So now let's do $14.95 buffet. I can basically assemble whatever combo I want and get more of it if I so choose. For instance I could never actually order a combo with fried rice and lo mein but I can get it here. Great win. Good selection of meats. I like the small amounts so they don't get soggy or tough. All were solid. I don't know why more places don't do salt and pepper shrimp with peeled shrimp. Yeah you loose some of the texture but sometimes I don't want to peel or pick legs out of my teeth. Then finish with some jello. It's the perfect combo. Honestly every part of it I would be satisfied if it was in a combo but even better I can do it my way.

The siu mai was the biggest disappointment. It tasted like it had been frozen and reheated rather than freshly made, and the texture and flavor were not what we expected. The food overall just didn't give us a reason to stay and order anything else. Beyond the food, the cleanliness of the restaurant was concerning. The floor was extremely sticky--our shoes literally made a sticking sound every time we walked. When we sat down, there was also a strong unpleasant greasy smell in the dining area. Between the smell and the sticky floors, it was difficult to feel comfortable or enjoy being there. We normally take several photos of the food and restaurant when we go out, but this time we only took one. We honestly just wanted to finish what we had and get out as soon as possible. I'm giving two stars because I believe every restaurant has the opportunity to improve. I really hope management takes a serious look at the cleanliness, smell, overall environment, and food quality. Fixing these basic issues could make a huge difference in the customer experience.

Folks this place is clean, updated, and family friendly. The food is the best for many miles around when it comes to Chinese food. Veggies are fresh and items are cooked when ordered.

One of the guys working there (I will need to ask his name next time I pop in) refuses to let me tip with my card and if I want to tip it would have to be cash and I'd have to just leave it there; I absolutely love that and it makes me want to tip and patronize there even more. The teriyaki chicken is made with good quality chicken and the sauce is just how I like it, and the steamed sticky rice I know is nothing extraordinary, but I can't manage to make it that sticky and perfect at home, so it is spec to me haha. Anyway, it isn't exactly cheap, but it also isn't unreasonable, so you factor in the friendly staff and how quick they get you your tasty food, and it all makes it more than worth it. cheers

That being said, it's not , just a bit too salty for me. The Teriyaki Chicken would have been close to a Tokyo version except for the very heavy application of black pepper. No black pepper in Japanese yakisoba. Take out the black pepper, use real soba noodles broil in the sauce until it caramelizes a little, then charge those prices and I'll give it a 5+. The bright and clean cafeteria atmosphere was quite refreshing.

The restaurant hasn't been renovated in a very long time, but it has a loyal customer base. While we were there, we saw several regulars who proudly support the restaurant because it has become a tradition for them over the years. We tried the chicken garlic wings, honey walnut prawns, and pork fried rice, along with the complimentary tea. The food was tasty, the portions were satisfying, and the service was friendly and attentive. If you're looking for ambience, this may not be the place. But if you appreciate long-standing family-run restaurants with good food, it's definitely worth a visit. Do support places like this--they're part of the community and deserve to stay around.

Prices were significantly more, like $5 more for the same combo as a year ago.... Okay, everything is going up. She brings out my order in a plastic lunch container, I look at her dumbfounded and say I ordered the number 10 dinner combo, and it should be 4 boxes of food, and it's incredibly light. She assures me it's what I ordered. I get out to the truck and peek inside, and there is about 3/4 of the normal food and only a small scoop of fried rice. I walked back in and asked, yup new ownership as of 7 months ago. I point to my T-Ball picture from 1987 on the wall and express my displeasure with the changes. -Red sauce was gelatinous and appeared to have been thawed -Soy Sauce is a different brand, Lucky (I loved the Double High brand, salty not sweet) -BBQ Pork is now bright red, no lacquer glaze, dry and sliced way too thick -Sesame Chicken has no sesame seeds in the batter -Pork Fried Rice has only the smallest flecks of bbq pork, dry and very small portion. -Fried Shrimp was the closest to previous, but still seemed off. Not sure I will be back. I'm heart broken as my hometown Chinese place of 41 years just died a silent death while I wasn't looking. I grew up with the previous owners son and although change is never easy we thank the Lee's for all the wonderful food and wish them a happy retirement. As for the new ownership, get your sh!t together or you'll never survive. $20 for the same combo I've been ordering for decades is laughable. I always had leftovers, but none this time as the portions are that small.
