i have been to this restaurant a couple times and the food quality has never disappointed. The pho is really good and the service is always welcoming. read more

I am baffled by the highly positive reviews for this restaurant. My experience was not good. The older lady who took my order which was more than $20 asked if I wanted my change? I said, "I guess not." Ha ha. But I thought I'd get my to go order promptly in return. I was wrong. It sat on a rack for at least eight minutes before a younger waitress asked my name and brought it to me. The quality of the dinner didn't match the price. The beef was fatty and over-boiled and they were chintzy with the vegetables. There were literally about four tiny, tiny strands of carrot in the meal. No condiments were provided, not even soy sauce in my to go order. I don't like to have to leave a negative review but I feel it's my responsibility to report this so that they might do better in the future for other patrons. read more

The food was DELICIOUS and can compete with Houston restaurants. We got the salt and pepper fries as an appetizer and it was DELICIOUS! I would highly recommend this place. The service was also really good. read more

Our party of four adults wanted to try a different Asian place so we chose this tiny restaurant near Weber and Saratoga. It only has about 12 small tables but was bustling when we arrived. We were greeted, given a large menu and then gave our smiling waitress our drink orders. The menu is extensive with familiar Chinese selections plus pho, Thai dishes, Korean dishes, Vietnamese dishes, Japanese dishes and interesting choices like salads and vermicelli bowls. We chose dumplings and soup for appetizers, then seafood fried rice, cashew nut chicken, snow pea beef and chicken lo mein for our entrees. Each plate was delicious, the best Asian food we have had in some time. Huge portions, every veggie was fresh and sauces were excellent. The soup was good (could've been a bit warmer in temperature) and the dumplings were full of meat as were the eggrolls. This tiny place is very clean; no junk on the floors, no tables waiting to be cleaned. They do a brisk takeout business too. Our waitress was very efficient, knew the menu and was kind enough to ask the chef about a couple of special requests from our table. They do have beer and wine available. They have a sign near the cash register that states "Due to inflation we have been forced to increase our prices. We appreciate your understanding and thank you for supporting our business." Prices are high. Total for four entrees, four soups, an order of eggrolls, an order of dumplings, three teas and one water was $94.61 without tip. We did have enough leftovers though for another meal! We will be back soon. read more

Popped in around noon on a Wednesday with a craving for dumplings. I've ordered DoorDash from here before but this was my first time inside. It was bumpin people wise and music wise, a little on the loud side but the playlist was energetic and a good vibe for an afternoon rush. The menu is large and making a decision was the hardest part of the experience. I went with the steamed dumplings, the Korean Fried Chicken wings with a side of Kimchi. Dumplings were not as hot as I would have liked but delicious. Wings were fantastic, the sauce is a perfect balance of hot and sweet and they were crunchy while also being very saucy. The side of kimchi was tasty I do wish the portion was a bit bigger for $6. Service was also pretty good for the lunch rush. Can't wait to try more of the menu! read more

Amazing food. Service was okay could've been better but the food made up for it. Will be back.

Found this hidden gem recommended by a friend. Excellent service and food. Had the shrimp spring roll & chicken fried rice. So very good. read more

Update: I went here again the other day I was fine, then when I sat down and drank their Thai tea, not sure what they poured in it, spoiled milk or dish washing liquid or something but I got the worst stomach bug. The pho was ok. I noticed it was that because I didn't finish the drink then later on the next day after I felt better I finished that drink and felt the Same weird way again. And felt sick and wanting to throw up and have diarrhea or something. It was weird. read more

Everything was spot and and delicious. The staff was extremely nice and on point. The store looked amazingly clean

One of the best, if not THE best Asian food in Corpus. They have something for everyone, and the food is fresh, flavorful, generously portioned. The staff is always accommodating & nice. Amazing for dine in or take out. Highly recommend the beef vermicelli salad! read more

LEI KITCHEN - Vietnamese Near Me - Corpus Christi, Texas

Lei Kitchen off of Saratoga in Corpus. This place was a gem! We went at lunch, and while service seemed slow- I honestly think it's because everything was cooked fresh. We ordered spring rolls and Far East nachos for appetizers. The spring rolls had fresh grilled pork and were served still warm. Not those prepped and chilled spring rolls you get elsewhere.(they were also twice the size of the normal spring rolls, as you can see in the photo both had already been eaten on lol) The Far East nachos were absolute flavor bombs and could honestly be a meal itself. My boyfriend ordered the beef, bok choy and mushroom plate. A simple plate but was absolutely delicious. And I ordered the beef lo mein, also amazing in flavor. Both plates came with the most delicious egg drop soup. A hearty robust flavor, probably one of the best egg drop soups I've had. If you have time to check this little place out, I highly recommend it. We had 4 dishes and an order of egg rolls all for only $37. They have a huge menu, I don't think you'll be disappointed. read more

They have the BEST curry in Corpus! I've had a lot of different Currys here in town and by far the best one! I order here at least once a week! The Thai red curry I recommend to everyone! Also the rainbow Teriyaki is like a big sushi roll on a plate!! Delicious! I work in hotels so when guest ask for any recommendations I send this way!! read more

The food is almost always good. However the waitstaff can be the worst. The menu advertises a choice of soup with the lunch menu, if you don't ask for it they don't offer it and then expect a generous tip. read more

My wife and I were driving through Corpus to go to the beach and were craving Asian. We found Lei Kitchen from the great Yelp reviews and ratings and it didn't disappoint. I tried the Mongolian Chicken. Amazing flavor and just the right portion. My wife had the Grilled Shrimp Vermicelli salad that hit the right craving. Overall super impressed with this local place and totally worth the few minute detour off the highway. read more

The food was fantastic, I was in town and accidently ended up here and the food was amazing. I went back the next day and took my sister and she raved about the food. The waitresses were amazing, the service was quick and efficient. The vibe was great. I will come here everything I am in town. Kudos to the chef, I wanted to bring him out for a round of applause. Thank you read more

Food was not very good I ordered soup and told them no onions and when they took it back it felt like they just took them out on top and gave me the same bowl back and it still had onions but the broccoli on my other meal was raw and unenjoyable the only thing good was the wait staff but other than that would not recommend read more

Highly recommended items throughout the menu. Great staff and team. Never disappointing read more

Tried Singapore Mei Fun. Too greasy and salty ! 5 bucks we've added to make it $21 . The most expensive Singapore Mei fun I have eaten. Service was bad. Water was not refilled and waitress came back three times to ask for payment. The restaurant was not busy but I have to leave because of waitress. read more

NEVER AGAIN. I've been coming here since they opened. Faithfully. Sometimes more than once a week. Sheila is a doll and always makes what I want. But today I got on the wrong side of a gentleman working there that decided to argue about what I ordered. I order the SAME THING THE SAME WAY every week. Don't ever tell a Customer they are wrong. Don't argue with a customer and tell them they don't know what they are talking about. You lost a faithful customer Sheila... too bad in this economy. read more

The food is amazing, we are from AZ visiting, and have been looking for buns since a NY trip. omg they are amazing. Totally will recommend the soup and buns. Will come again. read more

Delicious! Excellent service - when in town will ask for Cindy - very personable and just the right touch of conversation, provided excellent options for our tastes. Pho - one of the best Combo spring roll - huge - perfect blend of flavors and texture. Hope to visit again on next trip to CC. read more

This place has great food and is good for children, though there isn't really space for strollers. Every plate I've ordered has been good, but they are perpetually understaffed. I feel for the waitresses. You can be standing with the hostess placing your order and she will stop, answer the phone and start taking someone else's order. It's pretty chaotic in there. I recommend the honey walnut shrimp. The sauces here are amazing. Tons of flavor and an extensive menu. read more

Yesterday 11/08/2022 stopped in about 3PM, ordered drunken noodles, fried rice and egg rolls. Both myself and my husband received an unacceptable dose of MSG to the point of being poisoned.

Since the new owner took over maybe last year, I was hoping that the chargrilled pork spring rolls would still be there. When I went there to try their lunch specials today, the chinese luck sign was upside down on the front door..first red flag. Ordered some sweet tea which was not sweetened enough and the tea tasted like it was steeped too long. Tried out the pork char siew and rice dish with the egg drop soup. Sadly, the pork was more like thinly sliced pork heavily sauced in hoisin sauce and maybe an off putting soy sauce.... (second red flag) I didn't order it with a fried egg, yet i got one on my plate. Overall, a bit oily than I would like and short grain rice which was dried out almost stale like. The "salad" part of my dish was not dressed. Mostly yellow color lettuce, uneven slices of carrots and two pieces of pickled daikon. My mother had the grilled meat spring rolls which the rice paper were super gummy like, had too much bean sprouts and the meat was super chewy. (Third red flag) she tried the beef with bok choy and shitake mushroom which she got only like 5 pieces of the stem part the bok choy. She couldn't even finish her dried up white rice. Wasn't even hot.. In conclusion, we were terribly disappointed and left unfulfilled after eating here :( read more

Just moved to Corpus from Austin and have been trying to find decent Asian food. After months of being disappointed by countless Asian restaurants I found LEI. The best way to describe this place is the perfect balance of quality and quantity. The food here is the freshest, most tasty, and comforting. I got 4 take out items that the whole family really enjoyed. The Veggie PHO was addictive, my girlfriend got the grilled shrimp vermicelli that was packed with great tasting shrimp. We also got the the bulgulgi over rice which was out of this world, and the shrimp friend rice was also nice. Everything here was a slam dunk. I look forward to dining in when Covid is over, but they're food was unbelievably good for take out! read more

Great food and consistent service. Orange chicken comes in a massive portion and there is always decorations within the restaurant.

We have been back many times - usually once a week! My current favorite is the kimchi fried rice with tofu, spice level 3. The other day I had the bibimbap, and it was also wonderful! Oh and I've had the Far East nachos. So fun and different and yummy! read more
