The restaurant scene here offers delectable options for all your favorite dishes. Here are some of our top picks for Asian restaurants in the area.
China 88
Located in Citrus Park Town Center, China 88 is famous for their Bourbon Chicken. It’s a local favorite for a reason! They also carry classic dishes like Lo Mein, Orange Chicken, Fried Rice, and Spring Rolls. If you want something special, try their Crab Rangoon – fried wontons filled with tasty crab and cream cheese. And if you’re eating keto, order up a meat entrée with their mixed vegetable plate. It’s a perfect takeout treat, no matter your dietary needs.
China Dragon
Head over to Gunn Highway for takeout from China Dragon, a local favorite thanks to its delicious, classic menu and fast service. Their Hot & Sour Soup and Wonton Soup are some of the best in the area, and regulars particularly love their Sesame Chicken and Beef & Broccoli. Don’t forget an order of egg rolls – they’re the perfect indulgent side for any main dish.
China Star
Be sure you’re ready to make some serious decisions before you call in an order to China Star – because their menu is epic. Browse all the categories you could want, including moo shu, sweet and sour, lo mein, egg foo young, chop suey, and fried rice, and order any variation of their dishes with whatever meat option you choose (or none at all). And speaking of meat, you’ll have plenty of options – chicken, pork, beef, or seafood – in their savory entrées, such as Shrimp with Lobster Sauce, Szechuan Beef, Chicken with Garlic Sauce, or Mongolian Pork.
China Wok
Everyone loves indulgent Chinese food, and China Wok certainly delivers on all the typical favorites. But they’re also known for their low-calorie options, including a variety of steamed meats and vegetables. Their Chef’s Special items include Hot & Spicy Shrimp, Honey Chicken, and a seafood combo plate. Not only that, but you could make a meal out of their appetizers, from steamed dumplings to spring rolls.
