Chef Lee Chinese Restaurant

Ummm...not sure how you mess up shrimp fried rice but...never had it with eggplant and the shrimp were semi-fried or some type of light breading? Peppered down, nothing like I'm used too...I thought I was hungry but not hungry enough to eat this.

The service was excellent, restaurant was clean and drinks were great. We had the appetizer sampler and the tom yum soup. Stopped in for a quick bite before grocery shopping. Looking forward to coming back for full dinner.

Other reviews indicated there are tables you can eat at, but must order at the counter. I expected a strip mall cafe with lit plastic menu. What I found was warm wood decor perfectly suitable for a date night, just no full table service. Lunch combos were very generous. I ordered Hunan chicken and would ask to have the spice level turned up a bit next time, but the food was fresh.

Chef Lee has one of the smaller menus as far as Chinese cuisine goes- but that doesn't mean they don't bring the taste! I ordered the Crab Rangoons (so good!) and the Thai Basil Shrimp (less heavy- fantastic basil!). Previously, I ordered the Pad Thai which was also solid. Funny, I think I've only ordered off their Thai section thus far. I'll have to go back and explore more!

I loved my lunch special shrimp egg fu young, I called ahead of time and when I got there my food was waiting for me. You get a decent amount, unfortunately I don’t have a picture to show because I ate it before I remembered lol. The only complaint would be that their lunch special is a lil expensive because typically I pay between 5-6 dollars for lunch special near my house but I paid $9.15 here. Which if I were to buy a regular dinner size egg gu yun from my local Chinese i would pay what I paid here for a lunch special. Nonetheless, I will definitely return because the food was very fresh and very tasty. It is an actual restaurant setting; very fancy compared to traditional Chinese restaurants. I attempted to come here a few weeks ago when I was recommended by my coworkers, but I didn’t
