Lee's Asian Gourmet — Restaurant in Lower Frederick

Put aside any hesitation over small town, small Asian places. Lee's was already good prior to recent (2023) change in ownership. Good news: It is even better now. Favorites: Any curry shrimp dish (traditional yellow, Thai red or green). Shrimp lo mein. Beef broccoli. Shrimp broccoli. Hot and Sour soup (amazing). Basil scallops. Chicken broccoli. Beef lo mein. Many great entrees. Shrimp dishes outstanding! The shrimp are quite large (!!). Had green curry shrimp today -- definitely improved from a year or two ago (when it was already quite good). Better tasting sauce, better veggies. My overall rating 4.7. Update 7-27-24: Recently had red curry beef. Red curry is likewise improved under new owners. They use LITTLE IF ANY "filler" -- i.e. bamboo shoot, water chestnut and baby corn (unlike prior ownership). This is a BIG POSITIVE. I feel that the wonton soup is likewise improved, though it was already fairly good under prior ownership. The hot-n-sour soup is really perfect -- something I would not ordinarily order at most Asian fusion places, but here it's sensational. No...

2nd time i ate from here.. food was ok..portion was AWFUL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I ordered spicy shrimp and i literally got 4SHRIMPPPPP AND SOOOOOOOOO MANY PIECES OF ONIONS OMGGGGG I HAD ONIONS AND SO MUCH SAUCE LEFT IT WAS CRAZY i wish i would have taken a picture i work nearby and this is the only takeout place close enough for me to run to real quick since i work in the medical field and dont really get a break.. i would have given 2 stars if i would have at least gotten a fork and napkins in my bag but nope :/ plus i felt some type of way the guy in there (of asian decent) repeatedly asked me (at least 4 times) and kept trying to give me hot sauce... ??? im black and i guess he was assuming i was forgetting to ask for hot sauce ..never will i...

Mr. Lee's has always been delicious! They totally missed the mark on everything we ordered tonight. The crispy shredded beef was mush and we couldn't find meat in the fried mush... the potstickers were tasteless... the spareribs dry... What a disappointment!

Follow up to my review: Mr. Lee's is under new ownership. The new owner reached out to me to discuss our disappointment in the meals we purchased. She had them recooked for us today. They tasted better than Friday. However, it does seem as though they are using a new recipe for the crispy shredded beef. While it was better than Friday, it wasn't the same as we have ordered before the new ownership took over. We will give definitely give Mr. Lee's another try but order...
