There's this Chinese spot we tried recently that blew us away. The peanut chicken is out of this world and keeps us coming back for more. The flavors are on point and the service is quick, making it a top pick for a tasty meal.

Reasonable fresh and big portions, their fried rice is outstanding.

SWILL ALERT!!!!!
Yum's Chinese Restaurant, 1850 N. Courtenay Pkwy., Merritt Island, FL. 32953
1 Star
When we started BBDO over 5 years ago, I made a conscious decision not to review Chinese restaurants, not due to xenophobia or any such nonsense, but solely due to the fact that they all server basically the same Anglo-influenced Chinese fare. Then we realized execution could play a factor here and allow a separation if I used a baseline. After a survey of several thousand (thank you one and all) Big Boy Dining Out readers, the dishes chosen are General Tso's Chicken, steamed dumplings and the standard egg rolls.
Entering the place I was immediately overcome with a dismal vibe. It was clean and neat and everything it just didn't give off a very happy atmosphere. Coco is our moderately charming fí¹wí¹yuí n although I don't think she spoke any English at all, which just pointing out here, would be helpful in the service industry in a country where the overwhelming majority of the populace speak it.
At this point, I would start peppering this review with a fair amount of charentisimistic phrases, but that would hinder our BBDO policy of calling it like it is. The General Tso Chicken, which was invented in California, must have been left over from the laying of the transcontinental railroad as it had the consistency of the gizzard and tasted excruciatingly bad. The meat was impossible to chew without the aid of mechanized jaws and it seemed to be drenched in maple syrup.
The dumplings were just like the dumplings I have consumed many times in the past. They were steamed and contained a mix of meat and veggies. The egg roll was 2 instead of 4 inches long. Other than that, it tasted like the millions of egg rolls I've had in my lifetime. The accompanying sauces for both the dumplings and egg roll were as expected. Not freshly made, but tasty enough.
As I was paying my bill, I took a passing glance at the owner who poured over a checkbook with a very unsightly look on his face.
The Big Boy says, "With over 100 Chinese restaurants in Brevard County, hopefully, the checkbook perusal means this dump is going out of business. Don't. Just don't"
