Some of the best Chinese food outside of NYC or my home town the Bronx Chamblee has nothing on the chefs here ! read more

This restaurant has been in the neighborhood for years. And the food has always been good. On this visit, customer service was on point. The guy (wish I had asked him his name) behind the counter was very courteous and went above & beyond helping me decide on my meal. I ended up going with chicken & mixed vegetables (spicy). So good. read more

My goodness. If you have given a good review at this place, I have to question your taste buds and knowledge of Asian cuisine. I had shrimp chop suey and my wife had shrimp fried rice. The rice on both dishes were terribly bland. My shrimp/chop suey veggies were ok. We had a large egg drop soup. It had zero taste and it was burned. How do you burn soup? About 4 spoons and in the trash. We had the 6 piece crab rangoon. My wife ate 1/2 of 1 and I had a bite of another, and in the trash they went. 40+ bucks wasted. A lot of trash can action including the to go menu. You're better off going to New China if that place still exist. Chou Lee's is terrible. I will stick with the Yummy House in Conyers. This is my first and only stay away warning. read more

They have great customer service! And they have Midwest style thin gravy which is a rare find.

Was trying to actually find some good Chinese in Atlanta and a few people recommended this place. I'm convinced Atlanta residents don't know what good Chinese is because everything about this was mid. I ordered chicken fried rice, braised wings, and chicken lo mein. I didn't really love anything. The lo mein was ok, but had a fishy taste. Either they used too much fish oil or cooked it with seafood dishes. The chicken fried rice was a complete mess, but I'm thinking maybe they gave me the wrong order. It had snow peas, carrots, broccoli, parsnips, onions, and mushrooms. I didn't find any chicken. I'm assuming someone gave me veggie fried rice instead. I couldn't even eat it at all because I hate mushrooms. So I completely wasted my money on this. The braised wings were just ok. They had tons of garlic and it's pretty much all I could taste. Messing up my order the first time I go means I won't be going back anytime soon. read more

Chou Lee Chinese Restaurant - Was supposed to be chicken friend rice, but judging by all the veggies and no chicken, it's not. - Chinese Near Me - Lithonia, Georgia

Excellent food and service! The environment is clean and inviting. My family and I enjoy everything about this resturant. Thanks

Great Chinese food restaurant in Decatur and the food is amazing !!!! I give it 4 stars

I ordered a side of vegetable fried rice , and they told me 15 minutes . I ended up waiting 45 entire minutes . They even had my order waiting right behind them while I sat and wasted my time for 20 minutes after paying. Then the 2 boys had the nerve to have an attitude. I will NOT be returning ever !!! It's not even about the long wait time, it's about the attitude. read more

Great food. Quick service. The lobby has seating but at this place people come in, pick up food, and leave. But the food hits every time! My uncle has known about this place since before 2000. And he still talks great things about it. read more

Been going to this spot for a long time maybe earlier 2000's. Very convenient and consistent food selections. Egg rolls , braised wings , egg foo young, egg drop soup, fried dumplings and the sesame chicken just to name a few items I like read more

My family ordered carry-out for $80...I haven't been here for a while but I recommended this for tonights dinner and the fried rice was horrible! The sesame chicken, General Tso's, and the beef and broccoli were also disappointing. The only item I was pleased with was my egg roll. A 45 minute drive and $ money wasted. They used to be sooooo good! read more

They impressed me with their food, service & ambiance for sure . First time trying and they're crab ragoons were 10/10 , braised wings 10/10 even though they weren't too much but more so on the smaller side , shrimp fried rice 10/10 & my husband enjoyed the sesame chicken as well . The crab ragoons dipped in their braised wings sauce had me ready to go right back and get more ! I just don't like the normal sauce that comes with crab ragoons personally . read more

Dinner for 3 We placed an order via phone. The young gentleman who answered the phone was a little dry and monotone. He advised the food would be ready for pick up in about 20 mins. When we arrived within that time frame, it was ready and waiting. When we arrived home, the food was warm and tasty. I ordered the Curry chicken which was good, but tasted like it needed to simmer on a stove a little longer to deepen the flavor. Wifey ordered the Braised Wings with fried rice and really enjoyed it. My daughter ordered and loved the Sesame Chicken with French Fries. I thought their prices were a little high, but overall, we had a good experience with this take-out order. read more

Chou Lee Chinese Restaurant - House fried rice with no pork and wings - Chinese Near Me - Lithonia, Georgia

After three trips here I am convinced that the food does not live up to the great reviews that I have read. The braise sauce is good but I doubt I'll be back again. It's mid at best read more

It was good solid Chinese food. No eggs and no peas and carrots in the rice. I was told that the owner says thats cheap fillers and she doesn't need cheap fillers in her rice but honestly I prefer it with the eggs, peas and carrots. Also why can't we ever get bean sprouts in the fried rice anymore anywhere? Well the food was good and I noticed she hires people from the neighborhood which is a good thing. If you're going to make money off us, give back as well. I will Return and take pics of the food next time read more

We have been going to Chou Lees for 30 years. Their egg drop soup is the best! I've never gotten a meal that I didn't like. The owner is friendly and is always there. They take phone orders and food is usually ready in 20 minutes. It's our only place for Chinese food. read more

My friend and I are from out of town and ordered takeout from here. We got sesame chicken and sweet and sour chicken and both were very bland. The sauce was also very watery for the sesame chicken which I have never experienced before with other restaurants. We ordered crab rangoons and egg drop soup, and my friends and I love onion and garlic. There was wayyyy too much onion and garlic; it was all you could taste. My friend also later got sick a couple hours after eating their meal. Would not eat here again! read more

I don't know why this restaurant is so good but it's just too damn good! I'm from VA and we have the Chinese restaurant called Mak's. They have black people in the kitchen so the food tastes like an old black grandma was whipping up some Chinese food. It's ok. But when I want Chinese. I want Chinese. I have been to Chou Lees twice. The first time, I don't remember what I ordered but I LOVED IT. So now, it's my second time. I just got out of the hospital and was craving Egg Fu Yung. My cousin ordered it for me over the phone and I went and picked it up. I lie to you not, my body began to heal as soon as I opened up the vegetable fried rice! I'm the type of person the loves greasy Chinese food. This isn't that. It's waaaaay better. You know, there's a running joke that you never see a delivery truck pull up to a Chinese restaurant. And I'm sure you never will at Chou Lee's. I'm positive that they go to the Farmers Market and hand pick their produce and meat. Everything about this food is exceptional!! It's like all other Chinese food restaurants are beneath me, at this point. And the biggest factor for me is, every time my son eats Chinese food, his face breaks out. But, Chou Lee's? He ate a whole carton of fried rice with no issues. I don't know who's in the kitchen but, I prayed that God grant them access into heaven because they deserve it! read more

Anytime I'm in the area, I get Chou Lees! It's always fresh and so good no matter what you get! Hey Chou Lees, you will enjoy it all!

So far so good for a take out order. The Mongolian beef was sweet which I didn't expect but everything was pretty good. The house fried rice was definitely good. read more

Chou Lee Chinese Restaurant - Mongolian beef, and house fried rice - Chinese Near Me - Lithonia, Georgia

When I first came here the food was good but after COVID it just went down hill. My sesame chicken is dry and looks like it's been taken off another plate and just added .. never have a bought a combination plate and could actually see the chicken through the batter and sauce of my sesame chicken.. . And let's not get started on the crab Rangoon . It was so hard to pull apart and when I took a bite it was just sour and old tasting.. definitely not what I'm used to . Overall I won't be spending my money here anymore. I better off going down the street to a less known location and receiving better food. SMH Never in my life have I tasted something like that ... 40 dollars just down the drain read more

Nothing fancy but, it hit the spot. What I like most about the restaurant is that they employ people from the neighborhood. read more

Raised wings are the best in town. The sauce...addictive!!! A must try when on the East side of Atlanta.

I've been going here for over 15 years. I started when they were an actual restaurant on Covington highway. I must admit the food was better back then. However, now I find it's a hit or miss especially if you order on the weekend. Overall it's a decent spot and I love the fact that they hire young black men to work the counter. I'll keep supporting, it's a neighborhood staple! read more

So, Instagram had me try Chou Lee's. So a couple of reels and a food influencer poll that noted Chou Lee's as one of the best Chinese food spots in the Atlanta area. I was near and decided to give them a try. I ordered shrimp and broccoli in a brown sauce, vegetable fried rice, veggie eggroll and an order of "regular" wings. While my shrimp and broccoli seemed fresh it was flavorless and swimming in the brown sauce. It was more of a "soup". To be clear, I decided to save and recook the next day and I accidentally spilled HALF of the liquid on my floor and there was still an entire bowl of sauce to cover the shrimp and broccoli. There was absolutely no flavor or seasonings, very bland. My vegetable fried rice was mushy and bland as well. Basic salt and pepper could have been helpful. The eggrolls were a nice size however they were charred and tasted as if they were cooked in old grease. Similarly, the wings tasted like the oil they were fried in was old. Overall, I will likely never return. On a positive note, the staff were very friendly and nice. read more

Customer service alone deserves 10 stars. We tried a little bit of everything but my favorite of them all was the chicken wings

I've ordered takeout from Chou Lee a few times now. One thing I noticed is consistency. The chicken tastes great every time! Since the restaurant is typically busy at any given time of the day, they work very fast and are very kind. The restaurant is small, so if there's a line out the door, don't be surprised. Today I had their lunch portion of the Sweet & Spicy chicken, along with an order of Crab Rangoon. Always hits the spot. read more

Braised wings were Everything .... Mu Shu was good too. All the food was hot . Definitely will be back.

Meh. Everything here was pretty mediocre. Nothing to write home about. The restaurant itself has a BEAUTIFUL interior, but it just doesn't seem like they maintain it well. There were cleaning carts just lying about during lunch time and the floor in front of our table was really sticky and dirty looking. The food flavors were alright but within like 5 minutes our food cooled down significantly as if it were cooked in the microwave instead of a stove (not that this is truly what happened, just speculation). They also brought our food in on a cart which was kind of odd (and uncomfortable reminiscent of the cleaning cart). I had a good bit of fried rice left over, but I just left it on the table instead of getting takeout because flavors just weren't "wow" enough. read more

Food was barely warm and the sauce was very very runny like it had been watered down. I love Hot & Sour soup but this one had a weird sweet taste to it Only ate here because it is in the neighborhood but probably won't eat here again Also noticed that their Health/Cleanliness rating is barely even a B at 81 which is really not good. read more

Fried rice was rice with soy, no egg or anything else. Wonton was raw on the inside, and the cashew chicken was all fat and skin. I wouldn't feed this to my dog. read more

Worst hot and sour soup in Atlanta. Should be called "hot and sweet" because it was. Overwhelming taste of black pepper and a strange sweetness. No mushroom or tofu. Waste of money. read more

Chou Lees has been around for a very long time. The taste of the food has changed a little bit and the price changed a lot of bit. The food is still really good but it's not the quality it used to be when they were in the old building. I would still always recommend. read more

Well let me get straight to the point. The customer service is great. The food is good but today it was not good. I walked in, placed my order for small shrimp fried rice with extra green onions and 3 vegetable egg rolls. When I got home I noticed they gave me extra onions instead of green onions. So I called just for one to convince me that the green onion is white. Before it went left I said okay thank and have a good day. Needless to say I will be searching for new spot that serves Chinese food. read more

The best Chinese food on the east side. I promise! I'm from here and this place was here when I was a child. I'm almost 40 now

This place has great service mostly. They seemed to have changed the staff around since that last time I came around but this is a good place try them out read more

The rice had no seasoning & the sesame shrimp & sesame chicken tasted like sweet and sour sauce. 0 stars !

Wings were drenched in some kind of liquid and shrimp fried rice was tasteless. To improve please get better cooking staff. It used to be a great restaurant until they moved to their current location. read more
