Top Best Chinese Restaurants in Apopka

"The weekend dim sum service at this Hong Kong-style eatery sees carts stacked with bamboo and metal steamer baskets rolling out foods covering seemingly every taste and texture combination. Just some of the delights: pork and shrimp siu mai dumplings, chicken feet with black bean sauce, pan-fried turnip cakes, steamed egg custard buns and beef cheong fun. Offered Saturdays and Sundays from 11 a.m."

"The Lunar New Year celebration begins Friday when the Year of the Dog is ushered in. Dog years are my favorites, even though they seem longer than the others. Sometimes called Chinese New Year, the event is celebrated by several Asian countries."

"Some new friends, new to town, invited us to join them for Chinese food, but, naturally, asked me to select the restaurant. Based on its location, and the fact that it had been years since I reviewed it, favorably, I chose Ming’s Bistro in the Mills 50 district. Why, right there on the front window was a banner with a quote and my name."

"Located at 1212 Woodward Street, Ming’s Bistro doesn’t look like much, ambience-wise. But it is one of the restaurants that several people swear by, especially for their Spicy Chicken Feet. The dim sums are hot and delicious, served as they are ready."

"The young man who was waiting to take my order at Chef Wang's Kitchen pointed helpfully (if not a little impatiently) at one of the pictured menu items. "Foreigners seem to like that one," he offered. To understand the level of authenticity, or at least a level that rises above many westernized Chinese restaurants, you need to know that when he said foreigners he was referring to Americans."

"They come for the xiaolongbao and pan-fried pork buns, then come again for the noodles, soups, and chopped boiled chicken at this West Colonial Drive hotspot. The fare is simple Shanghainese, and the menu is as focused as it gets. Be wary when biting into the soup dumplings – one wrong bite can lead to an uncontrollable spurt."

"Sure, Maoz is a chain, but don’t let that discourage you from grabbing a bite from this fast-service vegetarian restaurant. The first Maoz opened in Amsterdam in 1991, so they have had over 20 years of experience to perfect the palate-pleasing plates. Known around the country and Europe for some of the best falafel, diners can choose falafel, salad, rice or hummus bowls and customize their toppings."

"This cozy little plant-based café must be onto something because it’s always crowded. Chelsie and Jamie Savage spent years traveling the country tasting plant-based food and brought their finds to the Mills 50 District where they are winning over the hearts, and stomachs, of the community. The Sanctum serves vegetarian in addition to vegan fare, so as long as you are fine with a shared kitchen, you won’t be disappointed, especially because the ingredients are all GMO-free and mostly organic."

"Editor's Note: There's no photo available at the time of writing. When discussions about health food comes up, the usual descriptions that resonate are tasteless and bland. But at The Sanctum cafe, the owners aim to dispel such things."

"I tried CFS this morning and ordered a decaf cafe con leche. I went on my merry way and starting sipping it in the car. I basically had warm milk witho..."

"Meatballs: so simple, a small, round hunks of deliciousness from your Nonna's kitchen, laden with garlic, spices, just the right amount of fat. Top 'em with sauce or cheese or both. Lay them gently onto a bed of pasta or polenta."
