Default Looking for Decent Chinese Food

Any good Chinese food in the area? I have not been able to find any in TV.

Good luck finding any decent Chinese in The Villages, or any surrounding towns for that matter. If you like Americanized, Panda Express-style Chinese, then you will be satisfied. If looking for something more authentic (think non-sugary, non thick, corn starchy-sauces), then your best bet is the “Chinatown” area in Orlando on Hwy 50. That’s where you’ll find local Asians dining out. Good dim sum there as well.

We also liked them a lot when they first opened. Lately, their quality has declined.

We like Changs on 466 next to NYPD Pizza. Took a long time to find one we liked.

New YorkCity, Boston and Chinatown Orlando any experience we found in The Villages subpar actually Panda Express might be one of the better to try. Seems the village Gourmet experience is burgers and fried chicken fingers which we make at home for a fraction of the prices charged.

Compared to what’s around here, Yummy House in Ocala is pretty good.

Not TV, and not strictly Chinese, but there is a Korean supermarket just outside Orlando; Altamonte Springs I think, that has an Asian food court. Korean, Vietnamese, Thai, and I believe Chinese also though to be honest I can't precisely recall. We've eaten there a couple of times; Vietnamese and Korean, which was good though pricy. No reason to think their other offerings aren't comparable.

I agree with Ichiban in Leesburg but I was told that Koyame sold and will be opening a new restaurant in the future.

We still think Koyame is good and they do have new owners. The previous owners of Koyame are opening a new restaurant near NYPD in the near future.

Yummy House
Mostly Canton Provence cuisine.

Ocala, FL.
Never disappoints.
