Burnt teriyaki on  a stick. So burnt it was black! Texture of jerky.

I haven't gone here in years and I decided to try them for dinner yesterday. I stood there waiting for my order. I called it in and they said 15 minutes. I arrived about 20 minutes or so after ordering. I figured hey they must be good, the place was really busy, usually a good sign, so I didn't mind waiting a little longer. I read their award certificates up on the wall for the past few years as being the best Chinese food in Bristol. To say the food was lousy is an understatement . It was the worst Chinese food that any of us have eaten. The lady that worked there kept going into the back to yell at the guy cooking. She had the phone on her shoulder taking orders and running in the back to pack up the food and I saw her picking up the chicken fingers and egg rolls from the fryer with her hands and then going to the register to ring out the customers. The General Tso's chicken was overcooked, and tasted like fish. The chicken fingers were dripping with oil and severely overcooked, almost like beef jerky. I probably could have eaten tree bark that tasted better. The pork fried rice was dry and just nasty- did not taste good at all. The side of boneless bbq ribs was hard, couldn't bite into it and couldn't even break it apart. Teriyaki beef on a stick in my combo plate was so dry and burnt. It was black! Waste of money! So disappointed!!!!!!

Cashew Chicken combination, at Lee Po's in Bristol, CT.

Did a take-out order tonight, our first time ordering from Lee Po's. I went with a General Tso's Chicken combination (#25), my fiancee ordered a Cashew Chicken combination (#20). Both meals were very tasty, was one of the better General Tso's chicken dishes I've ever had. The eggrolls that came with the meals were very large, and also very good too. Generous portions, reasonable price for everything. We would certainly order from Lee Po's again, and perhaps dine in also. Lee Po's is a strong 4 Star rating in my opinion.

Been a take out and eat at restaurant customer for many years. This is my go-to Chinese restaurant.

The chicken wings are terrific.

I've had only very limited experience with Lee Po's menu, but it includes two standout items: chicken wings and hot and sour soup. There are only four chicken wings in an order, but they're HUGE in size by today's standards. They're well-seasoned with salt and fried to crispy, juicy goodness. The hot and sour soup has the best overall flavor of any that I've had from restaurants in the area. While some might prefer more heat, it's just hot enough for me and has a perfect level of sourness. It has a nice consistency; it's not over-thickened with corn starch. The tender pork bits are spot on. I like the flavor so much that I can overlook the inclusion of slivers of water chestnut and use of button-type mushrooms, instead of cloud ear mushrooms. It's slightly annoying to be asked for cash if the bill is under $15, but I'm used to that from Chinese merchants.

Especially during the extreme weather during the winter they're cold in here and during summer they're kind of over hot. The woman owner i deal with every time. She's incredibly kind caring and a darling to talk to. This older Asian woman who doesn't even know me came from behind the plexiglass window and spent some time talking to me on a few occasions. She even invaded my personal space and was mere inches away. Such an incredibly sweet woman. They're always very quick here when I've placed my orders. Very very quick service. One time she did get my order incorrect but made it right on my next order. The restaurant is basically pick up take out and they have delivery. It's a basic looking Chinese no frills restaurant with pics of the food for your ambiance viewing. The food itself is very good. Keeps me coming back aglain and again for more. Very friendly. The parking is along side the street right in front. Easy peasy.

Outside is very much a busy shopping plaza in not the best part of town. Inside is a completely different story. Very clean and spacious, lots of booths and tables. Decorated well and a lot to see. The staff were friendly but there was a slight language barrier. We fumbled through the menu and found some bites to try. Food came out relatively quick, and that was a bit to manage because there were a lot of plates brought rather quickly. We got pics and dug in. The bites were flavored well. Nothing felt too greasy or under seasoned. The white pepper chicken was very crispy. But not a lot of chicken on each bite. The sweet and sour soup was both sweet and sour, but balanced enough that you could keep on eating it. The dumplings were fresh noodles and the filling was spiced well. The only flop was the spare ribs. Really tasty sauce, but very little meat on the bone. Had to suck on the bones to scrape enough meat off to make it a proper appetizer. It tasted good, just was not easy to eat. Price for the area was high for the neighborhood. It's got the quality and the flavor to command that price easily, but it doesn't match the stores. It's really good, but know that you're getting the real deal sichuan experience. Expect some heat, some saucy fingers, and some bones, and you'll get some really good bites

There is no better place that I'm aware of in the Hartford County area and probably farther but I have to be honest GREAT TASTE is so good I don't venture to far cuz its usually greasy and disappointing, They know my name and welcome me not because they ask for it when you call but because I've been a fan for so long. They know my face and are genuinely happy to see me. I do feel like I'm restaurant family. The food is fresh and delicious. The service is awesome whether eating in or taking out. The menu selections cover everyone's tastes and you will find your favorite dish listed. The Tangerine Beef and Garlic Shrimp are out of this world good! Number ONE #1 hands down!!!

My husband got Lemon Chicken. He said it was tasty, but overcooked/tough. Also, they hardly put any lemon sauce on the chicken. He had to ask for more sauce. I got the Kung Pao Chicken. It didn't have much flavor and even less sauce. It had so much cut up celery, that that was the predominant flavor. I would have given this a 3 star rating, if the prices were not so exorbitantly expensive. The Kung Pao Chicken (at lunch on a Saturday) was $17.99. Every other Chinese restaurant I've eaten at charges $11.00 at the very most for the exact same dish, with a larger portion of rice. We were both very disappointed.

It's Chinese food- American Takeout style. They're not the kind of place you want to eat in at-…read moreheard the buffet is not so awesome (and who knows if there will be a buffet ever again after COVID?), and the driveway situation going out onto busy Rte 229 with no stop light is kind of a risk, but thankfully they offer delivery for pretty cheap- less than $1. The delivery option plus it being the best delivery option in town is what gives this place 4 stars over 3. I usually order online as the over-the-phone ordering is nightmarish at best. The staff is not very friendly over the phone, or when delivering, for that matter. But they get it done, and ordering online at least alleviates half the bad staff interactions. The pricing is not cheap, but is aligned with similar type restaurants in the area. They have coupons for free items, but only if you spend over 20 (before tax), 30, 40, or more. It's the kind of place where you think each item isn't all that expensive, but the bill adds up quick. My small family of 3 can never seem to spend less than $35.00 there. The menu is the same as like restaurants in the area. My partner really likes the boneless bbq spare ribs, and rightfully so- they are very well cooked, with nicely charred/blackened tips. They come out a dark red instead of candy apple red- which is what the undercooked sauce on the ribs look like. Their fried rice is also very good. Some have called it dry, but I like it that way. So, it works for me. I like the crisp green peas and onions in it. If they added egg, it would be even better. The Beef Teryiaki skewer sticks need some work. They were very gray in color, and the teriyaki flavor was too salty, almost like Kikkomans from the jar salty. Beef Teriyaki is generally one of my favorite items, but theirs was not special. The General Tso's was middle of the road. Acceptable, but I wouldn't write home about it. The egg rolls were great. I wish we ordered more than the one included with a platter we got. Overall, the food quality is middle of the road. Prices are middle of the road. Service is less than satisfactory, but since you can order online and get delivery, you can avoid much of the bad service AND get ok quality food delivered to your door, usually within 45 min (the norm for takeout places around here). If you really don't want to go out and pick up your Chinese Takeout, I totally recommend them for best delivered in Bristol. If you're planning to pick up, there are other better places, like SunFat in the Bristol Plaza Annex.

I keep getting told come back tomorrow, nothing try the next day, nothing, they said wait till Monday for the refund to process over weekend. I went in like they said STILL NOTHING!!!! Now I have to wait for them to call their Cc company to UNLOCK the refund! Idk how long that's going to take. This was a $35.00 order so not only is food greasy the place it run down and it's 5 days been waiting for my refund! I'll never order from there again! POOR CUSTOMER SERVICE! And $35.00 is a lot for a person to treat themselves on a fixed income
