Zom Hee Chinese Restaurant: Authentic Chinese Cuisine in Seminole, FL

I grew up eating Chinese food at an "old school" Chinese place just like this, the decor never changed and 3 generations of our family loved their food...moving to FL, I couldn't find decent Chinese food, but Zum Hee was recommended. The first night we visited it was awesome, we have family visiting snd the whole experience was nostalgic....and everything we got Mongolian beef, Chicken Chow Mein and General tsos was good. Egg rolls were decent, service was great. My husband and I decided to go again. He got General Tso and it was good, but I got sweet and sour chicken. I was really disappointed, how do you mess up a classic. I had big pieces of breading laying all over and then slices of chicken breast. I asked for something else, the owner/manager was very kind and tried to explain but really didn't make a lot of sense to me. He did bring me pepper steak that was thankfully good, a bit salty, must be eaten with rice for sure, but steak was tender. The server told us when we paid that I need to order the chicken pieces like General tso otherwise it comes "extra crispy" the risk with that is the batter comes apart from the chicken. So, not a dish I would order again. The soup was good, the fried rice was average. When you have had egg rolls twice the size of theirs (Hong Kong Inn, Indianapolis, owners died, now closed) you're never satisfied with egg rolls from anywhere. I usually don't bother ordering them anywhere. All in all, we will be back...it's the best chinese in Pinellas Co so far.

Great food. Very friendly. Lunch combos are $15ish and come with egg roll, chicken fried rice and choice of soup. The decor is so classic. Absolutely the best around

I e been coming here for years each time I visit family in Florida. I get the general tso chicken and it’s great. Sweet and spicy sauce, and crispy chicken. I wish they made it spicier, I always ask for extra hot, and it isn’t. I had a drink called Confucius itch and it was refreshing. Zom Hee has been in buisness nearly 50 years and is not going anywhere.

It’s like going back in time when Chinese restaurants gave you free tea with a teapot and always had a fish tank. We got take out and the man that helped us was so kind and friendly. The decor is dated, but let’s keep it that way. It’s nostalgic & special. The food was great, and the veggies were fresh. Prob the best Asian food I had in the area when I visited. Skip the Thai spots and go here.

Delicious, reasonable prices, friendly service and great owner.

Great staff and atmosphere. This is the closest fried rice I've had to the north east in Florida. The drink prices are great. The lobster sauce is not good but plenty restaurants have issues with it. They have their own take on chicken wings. I love the vibe.

My family and I researched for the best Chinese food in the area before going on vacation and Zom Hee was most recommended. They did not disappoint! The food was phenomenal, exactly what we were hoping for. The service was fantastic. They were very attentive but not too in your face and the atmosphere was perfect. We will definitely be returning next year when we come back to the beach.

Love this place. The food is fantastic, the decor is nostalgic but what really makes this place special the owner and staff. Super nice folks, will take reasonable steps to accommodate customers needs and just own right friendly, polite and always smiling, and that's just in the bar area!
