Chen You Restaurant

Wow!! Decided to try this place due to the good reviews and I must say the food here is amaaaaazing!! While waiting for our food to be prepared , I noticed quite a few people placing orders so I knew we were in for a treat. Well, you get huge portions, freshly cooked and full of flavor Chinese food. It's awesome! The triple delight in garlic sauce is a winner along with the Szechuan Beef. For appetizers we had the crab rangoon which was a definite winner served with their best tasting sweet and sour dipping sauce along with the shrimp egg rolls. That sweet and sour sauce is fire. I've had lots of Chinese food in Volusia county and this little gem is 💯 the best we've had!! Looks like a hole in the wall but looks are deceiving you must try this place if you haven't already. Thank you for the amazing service and food we will be back soon 👌😋😋👌

The people who run this are amongst some of the kindest restaurant owners I’ve met in Daytona. Finding genuinely delicious and well-priced food at restaurants is growing harder and harder and this is a restaurant that never does anything BUT exceed my expectations. The prices are super good given the huge portions I’ve received. I don’t typically care for Chinese food but Chen You does it differently in the best way possible. It’s to the point that they seem to have my voice recognized because of the amount of times I’ve come here. I’ve never liked chicken fried rice and the chicken fried rice here is not only tolerable but delicious. The establishment is always very clean compared to others as well. I tried the sweet and sour chicken last week and that was amazingly tasty and also had a large portion relative to the price. Yesterday I tried the beef lo mein and I’m back again today to get a second helping plus some other food for my friends. Again: great value, great food, great people. These are the kind of mom and pop shops/restaurants I want to support and will continue to support in the future.

I always say you gotta go to the hood to find a decent place to eat and I am always right. CASH ONLY and TAKE OUT spot with large portions of food for cheap. Service is fast and good. The food is pretty good and nothing was dripping in the bad like other Chinese restaurant places. Cool spot 😎

I had higher hopes with this place having more stars and better reviews then the other places near us. I will never go here again after trying this place. Ordered four lunch specials (2 generals, 1 orange chicken and 1 chicken lo mein) , crab Rangoon and soup. There is practically no meat in the specials and barely any wontons in the soup yet we were charged $50! It costs us less to go out to eat at Denny's or apple bees/chili's then it did for these "specials" and my orange chicken they even wrote "orange" on the box yet they all look exactly same and taste like general. Sticking with my regular Chinese place from now on because these portions and prices do not match and are not worth it!

Not at all what I expected for highly rated (4.4 avg) restaurant. Staff was very polite, but Food is Average at best. No seating, cash only, next a rough convenience store with a less than welcoming crowd hanging around.
