Red Apple — Restaurant in Lee

Terrible….. the crab rangoon, which had so little filling i didn’t have to worry would taste bad (since how do you screw up frying a wonton?) was fine… but mostly empty. My “general tso chicken” which I asked to be extra spicy had literally less spice than most orange chicken dishes and had the benefit of a nasty fish taste which indicates to me that it was fried in the same oil as fish, hopefully from this week. Luckily I also ordered hot and sour soup. Unluckily, it was neither hot nor sour. Basically mushroom ick with some tofu. Luckily, the place I am staying has a garbage disposal. I wish I could say I am surprised but the Lee, MA area is no culinary mecca for certain. Thank goodness for kitchens in rental properties for visitors who have actually eaten quality...

The food here was better than the other Chinese restaurants in town. But that's not to say that it was very good. Everything I had tasted kind of bland, from the meat, to the rice, to the sauce, although the vegetables tasted very fresh. The place wasn't terribly clean, overall, but the tables were clean. Pricing for the lunch and dinner entrees was very inexpensive. Service was fast and friendly. If you really want good Chinese food, I suggest driving a few minutes to either Lenox, Pittsfield,...

Best American Chinese food in the area. Very nice, friendly family. I see people complain about the "kids" working there. That's how family businesses are. The "kids" are learning valuable skills that not only help with their general education schooling, but into college as well. The "decor" isn't fancy, but the emphasis is on good food that is affordable. No restaurant is perfect, but we've never had a bad meal...
