“This has great Chinese food.
Our party ordered close to 10 dishes.
All of them were excellent.
This is a straight forward, no frills Chinese restaurant offering great food.
Plenty of parking.
Highly recommended.
Two Thumbs up.“

“Had the wonton and brisket noodle soup with baby bok choy as an add. The wontons were delicious and had the most delicate wrapper. The brisket was very tender and the bok choy super fresh. Drank all the soup, as it had tons of flavor. Can't wait to go back to try more.“

“What a fantastic place to get lunch! My cousin and I work in Downtown and frequently come here for lunch. They have an affordable lunch special and I always get the double BBQ pork. It comes with fried rice, veggies, soup, and a drink. Only $12.00!!! One would think a cheaper price would mean lesser quality, but it's not. The food tastes amazing and I would highly recommend this place to all locals as well as anyone visiting Seattle.“

“Comfort food to the max! Quick service and large portions. Love the fried dough. Do fresh and I could eat 10 of those drowned in the congee myself. The wontons are delicious too. Wish the tables are a little bit more cleaner and less sticky“

“The service is absolutely terrible. I would give it a negative 10 if I could. I bought two steamed buns which can perfectly fit into a paper bag. The staff put them in a plastic box without asking me so she can charge me the box fee. I told her I do not need a box and please put them in a paper bag. The staff yelled at me "Don't ever come back again!!!" It is like robbery in plain day light. They force you to purchase the plastic box you do not need. I noticed they used to have plastic plates for dining ins, but now they got rid of all the plastic plates so customers who eat in have no option but to buy their plastic boxes. This is forced sale. How Sneaky! The staff are always yelling at you and extremely rude. They are incapble of speaking normally. Definitely avoid this place.“

“Actually we had DoorDash delivered. I’m not sure u I have ever had such perfect American Chinese before. I grew up I Seattle and ate arcade Garden and Thai Tung for years bits been 30: years since then. Tonight we ordered using door dash, Kung Pao chicken and won ton noodle soup with chicken. I’m not sure but I think it’s even better than I remember from the old days. Perfect and just what we wanted. Thank you to the chefs. You guys haven’t lost it and think you are even better…if that was even possible.“

“As a Cantonese person, this place hits closest to home. Probably the most authentic Cantonese restaurant in Seattle. Prices are reasonable given the quality of the food. Service is not the fastest at busy hours, but that’s to be expected.“

“I visited with my family right after the FIFA game ended. Luckily, we were seated immediately, though people arriving shortly after us faced an hour-long wait.
The food was the absolute highlight, the General Tso's chicken, Mongolian beef, and sizzling oyster were all amazing, flavorful, and served fresh and warm. It did take a while for the dishes to arrive, but the taste made up for the delay.
The overall ambience was just okay and could use some improvement. The restaurant also seemed heavily understaffed; we had to flag down the staff multiple times just to get water refills and our final bill. Come for the incredible food, but be prepared for a potential wait and slower service during peak times!“

“I'm sorry to give only 3 stars but wontons in shrimp wonton soup had tails still on some of the shrimp in the wontons. I hope this was an accident and not the way they are supposed to be made. But being unfamiliar with shrimp wonton, maybe thats the correct way. Sorry, but I didn't like it with the tails still on the shrimp.“

“We ordered a few items tonight and they were delicious, the chicken chow mein, the sautéed udon noodles, and the giant prawn fried rice. All amazing! My son also had the fried dumplings and spring rolls. He really enjoyed them as well. We were all happy and full. Everything was delicious, we had plenty left over, would definitely visit again.“

“My husband has been talking about this place for the longest time, so we finally decided to give it a try today. We picked everything up and brought it home, and honestly, I’m so glad we finally did!
My husband is from Macau and is pretty particular about Cantonese food, so he was the one who kept telling me we had to try this place. And he was absolutely right — everything was so delicious and tasted really authentic, even as takeout.
We’ve been living in Seattle for over a year, but with all the craziness of moving and getting settled, we somehow kept putting it off. Now I’m honestly wondering why we didn’t come sooner!
Definitely some of the best Cantonese food we’ve had since moving to Seattle. We’ll absolutely be ordering from here again! ❤“

“This place was awesome!
We had a work photoshoot down the street and placed a massive order. The entire order was correct, the food was fantastic, and they had vegan and vegetarian options for our needs as well. The salt and pepper tofu was some of the best tofu I've ever had, and I also personally got the curry dish which was delightful.“

“I like that this place gives you an order sheet to customize your meal. I ordered a congee bowl with century egg and pork, along with steamed tripe. The congee had a clean, mild flavor—a little bland for my taste, but soy sauce, chili oil, and ground pepper were available to season it to my liking.“

“We had the ginger chicken and house fried rice. This place is one of the only Chinese restaurant left in Beacon Hill. This says a lot considering this use to be a Chinese neighborhood. The food is classic Chinese American. We will definitely be going back to contributing to their preservation. The first time we had it was at a catered event. I’m glad we went back. It’s an old school classic. Supporting or neighbors will be a joy. Can’t wait to try the chow mein.“

“Lee’s Kitchen in Factoria is the same restaurant as the OG located Overlake. This location is much more spacious vs Overlake. If you are near both locations, come here instead. Their most popular dishes are the rice rolls while everyone still complains about how long it takes to make stone pot rice dishes. In case anyone misses the fine print, it takes over 30 minutes. Another couple in the restaurant thought they forgot to make the dish and were yelling into the kitchen. The staff is friendly, though limited with their English. We ordered via the tablet at the front, and the food is brought out to us at the table. A rack on a wall has all the utensils and napkins, etc. Parking is plentiful.
The Food:
Shrimp Rice Rolls $11.99 – 4 Stars
The rice rolls are still as good as I remember them. For some reason, it feels a bit out of balance this time. A lot of rice rolls, not a lot of shrimp. The sauce is fantastic and a must.
Signature Beef Brisket Rice Rolls add Egg, $18.99+$1 – 4 Stars
This is a beefy take on the rice roll. The added egg provided the yellow hue in the rice roll. Some brisket pieces are fattier. Their version is the traditional style with the chewy bit attached; some folks might hate it due to this. The sauce is also beefy. This is almost a soup, not in a bad way.
Clear Soup Beef Offal with Daikon, $12.99 – 0 Stars
This was a sad dish. When they say soup, they meant most broth, with few contents. The daikon wasn’t tender. The offal and the soup didn’t have much flavor. I rarely leave food behind, but I did for this dish.
Garlic Fried Chicken Wings, $7.99 – 5 Stars
The clear winner of the night were their wings. I believe four pieces of plump and fat wings, perfectly crispy and flavorful. I would order this again.“

“My second time for dim sum on Sundays. The food was so delicious. I see why there’s a crowd waiting in line before opening!! I went there 20-30 min before opening to get guaranteed parking in the small side lot and/or lot across the street. There’s plenty of tables in main lobby and an upstair. Ordering food was pretty streamline. No cart. Use app/tablet to order food and they will bring it out. I didn’t wait too long!“

“We were kinda skeptical to come in at first, but once we entered the restaurant it was sooo cute and cozy. Food servings is good. We loved every dish! They only had one server but he really did such a great job attending to us. Our new favorite chinese restaurant!“

“I got the duck and BBQ pork lunch combo. First, the sauce they put on it is fabulous. The pork was actually my favorite. I’d never had Chinese BBQ duck before and it’s a little too fatty for me. The cabbage that comes with is very flavorful but it was cold. Maybe that’s how it’s supposed to be but it just surprised me.
There is extremely limited indoor seating. I’m talking 4 or 5 tables. And they serve everything in to-go containers.“

“I would recommend this for anyone looking for an excellent dim sum value with nice staff. The portions are huge and the price is reasonable. That makes me badly want to be able to give this place five stars, but the quality of the food just wasn't there for a five star rating, and despite being very nice, the service was slow even though only three tables were full (I think because most orders are delivery and takeout). The rice rolls had generous portions but the sauce was not flavorful and the texture wasn't right (very much more gloopy than I'm used to). The fried pork buns (colloquially: footballs) were too sweet and were served cold. The skin on the stuffed eggplant was too tough to eat. I'd definitely go back when I'm in the mood for dim sum and don't have much cash to spend, but I'd never take friends who've been to Hong Kong.“

“You have to enter theough the boarded door on the left but once you do you get cheap well portioned fresh cuteat and rice and 1 rice bowl which is their main dish can serve 2 hungry people. They take apple and google pay but there is a bit of a language barrier.“

“Foo Lam has some of the most authentic Chinese meals in all of Seattle. It is well worth the trip no matter what side of town you are on. Their Dim Sum, their steamed/fried Shrimp and other meatballs, Congee, and assortment of Chinese eats are top notch. Their cleanliness could definitely be much improved, and their to go service sometimes is questionable as far as them giving you sufficient materials- but from a pure food standpoint the cook and staff are great. And for a quick snack, they have great Spicy, Salt and Pepper Chicken Wings.“

“I order from here at least two times a month and it’s always the best. Great price and the food is always consistent I usually get one of the dinner specials my favorite is the string bean chicken entree but all of them have been great. If you want great Chinese food this is definitely the spot to go.“

“Restaurant side is CLOSED, and has been for over a year. Wholesale tofu is still available, and order pick-up/delivery is still available. Phone number remains the same.
Yelp and other listings are outdated and highly inaccurate. No more restaurant side, until further notice.“

“Going here has been a tradition for me and my family. Once we started we couldn’t stop. Now every time I visit Seattle we have to go at least once. In fact when I first came here, I recorded the address to make sure I could come back in the future. Because the food was just that delicious. And so far it has never failed to disappoint.“

“This restaurant, formerly known as Joy Palace, has been one of my favorite places to dine for over 30 years. It’s always a pleasure to return and see familiar faces among the staff. The restaurant is clean, well maintained, and provides excellent customer service. The owner is welcoming and genuinely cares about guests’ dining experiences, while the food is consistently well presented and full of flavor.
Some of my favorite dishes include the salted fish fried rice, stir-fried crab with ginger and green onion, salt & pepper prawns, and the crab maw soup, which comes in a generous portion that’s perfect for sharing. Their dim sum is also a highlight, with a wonderful selection available during the morning and afternoon. Everything I’ve had from the dim sum carts has been fresh and delicious.
The reason for my 4-star rating is a few inconsistencies with takeout orders. On a couple of occasions, the shumai in my to-go order was undercooked. I’ve also found that certain menu items, such as fried rice, aren’t available early in the day because only the dim sum kitchen is open until the main kitchen starts service. While I understand the kitchen schedule, it can be confusing if you’re expecting the full menu. Even with those minor issues, this restaurant continues to be one of my favorite places for Cantonese cuisine, and I’ll gladly keep coming back.“

“Clean and open Dim Sum restaurant inside Factoria Mall. The service was great where the food came out quick, the wait staff were friendly and water/tea stayed filled. Overall the food was good, not the best, but also a great option if you’re on the Eastside and wanting dimsum without waiting in long lines on the weekends. The prices may seem high, but the portions are double the standard size you’re accustomed to. Shu mai, you get 8 vs 4 is an example of that. Had the shu mai, har gao, bbq pork buns ( steamed and baked), rice rolls with bbq pork & shrimp, taro balls, congee, Chinese donut, and fried rice for the kids. Definitely would come back just for the convenience.“
