    Philly cheesesteak
    Veronica Y.

    Really delicious, left feeling guilty for all the fried food and fat I put into my belly. But only semi-guilty because I would totally do it again. Great portions, great prices. Bread was soft, meat was flavored well, veg toppings were fresh.

    I am on a road trip and stopped here. The food is absolutely amazing. I do not regret eating at this restaurant. The service was great and the people were kind. The Ambiance was really basic but amazing. Definitely recommend. 5 stars

    We first visited Lee's almost 5 years ago and every since then I've been wanting to come back! We finally made it back today and we were not disappointed !The burgers are homemade and just delicious... reminds me of when I was a child! I also LOVE the ambience of the original dining room We tried something new today, the Green chili and cheese tots, they were Super tasty!! Can't wait to bring our sons back here to have one of the best burgers in the Austin area

    Lee burger, best one I've had! Lee would be proud!!

    Great food and great burgers. Great chicken fried steaks also. Since it's been taken over bye now owners they have brought back the pride in food that Lee had when he was still alive. Lee would be proud I think. They made the Lee burger better!

    Had a great lunch here today at this classic sandwich shop with a diner feel while visiting friends who live in the area. The food is great. Service was friendly and fast. They serve Burgers, sandwiches, cheesesteaks and gyros! Don't miss this place!

    Oh my goodness! Just had a delicious 4-napkin burger, onion rings and fried okra for the sides. The bun was grill-toasted, 1/3 pound juicy beef (seemed bigger), melted cheese, and piled high with fresh veggies! Also, my burger was wrapped in the quintessential red and white checked wrapper. Cute place, very nice staff, and good food. Their menu included pizzas, chicken sandwiches, chicken fried steak sandwiches, and I did not even read the back! Definitely recommend!

    Burnt pepperoni pizza

    This place always disappoints. As you walk up to the register, the grease/mold all over the "kitchen" area is hard to miss... thought I'd give 'em another try out of convenience-Ordered 2 pizzas (1cheese/1pep) thinking it would be hard to mess that up. Pep was charred. Literally the gas station across the street makes better pizza. Smh

    Awesome mom and pop local burger joint - if ever back in the area I'm going to be brave and go for double meet! Excellent burger and curly fries!

    Small place with a pretty rough around the edges atmosphere. Food was fair. Not great but not too bad.

    Return visit. Yes, they still "oil" their pizza. No, I'm not ordering it. I had the pasta with meat…read moresauce. It was quite good. There was enough for me to take 1/2 home for a second dinner. Their bread was fresh and it was a delightful Sunday night dinner. I also had a glass of Chianti which hit the spot. Our server was excellent. She was smart, accommodating and made the meal enjoyable.

    This is my second visit to this Italian restaurant in Lakewood. The food was exceptionally good the…read morewine was a house wine white and was absolutely wonderful from I also ordered the shrimp Italiano and it was a white sauce and it had incredible capers with bell pepper which spinach it was really really delicious. I also ordered the fried cheese sticks that were absolutely wonderful and the bread was seasoned very well because I love to cook breads at home this bread was cooked with love trust me on that. Also the caper's gay the shrimp dish an incredible seasoned taste that was extremely delicious I'm gonna order this dish again when I return next time. So it wasn't too busy today and I want everyone to understand that you can always be able to park very easily in this parking lot. I highly recommend this location and I want everyone to enjoy and also put your 2 cents in put in a review on what you feel should be adequate as a review. The ambiance is wonderful especially the inside and even when you sit outside you get a nice breeze very nice outdoors.
