All hole in the wall places are hit or miss. This place was a hit. The atmosphere is fast pace because they catter to delivery services. Based on that the food is hot hot and you will be given a choice to let it cool down or what happens when you don't wait. It was funny listening to them fighting with each other in the back like when couples get comfortable with having you around. The eating area is not big so take out is where it's at. I made it a point to say thank you for hirer then Average food. The menu may be the same but not quality. It's worth trying. This is my opinion and how I feel . The best is what you say is the best

Never disappointed. BBQ Spare Ribs are a particular favorite here. Everything fried is crispy, but not greasy, which is exactly how it should be. And they're always really nice. I like to go through their online order portal. Also, blown away by their bean curd options. So for those wanting vegetarian fare, please note the bean curd is actually crispy like it’s supposed to be. Other places the bean curd has been soggy, and over the many years I’ve ordered bean curd at Chinese takeout restaurants I’ve never found decent bean curd. I am so pleased I know I can order a general tso or sesame bean curd, and it’ll come crispy just like its chicken version.

I love this place so much. Their food is consistently great. Always flavorful and just the right amount of salt and oil. Some of my favorites are the fried dumplings, chicken fried rice (love how they velvet the chicken), and sesame tofu. The family that runs the place is also great.

Absolutely the best around!. This family has a history in the Burlington area for at least 40 years. The first real high end Chinese restaurant in Burlington (hunans) nextdoor to the pub and brewery was this family. They continue the tradition of the best ingredients and best art of cooking around.. don't pass it up!. Thank you Lee's

Lee’s is my go to for great Chinese food when in Burlington. Menu is large. Portions are very generous. Food is always made to perfection and tastes great. The service is excellent at this family owned and operated business.
