Yums was recommended to me and the food was phenomenal!!! I’ll definitely be going back and telling everybody. Yums was way yummy!!
This is hands down one of the best Chinese restaurants I’ve been to! The flavors were rich and authentic — just like real home cooking, it was absolutely amazing. The staff were so friendly, and the service was quick. I’ll definitely be coming back for more!
Updating my review below since it’s been a couple yrs. Prices are up a little but still great value (lunch special 6.95 from 6.45). Today the wife and I got the All Day specials for 7.75. She got beef and mushroom I got the triple delight. Both very good. It is a good portion for lunch or dinner. Both had good portions of meat and veggies. The service is fast too otherwise we wouldn’t be able to come here for lunch. Whenever I have a dental appointment around lunch I try to get my Chinese fix here. Came here for lunch today. Lunch special is great. Wife had sweet and Sour Chicken and I had the Hunan chicken. I am a big eater and it was a great portion for lunch and especially the price (6.45). Comes with chicken fried rice but you can substitute white rice which my wife did. We both were very happy with our food. Both had plenty of chicken. If I lived closer I would come here more often but the 3 or so times I’ve been here I am always impressed. My wife comes her for lunch often. Anyway highly recommend.
The best Chinese food that I’ve had on Brevard county since I moved here 3 years ago! Thank you!
The son cooked me a lunch special of sesame chicken with fried rice. It was the best dish I’ve ever gotten from here and one of the best Chinese dishes I’ve ever had. The tofu was well seasoned and lightly charred with green onions adding fragrance to the dish. He nailed it.
I know my picture was taken after I combined everything. I’m here to tell you looks can be deceiving. This is the most delicious, close to authentic Asian dish I’ve had in a long time. Wonton soup was wonderful. Bourbon chicken lunch comes was delicious. Will definitely order from here again.
A Hidden Gem for Authentic Chinese Cuisine I can’t say enough good things about this restaurant! From the moment we walked in, we were greeted with warm hospitality and an inviting atmosphere. The food was absolutely incredible—fresh, flavorful, and perfectly seasoned. Every dish we tried, from the dumplings to the sizzling stir-fry, was bursting with authentic flavors. The portions were generous, and the prices were very reasonable for the quality of the food. One of the best togo restaurants in merit island! If you’re looking for delicious, authentic Chinese food in a cozy setting, this is the place to go. I’ll definitely be coming back!
Great for a quick meal. I get sweet & sour pork or chicken w/ fried rice. Half dozen trips Haven’t had a negative experience yet. Value & flavor for the price.
