“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.“

“Everything was great at this PF Changs. The food was fantastic as always, and wonderful service from Lauren! I had the teriyaki chicken and lettuce wraps, both phenomenal. Will definitely be back! The butternut squash dumplings are life changing btw.“

“A wonderful and nice place to eat. The staff is very nice and polite.“

“A great treat from beautiful China… A cultural experience in sampling the variety of choices (and there are many) you are given to make your selection. I have been eating at this restaurant for over seven years now and it is by far my most favorite Asian cuisine. Not only is the food exceptional, the service too is SUPERB!!! The last time I was there Gilda (aka Gina) was my waitress. She is extremely customer oriented, friendly, professional and always works to get your food out to you in a timely manner. If an error is made in the placement of your order she will do all within her power to correct it and make it right for the customer. Another waitress to ask for when you arrive is Julia. If you are visiting or just passing through Nashville I highly recommend China Cottage. Out of 5 Stars on the scale of 1 - 5 I give them a. “5”. ???“

“This place is a gem that has been operating here forever!! The best authentic Thai food in Nashville. The space is in a house and can be a bit tight and crowded, but I think it is one of the charms of old place that has been around for so long. You can see the owner likes plants, there are lot of hanging plants and pots all around which add charms and personal touch to the experience. Their Pad Thai is very tasty but it could be less sweet. The flavor is bold and tastes very authentic. I usually get the one with green bean noodles which has nice texture and tastier. We love their bao buns and dumplings, too. Their sticky mango dessert is one of the best I have ever tasted!“

“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.“

“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.“

“The best place for fast Asian food in Nashville. Has not changed in over 20 years.“

“Excellent food. I ordered the Chicken with vegetables. It was the best! I loved the freshness of the vegetables, the sauce was delicious.. We got excellent service and we love the new owners. It was a wonderful lunch. I can't say enough good things about it. You have to try it for yourself.. It was a joy to eat there. We had such a great time.“

“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.“

“GET THE TERIYAKI CHICKEN. From the moment I took my first bite, I was transported. The flavors were harmonious and rich, the sweetness of the glaze balanced beautifully with its savory depth, and the tenderness of the chicken was nothing short of exquisite. It was clear that this dish wasn’t merely cooked, but crafted with intention, precision, and, I dare say, love. It stood out not just as a meal, but as an experience. One that has lingered in my memory long after the last bite.“

“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.“

“This was my very first time ordering DoorDash from China Wok, and if I could give them 1,000 starts for the freshness and great taste I would!! So I'm giving them 1,000 stars!!!! My food was so hot when it arrived I was so amazed and pleased! I work from home so I didn't have time to go out and get lunch! Shout out to the DoorDash guy Steven as well!! He needs 1,001 stars! 😂 Thank you China Wok, I appreciate you! 🫶🏽“

“Super Wok's Chicken Lo Mein, Sesame Chicken, and Beef With Broccoli are all phenomenal dishes. Their food always hit never miss. I dine in at Super Wok once per month or I order for delivery. A friendly clean restaurant and atmosphere. On DoorDash if you order a certain amount of food Super Wok will give you a $9.00 discount.“

“I've had a handful of different dishes from here but I consistently order their House Special Lo Mein about once a month. It is definitely the best and most consistent Lo Mein I've had in my 28 years of living in middle TN. It's more of a take out restaurant than a sit-down restaurant but they are always very friendly and always ask if you want any sauces. I live in Lebanon and China Moon is by far better than all the Chinese restaurants in Lebanon.“

“I really enjoyed my dining experience with them you get a lot of food it's always hot they're very pleasant and the prices are really reasonable definitely recommend I just wish that they would update this restaurant it's been the same way since 20 01 through different owners but it needs to be repainted in either gray or black the chairs and tables have to go if they made it a nice looking environment I think more people would come it just looks kind of trashy“

“I was eating there sometimes and the place looks very nice and comfortable, the food its rich portion and tasty, I can recommend for everyone cause is family and friendly, the staff is very nice, I really love that place anytime you can enjoy it. 100% 💯“

“Wonderful food and company as well“

“Wonderful food and very friendly family owned restaurant. Been driving 20+ minutes out of our way to eat here for several years now. Husband says they have the best general tso’s chicken. I love everything but have to say I really enjoyed their moo shu vegetables recently. They are such a nice family. #supportlocal“

“I'm a regular , about once every 2 weeks for the lunch buffet. My only request is to diversify the menu a little. Bigger selection for sushi, and add mongolian beef or pork and coconut shrimp to the buffet. Just needs some new selections. Thank you.“

“Consistently the best Chinese delivery in the Mount Juliet area! My favorite for sure! Arrives hot and delicious every single time!“

“Always a comfortable setting and the atmosphere entices eating.“

“I use door dash on the app Rice box doesn't not allow special instructions at all . I place a call to Rice box they said my food was already done it wasn't but a few minutes after I placed order.. when the order got picked up they said that it was cooked extra spicy and extra crispy. pitched the food will not be back.“

“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!“

“The service here was really friendly and all their selections were continuously stocked in the middle of lunch time.

The only downer is that the portions seemed to be lacking from what I am used to seeing at Panda Express. #shrinkflation.

The Blazing Bourbon Chicken was really good and should be a permanent menu item.“

“I drove all the way from Gallatin Tennessee to Hendersonville just to get Chinese food from this place. It was so good so fresh and can’t wait To come back again. I used to live behind Peking house years ago so me and my kids used to eat it all the time but you know that it never change is great.“

“Have not been in a few years due to covid and personal illness. Decided to go as we use to do Sundays all the time. Very clean, choices were numerous and all tasted really good. Fresh watermelon was so sweet & good. Better food than Pucketts for sure.“

“The food was served hot, and while the orange chicken tasted good, but the kung pao chicken lacked the spice level compared to other Panda Express locations.

This location features a drive-thru and offers dine-in options.“

“TLDR; Great food! Don't be scared of the building!
We were super skeptical about this place when we pulled up, but oh boy where we wrong! It was definitely a takeout Chinese food place, and had all of the old food pictures on the wall, and the exact menu as any other cheap Chinese food place. The mixed reviews had me worried they were going to be garbage but folks, I could not be more wrong!
The food was absolutely delicious! I got sesame chicken combination and my partner got Orange chicken combination, which both came with fried rice and egg rolls. We got drinks added on and the bill was under 30$! I *wish* i had gotten an order of crab rangoon because I just know that would have been put of this world. Everything was super hot and fresh out of the kitchen, with thick flavorful sauces! Everyone said the rice was old in other reviews but my rice was absolutely perfect 👌 The egg rolls were crisp and left us wishing we had more!
Forgive the pictures because we did eat it in the car at 9 pm, but you could easily take it home or to a park to eat. But be warned! Our portions were absolutely huge and we had to bring the rest home!“

“The workers were friendly and the food was delicious. Unfortunately they didn't have two of our entrees ready, but it tasted even better after a short wait since it was just cooked and hot off the wok. The restaurant and bathroom were very clean.“

“We were visiting from out of town on Christmas. One of the only places opened.. they was SUPER busy. We called in our order and, was ready when we arrived to pick up Food was SOOO good. Location of restaurant is kind of sus… but, Will forsure order again if we close to the area…“

“Well that night was a bad day for me I came over there with a Lyft ride and The driver of course even though I had already paid for my ride decided that they wanted to leave me there and I'll come back but I hope I do believe in karma you get back what you dish out but usually karma comes back sevenfold so that being said I had a bad day that night however the people there the employees and I think the owner they were great with me they made sure I was okay and they tried to call me down and anyways they made no experience a little bit better and a lot more tolerable anyways I'll handle with myself I'm going to contact them tomorrow about that situation anyways but other than that the food was great they're very kind-hearted people there that restaurant are good people very good people“

“This is one of the most positive experiences I've had at Panda Express in a while. The food was fresh. They were cooking it fresh and they were moving quickly, and taking orders quickly. The restaurant was clean so it was a great experience, and again the food was fresh and that's why I was there.“

“They need to work on something when you go to a buffet all the other customers are touching the same spoons and they're not washing their hands of sanitizing I was kind of spectacle but I got my eyebrow Waze don't know if I would visit again“

“We were pleasantly surprised at the freshness and how often the food was refreshed. Our server was very attentive and friendly. We came around 4.30 on Friday for the dinner buffet which had crab, shrimp. Crawfish and many other seafood and meat dishes. Definitely worth a visit. Super reasonable price to boot.“

“For a Chinese takeaway experience, it was surprisingly good! Clean kitchen, and even the ingredient storage area was very tidy. The dishes had a really homely feel with comforting ingredient combinations, plus some greens too.

Thanks to Ramez for the friendly and warm service — we felt very welcomed 😊 One thing we really appreciated was that although dine-in had already closed and we could only use the drive-through, Ramez was so kind to open the door for us and let us order inside.

Little moments of kindness like this really make the whole experience memorable. Will come back again!“

“Been coming to this place for over 2 decades and this place never misses. Open to any and all kinds of ethnicities. They are the same owners and even if the building is a BIT older It gives that authenticity most restaurants and buffets are missing. Never a wait time. Food is great too!“
