot and Sour Soup and the Chongqing Hot Pepper Chicken, but everything I’ve tried has been super flavorful. I’m going to remain a repeat customer.“

“I haven’t been here in years. My wife is a chef but she’s feeling sick so she wanted somebody else to cook and she said that Chinese would hit the spot. Ordering at the counter was quick and easy and only about a six minute wait for the food. I ordered two different lunch specials, so the price was right, under $10 per person, and I got it home and it was still wonderfully hot and delicious.“

“Great lunch with the family. Ended up celebrating Mom's birthday! CAMERON (Cam) my man.... stellar service. will ask for you. Made our lunch an exceptional experience. As always.. the food was FAB!!“

“This was my wife's idea. I know, shocking that a wife can decide where to eat. LOL It was an excellent choice. We ate way more that we needed, but wanted to try multiple things on the menu. This ain't exactly what we usually eat, and wanted to hone in on what we order for future visits. I'll just get the beef soup next time, but with extra beef. It was delicious. My wife will get a steamed bun and we'll share seared pork and cabbage dumplings.“

“I really like the atmosphere and the hot pot at this restaurant.“

“Update: I remain thoroughly impressed by the exceptional service and culinary excellence provided. This establishment has unequivocally become my preferred destination for us my person and my beautiful Wife.

This venue consistently delivers an outstanding experience, with its impeccable cuisine, exemplary service, and inviting ambiance all contributing to a harmonious and perfect setting. The food is consistently delicious and served at optimal temperatures. The staff members are remarkably cordial and accommodating, and the restaurant itself maintains an impeccable standard of cleanliness and organization.“

“Love Ms. Cheap’s articles on smart shopping! We love seeing her at Ladies of Charity during our Clothing Consignment Sales in Spring and Fall…and our indoor estate sale mid summer called Stuff Galore. 2216 State Street across from Jimmy Kellys Steakhouse!“

“My wife and I have been on a search for a good Chinese restaurant, and we finally found it with great wall of China.

It's a small place in Brentwood/Franklin area, but typically those are the best. We ordered take out beef lo mein, orange chicken, and beef and broccoli. I really liked how some entrees you had the option to get a side of fried rice.

I had to drive an hour to get home and the food was still hot like it came out of the kitchen pretty awesome. Orange chicken had a unique sauce well balanced with a touch of heat, and even after a long drive still had a crunch to it this was our favorite.

The lo mein was excellent great sauce, the beef was tasty and they give you good cuts not that fatty or ends like some places. Beef and broccoli was awesome too great sauce and the ratio of beef to broccoli was right on.

The fried rice was a nice touch and delicious as well. This is our new go to spot.“

“Could not give it a better review- the food was perfection, the vibes in the restaurant were clean, put together and just the perfect place for a date or important meeting. And let me tell you the manager in the front was quick, very welcoming and had us excited for the experience ahead. Hat tip to the cooks and everyone here.“

“Their food is delicious, and the owners are so friendly. We’ve been going here for years, and it’s become a staple for our family!“

“Bamboo House has to be my go-to favorite place for Chinese/Asian Fusion cuisine. The servers are always so friendly, and the food is amazing! There is something for everyone on the menu, and they have so many great drinks to choose from! I don’t live in the area, but whenever I pass through I always try to stop here! Highly recommend!!!“

“The staff are friendly and efficient. Staying on top of the buffet and drinks.

The food is good as far as a usual chinese buffet goes with a good selection of options. If you like these types of buffets, then in general you'll like this.

Do not come in expecting some revolutionary dining experience. There's a tradition and pattern to this and they follow it well.“

“Been my favorite for 27 years ,great service and wonderful food . My granddaughter's favorite after school ," let's grab a snack " ,speaks volumes.“

“I’ve eaten here several times and always get the hunan chicken. Let me just say, I don’t typically go for super spicy foods (this dish is very spicy) but it’s SO good that I’m willing to suffer through the pain! The egg rolls are always great and the staff are SO friendly.“

“I have been coming here since I started working near by about a year ago and all I can say is this place is exceptional. The staff are always friendly and amazing, the food is always hot and ready when they say it will be, and just the overall vibe of the place is so welcoming. If I could give more than 5 stars I absolutely would!“

“Door dash,UberEats and Grubhub“

“Ordered the Chicken and Broccoli. It was fantastic. Great flavors and not too salty. The egg rolls were delicious. Not a thing wrong. No in-house delivery so I had to go through Door Dash.

The crab rangoons were also very tasty! Would order again.“

“I doubted I would agree with the name. So I stopped in and tried chicken on a stick. It was very good and the staff were really prompt and respectful. The cashier made me feel welcome also. Update: The food was so good I had to go back yesterday and there was no change in the flavor although I believe there was a different cook on shift. Flavor was on point !!“

“This is a quick place to get quick snacks for the kids. The kids saw someone with the tanghulu so they must have one each as well. It was $8.20 for one tanghulu each. The tanghulu was already premade so she handed us after we paid for it within two minutes.

They also have boba tea and food. The prices seem a little high for the food received.“

“Everyone at Chopstix, and their adorable children are perfect at hospitality, and making their authentic gourmet Asian dishes! Please, stop by, because they support local businesses and deserve your support. Xian xian!

Vegetarian options: Every dish can be made vegetarian.

Dietary restrictions: Everything is made to order.

Kid-friendliness: Fun atmosphere with children around.“

“I’ve been going to this restaurant for 10+ years, but yesterday was my first time there in a while. I’m gluten free and allergic to shellfish and had the pad Thai. It was amazing! The flavors were perfectly balanced, it was different from the Americanized version in the best way. They were knowledgeable about allergies. The service was very fast. The portion was also huge for a reasonable price, I went home with enough leftovers for a second meal. My husband had the fried rice which he said was great, but he liked my pad thai even better. My only complaint is the parking lot can be a little difficult to get in and out of. We went on a Thursday and had no issues, but on the weekend it can be challenging.“

“Great service and delicious food! Thank you to managers Hlue and Tony for their excellent care with a large catering order done every three months for a community dinner I, along with some friends support for an amazing non-profit Dismas House.“

“I was craving chicken, sauce and veggies, this hit the spot.
Ordered Moo Goo Gai Pan & Chicken with mushrooms. Both were done hot, fresh, and generous portions. This is a gem💎 let Chan take care of lunch or dinner today 🤗“

“This place is owned by such a sweet, humble family. My family and I love coming here for the food. Just something about supporting small, local family businesses as a family. Overall, the prices are reasonable, selection is great and you know everything is clean when the workers themselves eat the food there!“

“The food is so delicious although I had my Chinese fix already, I had to return for my son who wanted the same thing I had a couple days ago. Not too pleased with placing my card for payment in your hands and you placing it on the counter, where’s the mutual respect, not cool. Very pleased with the fact that I ordered diet shrimp and broccoli and inquired about garlic sauce. They added it no problem. Pros and cons I suppose. They were friendly enough today (I got the sisters mixed up). The vegetable fried rice here is my fav in Nashville, no one and I mean no one does it better! And the soft fried teriyaki chicken is everything coming from a real fatty!! The portions are plentiful, the broccoli was not over cooked and the flavor of the dishes is simply delish. I am very big on customer service, but all things considered, especially in 2025, I will definitely be going back. Give them a try. The food does not disappoint.“

“This place rocks! We've been here a few times (always takeout) and it's by far the best Chinese we've had in TN so far! There's lots of good Thai, Indian, and Japanese food around us in Mt Juliet, but there's really not a good Chinese restaurant, which is a damn shame (we're transplants from the Northeast). We stumbled upon China Spring while driving around and this is now our go-to as the quality of the food is always top-notch. They have a standard menu, but the flavors are so much better here than anywhere else. It's a bit of a drive for us, but it's totally worth it and I highly recommend coming here if you're in the mood for some damn good Chinese food!“

“Ordered a large Beef Lo Mein. The food was pretty good but it won’t knock your socks off. The noodles were well seasoned and had great texture, the veggies were good, but the beef could have done with a little more seasoning. For the price, it definitely hit the spot. I wish it wasn’t fried in shortening, but if I wanted a health forward meal, I would've gone somewhere else. The lady working the front counter was nice. Would give it like 4.3 stars but since that’s not an option, we’ll round it up.“

“This panda is the best. And their food is always consistently delicious—PERIOD. Every time I’m in the area I try to go to this location because it is so good! Give it a try and if not I surely will over and over again.

Keep in mind I eat the same thing every time .

“Great service, AMAZING food!!“

“This will be my go to Chinese restaurant in Franklin. Exactly what I was looking for. Crab rangoons were very good, and they have crab in them. I've been noticing some places that just serve cream cheese rangoons lately. The wanton soup hit the spot and chicken with broccoli also very good. Good sized portion as well. I could go back and order again right now. Good stuff.“

“New England transplants, this one’s for you. We recently moved from NH to TN and quickly realized Chinese food here hits differently. This spot is hands-down the closest we’ve found to back home.

Steak in a stick = beef teriyaki (a little well done, not chewy like back home), the rice is spot on, and the sweet and sour chicken is basically chicken fingers (more nugget-sized, but my kids were happy). The garlic chicken wings are just like Kowloon’s Saugus Wings.

If you’re craving New England–style Chinese food, this is the closest you’ll get.“

“We’ve eaten in and ordered online here. Eating in the food was always good! Ordering online is usually good too. There’s only been twice where the chicken & salmon was over cooked and tuff, but for the most part it’s been very good! Staff is very nice.“

“I walked in there was immediately no wait she showed me the lunch specials and said it’ll be ready in 5 by the time I sat down and pulled my phone out it was ready I was nervous but this sesame chicken did not disappoint this was probably my favorite I usually ask for soy to add but tried before it was the perfect combination of sauce and the rice was already seasoned magnificent I will be back thank you as well to the lady taking my order she was very kind and welcoming 🩷“

“This was my GO-TO spot whenever my baby was in the Children's Hospital. The noodle dishes were so good and tasted all very authentic. I ate something different on every visit and none of them were a miss, to include their rice dishes.

The service was what I'd expect from an Asian restaurant, a little bit distant. I'm sure its not quite to the American expectations, but it still gets the job done.“

“This was my wife's idea. I know, shocking that a wife can decide where to eat. LOL It was an excellent choice. We ate way more that we needed, but wanted to try multiple things on the menu. This ain't exactly what we usually eat, and wanted to hone in on what we order for future visits. I'll just get the beef soup next time, but with extra beef. It was delicious. My wife will get a steamed bun and we'll share seared pork and cabbage dumplings.“

“I have to applaud them on their new Dynamite Sweet and Sour Chicken. I'm used to seeing the chili pepper 🌶 letting me know it *might* have a kick. Not this one. Needs more than 1 pepper. Loving it, but it did catch me by surprise!“

“Im just a die hard fan of Panda Express. The staff is always smiling and happy to serve you. The whole menu is good.
My favorite tho... the fried rice with veggies and Sesame chicken on top.
Its always loaded.
And a root beer.
For 11.00 $!
Im full for most the day“
