I used Mama Lee Kitchen catering for a Lunar New Year dinner for 28 people, and it was highly…read moresuccessful!! I wanted to showcase my Taiwanese heritage for the dinner and was excited that Mama Lee's was available to cater. It was hard to decide from the variety of their catering menu because so much of it reminded me of my childhood favorites. I ordered the following, and of course it was way too much, but folks were excited to take home leftovers: - Popcorn Chicken - Pork chop egg fried rice - Chicken cutlet egg fried rice - Qua Bao - Veggie Chow Mein - Crispy Fried Tofu Sticks (with garlic dipping sauce and pickled cabbage) - Seasonal Veggie & Mushroom The popcorn chicken, egg fried rice, and veggie chow mein was the kids' favorites, along with the winter melon lemon tea, which David and Marysa threw in for being their first customer in Pleasant Hill. The adults enjoyed everything that was offered, and were excited to try many new dishes for the first time. Overall, the flavors were reminiscent of my memories of eating in Taiwan, and that was a huge plus! Communication was easy, and the day of the event, they sent pics of the food. Not only did they include delivery over $350, the food was brought in piping hot & they helped set up the food. I am excited to work with David and Marysa again for next year's dinner, and I would highly recommend Mama Lee's catering for your next event!!

Door dashed this after a meet up with friends and it was delicious :)…read more Braised beef and potatoes: 9/10 omg the beef was so so tender, potatoes were perfectly cooked with bell peppers, onions and herbs. Sauce was a tad oily but so so flavorful. Would definitely get it again! Pork steamed buns: 8/10, not what I expected, i thought it'd be a red marinated pork but it was more of a seasoned meat ball in a bun. I didn't hate it and it paired well with the sauce of the braised beef :) Signature spicy wonton: 9/10, different for sure. I was expected more chili chucks but the oil itself was different from what I've had before. Love that they packed the wontons and oil separate for me to pair at home. Honestly, I'd come back and dine in. I saw things on Yelp that weren't options on Door Dash. All my dishes felt different from other places I've been with similar menu items. Would love to come here again, service was quick and interior was pleasant ^_^

For dine in, we ordered 2 Lan Zhou beef noodle soups with small flat noodles, chili oil wonton, and…read moresoup dumplings. To go, we ordered 2 braised pork pita burgers and 1 chili oil noodles. The small flat noodles were a bit thicker than I would have liked and the soup needed a little more flavor. The chili oil wonton were saltier than I would've liked but the dough had a good consistency. The soup dumplings were ok. 1 braised pork dumpling had a much stronger star anise flavor which was overbearing while the other was perfect. I was actually hoping for the pita part to be more like the style that has crispy layers but it was filling. The chili oil flat noodles were OK. Overall, I've had better hand pulled noodles and I prefer beef broth soup that has a more richer flavor.

It was a battlefield at the dinner table, and we annihilated. Staff were friendly, helpful with the menu, and the food was a great value for what you get.

I am so surprised I've never reviewed Ice Monster, because we were here for an event many years ago…read moreand we absolutely adored their sugary sweets. I've been on a shaved ice kick recently and decided to drop in and try Ice Monster's coffee shaved ice - and it did not disappoint. It was soft and light and just divine. You order from a tablet at the front, but their service was friendly and helpful when delivering the food, and there is plenty of seating out front. We've also had items delivered a couple times, and they're always well packed and in great condition (not melted) when we receive them. All in all we'll definitely keep ordering from Ice Monster and have been loving their frosty wares!

Had to try the original to start; they also make several other flavors. The drinks were refreshing and tasty. One odd moment was when asked for sweetness level, I replied with regular 100% and the staff member (owner??) was uneasy about it, and persuaded me to let her make it a certain way, "her way". It was good, she knows her craft but when I asked what percentage it was exactly so I would know how to order it in the future, she basically couldn't really answer the question, said some stuff and ended it which was just kinda weird lol. Anyway, I like that they have lavender milk tea! Nice and floral, refreshing. Their black milk tea is made with earl grey which was nice and different. The boba was nice and chewy.

I had a really upsetting experience ordering from here through Uber Eats…read more I ordered wonton soup and chow fun, and had my partner pick it up on his way home. As I was serving the soup, I noticed something unusual. When I picked it out and placed it on the counter, it was clearly a yellow worm. Completely shocked, I contacted Uber Eats customer service. They only offered a refund for the soup, not the chow fun, because the issue wasn't visible in that item. But honestly, how am I supposed to feel comfortable eating anything else from the same order after finding a worm in one dish? I then called the restaurant to report what happened, and instead of addressing the seriousness of the issue, the manager asked what we wanted them to do and even offered free food. That response was disappointing and didn't feel appropriate given the situation. It's unfortunate because we've ordered from here before and the food was good, but after this experience, we couldn't bring ourselves to eat the rest of the meal. Dinner and our appetite was completely ruined and it came with a price.

I used their online ordering system to set up a pickup, and the whole process was a total breeze--my food was ready exactly when I expected it. I ordered the Unagi Don and the eel was cooked perfectly; it was so tender and the glaze was spot on. I also tried the Katsu Curry, and I was actually surprised by how crispy the chicken stayed even after the drive home. The curry sauce was rich and had such a great flavor. I couldn't resist getting some boba too. I went with the taro and classic milk tea, and the pearls were exactly the right amount of chewy. Also, I have to mention the little duck mascot on the cups. I think it's the cutest thing ever. I'll definitely be making this a regular spot for when I want a solid meal!

It's nice to have a place that's still serving food and drinks later in the evening. The braised pork rice is really flavorful and comforting, and the ramen is surprisingly good too. I originally came for the milk tea, but the food ended up being just as impressive. The drinks are always fresh, and there's a good variety to choose from. If you're looking for a late-night meal or a place to grab milk tea with some satisfying food, I'd definitely recommend giving this place a try.
