Lee kitchen in madera is one of our favorite Chinese places to eat in the Central Valley. It's a different type of flavor from other Chinese places. They make everything fresh. It's located by madera ranchos. It's a drive from where I live but it's worth the scenery and then if you order yourself a lil crab ragoon appetizer (not pictured) you'll be alright lol Those ragoons never make it home btw. I've also tried other dishes, so if this particular plate isn't your niche, give something else a try. The shrimp and broccoli with extra crispy noodles is my favorite. I love the crispy yet soft broccoli, and the big shrimp. They do not play about their portions. I believe they also have a drive thru. I recommend taking cash, they do accept cards. There's a EECU atm right across the street. read more

They have good pricing and good food. They are kind as well, I called to place an order without realizing it was close to closing but they showed no signs of being upset that we placed the order so late. The food is fresh and I love the option to call an order in and go through the drive thru. I haven't dined in before, but we sat inside waiting for an order. The inside is clean and there are lots of tables and chairs. read more

Lee Kitchen is hands-down the best Chinese food in Madera! Even though it's a bit of a drive for me, the quality makes it absolutely worth the trip. We've tried a huge variety of their menu, and every single dish has been a hit. The ultimate proof? My parents are Chinese food fanatics, and after trying some of ours, they've already started ordering takeout there on their own. Beyond the food, the service is fantastic and incredibly fast. The dining room is clean, spacious, and quiet enough for a pleasant meal--we've enjoyed eating in several times. Plus, their drive-thru for preorders is a total game-changer for convenience! read more

This place to me has the best BBQ pork. We ordered a plate and the bbq pork is thick, soft and seasoned to perfection. The sweet and sour was crispy how I like it. The chow main was not my favorite. Their worn wonton soup chefs kiss! And they have a drive thru also. They also have alot of sitting. Their customer service is not the best but the food is. read more

I am so disappointed in my first experience with this restaurant. I'd read the awesome reviews and saw the amazing food. I was excited to try it! I placed a to go order from home and was told to pick up around 6pm. When I arrived, it took five minutes for me to be greeted and spoken to. I was told my order was waiting for 1 more item. The fried wontons. After 15 mins, I asked how much longer and stated my concern that the rest of my food was now going to be cold. They said they would go check, 5 mins later the wontons were done. They packaged up my food and I ask, no the rest will be cold now (I even checked it) they didn't offer any solution. Just sent me home with my lukewarm chicken and noodles. Maybe I'll go eat in next time, but it will be along time now before I give them another chance. read more

I ordered Sweet & Sour Chicken last Friday night and if you're expecting the one the previous owner made, save your money. This new version is awful. Little bitty pieces of tough and stringy chicken, 1/4 the size of the previous owners dish. This version had very few vegetables with a couple of carrot and peppers slivers. Mostly onions. This was from the Madera Ranchos location. read more

This is the BEST Chinese food around!!! My family and I get takeout from here all the time!! We highly recommend!!!

I'm going to be as polite as I can but I gotta tell the truth yesterday was my first time eating here & wasn't impressed. The flavor of the food was great my problem was it doesn't have good reheat value so there's that. The service was great & the restaurant was nice & clean I just felt as a asian restaurant it should be better but sadly no the orange chicken was bready & wasn't enough sauce on it the chow mein was okay but like I said reheating is just not good. If they made some changes it be a great place for good food. My apologies in advance I just felt like it wasn't that great. The price & portion was excellent. read more

We had good service, servings were huge, and flavors were awesome. We do not live in the area but will drop by again.

After a year has gone by I went back to Lee Kitchen last night for dinner. It was wonderful. We ordered egg flower soup, steamed potstickers, and teriyaki chicken. Portions were generous and service A+. We had two females and one Asian male severs. All three were good, but I preferred the male better. He was professional in his performance and attire which I expect when going out for dinner. Looking forward to going back soon. read more

Lee Kitchen is about 18 miles away from us but well worth the drive. Hands down the best overall Chinese food in the Fresno Clovis Madera area. Everything is good!! We usually do take out but the restaurant is clean, service is great. They do have a drive thru for picking up to go orders but we have never used that so I can't say much there. Can't wait till our next visit!! read more

Today after leaving the winery, we went to Lee kitchen to see if they would buy wine from the winery and while we were there, we decided to eat, we ordered the Szechuan eggplant, dry, cooked beef, and chicken salad. The chicken salad was good. The chicken was cooked. Fresh had cucumbers and little wontons, but it needed more dressing. I give it a rating of seven out of 10 the eggplant Szechuan was very good. The eggplant was cooked very well. Nice texture had bell peppers. onions carrots was not real spicy for Szechuan but adequate I would give that a 8 1/2 out of 10 now to the dry beef which I've never had before, so it's hard to compare massive amount of beef. First of all. All portions are large. The beef was very interesting. It had a sweet and sour taste to it. Texture was a little chewy, but you kept going back for more. I would give it a nine out of 10. since this restaurant is in Madera and I live in Fresno I probably will not go back there again unless I'm in the area it's located in Madeira Ranchos and it's a solid Chinese restaurant service is a little slow. There's only one person in the kitchen cooking but other than that overall experience eight out of 10 I would think that the neighbors in that neighborhood have a nice Chinese restaurant that's a wrap read more

I use the drive up window for pickup . Good prices, the lemon chicken is great , lots of parking

First time here and they really impressed! This is a mom & pop Chinese restaurant, place is old but it is clean. Environment- There are plenty of tables, you may pick your seat and the servers are quick to hand you a menu. The service was fast and very friendly. Majority of other tables were older couples but the restaurant was lively with many laughters. Price- Great value!! The portion sizes were huge and around $11-15 for dinner plates (less for lunch). They have family style soups that come out in a huge bowl and was $12.99 and was plenty to share plus take home. They take cash & cards (no American Express). Food- Tasty and authentic. I ordered kung pao chicken and my fiancé ordered the orange chicken both with pork fried rice. We each got two large scoops of fried rice with plenty of pork and it tasted great, seasoned well and wasn't greasy. The fried rice did not have vegetables. The KUNG PAO CHICKEN, was a 8 out of 10, I would have given it a 10 but it was a bit too salty for my taste. The chicken itself is definitely a 10, it was tender and super soft. They use white chicken meat and fresh vegetables. The ORANGE CHICKEN was a 9 out of 10. It was crispy and really flavorful, not too sweet and enough tanginess. The batter ratio to chicken was perfect. HOT & SOUR SOUP was a 10/10!! Normally hot and sour soup comes with more eggs as fillers, but this soup was packed with ingredients- they did not skim out! Major points for using ear wood mushrooms and having a lot of it within the soup. The carrots are thinly sliced and tender, the bamboo shoots were soft and tasted delicious. The soup had the perfect consistency too (this soup is meant to be on the thicker side.) Hope you guys try it out, enjoy! read more

You just can't get a more authentic Chinese food in Madera than from Lee. Easy way to tell is whether they have Chinese written on the menu. In additional to all those same old Americanized Chinese food they also have other authentic options like 水煮鱼，辣子鸡，京都骨，星洲炒米粉. Also Great service and environment. read more

We had this doordashed so I can't comment on business or staff. The portions were huge! The food was decent. We got salt and pepper pork chops and two combos which came with noodles (which I thought would be pan fried) with pork pieces on top, sweet and sour pork (which did have more meat than most places), rice and egg rolls. We thought it was pretty good for a DoorDash option and would eat it again. read more

We always do take out and they can be slow, we always add time to their estimated time given, usually double it. Food has never been disappointing. Our favorites are orange beef, garlic green beans, and Hong Kong style chow mein, all excellent. It gives off "hole in the wall" type establishment, but we will definitely keep coming. It's one of our top Chinese food restaurants in Fresno area. read more

They had to remake our food twice. The food was great, but it took over an hour after ordering.

2 Order of steamed rice .....,,gave me 1 day old rice which is only suited for fried rice. Totally disappointed and had to make fresh steamed rice which is a staple for all Asians. Even the war wanton soup was not fresh. Will not go back again !!! read more

Food was great! I been wanting to try this place for a couple years now. My only complaint is some of the non tradition filler veggies in these 2 dishes next time ill just ask them to leave those out but food was great! Flavorful, hot, fresh, I'm honestly sad i did t start going here sooner! The staff were very nice and friendly. Not a whole in the wall per say but for the area its a hole in the wall gem read more

3.5 stars rounded to 4. we ordered veggie chow mein, veggie egg rolls & chicken fried rice for take out. customer service was excellent ordering over phone & at pick up. packaging was sealed tight & well. the veggie chow mein was a bit bland, and tasted a bit watered down but it made good leftovers for next day. the veggie eggrolls were SO good. cooked fresh, tasty & perfect. the chicken fried rice tasted like it needed more seasoning & the chicken felt like it could have been cooked a little longer. all in all, a nice convenient meal for takeout. read more

The staff is always friendly and have no problem answering questions about items. it is definitely a must try inside is quiet tv plays Chinese version of American idol or the voice. read more

folks, this differs from the Lees I once gave a 5-star review to 6 years ago. They have had new owners since then and the place is, well, to be blunt horrible. We went there last week and it is the first time I can remember when the whole party at a table just kind of looked at each other and then we all agreed to pay and leave, and by leaving, I mean that also included all plates left behind full. Overpriced with terrible service and food that tasted anything but Chinese. Do not go unless, well I can not think of an unless, so just stay away from this one. read more
