Oh man this was delicious! So many complex flavors and it looked perfect, even in takeout containers. The egg rolls were the size of a newborn baby and cannot be missed, and the hot mustard is legitimate hot mustard. Can’t wait to try the rest of the menu.

I ate at this place years ago when it first opened and it was bad. The food has improved some and it’s edible but my issue is that it’s still not great, especially for the price point. If you want really delicious authentic Chinese food at a great price go to lucky bamboo.

TKO is comfort food for me. I love getting takeout after a long trip out of state, or when I just need a reliably good meal. It can be expensive and it’s not traditional Chinese (not sure why everyone’s reviews are so stuck up about that part.) Always get the sweet and sour chicken, any special veggie sides, and the kids buttered noodles are so delicious as a palate cleanser – not what it’s meant for but i love em.

Got food delivered sweet and sour chicken and tko chicken. Both were very heavy on vinegar. So heavy that I had to toss it and dive in the freezer for something else. Will not be a repeat customer.

This place is consistently delicious. The chicken and rice dishes are the best. My favorite takeout on the east side.

You can’t go wrong with the short inventive menu at TKO. The menu changes often (sometimes daily) based on what is fresh and available.

Limited menu, $15 for a noodle dish with no protein (tofu $4 extra), and it was ok. For $20 per person you can do a lot better.

Can’t go wrong with taco rice, especially when it’s topped with Doritos. This was the best place I’ve eaten out in a long while.

Online showed they would be open on Dec 30th (Fri) night. Showed up @ 730pm. Closed. Met (multiple) strangers walking up to the door with us just as disappointed they were closed with NO notice except all their lights off walking up to their door – update your hours online like a legit business if you’re gonna be closed – as a Nashville native, can’t imagine being a visitor Uber’ing to your location only to have to Uber somewhere else.
