At first glance I wasn't expecting to see four booths, a trashcan and a little desk. However, I was not going to allow this to determine a greater portion of the review. I seated myself, before catching eyes with the waitress. I ordered the honey chicken dinner meal, two sides included egg roll and egg drop soup, and a water to drink.
The water came in a small styrofoam cup, from a water-cooler. At least it was cold!
As I waited alittle teacup sized human was on his mother's phone watching trolls. So while I waited I chimed in with poppy Singing "I'm not giving up today!"
Next came the egg drop soup. The color was vibrant yellow with almost a hint of orange color. Corn kernals were in it. This is new to me, but it should have remained as undiscovered, don't tamper with the egg drop soup, just stick to the recipe, no adds. This soup had a bit of a spicy kick, I didn't enjoy that.
Then came the dish with the egg roll. The egg roll was crispy, again with the spice! Someone must heavily pepper in the back, that's all I seemed to be tasting. It paired well with the sweet and sour sauce, just as a coating coolant.
Pepper everywhere and I couldn't rid the taste of it in my mouth, so I shot for soy sauce which patched it up, and the honey chicken with sesame sprinkle was a pure joy! No regrets with the honey chicken, it was sweet, savory and very filling.
Twards the tail end of the feast I reviewed some past reviews from other passerbys. I was fortunate to not find a maggot in my food, and the wait time was brief. Total over all 3.5
I would not bring my three kids here, the place is far too small. I can only hope to commit to memory the honey glazed chicken, that is definitely worth the...
Read moreTried this place because it was close to home and had never had it. We ordered the Hot & Sour soup, Chicken with Spicy Garlic Sauce, Sesame Chicken, and an order of Crab Rangoon. The soup came and the bowl was HUGE. Took a few spoonfuls and it was pretty bland. Not hot or sour. It was also pretty oily. Like beyond what it should be. It came with some fried pieces that were really stale. The Crab Rangoon honestly weren't too bad and why this is a 2 star instead of 1 star review.
The entrees came out and at first I thought they looked really good. After taking a few bites I'm not sure why they called it Chicken with Spicy Garlic Sauce. There wasn't any spice or garlic flavor. I tried the girlfriends Sesame Chicken and it tasted pretty much like the sauce that came with my order. You get a drink with your entree that comes in a can.
The place was pretty dirty on the inside. When we first walked in there was somebody sitting at a table (not a customer) playing on their phone. There was also a kid playing with his toys behind the counter who popped his head up when we walked in. The menu is taped to the wall and you have to stand back a bit to read the whole thing. No actual silverware was given to us, just foam plates and a...
Read moreThe owner is terribly rude. I ordered a dish, and I didn't want any veggies in my food. I checked my food to make sure there were no veggies, but they made it normally. The owner started raising his voice at me saying that I didn't request "only broccoli". I know that I did, because that is how I order all of my Chinese dishes. Anyhow, he continued getting loud and refused to make a new dish. Once I demanded my money back he started yelling for me to never return, which I never will. I asked for a manager and he says he the owner, which was shocking as hell. I have worked in food service all my life,and have never treated or been treated that way over a wrong order. Needless to say, I will never order from here again. Customer services is unbelievably rude and disrespectful. Go to House of Lee on...
