Five stars and then some. Lieu's Bistro is one of those rare spots where the food is excellent and the hospitality feels ancestral. You walk in hungry and leave hugged. The egg flower soup is pure comfort in a bowl. Silky ribbons of egg drifting through a golden broth that tastes like it has stories to tell. It is delicate but confident, warm without being heavy, the kind of soup that resets your whole mood. And the Szechuan salmon? Listen. Perfectly cooked, tender and flaky, wrapped in that bold, slightly spicy Szechuan glaze that dances instead of overwhelms. It has heat, depth, personality. Every bite feels intentional. What really sets this place apart is Peter and his wife. They do not just run a restaurant, they cultivate community. Every time I come in, they show me love like I am family. Not the polite, rehearsed kind. The real kind. The "good to see you again" with meaning behind it. If you want amazing food and an atmosphere that feels like home, Lieu's Bistro is it. Some restaurants feed you. This one embraces you. read more

Amazing service and amazing food! I came here for lunch and had a great experience. I love their lunch specials, especially since they come with soup. Their lo mein noodles tasted great and it was a generous portion. The calamari was nice and crispy and came out piping hot, which was much appreciated! Their new bar area is really nice and gives it an elevated look. They are speedy at lunch hour, so don't worry about your service or food taking too long! read more

The perfect Chinese restaurant for vegetarians! They have so many vegetarian options to choose from, which was such an amazing surprise. They even had veggie dumplings, which typically are only made using meat, so I was thrilled to find this on the menu! And they were delicious, so even better! My husband and I came here with his two aunties and we all shared Fried Rice, Spicy Garlic Tofu and a green bean dish. ALL of these dishes were excellent and very flavorful! Additionally, our server was very patient with us as we were ordering, which got a little complicated at one point. We arrived about 30 minutes before closing, though we were never rushed nor did any of the employees have a bad attitude about that. I don't live in the area, but I will definitely return next time I'm back! read more

Visiting from out of town so my first time here. Very nice dine in Chinese restaurant but of course the take out was busy too and they were very precise. It was pretty crowded for a Monday but with the holidays and all understandable, I was by myself so I sat next to the bar . Bartenders took my order and kept my drinks filled right on queue! Peking Chicken was excellent as well as the egg drop soup. I will definitely visit again in the future! read more

Food was great! Service was wonderful! This is the best Chinese food in the Greenville, SC area. The KungPo beef is our go to dish!!

Made to go order. We were on business trip. All tired of American food, wanted some Asian food. (business trip day 4... miss our food) Hard to do Good Japanese to go, so... I odered here. Close to hotel... and when I see on the Yelp, the Fried rice is "not black" (In japan, good chinese restaurant fried rice NEVER be black.) So... I thought "must be good one" I was RIGHT!! All food we order, so delicious. My boss was so happy to have ASIAN TASTE read more

Took two hours to get our food . Excuse was the kitchen was backed up from all the to go orders . How about take care of the patrons sitting and the about 50 waiting to get seated before Door Dashers . Will not be coming back here as this was more of an above the top money grab at the customers experience. read more

We ordered our food to-go and it was ready in 15 minutes! They always double check the order before sending you home with it. The restaurant was renovated since we were last in and looks great. We ordered the crab wantons, king pao chicken and double pan fried noodles. (We had already eaten some when I took the pictures attached) read more

I absolutely always order from here when I'm in town, but I like to dine in as well, as the space is very nice. Their tofu broccoli is my favorite, along with the sesame chicken. They also have the best hot and sour soup! read more

The person that appeared to be a hostess that took my order was very nice. The dining area and bar look very nice. However, I got the lunch pepper steak with the wonton soup and ordered spring roll. For take out it cost $21.60. The spring rolls were tiny and way over cooked, the wonton soup had ONE wonton in a bath of broth, the pepper steak was nothing special. I found it to be way over salted. So between the high price tag, the portions, and not so great meal only 2 stars. I understand everything is going up but that was a pure rip off for the small amount of lunch received. Won't be back. read more

There was hair in my daughters food and although it ruined all our mills they only took off her shrimp fried rices. Although none of us ate our food because we also had the fried rice. Will not return. read more

Lieu's is great. There are no two ways about it. Started with dumplings and egg rolls. They both were eve good. For the main, she had the Peking Chicken and loved it. I had the Snow White Chicken. Man was it good. I loved. You need to check it out. read more

The food tasted good but my daughter found hair in her fried rice which we all ordered so there was no more eating after that. We ended up paying for a bunch of food that we didn't eat because of the hair. They took the rice off of my daughters bill but didnt care past that. It was our first time going and won't be back. read more

The food is always fresh and delicious. I've had anything bad there. It's the best Chinese food in the upstate South Carolina area.

Finally a restaurant that offers Mu Shoo Chicken on their menu! It was fresh and flavorful as expected. In fact, my husband was even impressed, and said he wants to order this meal the next time we get take-out. Keep it up Lieu! You have yet to disappoint. read more

Great food and wonderful service. We were looking for something off the beaten path and found Lieu's ! It was a home run !! Absolutely delicious!! Pricing is very reasonable!! read more

Five stars bc of the food and taste. My test for certain place is wonton soup. Simple yet can tell A lot about the quality of the taste by it - this place did not disappoint. Had I known I would have ordered a huge bowl! Had the Mongolian beef and very tasty without overpowering garlic or soy- just right and portion size great too! Super low key and seems to be locals' favorite. I can see why. I'd def come Back. read more

Came here for lunch. Got speing rolls, white rice, hot and sour soup, and spicy lieu's chicken. Hot and sour soup is actually amazing. Highly recommend. Spring rolls were good, but incredibly expensive. I wouldn't pay $5 for 2 again. White rice is cooked well, light and fluffy. Spicy lieu's chicken was okay. Salty without too much flavor. Not very spicy. Crisp is nice, and meat - bread content is good. But I would not get it again. The atmosphere is fancy. This is a business meeting/date kind of place. Waiter was prompt, and food came out quickly and perfectly hot. Overall, a good place, more expensive than the food is worth, excellent soup, but moderate entree. read more

Great food and great service. I enjoy the new bar where I can get a drink while waiting for my take out. Nice ambiance.

If I could give this place A negative rating I would. I ordered The beef lo Mei. The Food was soggy and cold ,the rice was dry. I would not recommend this place to anyone. the new owners of the restaurant have no idea what they are doing. I felt very sick after eating I had to go and throw up. read more

Go to the one on Pelham. We've had trouble with gluten free orders, getting all the orders done, and them making it right after goofing up. The original owner is at the Lieu's in Pelham and the quality shows. read more

Incorrect takeout order was given and the staff was not helpful at all. They used to have great service but lately the portions are smaller and the new staff is rude. Could've been handled much better...I'm very disappointed in a restaurant that used to be one of my favorites. read more

Had to stop by my favorite Upstate Chinese restaurant today. I have to stop in at least once a month. Food is always well prepared and tasty. Portion size is large so we normally split the entree. Service is always great. Walter who normally works upstairs is one of the best waiters you'll ever meet. It is always a great experience. And be sure and ask about the Bonanza poster at the back of the bar. Interesting story read more

We have been satisfied customers for more years than I care to admit, never had a less than satisfactory experience dining there. Péter and Frances are wonderful hosts. I would strongly recommend. read more

Food was so-so. My sesame chicken was floating in too thin of a sauce. Tiniest bowl of wonton soup Ive ever seen with one tiny wonton in it. Service was very good though. read more

Not bad, but nothing special. Reasonable prices and quick lunch service. The food is very standard, def not authentic but Americanized yet tasty. The place looks like it may have been a Japanese teppanyaki restaurant in the past because it's quite big and looks like there may have been a teppan grill with a large hood in one of the main rooms. It's fine, if you have a craving for some old school Chinese and you're in the area it would do! read more

We've only come here for lunch but we really enjoy the food, the service and the space! The lunch special is a good deal - the dishes are various prices, most seem around $12, but the special includes a soup and rice. Their hot & sour soup is very good, and I like the egg drop soup also. The entree is a nice portion of food, to the point that I can't always finish it, and have to take the extra home. The lunch specials include a nice range of options and maybe 12-15 or so dishes to choose from, so, lots of options. Food always seems to come pretty quickly, served hot, and service is reliably good. The space is also very beautiful. Parking is plentiful. We drive across town for Lieu's and it's worth it, definitely one of the best Chinese food restaurants in Greenville. read more

Each of our meals was fresh & delicious and a good size portion. Service was also very attentive.

I went w coworkers during the lunch hour. I ordered an appetizer and unfortunately it came when we were half away done w our meals. Their crab Rangoon are made w real crab vs imitation. The food was good as well as the service. I would like to return to try other things on the menu. read more

The food and the service were outstanding. The ambiance of the restaurant was impeccable.
