Amazing vegetarian options with beautiful views of so much variety of orchids!Vegetarian options: Both fake meat and tofu varieties, clearly informed us when soup arrived that it was vegetarian.

Not very flavorful, refried rice colored with soy and on speck of veg, and egg. The eggplant w/hot garlic sauce had a vinagre flavor and no spice nor garlic. Will never go again. The only nice thing were the orchids.

Only 4 wontons in an order of wonton soup in one quart makes this a very expensive and disappointing soup. I will not order it again from Chef Li.

Super great food and the owner is one of the nicest guys Ive ever met in my life. It's so clean and beautiful inside too!

The food is good. But it's 36 dollars for a small chicken salad and one order of Mongolian beef.

A typical Americanized Chinese food place. What is not typical is that there are many beautiful orchid plants displayed and they are also for sale. Of course they are not cheap compared to those in big box stores.

Food is bland Chef lis special beef is dry and bland Mushu pork is watered down No flavor to chicken fried rice. Owners are very rude on the phone. Asked for extra plum sauce they did not include it. 60.00 dinner what a waste!! This place should be shut down

My mom chose Chef Li for her birthday dinner and the staff and owner so kind! And they gave my mom a Chocolate bear. They put effort into their presentation. I recommend ordering egg foo young (off menu) and choose chicken as your protein. The chicken was still moist and tender (unlike some places).

This is our go-to. Potstickers are so plump and delicious. So is the veggie mu-shu! The wait staff are very attentive and kind. And who doesn't like to sit in a room filled with colorful orchids?! I have bought some of the orchids in the past and they were wonderful.

We have been searching for a good Chinese restaurant for years. Finally found it! Great service, super clean and the food is fantastic! There was no wait, the service was fast and attentive. They earned 5 stars. Will definitely be back.
