I usually stay away from pho at Thai spots, but my husband ordered it and it was actually really good, with a flavorful broth that surprised us both. My favorite dish of the night was the Panang Curry. I haven't had Thai curry in years because it's been so disappointing in middle TN, but I decided to give this one a shot and I'm so glad I did. It tasted fresh, the sweet coconut milk came through without being heavy, and the chicken was incredibly tender. They don't skimp on meat or portions here - we left full and happy. We'll definitely be back. Sorry I don't have photos. As soon as I saw the food, I could tell it was authentic and got too excited!

I got summer rolls & a small veggie Tom Kha Gai soup. I got everything to go. I went to my iron infusion at Vanderbilt Hendersonville then waited until I was hooked up & alone to eat. When I saw my food I was kinda shocked. $20 for about six bites of summer rolls & five to six tablespoon fulls of soup was disappointing. These rolls are the smallest I've ever seen. There was so much rice paper & so little filling! The soup was not a favorite either as it was extremely sweet. Tom Kha can be sweet, but this was like sugary milk water. There were hardly any veggies in the tiny styrofoam cup as well. All in all, the best part of this experience was the lady who took my order. Everything else could have been avoided & will in the future.

It is an unassuming little shop, with quite a big parking lot in building building, and the indoors is reminiscent of the 80s.

It was quite a hot day, so the spring rolls were wonderful to cool me down, and the peanut sauce was phenomenal! Service was very friendly. They take an hour break at 3 PM every day, so we were mindful about the time we spent there as it was 2:30 when we were seated. They were quick to make our food and everything was fresh!

The best way I can describe the food is that you can truly taste the love in every dish. The staff are incredibly personable, kind, and welcoming.

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.

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 Pad See Ew and Pad Thai are the best I've had anywhere in Middle Tennessee. After years of eating Thai food, I had never tried a Thai beef noodle soup, so I decided to order the Angus Beef Noodle Soup. You guys--it is incredible. It has some similarities to pho, but the rich, deeply flavored beef broth is completely its own thing. We loved it so much that we came back the very next week for more. The portions are generous. We both have healthy appetites and still can't finish an entire noodle dish on our own. The only thing that could make the experience even better would be online or phone ordering. Beyond that, the owners are incredibly kind, and I truly can't say enough good things about this place. The food is outstanding, and I can't wait to go back, especially since they rotate special dishes from time to time.

If you walk into a restaurant at 7pm on a Wednesday night and the place is fully packed and there…read moreare people waiting behind you to be sat, you KNOW you made the right decision to go there. We were greeted nicely by the hostess and waited roughly 5 minutes for a table to open up. A family of five came in right after us and decided to sit at the bar to eat. I knew in my heart that this was the best place to go to for my husband's birthday dinner. We sat on some barstools while we waited, discussing the hockey game playing on the tv behind the bar. I loved the low ambient lighting that spread across the ceiling. Our waitress was nice but she never gave us her name so I unfortunately can't shout her out. She gave us recommendations so I ended up taking one of hers. Now, if you have read my Thai restaurant reviews, you know by now that I judge a Thai restaurant by ordering their Pad Thai the first visit, however, I broke that rule because I just KNEW this place was going to be good. We ordered the Tom Kha soup with chicken, Pad Kee Mao with chicken, I ordered the Khao Soi Gai (it comes with chicken, no substitutions), and one Thai iced tea. You guys. When the Tom Kha soup touched my lips, I was SO excited to get the main course! It was made PERFECTLY. I haven't had true Tom Kha since probably when I lived in California over a decade ago. The Thai tea was strong and delicious, exactly how it should be made. The Khao Soi Gai...that first sip of the curry broth nearly made me go Meg Ryan-mode in the restaurant. If you know, you know. "I'll have what she's having!" Our waitress recommended this dish and I'm so glad I was adventurous and tried something different outside of my "I'll judge you based off of your Pad Thai" attitude. It was perfect and when I say perfect, I didn't even add lime juice to it because I didn't want to mess anything up with the flavor profile. Sure, lime could have added another element to the dish but when I say it was perfect the way it was, it's true. The night at Smiley would have ended perfectly if it weren't for the miserable couple who sat beside us discussing how unhappy they were in their marriage and decided to accept the waitstaff into their broken marriage by being completely rude. But the staff remained professional and kind through it all and I give them HUGE props for that because I was a moment away from telling that wretched couple off. In short, the staff here are wonderful, and the food is memorable, delectable, delicious, perfect...it's HEAVEN. We will DEFINITELY be back to try other menu items!

What I received was only the chicken and no beef or shrimp. When I called to complain the Chinese lady said it's what I ordered when it plainly wasn't. Also, the fried rice was like steamed white rice with no carrots or peas. I was raised that the customer was always right and to fix a problem when one arose. This place did not offer to do anything unless I brought the plate back. I told them I would but we only get 30 minutes for lunch so I had to eat what I got, like it or not. I won't be back to this "Blue Roof" Fortune Village restaurant because it's getting added to my banned list. China One is SO much consistently better!!!

We live in the Ashland…read morecity/pleasant view area and the one Chinese restaurant here was absolutely awful so the next time I ordered Chinese I tried a spot in Springfield. I thought it was this place so today when I wanted some Chinese I called and ordered from here but once I pulled in a realized this wasn't the same place, but was hopefully it would be good. It was not. I'll mention the positives first. I called in my order while leaving Kroger. It was ready by the time I pulled into their parking lot. So it took maybe 3-4 min. The service was friendly and the food came out fast and hot. Unfortunately it was horrible. I ordered the crab angels and the fried wontons. The crab angels were super super salty. Inedibly salty. And very oniony. The fried wontons were on the opposite side of the spectrum where they were pretty bland and flavorless. I ate two of each item hoping that my first impression of them was wrong and trying to convince myself that they weren't as bad as I thought. But they were. I hate wasting food, or money, but I had to throw these away because I just could not eat them. Both were also extremely greasy. I could feel the oil in my arteries and pores. So that was $14 wasted. Maybe other things on their menu are better but I'm not willing to try it again. After eating food from the Ashland city Chinese restaurant I thought it was the worst I've ever had but this place was just as bad or actually worse. I think the place I liked was called china one after searching more following this mix up. So I'll try and remember to go there next time

Why would they have online ordering open if their restaurant is already closed before their hours say that they're closed?! It says they close at 9:30 PM, I ordered my food at 8:30. I'm beyond livid. Next day update: I called them and let them know what happened. They were super nice and apologetic. They made my food I came and picked it up and she gave me a free drink. She was really nice. The food on the other hand is just mildly OK at best. My expectations were already very low because it's Tennessee and it's Gallatin so I wasn't expecting anything different but I definitely would never come back here. Service was great though they're super nice and maybe if I ate this there would've been different. I don't wanna bash this place because everybody's taste buds are different. And I'm also from California. I grew up eating sushi so I have a higher standard of what I declare as good sushi. I did get I think two cooked rolls, I got lovely couple in the best friend role and a vegetable role in the miso soup. Miso soup is OK I've had way worse, but I've also had better, but it's definitely my favorite out of the four items I got. The rolls wouldn't be too bad if they weren't so dry. They just feel so dry and extremely cooked through and the shrimp has a bit of a fishy after taste. They were really nice though.

Let's just say, the expectations I did have... They were met. I expected the fish to not be insanely fresh and I was right. The fish really tasted like nothing. The only thing that I could taste were my salmon skin Handrolls because they were smoked (I hate that smoke flavor). I made do with the smoke flavor though and devoured them because I was hungry. The portion size on the salmon skin hand rolls were pretty generous though so I will give them that!! My husband said his sushi tasted like something he might get from a gas station, but again, kinda to be expected considering where we were. The people working at this spot ALL VERY NICE and I'm sure there are some things (like the hibachi) that are great, we just didn't order those things.
