Really good Chinese food, it’s not like your run of the mill hmm rice soy sauce and some meat and under seasoned. This place was legit Well seasoned and really tasty, you can tell they’ve been cooking for awhile. From the shrimp fried rice to the crab Rangoon it was all good. If you’re not a fan of msg don’t eat here. I’ll order from here again for sure.

Surprisingly really tasty Chinese option in Logan Square. Their prices are slightly higher than surrounding areas but I’m thinking it may just be worth it. Everything isn’t perfect but it’s pretty darn good. Sesame chicken could be a bit more sweet but overall the flavor is delicious, the chicken is moist and overall a good dish. The same goes for their orange chicken… could use slightly more tang or sweetness, but overall really tasty dish and I’d get both main dishes again. Their potstickers are huge! They aren’t just huge but packed full of meat with thick dough, everything tasting awesome together. They were a bit too oily… okay, a lot too oily. I could do without that, for sure. I ended up wrapping them with paper towels to get rid of some of the oil. Yummy egg rolls and good crab rangoon full of the imitation crab. Loved all the food options at Lee’s…could do with slightly less oil… and perhaps a few extra dollars in my pocket!

Just tried to make an order(using the Postmates app). We ordered 3 of the dinner specials. When the driver attempted to pickup our food, the lady from the restaurant called and abruptly said that they we could not order the special. I asked her«why not», her response was because today is New Year’s Day. I failed to see the connection, so I asked for further explanation. She then said that nobody offers specials on new year’s(huh?) and that they could not take our order. She said everything had to be ordered separately. Her attitude was very short and rude. I then said that I need to cancel my order. Then she abruptly handed the phone to the Postmates delivery driver, with no further words. Again, just pretty rude. Apparently they take and accept dinner special orders on any other day except for today. Seems like a pretty blatant attempt of price-gouging and taking advantage of people. Wack!

Food is great but for the price it isn’t worth it. Placed a order for delivery tonight for $ 30 and it came in these small boxes. I mean for that much money, I would have expected to have left overs. Literally not even the rice was enough to last me and ITSRICE! wtf you would think they would be generous because ITSRICE.

Called to place an order for pick up & the guy was very friendly. 15 minutes after we ordered the same guy who took our order called us back to inform us our food was ready for pick up. Prices are fair for what we ordered. As for the food, the orange chicken was pretty good. The chicken fried rice was very tasteless & the portions were a little small. I’m surprised at all the great reviews this place has for the food

This is my go to place for Chinese American food in my neighborhood. We all know this isn’t authentic Chinese food, but rather an Americanized interpretation of Chinese food to cater to western tastes during the 40’s and 50’s. It stuck around and we still love it to this day. The service is fast and friendly, even when ordering take out or delivery. The restaurant does leave a lot to be desire. It has old seating you’d find circa the 1970’s. Lee’s dining area would need a fixer upper, big time. As far as the food is concerened, Lee’s has the best egg rolls outdide of China Town. Their soups are delicious like Wonton, vegetable, sweet and sour soup. Main dishes like chicken chow mein, green curry chicken, kung pao shrimp, beef egg foo young are favorites of mine. Lee’s combo rice is delicious. Anyone who complains about the portion sizes are out of their mind, because portions of food is for more than one person. Is Lee’s a ground breaking restaurant? No. But unlike most fast food chinese restaurants, they do put care to their food. I honestly wouldnt give Lee’s a straight on 4 but it deserves 3.5 stars. The food is delicious, and portions are big and the deliver is very good. What’s not to like?

Best egg roll I’ve ever had! Love the wontons too. I wish they didn’t put the sauce on the sweet sour chicken, was a bit soggy but still good flavor!

I had a lunch special. It was expensive for a lunch special. I had sweet and sour chicken. it came with white rice, an egg roll and egg drop soup. They’d do better by not including that soup that no one likes and replace it with a can of pop. The food portions were very small, considering it was $ 8.49. They made it fast though. I ordered it as I was on my way there and I am about 5 mins away and it was ready when I arrived and very hot.

I have never wrote a review before, but I can not belive the horrible service at counter when ordering take out. Let’s start with customer in front of me who was waiting to pay and was told very rudely to sit down. I proceeded to order a dinner special. In the gigantic menu in front of counter states very clearly $ 1.50 for substitution on fried rice. I wanted shrimp instead if chicken, when I asked again very rudely«no shrimp, only chicken with special». So either the signage is wrong or the counter person needs to know his job a little better. Didn’t feel like arguing, long day and didn’t want to lose my temper. But extremely disappointed of the way I was treated.

Hands down the best Chinese food in Chicago… if you are a Michigander order the oriental Chicken and Add scallion and almond and voila! «Almond Boneless Chicken aka War Sui gai»

We went there on a whim because our go-to places had a long wait for delivery. It’s across the street, so why not? It was fine… nothing to write home about, but not horrible. We had the shrimp egg foo young, crab rangoon, vegetable moo shu, egg rolls, and almond cookies. The almond cookies were clearly from a store, not fresh. The shrimp egg foo young was fine, not great. The veggie moo shu was pretty good. I’m torn between 2 and 3 stars. Not a fave, but not that bad… I’m in a good enough mood… 3 stars! We’d do it again if the weather was bad and the other places on the corner were closed but it definitely won’t be our new go-to spot.

I got Thank You tonight for takeout instead of Lee’s to watch some hockey. It was the worst decision of my life. I’m sorry Lee’s. I’ll be back next game though.

Searching for a new go-to Chinese spot, I was led to Lee’s upon good reviews. I have to now wonder if they were paid to say such nice things. The egg rolls were surprisingly large and not greasy, but lacked in any sort of flavor besides peanut. The white rice that came with the Orange Chicken I ordered was over cooked and looked more like sushi rice by texture. And the chicken… seemed like they drowned it in a flavorless sauce and threw in a piece of broccoli as garnish. Only redeemable quality was the late night delivery. Pass on this place and go elsewhere — I know I am.

Ordered takeout from here 20 minutes before they closed on Thursday(around midnight). It was a no-frills delicious, greasy grub option. We got the dumplings, fried rice and some egg rolls. My dumplings were GIGANTIC — about 8 in the box even though the menu supposedly says six. They more than satisfied. I agree with other Unilocalers in that they’re just a little too doughy, but overall they taste great. The doughiness wouldn’t stop me from ordering. The egg rolls tasted like they were stuffed with pad Thai, which was interesting(mostly because of the peanut taste). I didn’t finish mine but I felt really full already because of the dumplings. It wasn’t super cheap but hey, for late night Chinese, how much better can you get? Yum!

Never going here again. 2 smoothies with tapioca costs $ 10, and there were only about 8 tapioca balls. The fruit tasted old, and the workers are very rude. Do not go here.

This place is amazing!!! potstickers are freshly made from scratch and beyond delicious. The sauce for the potstickers is also made there from scratch. Mr/Mrs Lee are both really friendly and after your second visit, there’s a 90% chance they’ll remember your dish. People that judge a book by its cover make me laugh. You can go to a super fancy place in downtown for some food & have the best decorations/furniture in town. At the end of the day those fancy yuppie places are horrible in food. Mr Lee’s place Is awesome & delicious.

Super fast delivery. Sesame chicken was exactly how I like it. Sweet, not too breaded, still crispy and super delicious. My bf ordered the Mongolian beef and he said it’s been a while since he’s had a place make it so good. Definitely ordering from here again!

Lee’s has redeemed themselves from a bad experience last time. Delivery was SUPER quick, food was great. The egg rolls were fantastic.
