The chicken was pretty good and was fresh. My biscuit was buttery and soft and the mashed and gravy was tasty. I went through the drive through and it was fast and they were nice. read more

It's really cold out. I was craving comfort food but didn't feel like cooking. This pot pie fulfilled the craving - flaky crust, juicy chunks of chicken, and we'll seasoned gravy. read more

1st the service was terrible! Rude ladies working the counter made the experience worst. Add the lack luster food and I should have gone and gotten a salad ! This was the biggest waste of a cheat day ever. I understand being from Chicago I have a high standard for food but KFC is better than this! read more

Lee's Famous Recipe Chicken - Three-piece combo - Fast Food Near Me - St. Louis, Missouri

Staff was happy and prompt on one of the busiest chicken days of the year (mother's day). Didn't pack my order ahead until I got there, but that was better, they had plenty of chicken and that made sure it was still hot. read more

Hmm......how do I put all this. I think it's all been mentioned already. The chicken is up to Lee's quality. I have never had a problem with all of the visits we've had there. Only once did I have sub-par chicken strips that seemed to have been there for a little while because they were a little chewy and the breading/coating wasn't very crispy. The sides are never really good which is one reason they lose a star on my review. The mac and cheese has always been dry and gross. The green beans are almost always soggy. That sort of thing. Except the coleslaw. That seems to be consistently good. My guess is that they just open the package and keep it all cold as opposed to having hot sides that sit there for a long time. My real issue comes with the service. More often than not the employees always seem short and booooorderline rude. They never seem to be in a good mood save a few times we've been. They are very often difficult to understand at the drive up speaker and things get messed up. A few times I've not gotten everything I asked for and/or gotten the wrong thing. So that definitely merits one point less than a five star. Go and get some food, the chicken is good, but don't expect top notch service and be wise about the sides you get. Just keep in mind that there's a good chance they've been there sitting in the warmer for a very long time. Four stars and I'm being generous not giving them three. read more

All I have to say about this location is SAD and SORRY !!!! Last time I purchased food the biscuit was hard as a brick the chicken pieces were small and the mashed potatoes was runny. I have thrown so much food away that I bought from this place it is ridiculous. Keep driving, don't stop!!! read more

Very good food.. very nice employees.. and they food is always straight off the fryer.

Friendly employees really make a difference. Very clean and even had holiday music playing which was great and cheerful. Food was great too. Keep it up ladies you all are doing a great job. read more

I came here for lunch yesterday roughly after 3, order the Jumbo chicken meal , the green beans wasn't very good and the wedges as I order fresh was not . I worked for a Lees You can do better ! read more

I've definitely been sleeping on their baked chicken...absolutely delicious. Also, this location is pretty consistent, so. No complaints. read more

Lee's Famous Recipe Chicken - a meal in a styrofoam container - Fast Food Near Me - St. Louis, Missouri

Lee's Fried Cornish Hen House or Lee's Quail should be their new name. The USDA identifies fryer chickens as at least 5 weeks old and up to 10 weeks. My recent order had legs smaller than wing drummies I've had in the past. I'm thinking these chickens were 3-4 weeks old. Lee's should be embarrassed for serving such small pieces. I will not be back. read more

the best!!!! so good consistently and well maintained. good chicken and biscuits, and the sides are great

Haven't been to Lee's chicken in many years. Today I came to this location and had a coupon for a 3 piece meal. The lady told me I could get up to 4 meals on one coupon so I got 2 meals. I got the crispy spicy and the oven roasted chicken. DYNAMITE!! The sides and the chicken is so freaking delicious! I also want to say how nice all of the staff were even while being super busy. The corn on the cob was the bomb! So juicy and sweet. I also got the mashed potatoes & gravy, okra a dirty rice. All very very good. read more

Stopped there 4/19 around 7-8pm, initially pulled up the the drive thru and was yelled at through the intercom on "What did you want??" When I asked for a moment to look over the menu, the worker huffed through the speaker again rushing me to order, shortly after she replied "chicken is going to take 25+ minutes." I replied that was fine because I got off late so didn't have the time to cook. When I tried to order she yelled through the speaker again how they were out of fries. I ended up just leaving and going to the S. Jefferson location who were way more pleasant. read more

Lee's may be a chain, but they offer up some good friend chicken. My favorite is their crispy and I always order the Breast Meal. It includes one very large breast, with a biscuit and as my sides I choose mashed potatoes with brown gravy (they give you a choice here) and cole slaw. For a beverage, I always go with their Sweet Iced Tea. It is done in a true Southern style. My advice to you is do not turn your nose up at Lee's because it is a chain. Give them a chance, they do chicken right. This location is always extremely clean and the staff is courteous and friendly. I never do fried chicken at home, it is the one meal I always let someone else make. read more

So they famous for chicken huh... But I will pass on the chicken! Lee's is a great place to get a country fried steak dinner with biscuit and gravy. That's what I get each time I visit. Oh I love the sweet tea by the gallon and the apple turnovers because you can get 2 for 99 cents and they are the bees knees. Now they deep fry the country fried steak and its so good I wonder why Lee's is not famous for the country fried steak because its the best in the business. read more

I really want to know how hard is it to take a simple order? It was later in the evening and maybe 2 people ahead of people ahead of me my auto was real simple how does one f*** that up? Do you know how annoying that is to get home and have your mouth ready for some s*** that aint in the Box? Not only did I repeat my order twice and she also read it back to me, she STILL gave me the wrong sh.t. I guess the pademic has made these people slow as f*ck!. She charged me for the correct sh*t but gave me the incorrect s*** in my bag. Not to mention she kept talking over me rushing my order, that's the problem these people get these little mediocre positions and think they are on top of the d*mn world! This is not the 1st time they have done this and I know people make mistakes, but if you keep making mistakes now I have to assume that it's on their end and not mine, but whatever I won't be back there. I'm pretty sure they don't care and I don't either!Always the hood chicks with the "I own the place" attitude, smh. I didn't take a picture of the food because I gave it to my dog. read more

Lee's is definitely my choice of places to go for fried chicken, and it's been this way for quite a while. while it isn't the greatest, they do offer good tasting chicken at an affordable price. I like the fact they offer several different styles of chicken, with the famous recipe being the best choice of all their different styles of chicken. Another item that Lee's is famous for is their sweet tea which can be bought by the gallon. another favorite from Lee's is their golden delicious biscuits, a great addition to any of their many food deals.. read more

Lee's Famous Recipe Chicken - fried chicken and a biscuit - Fast Food Near Me - St. Louis, Missouri

I want to give 4 stars but there's a woman with really really bad actitude. She was yelling at us the whole time. This was on Tuesday November 16. read more

Went here with my 3yr old daughter & husband! I give it a 3 because of the friendly cashier, other than that it would be a 2! The crispy+spicy checken is WONDERFUL, its moist with a little bit of a kick! The Green Beans are the best side item, seasoned perfectly! Stay away fromt the mashed potatoes, no flavor! As for the rock, excuse me, buscuit...it was cold & hard! Kids menu is scarce, I just ordered a 3 piece and fed her with me! Not kid friendly at all! read more

Lee's Famous Recipe Chicken - the front of the restaurant - Fast Food Near Me - St. Louis, Missouri

My wife and I went to pick up chicken dinners at Lee's Chicken on South Kingshighway tonight. First time in years since we have been there, and now I don't know why we waited so long. The facility was clean, freshly painted, they waited on us the minute we walked in. And as it should be, the food was great. Don't know if these are privately owned franchises, but if so, this owner is doing a great job. Will definitely go back again soon. read more

I am borderline embarrassed to be writing this review for a fast food fried chicken place. I tend to pride myself on the fact that I eat healthy and don't eat fried food. However, I have caved a time or two... And when I do--- it's all because of Lee's! I am from the deep, Deep South (think: Honey Boo Booland) where everyone knows how to fry up chicken (egg, buttermilk, flour, salt and pepper). I had never heard of Lee's before moving to Missouri-- but let me tell you, they do their chicken right! The prices are very reasonable and I am always impressed by the quality of workers. They all seem to have pleasant demeanors. If your in the mood for a high fat, artery clogging meal-- I recommend Lee's for that! read more

Guys please don't eat here food is disgusting and workers are rude in top of that the place isn't clean the tables aren't wiped and they got my order wrong read more

whoever they have running the window, needs to be a cook cause she doesn't know how to interact with other people& make it pleasing in anyway. whewwww will not be back read more

This is one of the cleanest restaurants that I've ever been to in St. Louis. The food was fresh and quickly prepared. I definitely will return to this restaurant. It's nice to find a place that is very well Managed and has good food. read more

Called the South Kingshighway location in St Louis three times no answer, left message asking if they were open no return call Called other store and they said all locations were open ( it was July 4th), lady was very polite and professional. I Drove to the location where i normally receive friendly, professional service and I noticed the Large main "Lees sign" light wasn't turned on, so i mentioned it nicely to the lady that asked to take my order. She told me I was wrong and that the "menu" lights were on or something to that effect. So i politely mentioned that I meant the large Lees sign to which to again told me I was wrong (immediately sounding aggravated with me) and asked " Did you want to place an order" ? So I ordered the 10 piece dark meat special spicy and as I placed my order she couldn't seem to get it right at first and each time i needed to repeat myself by the sound of her voice she was just getting angrier. I work with the public ( and I also used to work for Lees) and i'm well aware of how to de-escalate a situation but this lady just seemed to be having at minimum, a really bad day or possibly she shouldn't work with the public, as it doesn't seem to be her thing. When I pulled up to the window I asked (again nicely) if they were short handed or extra busy today and she said "no" and asked why i was asking. I told her that i had called three times and left a message and got no response. I was matter of fact the whole time. at the end I asked her name. When I got home I noticed that I didn't get the spicy 10 pc that I ordered but instead got a 10 piece famous. If I didn't know the owner and his high standards and was just another customer, I would have likely seem this situation differently. Because everything about this experience told me that Lees didn't want my business as they couldn't answer their phone/return a call, didn't have their lights on, treated me rudely when offered a helpful suggestion and acted angrily towards me when I did nothing but try to place an order. And to top it off, they got the order wrong! I know this isn't the way the owner want his stores to operate ( I used to work with him) , but I wont be back to the Kingshighway location, I never want to deal with employee "Charcetta P" again. Ticket # 28, July 4 2020 Unit 5718 9:23 pm total amount $18.43 read more

This place is slow , always out of something, oven rosted chicken, soaked in Grease, luke warm, takes forever to order food in drive through. Even when not busy. LAZY STUPID inconsiderate ass wipes . Last order the box was so soaked with oil, the OVEN ROSTED chicken, if not for a plastic bag chickes would of fell through. Prices are very high I can eat a sirloin steak cheaper. This used to be a good chicken place. Not anymore. I have heard stories that workers use the bathroom and don't wash their hands. I have entered the bathroom after the worker just walked out. Sink was dry as a bone. Smelled like a Buffalo farted. I guess this would explain the diarrhea and stomach pains I have gotten in the past after eating their chicken read more

It's fast food chicken. BUT it's the best fast food chicken! I admit I am stuck on a cycle of eating the chicken strips. They are bigger in size and flavor than any competitor I have tried. The fried okra is very good as is the corn. Add a few of those salty biscuits and you have an awesome meal! My only complaint is that they ask what dipping sauce you want and what they say is honey is NOT honey.... I mean would it kill them to pay a couple pennies for real honey? read more

Well I love Lee's so I decided to stop and try this location. The employees were very nice and got my food ready very quickly. But I got home to find the smallest leg I have ever seen in my family's box and the chicken was a little on the soggy side. (Photo posted) Unfortunately this turned me off this location. I will go back to my old location now. read more

Lee's Famous Recipe Chicken - My unfortunate, tiny, soggy chicken leg. - Fast Food Near Me - St. Louis, Missouri

This place is horrible. It's close to home which is the only reason I come here. Be prepared to have the wrong food. Also be prepared to wait longer than necessary... 8 minutes ends up being 22!!! Annoying. read more

I saw Steven's review yesterday and had a hankerin' for fried chicken so I gave this place a try. We ordered several different pieces, 2 sides and a couple of bisquit's. I also got a sweet iced tea to go. OMG!! This ice tea is the best!!! After gulping a few sips of that mighty fine tea, I ran back in and got the gallon size. Man, that is some good stuff!!! Chicken was OK, sides were good but that ice tea was GREAT!! read more

The chicken tastes good but if you ask them to make fried pickles be prepared to wait for up to 20 minutes.

I like the fried chicken here; probably my favorite in St. Louis. It is also quite affordable too. I usually order the 10 pieces dark meat box for around $11. One star off because their spicy flavor is not spicy at all, but still tasty. read more

The chicken pot pies are surprisingly good and large. But the fried chicken selections are way too salty :-(

This location has some of the most amazing staff I've ever had the pleasure of meeting. I love going here! Keep up the good work!

The staff at this location are so very, very helpful. Had 3 blind people order chicken and other sundry to dine in and they were so very patient with reading the menu and helping bring drinks and plates to the table. It did not freak them out that there were many questions and they went above and beyond what they needed to do. The sweet tea was wonderful and the chicken was not overly greasy...will definitely be back again. read more

Food was good, but I was really amazed at how nice the people were. Both ladies had a smile and they were extremely personable. One even came over to my table and asked if I wanted a refill on my drink. Blew my mind!!!! read more
