This is a great list. I recently moved to Orlando from Fort Wayne and found the food to be excellent out here.

Ah, too bad. Thanks for letting me know. I don’t get over to Tampa much any more. I did just recently, though, and stumbled upon a new, really good Indian buffet way down on 56th St. Going to write it up soon: MAYURI’s Indian Restaurant.

I think Cafe Don Jose on 56th St, Tampa, closed and/or sold out.

YUMMY HOUSE, Waters just East of Armenia, Chinese like I have never tasted before. The whole menu is great, good soups, pot dishes, noodles and rice, great ducks and chickens a la chinois. Alway full of Asian customers. Order seafood hot and sour soup, or seaweed and tofu soup.

For authentic mexican tacos, try Taqueria El Maguey at 4327 66th Street North. The lengua and barbacoa are very good as is the tortilla soup. They also make the best guacamole in town.

Hey, thanks for the tips! I’ll try those soon. 9 Bangkok is excellent, for sure. I’ll check out Punjab soon…!!!

Here are some of my recommendations:

Chinese: Ivory Mandarin Bistro in Dunedin on Main Street. They also have a separate Chinese menu for the adventurous, you have to ask for it specifically and I think it’s written in Chinese. The pepper fried squid and taro with pork fatback is to die for.
Thai: 9 Bangkok on Central Avenue.
Pizza: Yes, Gianni’s is delicious.
Indian: Taste of Punjab on Park Boulevard.

Great list but if you are looking for a Pizza, Giannis in St Pete. I don’t know if you have tried the Italian Margherita Pizza but it would hold its own against NYC pizza and yes, I have lived in NYC – the cheesesteaks are also good

Also Yummys in Gulfport has great hotdogs (all types from chicago to slaw) and the food is better than decent

Jim, thanks for the tip. That sounds delicious–love the idea of fried green tomatoes and bleu cheese together. Never have heard of that combination before.

The Lucky Dill Deli in Palm Harbor at Alt 19 and Alderman Rd (as best I recall) has the absolutely best burger I have ever had in my life! BIG. I had the one topped with fried green tomatoes and bleu cheese I think. OUT of this WORLD! And I think it was only 6 or 7 bucks and came with homemade fries!!
