Chon Tong (Thai Cafe) Tennessee

✊🏽Baby it’s cold 🥶 outside!!! 🤎This is the best spot for you to tuck into. Let’s get into the flavors, clean atmosphere, charming style and the inviting staff!!! It’s all here. The food 🍲 is divine and delicious. Cooked to order, hot and fresh. Spice for your taste. 🍜We always fall into both red and green curries, egg rolls, basil fried rice, Thai chicken wings and of course the jasmine rice! 10/10/10!!!🍚❄️🩵Win Wednesday and stay Warm!!!🧣🧤♥️✨✨✨

I love this place. It’s a hidden gem for some and a go to for others! By exploring almost their entire menu, I can say that I haven’t had one bad thing. Everything is fresh and made to order, the staff are the friendliest people, the atmosphere is chill, and the overall cleanliness is a 10/10. Highly recommended the Thai wings, Egg Rolls, Dumplings, and Combo Rice!

Tried Fried rice combo with seafood, tom yam soup & iced tea! Awesome taste and perfect combination! Customer service was very friendly and helpful. Well maintained restaurant.

Fast service and hearty portions. Enjoyed mymy pad Thai, level 2 hot. The pho was good until my husband pour the whole chili sauce in it and I almost died lol. The wings were really good especially the fact they were just salted and crispy/tender. Ragoons were ok but enjoyed gyoza Would come back to try the pepper steak, looked good from another table

This is some of the best Thai food in Nashville! Everything is always delicious and very reasonably priced. We like to get curry and Pad Kee Mao with an appetizer of Gyoza. If the food wasn't good enough, the staff are some of the nicest people. They are always extremely friendly and hustling to get everything right for their customers. Highly recommend going here if you are looking for Thai food.

Delightful. Wow, what great Thai. Even if you thought you didn't like Thai, this is the place! Fabulous food & service. Great portions. Usually when you order duck, it's about 2 ounces, these folks put @ least 1/2 a duck! (I don't normally like duck) lol. Changed my mind about that! Wish we were locals, we'd be here VERY frequently. Of course Thai food is super healthy/ good for you also! Great selection on the menu, not just the "standard fare", but stuff that I haven't seen since been in Thailand.

4 ⭐️ - will be my go to Thai place This will be one in my constant rotation for thai food. The place was really clean and service was great. The staff was very attentive and always asking if we needed something and how the food was. Ihad the crispy duck and it was cooked well. Not dry like some duck dishes you get in other places. Seems to be popular as we saw a steady stream of regular customers coming in.

Wow. I’m very impressed with this place. I had just decided I’m done with Thai restaurants in La Vergne, then I find this treasure. The atmosphere is very cozy and intimate. They had nice music going as well. The nice young woman at the counter has a very pleasant demeanor. And not that fake and performative type of attitude, you could tell she is a genuinely sweet person. I came in on a Friday night and placed a to-go order. The wait was very reasonable for fresh food. Now- the food. The chicken wings- I am a bit of a chicken snob and there were some of the best wings I’ve had at a restaurant. The texture was A1. I ate it both with and without sauce and it was great. They gave two sauces, one seemed like a sweet chili sauce and I have no idea what the other was, and admittedly I ignored it at first . I don’t even know how I manage to have left overs but the next day I put that sauce on the chicken and it took it to another level. The chicken was also a respectable portion. Guaranteed staple for every future order. I ordered the sesame chicken. It was pretty good. It tasted like what you’d find at about any Asian restaurant. But I added that other unidentified sauce to it the next day and it got even better. My only critique is more veggies in it would be nice. I also ordered the red curry w/ chicken. It was very good and perfectly seasoned. I’m very happy to have found this place and look forward to giving them more business.

Fantastic little place hidden away toward the back of a strip mall. The sign you see from the road simply says "Thai Food", love it. I tried the Chicken Pad Thai level 5 spicy and the Crispy Spring Rolls. The spring rolls did not disappoint! Super crispy and the dipping sauce was a delicious blend of hot sweet and sour. The Pad Thai was pretty good as well,. It's a dry noodle dish which I love, Saucy Pad Thai isn't right. The flavors were there but the balance wasn't right. Level 5 spicy wasn't spicy enough (yeah, I know this isn't traditionally supposed to be spicy), and there wasn't enough palm or other sugar to offset the sour of the tamarind. I didn't taste ketchup though, so that's a win! The staff is beyond super nice and friendly, you'll want to go back just for them. And well the food too...

Excellent curry, tasty pot stickers, all very yummy. Very fast and pleasant service. Easy to gave a conversation.

The food here is excellent and the service and staff are very kind professional and clean. I recommend this place anytime because the Thai food community is a true blessing and these people bring it with the very best enthusiasm and the best food you could ever imagine! Please support these wonderful restaurants because this is what makes our community great not the terrible chain restaurant that everyone goes to all the time.

Best Thai food I've ever had!! Will definitely be back!! Food is very fresh, and the staff is always very welcoming and friendly!

Hidden Gem! I went to dinner with my Family. Ordered the chicken wings and fried rice. These are possibly the best chicken wings I've ever had in my life. The fried rice was amazing as well. There is actually a secret ingredient on the coating of the wings. Amazing without the sauce. Wish I could give 6 stars.

Talk about a hidden gem tucked away in a corner in LaVergne, TN. You wouldn't even know this place exist. If you want some good authentic Thai food, please run over to Chon Tong Thai Cafe. They have the best chicken wings around. The service and food is always good rather you're dinning in or taking out. It's a small quiet restaurant with owners that cook with love.

Great food very tasty, great value! had the Penang curry full of flavor and fresh. Service was very friendly and fast. I do a carry out.

Located in a small strip center behind O'Reilly auto parts. great flavor and seafood was good! Curry also was tasty - I'll be back!

They have the best pad Thai! I am very picky. Typically Pad Thai can be too sweet, too sticky, too dry, and overpriced. However, it is just right here. I always order seafood and the flavor is consistent everytime.

We love coming here. Blown away. The only problem is that all other Thai food I've had since Chon Tong leave me saying to myself "that was really good, but it wasn't Chon Tong." Kat always takes such great care of us and recommended the Duck Curry to me a while back and it is my absolute favorite. The best Duck that I've ever had and the curry is truly incredible. As I'm writing this review I'm beginning to ponder on how soon I can get back for another meal! Thank you Chon Tong!

We ate here twice while we were visiting family and it was excellent both times. The food was excellent and the couple that own and run the restaurant are very friendly and offer attentive and speedy service. My favorite dishes were the Crispy Tamarind Duck and the best Tom Kha soup I've ever had. Highly recommend!!!

I took a chance on this restaurant solely based on the pictures of the Thai fried wings and it was SUCH a great choice! The wings were crunchy, well seasoned and flavorful! I also got the shrimp pad Thai with medium spice, my family members got the mild Pad Thai and we all enjoyed our food. We ordered ahead for pick up and it was a ghost town on a Saturday evening! Their menu also changed slightly compared to what was here online -- no peanut sauce and no satay. It's such a same how remote this place was because the food was amazing! We will be back for sure. What a hidden gem.

Fresh and yummy! I had the Panang curry, and my partner and I enjoyed the pepper steak. They could use a couple more tables.

I always come here. I love the medium spicy vegetable fried rice and Thai chicken. I keep saying I will try the rest of the menu but I don't. One day I will but those two are great!

The food is delicious! I ordered the combo pho along with gyozas and egg rolls and it was all to die for. It's such an underrated and hidden restaurant with gentle decorations. The menu is not too large, but has all the gems and they meet all my expectations. The service was great and quite speedy - serving me in about 10 minutes with steaming food. 10/10 am going back in like 30 minutes lol.

Went there and had some Teriyaki chicken and it was very delicious and a good portion size. There is a video on YouTube about it called "Hidden Gems: Chon Tong Thai Cafe in La Vergne TN"

Delicious food (the Thai chicken wings in particular) and wonderful service! This is our go-to Thai spot!

Thank goodness for this place! They have been our saving grace! We moved here about 2 years ago from Vegas and we were afraid that we had moved to a food desert!! Luckily we live very near and are adventurous and tried this restaurant! It is our go to Thai! Everything is delicious the staff are delightful the atmosphere is great. The restaurant is incredibly clean and decorated nicely as well. We've tried practically everything on the menu and I recommend it all! The curries are some of the best we have had!

This place is a hidden gem!! The Thai Chicken Wings are some of the best wings I've ever had!! They're so full of flavor and the onions and peppers just add to it! The sticky rice is good too! I wish I could give this place more than five stars because it was perfect! The prices are reasonable, the service was great, the food is delicious. I can't wait to try their whole menu. Lol

I tried Chon Tong on a whim while I was sick (it was the only Thai food I could get delivered) and was very pleasantly surprised! I'm very picky about my Thai and this place was quite good. The gyoza was incredible, it had so much flavor and I love that it wasn't deep fried (why do so many places here insist on deep frying gyoza?!). I ordered two curries - Massaman and Paneng. The Massaman was so creamy & delicious but the Paneng was, by far, my favorite! It had SO much flavor and the spice was perfect. I can't wait to try Chon Tong again soon!

The best Thai food around! I've been here a lot recently and always have a great experience. The food is amazing and the owners are always super nice! I recommend the Spicy Duck and Tom Yum soup.

This is my first time eating Thai food. I decided to go with something basic so I got chicken fried rice. I loved it! It was served with a made in the kitchen Spring Roll that was great. I've tried them at places PF Chang and hated them. The fried rice was delicious and there was plenty of it. A friend went with me and he ordered some kind of reddish orange soup. He specified medium hot on the spice level. He gave me a little and it was really hot. In fact, he was sweating. It was delicious though. All tolled, I will definitely return to Chon Tong in the future. The service and atmosphere was great and the prices were quite moderate.

Very tasty wings!! I get them every time we come to visit! The chicken doesn't taste like any store bought chicken at all! Great service! Sweet owners!

My family just moved here in Tennessee and we came from a culinary state in California - This family owned Thai Restaurant is the best we had here in Nashville, all their food in the menu are so delicious - we go here almost every week - our most fave are their curries and personal favorite is the fried vegie roll. The owner is super nice and accommodating - you should try.

Okay, so service if I could give 10 stars I would. The food was so good, I definitely recommend any of the noodle dishes. For soup I would definitely get the Tom yum it was so good! Definitely a hidden gem

Used to go here all the time when I worked in that area. For the past two years I've been ordering from here off Uber eats a few times a month and they always nail it - even when I add special notes to it. For the Antioch / LaVergne area this is my favorite Thai / Laotian food. Pad Thai, pad kra pao, curries, soups are all great. Sometimes they have crispy duck too which was awesome.

Very fast and very friendly service. That's the uncommon thing with some Thai restaurants is that once you order it takes about 10-15 minutes. Here it is really fast and good quality and decent price.

Food is great. The Thai chicken wings bang. Service is nice and friendly. Highly recommend

This is the best restaurant in the greater Nashville area. Three people run the whole place. Natsumi, the server, always remembers us and that we get additional to-go food. Her personality is charming and familial. The owners, Tong and Gay, are arguably the best one-two-punch of culinary genius in the state of Tennessee. The food is simple, traditional Thai with a little southern influence based on Tong's experiences in America. Disclaimer- do not leave without trying the Thai Chicken Wings. Crispy, crunchy, savory, a little sweet- the best chicken wing I've had the pleasure of eating. I eat here once or twice a week and I order at least one order of wings every trip. You'll love them.

I have eaten here several times and I love and always order curry but last night they blew me away with their Chicken Wings!! Holy wow, do yourself a favor and definitely don't wait on trying them like I did! They were delivered, yes delivered, HOT AND CRISPY! They were packed in a way that kept them as close to be served at the restaurant as possible and they were delicious. Perfect blend of spicy and just a hint of sweet!

I always get Chicken Panang Curry and it is always great!! My husband always picks it up and he tells me the staff is friendly and it is very clean.

My boyfriend and I had the best time eating here! The staff is so friendly and welcoming. They continually checked up on us and made sure our drinks were always full. The food is out of this world. I tried this place out on a whim, and it is now my favorite Thai place in the area. The food came out hot and the flavor was spectacular. Their Thai wings are the best. I recommend them to anyone who comes here. Their pad Thai and red curry was phenomenal as well. I can't wait to try more of their menu items next time.

The Thai wings was the best!! I ordered the crab Rangoon also but they wasn't really good but them wings.....baby. Let's just say I went back the next day.

I loved it ! I ordered for pickup a spicy Thai basil stir fry with a Thai tea. The woman who took my order was so kind. When I arrived it was a cozy little restaurant that looked super neat and clean! I was immediately greeted with a warm welcome and my food was ready for me! It was great food for a great price !!

Love this place the people are always so sweet. The food is banging ! My favorite thing to get is the Thai chicken wings and basil fried rice. Love them even more more because they offer tofu for the non meat eaters.

A friend and I were in the area hiking and worked up an appetite. Both of us being vegetarian we found this place on yelp. The reviews seemed decent, but living in Houston we have some AMAZING Thai places, so I admit I was skeptical. The interior is nothing fancy, a typical hole in the wall kind of place. There was only one lady waiting on the few tables that were occupied. She was very pleasant with us while taking orders. We opted for the papaya salad, tofu green curry with extra veggies and another tofu dish off the menu. Wow was I surprised!! Everything was very fresh, just the right spice and so flavorful! I was really blown away by how good it was. I wouldn't hesitate to come back here for any of the dishes we had! Now that I'm being reminded of how good it was, I wish I was back in the area - I'd go there now!

Great service and food at a very reasonable price! I got the seafood combo pad thai and was amazed at the quality and quantity of seafood I received. My boyfriend got the crispy duck curry and couldn't stop raving about it. The employees were attentive and we left happy and full with leftovers!

Authentic. Home grown. Fresh and tasty. This is a great place. Can't wait till they can get some more seating inside and then you can go for dinner and BYOb. Definitely go.

Good chicken wings. They are not traditional wings. They have a great flavor, size, and crunch. The chow mein noodles are really tasty as well. I would definitely go again.

Amazing food! We had the duck curry, gyoza, spring rolls, and pork belly rice. Server was incredibly attentive.

Today was grand reopening for the new owner. They still getting the hang of everything so the service was a little slow but everyone there was so nice. And I was hanging out with a friend that went to go help out so I didnt mind waiting. The food was worth the wait. Definitely will go back with my boyfriend bc he loves him some thai/laos food. Go check them out and give them a try.

The food is awesome! Some of the best wings in town. It's a perfect match to the fried rice.

Amazing food, decent price, and the staff are extremely nice. My fav is the red curry

Excellent fresh food every time! Owners/staff always friendly. I highly recommend!! The BEST spring rolls

Red Curry is delicious. Nice portion size. Choose your spice level. Friendly service at pickup.

Food is great and customer service, the wings are some of the best I've had. This place is a hidden gem

Too much soy sauce and sweet taste. Not impressed with the taste of the food. Ambience and service is good.

Love the Thai Wings and the pad sew and service is always great and the inside is really relaxed and nice

My 2nd 5 star review because these folks care about their customers and the food the make for us. Lots of other restaurants should take notes from the owners of this restaurant. Excellent in all categories!
