    General tso chicken
    Coddy A.

    Amazing Chinese Food in Nashville!" And just like that, we found Nashville's best Chinese restaurant- "China Cottage" We absolutely love their food. The steamed chicken and broccoli is a classic for a reason - perfectly cooked and flavorful. The General Tso's chicken is crispy and spicy, just how we like it. And the lemon chicken is a delightful blend of tangy and savory. We also always order an appetizer of pot stickers, which are perfectly cooked and delicious. To top it off, their hot tea is always refreshing. Always clean and welcoming. The service is always friendly and efficient. The servers are simply delightful We highly recommend China Cottage to anyone looking for delicious Chinese food in Nashville!"

    Crispy Spring Roll

    For years I have loved this place. If you look at my history of reviews you know I love to give positive reviews. Today, I had the worst experience ever with my food. I had to spit out the spring roll. This was a takeout order. The spring rolls were always the best- until today. The fried rice tasted off as well. This has never happened. I accepted that my favorite honey chicken had changed. But bad food is something that cannot happen with the cost of the meal.

    Barley even sauced and taste horrible. Paid almost 20$ for this and lo mein and never again will I do it.

    Food was terrible and expensive. Was supposed to be general tso chicken but it's barely sauced and horrible. I got lo mein with it that was okay but I paid 18$ and some change and I will never return

    This the best restaurant and the best Chinese in Nashville. The service is great and the employees are so nice. I live far away but I always travel to get this good. I have been coming here since 2007 and never had a problem. I hope nothing but the best for this restaurant!!!

    I wanted to keep this place a secret but it is too good not to share with everyone. As you walk in…read morethe server instantly guides you to a table, each time I come the service is pretty quick and there is usually no wait. The prices are very reasonable & parking is not hard to find as it is located in a plaza with Kroger right next to it. Everything in the menu is worth trying. There is not a single thing I have ordered that I have regretted. When I first came here I would only order the seafood noddle soup. The flavor from that soup is something I have never experienced before and my taste buds have always been satisfied with that soup, but the more I go the more I try something new and each time I don't regret it! That's so rare for everything in a menu to hit?! Some other entrees I have tried are loved are the sweet and sour chicken, beef yaki udon, Thai basil fried rice, pad Thai noodles, and the Singapore beef mei fun noodles. The appetizers all are incredible too some of my favorites are the crab Rangoon's, coconut shrimp, scallion pancakes, and the shrimp shu mai. The Thai iced tea is a must here! I get it every single time I visit.

    This place offers a variety of Asian food. Chinese, thai, and Japanese. I regrettably ordered from…read morethe Thai side and it was not good. I ordered the coconut fried rice because I love coconut and thought it sounded delicious. Wrong. It was so bland and odd tasting. It wasn't so bad I couldn't eat it but I had to add some of my friends regular fried rice to it to make it enjoyable. Now on the veggie spring rolls. They're definitely frozen and not freshly made. I could tell because of how mushy they were. All in all it was a pretty disappointing meal. I think this place might be good for standard American Chinese but they missed the mark on the dishes I ordered. I'll stick with my usual thai spot for freshly made and seasoned food. I did takeout and the food was ready quickly... maybe another reason it wasn't good? Idk go at your own risk.

    Thai food always hits the spot. Everything here was a 10/10. We started with the crunchy crab roll,…read morethe fried dumplings, and the crab Rangoons. My partner doesn't even like sushi and even he said "this is the best sushi I have tried" & yes it was that good! The eel sauce is a must!! The fried dumplings were very different from any other fried dumpling I have ever tried, but in a good way. The crab Rangoons were different too the inside was yellowish, which I'm used to seeing a white cheese interior, the filling melted perfectly in your mouth as you take a bite of the crunchy exterior. Amazing! For the main entree both dishes were stars packed with flavor and comfort; crispy chicken pad kee mao & the thao sai chicken noodle curry soup. We both had left overs as the portions here are great! The lychee fruit tea was so refreshing and delicious. The service here is pretty good and the inside is spacious with TVs, they were even playing a Harry Potter movie. Overall, I had a great experience and will certainly be back.

    I wish I lived closer to here, because I'd love to have a Go-to Thai food place. I usually judge…read moreThai restaurants by how good their phad thai is. And it was delicious here at Poy. We also had some sushi rolls and fried tofu and they were also good. The menu has a lot of choices of Thai fusion food, so there's something g for everyone. The place is big enough for families with a nice ambience. The wait staff was also very kind and friendly and attentive. I'd definitely come here again when I'm in the area.
