Customer Review Summary
Reviewers most often return to the portions, described as massive and generous, with one saying a single order covered two nights of dinners and another noting everything arrived hot. Close behind is the food itself, which several call the best Chinese in Portsmouth. One first-time customer calls the ribs unreal, and crispy shredded beef, prawn toast and chicken balls are also named. A self-described head chef calls the cooking fresh, and a few have ordered for years. Staff and owners come up repeatedly as friendly, polite and lovely, including a woman on the phone who warned one customer that the evening was busy. One reviewer felt the inside of the shop could be better, though that did not change their view of the food. Several mention that orders arrive with extra free food and fortune cookies, including a small bonus bag added to one order placed in a rush.

“I've got all my Chinese food from Lee's Chinese restaurant for many many years now when I found their food exceptional, fast & great service, always add extra free food & fortune cookie. Food is well prepared and portions are generous too. All staff are very kind & polite with a great delivery service. Lots of different food on their extensive menu to choose from, care taken with producing all the dishes on menu, cooked well & look great too I won't buy my Chinese food from any other restaurant.”
