Lee's Hunan Chinese Restaurant — Restaurant in Lincoln Charter Township

So, I came just wanting some good Chinese food and by the reviews I figured it was worth a shot. It was very empty and the man quietly took my order - I’ll preface by saying I order a lot of different items so I can try a lot a know what’s good for next time. I ordered my 2 egg rolls, an order of fried dumplings and almond boneless chicken with fried rice- not the white rice. Everything came one after another until the chicken came- it had white rice so I asked where was the fried rice and I think he was the owner just laughed and said, “you eat a lot of food”..... which RATTLED me simply because I ate one egg roll and pushed away for a To go the other, I ate 2 dumplings and was taking the rest to go — I had 3 bites of the almond boneless and didn’t like it at ALL. Between the no good chicken and the you eat a lot comment I said “check please” - he said no no he can make the rice but I insisted for my check and to be on my way. It was difficult to bite my tongue but all I asked is... whys it your business what I eat and also... I’m eating so I know what’s good. Only thing any good was the dumplings the rest were...

The reviews have it correct. Not much to look at (in fact, if I hadn't already ready many reviews I would not have stopped) but the food is great. I was in St. Joe's on vacation, I spoke with several locals and they all recommended Lee's for Chinese/Asian food.

I was buying for 20+ people, so I was a little concerned about such a large takeout order, I went in at lunchtime to speak with them (assumed to be "Lee" and his wife) they were WONDERFUL! They helped me pick a variety of dishes and all of the ones I tried were excellent. What's more, they allowed me to place my dinner order right then at lunch and had it ready exactly when I asked it to be. Because of the size of the order I expected it to be more difficult, it couldn't have been easier.... wait... no... it could have. They don't have their full menu anywhere online that I could find. That's it! And for the record, everyone I bought for spoke highly of the food as well.

I'll definitely be back every time I...

Don't let the outside fool you - this place is great!

[Atmosphere] Plenty seating. Mix of tables and booths. Probably can seat 30-50 people all at once. Very very dated furniture and overall interior. It looks like the same stuff has been used for like decades. So, definitely could benefit from a interior design refresh. Makes it seem like the food won't be that great until...

[Food] ...you eat it! Man was the food fantastic. I got the shrimp and scallops dinner plate and it was phenomenal. Cost about $14 and filled me up totally. Would def recommend this place to others. It's run

[Overall] If you like Chinese food then this is the place to go. Just be mindful of their really short hours. And there's only 1 employee (the owner is also the chef). So if you come with a large party be prepared to wait a bit as he preps your food...by himself. But does that man have...
