My husband and I got some takeout at Lee's Kitchen for a picnic at a nearby park and overall we were pleased.
I got the L2 Lunch Special ($9.95) which consisted of General Tao Chicken, plain fried rice and an egg roll. My husband got the C4 Combination Plate ($11.95) which was Sweet and Sour Pork, Pepper Steak, plain fried rice and an egg roll.
The General Tao Chicken was excellent. It had lean chicken breast meat, no fatty nor gristley bits. The sauce was sweet and tangy, but not spicy at all. I would have liked a bit more spiciness to it. It also doesn't come with any vegetables. I saw some pictures that it came with broccoli, but I guess that's only if you buy it a la carte and not in a combo (?)
They weren't kidding around when they said "plain fried rice" it was literally rice fried with soy sauce, absolutely no vegetables or anything else. I thought they meant like no protein in the fried rice, but at least some peas or carrots. Nope! So needless to say, I found the rice very boring. It was ok, not too salty, but really unexciting.
I found the egg roll disappointing. It was filled with mainly bean sprouts (which I hate). It had some carrots and cabbage in it as well. I'm pretty sure it didn't have any meat in it, or if it did, it was very minimal that I couldn't see nor taste it. However, it was hot and crispy. If you don't hate bean sprouts, you'll probably like it more than I did.
I had a taste of the Sweet and Sour Pork and Pepper Steak. The Sweet and Sour Pork was similar to the General Tao Chicken, but was pork instead of chicken. The Pepper Steak had vegetables in it, which was great. It had bell peppers (red and green), onions, and carrots. The beef was tender and the vegetables were still a bit crunchy which I liked, I don't like it when they are too mushy.
Service was courteous and efficient. My food was ready in like 10 minutes.
It's mainly a takeout business. There is a counter inside facing a wall where you can sit and eat, but I would say that would be out of necessity only because the place is small and you would have people coming in and out to pick up orders, so not the best environment to eat in. At the time of our visit, due to Covid-19 Pandemic restrictions, you couldn't eat in anyway.
The restaurant is in a plaza. It's right between Popeye's Chicken and Freedom Mobile. Lots of free parking.
It's the only Chinese food I've had in Brockville, but I'd say it's a very good choice. read more
