The Best Chinese Food in Nashville

"Self-described as “Chinese food adjacent,” TKO brings all the bold, flavorful ingredients of the genre to Inglewood in its inventive dishes, many of which happen to be vegan and gluten-free. Orange chicken is available as chunks of chicken thighs or crispy soy protein bathed in sweet and tangy orange sauce, while mushroom lo-mein is an umami-packed dish of Mr. Aaron’s noodles tossed with garlic and black bean sauce. Don’t skip the oversized vegetable eggroll that’s served with housemade Polynesian sauce and large enough to share. Grab friends and drop in for a plate of roasted garlic rice and one of the team’s creative cocktails in a roomy, minimalist dining room." - Ellen Fort, Eater Staff
