Thank goodness this place exists. This is your classic Chinese-American take out joint and the food is simply delicious. We ordered two dinner specials and a crab rangoon app - generous portions, hot, fresh, and tasty. Specifically, there is an element of “wok hay” (a Cantonese phrase denoting smoky aroma and flavor) present in the cooking that makes it 5 stars for me.
Don’t expect any level of “service”; that’s not the point here. This is a mom and pop shop operated by weary food industry veterans. Just pick up your plate, quit yapping, and enjoy what you ordered because you won’t regret it.
Friend chiming in: Regarding the service, the woman is lovely. You get everything you need and neither more or less, perfect in my opinion.
Parking: Small parking lot but easy to navigate

Been my favorite Chinese restaurant for the past 7 years. The food is great, the prices are more than reasonable, large portions. This place is ran by an older couple and they are always working hard! (Really never bothered me even slightly that the woman is not overly friendly, she doesn’t need to be, she’s pleasant enough)

I ordered the seafood lo mein, it was disgusting. The noodles were hard and the meat was not fully cooked. Plus my food took a hour and a half to get to me. Then she up the price from the regular price. I will not be ordering from here again.

I have been coming to Lee's for past 4 years. Food tasted better than most. The negative reviews are full of it. I never had a problem with my credit card or anything else. It is a very busy take out. Service is prompt. I have never seen them sitting down ever ! ANYWAYS, a must go to local place.

amazing food!!! service is fine, but not super fast. they always seem super mad when you talk to them on the phone. not a dine in place though, no like tables and isn’t that welcoming.
Parking: lots of parking because it is in a strip mall.
Wheelchair accessibility: it is kind of wheelchair accessible, it has a curb

The lady working the counter today May,31st 2024 at 3:09 PM was extremely rude. Every time she would respond to what we would like to order she was rude and she was very short with us. she wasn’t welcoming at all and she clearly lacks in costumer service. She sits in a chair behind the counter just eating food and watching t.v. When we got our food she gave us our bag, said have a nice day bluntly without eye contact and sat down. I checked my bag for the waters we ordered and all she said was oh and got us the waters that we order…that she would’ve forgotten if we didn’t ask.
They also try to tape up all of the prices on the board.
The food is over priced and its an inconvenience that you have to buy things separately instead of asking for a side. The food is also not even good for it to be priced like that. I will NOT be coming back. This was a waste of my money and time.

Hidden takeout gem. They give so much food for good price. It is not a dine in spot and has poor atmosphere but yummy cheap eats.
Big portions, good food. Hits that Chinese craving when you have it. Hidden gem in the neighborhood.

Food is great but the service is bad. The woman who takes phone orders has the most horrible attitude.

Ordered online through their website 2 times once in November and once in December. Both time fraud purchases hit the card that was used to pay for the food. DO NOT BUY WITH YOUR CARD ON THIER WEBSITE UNLESS YOU WANT TO GET SCAMMED!!!

I have been a customer for 20 years. Food dependable but service has just gone downhill. If one orders online, Lees often won't even fill your order! You have to call and remind them to look at online orders! Big delays and they are not polite. The "bonus" extras online are often not honored even though the online system shows "Free, Add Me." Decent food but I have placed my last order...not worth the numerous hassles. Too bad. Further, Citibank has determined Their WEBSITE is NOT Secure: Cc numbers are duplicated and fraud ensues.

The woman who answers the phone is so rude. Very monotone. Doesn’t give the total or how long to pick up, just hangs up. Seems she hates her job.
