After a long drive visiting Knoxville, TN we were craving something quick, comforting, and familiar--and China Town Restaurant hit the spot perfectly. We arrived close to closing and were warmly welcomed by the friendliest and funny gentleman, which already made us feel at home. The place is simple and a bit old-school, but clean and well kept. I had the Shrimp Egg Fu Young and my cousin ordered the Chicken with Black Bean Sauce--both were freshly made, flavorful, and super filling. Portions were generous enough that we had leftovers for the next day! Nothing fancy, just really good, classic Chinese food and a nice break from all the Southern dishes in the area. We like it so much that we came back again a few days later. If you're visiting the Smokies and craving Chinese food, this is definitely the spot we'll keep coming back to! read more

Good Chinese American food. Good hot and sour soup. Don't expect much from the ambience. Somewhat stereotypical. Good service too. Worth a try. read more

Great service and the food was hot, fresh, and came out in a timely manner. We started eating already so the portions are bigger than this, but we got the sesame chicken and the chicken in garlic sauce. Would recommend and looking forward to going back when we are in the area again! read more

Chinatown Restaurant - 118. Sesame Chicken 108. Chicken in Garlic Sauce - Szechuan Near Me - Sevierville, Tennessee

Worst Chinese food i had in my life. No flavor,everything was either bland or tasted like feet.

Ordered our meal online, went to restaurant, and they were closed. Don't order from them online without checking

I would definitely give this restaurant no stars if possible. So my family decided with Chinese and we found this restaurant online since it had good reviews. So ordered online, got my food to go, arrived back at the place we were all staying and got everything out of the bag. I noticed the rice with soy sauce that hasn't even been mixed thoroughly. (I provided pictures) this was like those minute rice you microwave. I expected fresh cooked rice!! That was only the first part and the general tsos wasn't even cooked properly and did not taste like a general tso! All of my entrees I order was completely disgusting! (The pu pu platter, the beef & broccoli, chicken etc) Nothing was cooked right and Im really sure everything was reheated and was sitting out!! This is the very first Chinese restaurant I've ever eaten at that I hated so much of their food. I wish they would shut down!!! I don't even know how this restaurant has such high reviews. I'm mad that I wasted money for such awful food and my family wasn't able to enjoy any of it. I DONT RECOMMEND THIS RESTAURANT! save your family, money and time and go somewhere different. read more

Very disappointed with $85 carry out order. Chicken with broccoli was slimy and went into trash. Kid's meal of chicken nuggets was too tough to chew and went into trash. Shrimp lo mein had decent flavor but in all my years, never had shrimp lo mein with mini salad shrimp. Egg rolls and crab rangoon were just okay. Plain lo mein eas okay but hard to mess up! Would not recommend. read more

I'd give this place 3.5 stars. Portions are great and prices are very reasonable. Had some trouble with ordering (minor) - think it's more of the language barrier but workable. Tried a couple of dishes from the lunch menu - the Szechuan chicken is marked as spicy but it was more sweet than anything else, there was also not a lot of meat in there. Their beef dishes are pretty good. Egg fried rice lacked flavor and very little egg. The spicy cabbage was really good, albeit the greasiness. The Singapore noodles was probably the best dish - very flavorful - would recommend. Overall a pretty decent Chinese spot for a quick lunch or dinner. read more

Lunchtime on a Thursday. Restaurant is next to car lot. Limited parking. Dining area is fairly clean. Server didn't rush. Food was ok. Had the sweet and sour chicken and shrimp and the beef broccoli. read more

No flavor and everything is extremely salty. Sadly if you want something resembling Chinese go to Panda Express, at least you will get something edible. read more

Came to Chinatown once about a year ago b/c I love Chinese food and tried every restaurant within 15 miles. It wasn't bad in general but did have a funny off taste to every dish. They must add a bit of something the other places don't. I wasn't excited about it but maybe others would like it. Have not been back but I will if reviews are good enough. Prices are good but service was poor, waiter was indifferent. read more

This food is so salty and has no flavor to it. The service is barely half decent. The ambiance is just not it, never go here EVER!!!!!

Decor, Service and Food, in no particular order. I can't believe the rating that this restaurant has. The restaurant decor needs a total revamp. The Food was mediocre and lukewarm. Skip. read more

Gave me a tortilla for my mooshu pork , who in the world does that if i wanted Mexican food i would have went somewhere else , and i am mexican, and a store bought tortilla is a insult . read more

Chinatown Restaurant - A tortilla what the heck . I ordered mooshu pork with pancakes not tortillas - Szechuan Near Me - Sevierville, Tennessee

Definitely the most authentic Chinese food around! Great prices, too. I enjoy their roast pork dishes.

I'm leaving a one star because I can't leave anything lower than that. My family and I ordered take out from this place and the food is just terrible. The fried rice is white rice with a whisper of soy sauce, the chicken lo mein was pretty good but tasted a bit oily, the general tso's chicken shouldn't be eaten at all because it tastes like it was cook in a dishwasher and had this slimy sauce. The chicken fried rice had 0 flavor and even the soy sauce packets aren't even salty. The fortune cookies taste about 3 years expired and the crab rangoons are not crab rangoons. Pro tip, if you order from here avoid getting the boiled chicken and get beef or shrimp instead.... not wow, but edible. Oh also they just don't know how to season any of their food. read more

Chinatown Restaurant - take what you will from this fortune - Szechuan Near Me - Sevierville, Tennessee

This place was excellent, as you would expect for a place that has been here since the 80s. Now mind you, you CAN tell it's been here that long...but that's part of the charm. Firstly, let me say that the drive thru was a cool novelty. The only time I've ever got Chinese drive thru is from Panda Express (which I imagine is pretty much the way anybody reading this has done it). Driving up and ordering was fun. So, on to the rest...food was great! I got General Tso's chicken and it was really good. Very crispy and very flavorful. I had a good drive back to the house I was staying at and it was still fresh and warm when I got there. Service was abrupt but decent. Guy popped his head out the window, asked what I wanted, then disappeared. He came back when my food was ready and that was it. Oh: tip for tourists! It seems common down here for you to get brown rice...but it seems more like white rice with some soy sauce...lightly fried maybe? That seems to be the standard from the three places I tried down here. read more

Chinatown Restaurant - General Tso's chicken - Szechuan Near Me - Sevierville, Tennessee

The food is amazing, the service is top tier and dining in with Chinatown is always a plus

Love this place! I have ate here since I was a teenager. I always do take out instead of dining in. The flavor is always great and the prices are reasonable as well. read more

I have NEVER given a restaurant 1 star, until I visited Chinatown Restraunts. The menu looked appetizing, but it went downhill once the food arrived. My fried rice was literally white rice with soy sauce poured on top, not fried at all. The lemon chicken was plain chicken with lemons. The server was also not very kind. There are not many Chinese restaurants in the area, however this is one place to AVOID. read more

imp Egg Foo Young was some of the best I've ever had and the gravy/sauce was delicious. It was two large portions. My wife loved the hot and sour soup and her order of Shrimp & Scallops in Ginger Sauce. I would definitely recommend this restaurant. The service was attentive and excellent. read more

Chinatown Restaurant - Shrimp Egg Foo Young - Szechuan Near Me - Sevierville, Tennessee

I was in town on vacation and Im a fan of fried rice but unfortunately it didnt hit the spot. Orange chicken was ok but rice was below average maybe something I can make at home just experimenting. Portion was on smaller side too. Maybe Im just spoiled with Chinese food in Chicago:) also hot sauce was not what I was expecting, not a lot of flavor just spicy. read more

I really wasn't expecting much out of this place and that's exactly what I got. Everything just seemed to lack and real flavor. Most of it tasted like something that you could pickup and microwave from the freezer section. Service was good. read more

First visit here. The place is an old fashioned Chinese restaurant. I was seated and ordered a PuPu platter appetizer and the twice cooked pork. My order included soup, I chose the hot and sour from a selection of three soups, which I thought was nice. The platter was pretty good. The ribs on the platter were meh. My main dish arrived. It was a tasty mix of bbq'd pork and vegetables. My main dish was a little salty, but still good. Service was great, my soda never went below half empty. I'd enjoy eating there again. Good old fashioned Chinese food! read more

Moving from the San Francisco Bay Area, it has been difficult for sure to find an authentic Chinese restaurant. Lest I seem snobbish, keep in mind that San Francisco has one of the largest Chinese communities in the US. Chinatown is a densely packed area, with 126,200 people, seven times larger in density than the rest of San Francisco. Needless to say, there is no better place in the US for authentic Chinese food. We have been here for 8 years and all Chinese restaurants we have tried failed to make the grade. We gave up trying and resigned ourselves to the fact that we would probably not be able to find authentic Chinese food. Today we were in Sevierville and decided to look for Chinese restaurants. This one popped up on Yelp with a 4.5 stars and a 97 health department score. We decided to try it out. We arrived around 4:30 and were the only ones in the restaurant. A friendly waiter told us we could sit anywhere we wanted. He took our drink orders and we began to peruse the menu. Nice offerings, reasonable prices and later we found out -- ample serving sizes. We chose the Hot & Sour soup for an appetizer and it was delicious. Just like we remember from San Francisco. We chose the 5 Sauce Crispy Ginger Shrimp to share. It came with an order of brown rice. This dish was sumptuous! The sauce was spot on and the crispiness of the shrimp was delightful. The small bits of ginger were the crowning jewel of this dish. Needless to say, this was the first authentic Chinese food we have had in 8 years! Bravo! I would wish the rating score would have allowed me to rate 4.5, but it doesn't, so thus the 4 for a score. The reason I did not give it a 5 is because the restrooms are less than sparkling and the appearance from the outside is tired. Some sleeves-up deep cleaning could make this a 5 in my mind. Other than that, I would highly recommend this restaurant for a true taste of China. read more

It was closed. We went at 6 on Friday night. Really wanted Chinese food. Settled for Mexican instead.

We'll let's see we all know that everyone has different taste buds but this place is real deal I've lived in Chicago for over 30 years I'm half Chinese, Chinese side of family owned a restaurant for over 30 years multiple trips to Chinatown yea kinda know what I'm talkin about when it s Comes to good Chinese food! or even decent Chinese food , my grandma is from Hong Kong so don't let other post get you discouraged from this place , this guy said he's been here since the 70's If that's the case you least knw it's good especially it's 2021 but again everyone's taste buds are different , I've ordered potstickers, egg rolls crab Rangoon's, broccoli with beef, spicy noodles list keeps going figure I'll try everything here but yes it's good n fresh only thing is different for me is up north they give you white rice ,here in the south they give you fried rice, they do up north ( fried rice cost extra) just lil different at times I forget to order white but figure throw on the rice cooker Lol just wish Tennessee had dim sum close then I'd feel complete but nothing but a lil drive to Atlanta GA is fine again go n try this place out it's on the busy corner but hey I'll take the drive after all got to drive back roads around this tourist town. still I am trying other Chinese spots but again Chinatown got me hooked scared to try some one else especially wrk hard for my money but yes call in ahead if picking up or you can Eat in or wait for your order every time I go they are busy but always have my order ready n they give u a good amount of food!

Chinatown Restaurant - Mongolian Beef Chicken Fried Rice - Szechuan Near Me - Sevierville, Tennessee

Very good authentic Chinese food. We have been eating here for many years and service is always good. Food is always amazing.

Really good chicken fried rice it's amazing specially when you add green onions in it

Everyone in our party got varying degrees of sick after ordering takeout from here. None of us ate even half our food. The egg rolls tasted like they were made with spoiled cabbage--not the good kind of spoiled cabbage (kimchi) either. The bad kind you find at the bottom of your fridge after you swear you're going to eat more vegetables one week but it never happens. I ordered Kan Shaw chicken. My wife ordered General Tso's Chicken. We received two microwave dinners of something resembling General Tso's, fried to death with a terrible sugary sauce and five little sad broccoli florets on the side. My dad got chicken chow mein, He was very quiet. Then he ate some leftover pastries instead. Avoid at all costs. read more

I do not remember when was the last time I left a review online. and I rarely do, for sure less than once a year But I have to. Horrible Horriable service, with just edible food. All I want to say here is, the food can be bad, but don't talk in such ways and have such horrible service quality, shame on you and please don't bring shame to Chinese. Not all Chinese food are bad not Chinese service is bad. But some, are black sheep! Story as below~~~ Once I sat down and looked at the menu, I asked the server( not Chinese for sure but it does not matter at all), I asked, "what is Hunan beef?" He replied, "Hunan beef is Hunan beef." I asked the second time in different way, "what's the ingredients and how you guys make it?" He did not answer my question but asked me, "are you Chinese? You don't seem like a Chinese you have not heard of Hunan beef?" wtf? I born and raise in China and I lived in Hunan for months, I am just curious how they make it so I asked. EVEN If I am not Chinese, so what? Can't ASK? The conversation with the server already annoyed me. Seconds later, I ordered for my 7 years old girl a sweet and sour shrimps coz she wanted it. The server then told me, "that is not Chinese food, it is for American. Are you Chinese( second time he asked me. " I was speechless, Ya, my girl is ABC and she wanted to order it. So what? I found it not only annoying but funny and "funny" at the same time, the server do not know how to serve, and talk. Whatever, I changed my idea and order the spicy boil beef instead. Food came, Neither the sweet sour shrimp nor Spicy boil beef look good, rather than the flavor. It is K, I was hungry and we started eating. The same server came and asked if everything is good, I was like it is ok. Then he said, "you don't like it?" I explained the broth of my beef dish looks weird and it looked like slushy, perhaps the corn starch was too much or cook too long(from my experience) I said it in a way that try not to offend him coz the server seems quite rude already. He left. I thought that was the end and I can just eat the food fill up my stomach that's it. Minutes later, omg the owner came and asked about the dish, and I said the same thing to the owner. Guess what, first thing he asked me was the same question as the server did, " are you Chinese?" Holly Molly God help me, I have such a freaking asian face if not Chinese face, but what's the point you guys ask me that, for the third time? Whatever, AGAIN, I told him IN CHINESE about the broth, not bad but it can be better and I even explained to the owner how. Owner seems did not take my saying but replied, "oh the chef will be unhappy if I tell him that". I said, "depends on what quality of the food you wanna provide and what level the chef wants to be, sometimes improvement must come with suggestions. (I was not even criticizing even tho I could). then he left and went back to the kitchen. The kitchen door was not even close fully and I can hear him talked loudly to someone inside loudly, "nothing wrong." OMG. To this point, I was absuloted speechless. Just FYI, I was born and raise in China from age 0 to 15, went to Singapore for 7 years then came to the U.S 8 years ago. I spend half of my life, near two decades or so working in the kitchen, professional kitchens includes some michellin star restaurants and ok-high end hotels. But this restaurant, the server, the owner, the food, left me only one thing, leaving a review. Oh the second thing, bad mood~~~~ LOL, with all this Chinese style decor, poster, written languages in chinese, do not make you a Chinese restaurant lol. read more

Family owned restaurant, excellent food and large serving size. Don't let the appearance and location deter you. Fried Rice is a bit bland, white rice with Soy Sauce but that's my only complaint because I like it with some vegetables and a bit more flavor. Hot and Spicy dishes are just that and always my favorites. I go every time I am in town and sample a new dish. Have never been disappointed with any. read more

Food was very good come out hot only drawback is if you share your food, they would charge you a dollar per plate hence the four star rating

This was the second time we tried this place. Being a fan of good Chinese food, we have been looking for a place to go for a long time. Well, this is not the place. Everything we ate tasted the same (old grease). I wish I knew what week they change their grease so I could try it again with fresh oil. I will not be back. Save your money. read more

Very small but long standing Chinese restaurant here in Sevierville. Great food at a great price. Drive through take out

I called in an order for Chong Qing Chicken, Twice-Cooked Pork, and pork Za Jing Mien noodles. When I arrived the food still wasn't ready and I had to wait quite a while, but when I finally got it back to the cabin, it was very tasty. The problem is, with the exception of the Twice-Cooked Pork, it wasn't what I ordered. The "Chong Qing Chicken" they gave me was chicken w/ a spicy sauce and peanuts, water chestnuts, bamboo shoots, and zucchini. The Za Jing Mien noodles were very thin noodles with strips of pork with vegetables in a light sauce, similar to oyster sauce. So, although the food itself was very good, I had to take off a couple stars because it wasn't what I ordered. read more

Friendly staff. Great food! I placed an order over the phone and it was ready for pickup within 15 mins.

Great food, some of the best Chinese food we had. Great service. We will definitely be back!

We found this place years ago and we keep going there. Mostly food to go. We are happy with the quality and value.

I'm from gatlinburg. This is our go to china restaurant. The owner is always very nice and the food is awesome. Never had a problem once. Thank you for your work ethic. read more
