    M17. Super Boost

    We had the best time at Lee's Cafe! Took our kids for a New Year's Eve dinner and the reviews did not disappoint. We got there early and the place was already packed with folks ordering take out, as well as starting to sit for dinner. The service was not impacted whatsoever. We ordered appetizers of edamame, miso soup, and crab Rangoon which all came out quickly and was delicious. The kids easily split the sweet and sour chicken and chicken lo mein which is their absolute favorite. My husband ordered the super boost roll and said it was incredible. I ordered the rainbow roll and it was also perfectly done. We were all stuffed, and my kids are already begging us to come back again soon. We will certainly be back again soon to try something else since the menu has so many options.

    Lee Cafe is, without a doubt, the best and most authentic Chinese restaurant near Charlotte! Every time I crave flavors that remind me of home, I'm more than willing to make the drive to South Carolina for it--it's that good. Their menu is full of incredible options, but I highly recommend the intestines, spicy fish, and cold beef filet. Each dish is packed with bold, authentic flavors that are hard to find anywhere else. If you're searching for truly authentic Chinese food and don't mind a bit of a drive, Lee Cafe is absolutely worth the trip. Highly recommend it to anyone who loves real, home-style Chinese cuisine!

    Tucked away in a plaza in Fort Mill. This place been around for quite some time. Finally I get to dine in on a Sunday. I walked in and the place is pack. I wasn't sure if I was at the right place. Stand there for a good 15 mins before we have a place to sit down.. Now my friend is Chinese soo she order soo much food, mostly spicy ones.. I order the Beef Chow Fun and the garlic bok choy. Both are my go too and very good. Service is fine. They're busy so I wouldn't say they are attentive. They do what they can. And the ambiance is very chill. Laid back and definitely nothing fancy. If you're looking for authentic Chinese food.. This is the place since they have a separate menu for that instead of the usual fried rice and egg foo young. They also accept large orders. I have 10 lobsters ordered before for my party. Check them out

    First and foremost I never ever give 5 stars to any places/restaurant's, but this GEM is one of the best Chinese places I ever eating since China town in NYC. Service was on point, food was amazing. Price you can't beat from normal Chinese places. I wished this place was close to me but as usual it's not. lol.

    Get the spicy fish and veggies, also don't be afraid to try the intestines! Flavors are absolutely delish, not 100% big city quality but one of the best locations in charlotte.

    I think this might be the best Chinese restaurant in the greater Charlotte area. I know that it's about 20 minutes away from Charlotte, but trust me when I say that it's worth the drive. This hidden gem is a haven for food lovers seeking a taste of authentic Chinese food . From the moment you step inside, you're greeted with the delicious smell of dishes that transport you straight to the vibrant streets of Asia. From mouthwatering noodle bowls to delectable stir-fries and savory dumplings, each bite is a symphony of flavors. Lee Cafe has a diverse menu that caters to all taste preferences! So if you're ready to impress your taste buds and embark on a flavorful adventure, make your way to Lee Cafe in Fort Mill. Indulge in the richness of Asian cuisine and create memories that will linger long after the last bite. WHAT WE ORDERED: -Spicy Fish & Veggies: This dish combines fried fish and a variety of fresh, crisp vegetables, all bathed in a spicy sauce. -Spicy Twice Cooked Pork: Slices of pork belly are cooked not once, but twice, to achieve maximum tenderness and flavor. -Lobster Fried Rice: Indulge in the luxurious taste of lobster combined with the comforting goodness of fried rice. Diced lobster meat is seamlessly integrated into the fried rice, infusing it with a delectable seafood essence. FOLLOW @zackaryeats on Instagram/Tiktok for more foodie finds

    Great food. Family owned and they appear to be constantly bickering. Not the best service - interaction with servers is abrupt and rude.

    Excellent food, great service and very fair prices. If you like good down home southern cooking, you'll love Lee's Cafe.

Brown Rice , and White rice were brought to the table. We had Chicken Fried Rice , Beef and Rice Singapore Noodles , Chinese Green beans and Pot stickers and Sesame Chicken. I had a great Mountain Chicken - very spicy and delicious Very Good Chinese Food !!

    While quite bland, Great Wall South is a safe option for those that haven't developed their own…read moretaste preferences for Americanized Chinese cuisine (i.e. - people that aren't from larger cities) Ordered through DoorDash, so I can't comment on the service or ambience. ==The Good== Not a lot to love here. The pork lo mein, while also generally bland in the noodle and sauce department, had generous helpings of roast char siu pork that were decently flavorful. This was the only saving grace of the meal. ==The Bad== The wonton soup was lacking a bit in salt, which i understand may be a personal taste preference, but there also wasn't any particularly strong flavor from the wontons so the whole dish just felt dissatisfying. The sauce in the Mongolian beef wasn't very savory so it, too, came off a bit bland. To their credit, the cuts of beef were actually quite good and the vegetables were decent, but without a solid tasting sauce the whole thing falls a part. ==The Ugly== The teriyaki chicken skewers were just chicken with teriyaki sauce poured over them. It seems almost heretical that they didn't bbq these skewers in the sauce. This was the most disappointing part of the meal. Overall, pretty on par for restaurants that have long lost their passion for this game. If you've never had Chinese in Boston, LA or New York, you'll probably like this place. More well-traveled patrons should look elsewhere.
