    Tako Cheena serves very flavorful Asian infused Tex-Mex cuisine. The venue has a walk up window for ordering and plenty of covered outdoor seating. The cashier was unremarkable and the food came fairly quickly. I ordered 3 tacos: Thai peanut Indian, Indian yellow curry chicken, and Mary's Greek little lamb. The food was tasty and light. Only downside was that several items on the menu wasn't available to order. This restaurant is a great stop after a night on the Mills50 strip.

    I totally judged TaKo Cheena. The taco was a bit priced 1 at 5 something but the Asian beef one I got was very well marinated/cooked and together with the cabbage and veggies hooked it up nicely. I can see myself returning.

    When you arrive, it takes you a minute to get situated. Do I eat inside? Outside? The menu and where you order are on the north side of the building. HINT: look for the yellow pedal that has sign saying order here! All I can tell you is when the employee opened the window, the aroma that came out was intense. My mouth watered and I kind of went crazy ordering: - Yuca Fries - Angry Tater Tots with Pernil - Mary had had Greek Gyro!!! Whoa!!! You gotta come here!!!!

    My husband and I loved this place. It's an amazing fusion taco joint that is open late at night. We tried the Thai peanut taco that had great texture and taste, and the Hawaiian taco, which was very soft and liquidly. Our favorite was La Reina, which was thick and juicy and oh my God it's amazing. Each one was completely different and delicious. When you go up and order, you have to step on the pedal light thing under the window to get their attention . Once you get their attention, everything else is smooth and easy and they are very friendly. The seating area is completely outdoors . They do have a sink in the middle for you to wash your hands after you eat. I don't know. They have a restroom there. Parking is free and out front, but sometimes it gets so busy you have to park on the street. Be aware of the parking signs.

    This place has been on my list to try and I'm glad I went. I loved the look of the place and thought it was a cute setup up. There was ample seating outside and free water and napkins immediately available. We received our food quickly after ordering. I got the Asian braised beef taco and the Pernil Asado taco and both were absolutely delicious. My favorite out of the two was the Asian braised beef one as it was very juicy and tasty. The yuca fries were fried to perfect and I love the sauce it came with.

    I went with my colleague today for lunch. It's was a driving distance from Winter Park, so we arrived about 12pm. We were able to park easily and it looked empty as well. However, there was an attendant and they were just opening. I ordered the 3 pack in which I selected the Indian Yellow Curry Chicken Taco, The Greek Lil Lamb Taco, and the Tom Yum Shrimp Taco. It was about 17 dollars after tips. We waited outside as the counter and seating were outdoors. It did take a while did get our tacos, but it was delivered directly to our table. We took it back to our office. I must say the wait was well worth it. For the Indian Yellow Curry Taco, the chicken was tender and the yellow curry dust made it flavorful without any heat needed. The cabbage and cilantro made it filling. There was ample amount of lamb gyro in the Lil Lamb Taco, and it a had a slightly gamey flavor. I enjoyed the tzatziki sauce inside. I did see scallions, but not tomatoes.. The Tom Yum Shrimp Taco had 4 plump big shrimp that were amazing. The sauce and slaw inside it were good too. I did pay a small premium charge for it, but it was worth it. The tacos were quite filling for a nice lunch. The attendant was nice and friendly. It looked like they prepare it fresh, so it does take some time to get our meal. However it was quite delicious and well worth the wait. It looks like they open in the afternoon until quite late, so if you want a very late snack, you can even arrive at midnight and get it. It is a bit pricey for a counter service, but the quality makes this a great choice. I will definitely go there again for a nice lunch not too far from my workplace.

    This place always hits late night and I love how quick the services they do not have indoor seating, an outdoor is usually pretty crowded, but the crowd moves quickly. I would suggest that if you're coming, be prepared to get your food to go, but if a bench opens up, have a seat, the menu varies and they offer lots of options but I personally love the Yucca fries as one of the gems, I've never had something from here that I wasn't impressed with so it's really hard to narrow it down. This is definitely something you should try.

    TaKo Cheena is always that late night spot that hits right after leaving the bars on Mills. Anytime I'm hopping around Mills this is always my go to because the location is near everything, and the ambiance outside really give you that city Chinatown Cali vibes. There's also a DJ inside the food truck posted there that is always playing the jams. They have great Tako specials and let me say, they pack it up in the taco. The flavors are so on point. I had the Hawaiian Chicken and Pork Belly tacos and they did not disappoint. They come and bring the food out to you so you can chill and relax after a long night out. They made sure my tables were clean and comfortable for us to enjoy and came back to the table to make sure if we needed anything. It will continue to be one of my late night spots

    SERVICE: 3 FOOD QUALITY: 5 DRINK QUALITY: N/A ORDER TIME: 5 AESTHETICS: 3 NOISE LEVEL: 5 MENU SELECTION: 5 OVERALL EXPERIENCE: 4.33 We had to try this spot since we heard so many friends talking about it. Our first impression was Asian street market meets food truck. It looked as though they were once a truck who upgraded to a pop up window with outdoor seating in the mills 50 area. We also learned they are one of only a handful of places you can get a quality meal late night. Sadly most of the tables were dirty and trash cans full which is not good when you have limited customer service since it's all self serve. They have a decent menu with lots of options of asian style tacos, burritos and a good selection of sides. I ordered the 3 taco deal with brisket, Korean bbq and the asado taco. The tacos were delicious and super flavorful. Not a typical taco considering the portion of meat they stuff into it. It was quite the surprise and delightful. Overall, we were overly impressed with the food and how flavorful it was. Definitely worth a stop if you're craving Asian food or tacos. I can definitely see myself making this a frequent visit/doordash, especially late at nights when I know my only options are fast food.

    Tako Cheena is a Mexican/Asian fusion outdoor restaurant located right in the heart of Mills 50. From the outside it looks like a food-truck meets restaurant. As soon as you walk up to the window, press your foot on the yellow pedal which will be next to your right foot and someone comes to the window to take your order. then you take a seat at one of the umbrella covered tables and someone brings your order to you. If you choose to dine there, this is where you'll eat. No indoor seating. Now for the menu. I'd say that If this is your first time visiting, try the 3 taco combo so you can try a bit of everything. The portions look small but you will get full. The Korean burrito is one of my favorites here and it is quite large . Just think of the best bulgogi you've ever had stuffed inside a gigantic tortilla wrap. So good! Order that! My most recent visit here, we ordered the banh mi and Japa dogs ole American belly buster style with a side of yuca fries and ginger apple empanadas. We left satisfied but not too full. Tako Cheena is one of those places that will cure your Asian /mexican food fix or tithe you over if you've had too much to drink. I believe they're still open til 4am. Not too sure about that. I usually come in the afternoon to enjoy the sun.

    I love love love this place...for real...LOVE. The flavors are amazing...sometimes unexpected...but an absolute treat for your taste buds! Best food to eat anytime...but hands down wins the late night eats award...and such a chill atmosphere. Also...the owner, Eduardo, is a delight...truly present and taking an active role in making sure his guests are happy.

    Danielle J.

    I mean, as a late night snack option I would definitely recommend. Unfortunately many of the menu items weren't available for some reason so we landed on the Korean beef. My husband didn't really like it, he said the beef was too chewy and the taco didn't have much flavor. I must be easier to please because I enjoyed it just fine. Also the yucca fries were fresh and tasty. It stays pretty busy if you're here late and there's not a ton of seating.

    Lindsey U.

    Soooo good I immediately want to go back!! The lamb gyro taco was probably my fav, but the Korean beef and pernil tacos were amazing too. The lady said they were like 2 bites big but honestly they were so stuffed it was more like 10 (pleasant surprise)

    I have been wanting to stop by DOMU for a while now and I am so happy that I finally made it…read more Everyone raves about it so much and I just knew that it was going to live up to the hype and after going it definitely did. The service was top-notch. The restaurant itself is super cute and had a very warm ambiance (also pretty casual which was nice!). And the food... y'all I can see why everyone hypes this place up because it really is PHENOMENAL. The Richie Rich ramen is the best Ramen I have ever had. The broth was delicious. The meat was cooked to perfection and I was so happy to have leftovers for the next day. The wings were the best wings I've had in a very long time or probably even ever lol (no exaggeration because if you try them, you'll totally understand and agree with me). I truly can't wait to go back and try more things from the menu!

    Wow wow wow this was everything I expected and more!…read more Domu has been on my list for a while and I don't know why it took me so long to finally get here. My friends and I dined in on Saturday night and showed up at 7PM to a two hour wait. Unfortunate, but so worth it. We headed upstairs to the neighborhood bar and got an appetizer and a drink while we waited. We only ended up having to wait maybe an hour and a half for our table at Domu. The service was insanely quick and immediately after ordering our first appetizer came within five minutes. They really know what they're doing here. Whoever was on the aux this evening, 10 out of 10. The music was amazing and the vibes of the restaurant were immaculate. We ordered the cheezus, their signature wings, and the patatas bravas. I understand why they are the best way in Orlando! They were crispy and sweet and flavorful. The potatoes were delicious and the sauce that came with it paired perfectly. I believe it was topped with a crispy quinoa, which was a really nice touch. I can't really do cheese so I didn't try the cheezus, but my friends loved it and said it was delicious. Our server gave me a rundown of his favorite chicken ramens and I ended up choosing the yuzu shoyu ramen. It was nice and full of citrus. I love the eggs that come with the ramen, and he very kindly brought out another egg for me as well as a brûlée egg. I've never tried a Brulé egg in my life and it was so interesting and delicious! Basically a crème brûlée egg!! 10s across the board. I can't wait to come back for more.

My bartender recognized me quickly, and welcomed me. After telling him about my injury, I decided to enjoy the smoked old fashioned. It was the perfect drink for me as it gave the right amount of buzz while having the smokey flavor. Plus, my bartender was so nice to give me an extra shot of what looked like to be burboun. It was so strong that I went to happyland afterwards. For my entree, I decided to try something new and went with the lobster roll. I was so happy that I did. Even though it was a small roll, it had ample amount of sweet and succulent lobster in a warm buttery bun. I savored every bite as it was as good as a high quality seafood restaurant. I was very surprised and impressed. For dessert, they had my favorite flavor of ice cream (ube), so I couldn't skip it. It had the right flavor and just perfect sweetness for me. It was the best meal at a restaurant that I had for a while. The service was amazing and the vibe was perfect. I sat at the bar with other great people. I am so sorry that I forgot my bartender's name, but he is so awesome. It's the gentleman with the earrings. Really, all of the bartenders are great, but he is always the one who makes my day very special! When it was time to pay, I was stunned that I was only charged for the lobster roll, and everything else was comped for me. Let's just say I gave a bit more extra for tip. I love Domu so much, and now I have another great entree to love. I wish they participated in magical dining, but still the prices are great for the quality you get. I plan on keeping on eating here when I need some great Japanese comfort food in the Dr Phillips area. Overall: A+

My Overall Rating - 2 Stars (Atmosphere, Food) Atmosphere - Seito Sushi Sand Lake is a beautiful restaurant. My first impression was great, as the modern décor and dark lighting gave it a very nice date night feeling. There is a long sushi bar with chill lighting and sushi chefs. There are square booths perfect for groups. And large, round orbital lights hang from the ceiling. This is a cool place. 1 Star. Service - While my first impression started great, it changed when I asked out server what I should order (I'm here as a tourist). He said their traditional items were great, and when I asked what they had that was traditional, he said the California roll. Uhh.... No Stars. Food - The sushi is very good, but you're in a resort area so it's very expensive. Dishes that were great and memorable: Beef carpaccio - the soft, tender beef was the highlight, but the real gem of this dish was the fried wonton chip that added great crunch and a little salt. The scallion tuna nigiri from the tuna tower (order this for your IG feed). And finally, the Hamachi crudo was a texture playground (Soft, crunchy, tangy, salty). My only other reservation was that it was very expensive. Then again, you get what you pay for. 1 Star. Will I Return? - No. I'm sorry, I can't return to a restaurant when my server's idea of traditional sushi is a California roll. Honestly, Seito Sushi is a very cool restaurant with a great menu. Just remember you're in a resort area so it can get pricey. No Stars.
