We ordered the chicken sandwich, which tasted very plain and the chicken was undercooked. We also ordered the Ramen, which my daughter enjoyed, and the corn, which was very liquidy in like a milk and served on a hot skillet but was still cold. The chili shrimp was good if I do decide to come back, which is more likely not I would only order the chili shrimp--the food with more on the bland side. The bathroom was disgusting no paper towels to dry your hands. read more

This place is so awesome. They have the tastiest fried chicken and the vibe is always light and fun. The TVs are playing sports and music videos so there is always something to watch. They have pool tables here in a kinda separate space so it would totally be fun to hangout with friends! The restaurant is super clean and the staff maintains the space consistently. We have been here multiple times because the chicken is so yummy. Also, there's a robot that brings your food sometimes which is cool. P.S. Try Mr. Lee's flavor!! read more

Delicious fried chicken! Good flavor, huge portions and good texture, I think the chicken is double fried. It was very delicious. The ambiance is comfy and casual. Service is great and friendly. Definitely a place for any large group gathering or a family dinner. They also have a nice area for playing pool. read more

They have Kpop blasting in the ordering area when I came in with my friends for lunch. The server was quick with taking our order. When the food was ready, they had a robot come and deliver the food! I had a yangyum sauce and Mr Lee sauced half chicken. Definitely order just Mr Lee sauce all the way next time, it's a perfect combination of all of the delicious sauces, making it a sweet and savory sauce. The Korean fried chicken itself is addicting! Perfectly crispy, moist and flavorful. Mix fries: waffles fries, sweet potato fries, normal fries and onion rings. The maximum variety of sides. A hefty portion too, I would recommend splitting this with another person. Grape cocktail: I expected a soju bottle in my cocktail like some places do it but this is fine too. Chunks of grape at the bottom with soju, not bad. Pretty large interior, you could get a large party of like 10 if you put a couple of tables together. My favorite Korean fried chicken in the area, I would totally recommend this place! read more

I must say.. This is one of the best, if not THE best Korean chicken wing spots in the greater bay area. I believe they brine the wings, and when you bite into it, its nothing short of succulent, juicy, deliciousness. I drive from Hayward to Concord to get these wings with no second thought. My personal favorite is the Honey Garlic. I highly recommend Mr Lee Chicken. Seriously. read more

Excellent fried chicken! Relaxing vibe. Reasonably priced. I'm looking forward to going back!

After years of loyal patronage, I had an extremely disappointing experience. I was quoted a 15-minute wait, only to still be waiting 45-60 minutes later with no food ready. When I asked for a refund, I was only given half of my $55 back -- because a Coke had been opened without my knowledge or consent, left sitting on the counter getting warm the entire time. I ended up paying $22 for a drink I never asked to be opened and never took with me, and left with no food at all. This will be my last visit. Deeply frustrating experience from a place I've supported for years.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​ read more

This is a great spot with a big lot, right by Brazilian bbq. On a random Tuesday for an early bird dinner, this place already had a few tables full of customers eating. The guy at the counter where I paid for my order was super nice and helpful. I ordered from their website and got there sooner than the expected wait time. While I paid for my order, the guy kindly told me what they were working on and that it would be right out. He even offered me water while I waited. I declined just because they were almost done. And about a minute later, the last of my order came out and I was on my way to my destination. I've never had this place before then, and the chicken flavors were delicious. My favorite was the Mr. Lee flavor because it had a little bit of sweet, spicy and savory all in one bite. They have a flavor for everything, and if you can't decide, you can order a little bit of every flavor. I genuinely think you can't go wrong because they have something for everyone, spicy, sweet, savory, plain. Now I can only speak on their quality after some travel time, so I would take my next bit with a grain of salt, but the chicken wasn't as crunchy as I would expect. After being dipped in wet sauce and then packaged in a to go box (they kept some flaps open for air), and then packaged again in a bag, I would expect it to lose some crunch. The fries were good but also soggy by the time we ate them. But again, we had got it to go and then traveled to our location before opening the bag, box, and then eating. Overall, I will definitely come back. Next time I'll do dine in and report back on the quality of the crunch because both the service and the flavor was there. Highly recommend. read more

Can't believe we been sleeping on this spot. :/ We will never get chick from anywhere else the price is good and the spot is really low key with plenty of seating and even a pool table! The service was awesome they check on you and leave you all the perfect amount of time. The food was delicious and the amount given for the price was spot on. We will definitely be back. read more

Over all a good place. It's a bit pricy but worth it. We were craving for some chicken and this place was suggested to us. First impression: There was plenty of parking (off street). There were also plenty of seating inside (we came off peak and there was only one other couple there). To order, you'll have to scan a code and order through your phone. It was actually pretty easy and efficient. The food: We enjoyed the mixed sides (fries, sweet potatoes and onion rings). It was fairly fresh was seasoned well. Definitely a good portion to share. The chicken was great! It was lightly nattered, seasoned well, and tender in the inside. There were a variety of dipping sauces available which was good. There were also different flavors that you can choose from. Our order came to almost $100. There were only three of us but it could have fed 4-5 people, so we took the left overs home. Again, overall a good place to go to if you're craving chicken. There are other places nearby that specializes in chicken, so look at Yelp and read the reviews for all the places to get a gauge if you want to try this place. For us, it's not a "must go to" but that's a personal opinion. read more

If you're going to Wing Stop or Buffalo Wild Wings I feel bad for you, son. I got 99 problems, but Mr. Lee ensures chicken ain't one. You know how they say Asians do everything better? Well, Koreans seem to have expanded that realm to fried chicken. A beautifully crispy skin while still juicy and tender on the inside. You also choose from a myriad of flavors that they toss on top these already well seasoned morsels of perfection. My favorites are garlic, jalapeño, and Mr. Lee's sauce (a sweet, savory, spicy concoction). read more

Pros: Yummy chicken wings! Fries were good, kimchee fried rice was good too! Please was spacious, clean and quiet. Service was good as well. We ordered on the app and some of our food came out on the little robot. Definitely will go back! Con: Chicken sandwich wasn't what we hoped. It wasn't bad but it lacked the flavor all their wings have. read more

First time at Mr.lee's and I had only heard good things about it. We went in on a Tuesday afternoon, not many people there which was good haha. We ordered a full size of bone in wings, half soy sauce and half garlic, side of regular fries and garlic fried rice. Everything came out so fresh and crispy. The garlic fried rice was very tasty; however, it was a bit of a clash with the garlic wings cause personally, too much garlic. Anyways, I loved the fries and the chicken and I can't wait to go back to try more. Their service is great, if you're eating in they come and serve it to you at your table. read more

I absolutely love this place. I've been eating here pretty regularly over the last year and a half, and the food is very consistently superb. Mr. Lee is a treasure and you should absolutely try this place of you're a fan of Korean food. The fried Chicken is SO good (soy sauce is my favorite flavor), the ramen (I like the chicken), and fried rice (I like the spam) are all fantastic, too. The servers are always friendly and they have a robot who sometimes deliver your order (thanks, pick point!). The kpop music is also a treat, and they have pool tables if you're into that! read more

I visited Mr Lee Chicken and thought it was good but not great. Compared to other Korean fried chicken chains, I'd put it right in the middle. The batter was a little on the heavy side. We ordered 20 wings, half just fried and half Mr. Lee. The Mr. Lee sauce was great, a mix of soy, garlic, and jalapeno that was just right in terms of sweetness, saltiness, and spiciness. The place itself is pretty cool, with two pool tables and big TVs playing sports. We had it once before to-go but would definitely recommend having KFC warm and fresh if you can! read more

Mr Lee Chicken - 10 fried and 10 Mr Lee wings - Chicken Wings Near Me - Concord, California

Food was fantastic. Juicy chicken with plenty of very crispy yet light breading. Not greasy. I ordered a half order of wings (10 pc) with half Mr.Lee seasoning and half Yang yum seasoning. I had a side of pickled radish. Total came out to about $23 including tax and tip. The Mr.Lee seasoning had a slightly spicy flavor and very savory aroma of garlic, onion, and jalapeño. A slight hint of sweetness to make it very addicting but wouldn't say the chicken is "sweet." If you prefer savory chicken I would definitely order this one. The YangYum chicken was a very sweet-forward gochujang flavor. Reminds me of sweet chili sauce with richer flavor from the gochujang. Only cons were that the girl at the counter was way overloded. Trying to serve 10+ groups dining in, as well as taking to-go orders, bussing tables, etc. She was literally running trying to serve food and drinks and take orders. I think it's best to go up to pay and get to-go containers rather than wait for her to come after requesting on the phone. The other con is that something happened in one of the bathrooms. Not sure exactly what but the stench was horrid and could be smelled even in the hallway. Thankfully there were 2 bathrooms so I just used the other one. read more

Their flavors and freshness are unrivaled! Their staff is always smiling when I meet them at the counter and it's never too busy or too slow. I'd recommend dining in to enjoy the food hot. Air Fry for a bit if you take it home. read more

Ordered over $100+ of take-away food today. This place has average tasting dishes and chicken pieces, but my golly, they're so overpriced. Also, only got 1 small chicken moo for everything I ordered.

As soon as you walk in it's got a sports bar atmosphere. They got the pool table in a semi closed off area, an actual bar and plenty of big flat screens playing sports and stuff. Service is fast and friendly, the options on their menu is plentiful. They We ordered a whole chicken plain with sauces on the side because the kids don't do spicy. The watermelonade was decent probably won't order that again. The Mr Lee sauce was my favorite i put it on everything lol. Definitely coming back. Only thing that made it not 5 stars is when my daughter asked to use the bathroom, we went and she didn't even use it because it was a mess in there. Said it was wet everywhere I don't think she meant wet from cleaning supplies lol read more

Mr Lee Chicken - Aftermath - Chicken Wings Near Me - Concord, California

Mr. Lee Chicken opened in the vacated Burger King place. it now has a dedicated pool hall room with a sports theme, a main dining area with soju and draft beers available. quick service at the counter post lunch, chicken cooked to order, ready in 20 minutes. offerings: Korean Fried Chicken (choice of wings, drumsticks, drums/thighs, Whole Chicken). flavors: yang yum, honey, soy, parmesan, spicy, garlic, jalapeño, mr. lee. also ramen, burgers, sides, Korean food. eats: wings (10 pieces, 15.99) yang yum flavor (1) pricing similar to other KFC. -wings did travel well as it didn't get soggy. was still very crunchy via the thick coating. insides partly semi-juicy, not totally juicy as expected. forgot chicken is still "cooking" while hot. yang yum too sweet for me... -wings ranged from small to jumbo, no teeny weeny ones... -Mr. Lee implies all chicken sourced fresh daily, cooked to order when ordered. I should have ate it in house but I couldn't eat till later. *the KFC here is better than all the chain franchises who sell defrosted frozen chicken. 4.5 stars-would order again with half garlic whole chicken (not wings) to eat in next time. read more

Ok, this review has been a long time coming. Mr. Lee Chicken is located in the Park n Shop center in the old Burger King location. My family are huge Korean fried chicken wing fans and Mr. Lee Chicken is our go to KFC spot. The chicken is always hot, fresh and crispy and perfectly seasoned. So good! We usually get a full order of the Mr. Lee, and half/half Yang Nyum and Spicy. Sooo yummy!! We also usually get an order of the kimchi fried rice, fries, mandoo (potstickers). Everything is made to order, so expect a bit of a wait if you dine in or call ahead for your order! There's also a billiards area to play pool if that's your thing. The space is bright and trendy. Mr. Lee himself is usually there running a tight ship and providing wonderful service. We usually come in with all of our kids and he's always super accommodating. You have the option of ordering at the counter or using the QR code to place your order from your table which is pretty efficient. We've eaten here quite a few time since the end of April and have never had any order mistakes using the QR code. If there's just one thing I would nitpick-- the restrooms are a little scary. Otherwise, as my littlest would say, 2 thumbs up! Mr. Lee Chicken will always be in our family rotation! Highly recommend! read more

First time here . When I walked in the first thought was , "oh wow it's spacious and CLEAN" I love when a place is clean. I ordered really quickly because I had a 30 min lunch . So I got some water and fries and a chicken burger ! The fries WE COOKED TO ORDER ! And I love that they were fresh and little to non salt . Omg they were RIGHTEOUS THE CHICKEN BURGER -- OMG It was also fresh ! It was sooo yummy . I took 2 bites and I had to take it to go . It was filling . I give it 8/10 because there weren't any pickles lol or they didn't ask what I wanted on the sandwich- burger ! But however it was a great experience and the food was yummy and it's always a win when I get some great French fries ! read more

Solid! Kimchi fried rice had wok taste. So yummy! My favorite dish of today. The jajangmyun was alright. The fried chicken was juicy and tender. We tried the yang yom and honey butter. We wish the yang yom was spicier. It was at a zero spice level. Next time we want to try the different flavors. Prices are reasonable. read more

WORST EXPERIENCE EVER! First, I order the 10 piece boneless chicken lunch special, which comes with rice and a salad for pick-up through YELP. I'm shown that the lunch should be ready by 12:15 pm. I get to Mr. Lee's Chicken (MLC), by 12:30 pm. When I arrived, the guy at the cash register informed me that they'd never received my order because it was made through GrubHub (GH), so of course it wasn't ready and I was going to be late for work. The guy looked at my order, told me it would take another 10 minutes to get ready (it took 20). In the meantime, I called GH and asked them why they said my order was going to be ready at a certain time and the restaurant said they never received the order. While still on the phone, the clerk at GH said she called MLC who told them I'd already received my order, which was true as they handed it to me while I was on the phone and was walking out the door. She said since I'd already received my order, there was nothing they could do and since I "Ordered through Yelp" as a third party, there was nothing they could do anyway. FINE!!! So I get back to the office, open my meal and there is no rice and salad... I call back to MLC and inform them that I'm missing the rice and salad. The guy who I'd spoken to earlier at the restaurant got on the phone and told me that Yes, I did order the 10 piece boneless chicken "BUT" it wasn't a lunch special and didn't come with rice and salad. P.S. (Take a look at the Mr. Lee's Chicken menu on YELP, and scroll all the way down to where it says "Lunch Specials!!!" What does it say that the "10 piece boneless chicken" comes with? I told him that MLC's menu on YELP shows the 10 piece boneless chicken as a "Lunch Special" that comes with rice and salad and that's what I ordered. He told me that he doesn't have anything to do with that menu and to order directly from the restaurant next time. HOW is a regular person supposed to know that when you order something through the YELP app, it goes to GrubHub, who tells you things about your order that the restaurant who's supposed to make the food, doesn't know even about and doesn't even have your order when you arrive for pickup?? How is a regular person supposed to know that if something goes wrong, depending on what it is, such as the food not being ready on time, and the order not even making it to the restaurant until 20 minutes later, that no one will take responsibility for it?? How is a regular person supposed to know that if you order something from the restaurant's menu shown on YELP, via GrubHub, and when you realize that you didn't receive the items that you ordered, and you inform the restaurant, the restaurant tell you " You didn't order directly from us and we don't have anything to do with "THAT" menu so we have no responsibility to fulfill your order??" I called GrubHub back and they eventually said they would refund my order, but I've now wasted all that time from work dealing with this ridiculous problem. My advice, just order directly from the restaurant if you can. I don't think YELP or GrubHub will help much if there's a problem such as this one. Do people know that when ordering through YELP, the order goes through another party, other than the restaurant, so when something goes wrong with your order, YELP, the other party and the restaurant can deny any responsibility and/or point the finger at someone else?? While Mr. Lee's Chicken in Concord makes good chicken, the lack of quality customer service and the unnecessary hassle/confusion makes this a place I'll have to really consider whether they deserve to see my hard earned dollars again. I don't want anyone else to go through this. It isn't worth it. read more

I ordered 2 times and each time ordered different food. In total their chicken is crispy and delicious, but a little bit expensive!

I recently discovered a restaurant on Tic Tock and decided to visit with my daughter and grandson to evaluate the establishment. The food was notably fresh and exhibited a remarkable depth of flavor. In particular, the honey-fried chicken and shrimp fried rice were exceptionally delicious. Overall, the dining experience was characterized by high-quality ingredients and excellent culinary execution. My grandson said it was yummy in her tummy. read more

I want to like it but it's another fried chicken place that is pretty loaded with sauce, no matter which sauce. The hot and spicy sauce was just sweet, not spicy at all. Yungyum sauce was just another sweet soy sauce. No lemon pepper which is my favorite. If I was to choose where to go back for my next chicken cravings, I'll probably head to wingstop instead read more

Upon walking it I was not greeted with a hi or a hello. When he was talking my order he was very short. I asked him (the employee at the register taking orders) are the same flavors for wings available for breast and thigh. He looked back and said with an attitude, "yea." My first mind day walk out because I don't pay or deal with rude service people for no reason. I didn't do it to him. But anywho I smiled and said, "okay cool." I placed my order because I hadn't eaten anything ALL DAY. I order XL nuggets aka boneless (Parmesan dry rub and honey garlic) and a side of fries. The fries taste like high in McDoanlds fries (hot and fries) so those were a HIT The chicken itself was very hot and fresh but the honey flavor was a No Go for me it definitely needed garlic mixed in. I could not taste the garlic. When my order was ready he said, "Thanks you." But didn't speak to me as a paying customer. One thing I did like inside was they have pool tables and a few big screen TVs. It seems like a cool chill spot to change the game of sports bars at too crowded. read more

I can totally see myself bringing a geoup of friends here for comfort food, pool tables, and some alcohol + a good ol time.

Mr Lee Chicken - Chicken Wings Near Me - Concord, California

Fresh, hot, and absolutely delicious! The chicken here is cooked to order -- crispy on the outside and perfectly juicy inside every single time. You can taste the freshness, and it never feels greasy or heavy. Definitely one of the best spots around for fried chicken done right. read more

Man - so, so good. Soy sauce was the one for me. I ordered it fried with the sauce on the side with extra radish. Hit the spot!

I will preface this by saying that I really don't enjoy giving out low reviews. I sincerely tried to find something positive about my meal here, but I just wasn't a fan. I'm super bummed as this place had such positive reviews and I wanted to have that same experience. Maybe my mistake was ordering it to go...? Anyhoo, I got the 8 piece full drum with soy and garlic flavors. First off, I was a little peeved that I had pay $1 for each when most places I've been normally have you select a flavor as part of your options. Second, no banchan of any kind was included - where are the pickled radishes or the cole slaw? Third, the drumsticks were oddly shaped, almost like they were spatchcocked and the breading was so thick. Fourth, the soy flavor was overly salty and just not very good - it took effort to eat 2 pieces. Their saving grace was the garlic flavor, which was mostly honey with the essence of garlic. Lastly, price was a bit steeper than I've experienced at other KFC shops. Sorry Mr. Lee, but your chicken ain't for me. Perhaps it was just an off-night? read more

Mr Lee Chicken - Garlic on top, soy on bottom - 8 piece drum/thigh - Chicken Wings Near Me - Concord, California

I love me some fried chicken, especially korean fried chicken. I'm a huge fan of Bonchon's and Von's chicken so I decided to give this place a shot. My friends and I came here on a Sunday after. As we were arriving, a big party was leaving. It was apparent they occupied the long row of tables that we saw to the right of the shop and them tables definitely needed to be turned over. We posted up at an empty table and after a few minutes, a guy came out with a QR code for us to scan at the menu. They do have a menu posted on their wall but honestly, I prefer a physical menu. The QR code was for the menu and to request for server. Their website wasn't the most user-friendliest but we were able to order what we needed. We shared a bowl of kimchi fried rice and a half/half order of their garlic chicken and yangNyum chicken. We were presented with plastic utensils and a metal pan that had seen better days because they were scratched AF! I presume they previously used metal utensils and they stopped because people were going HAM cutting up chicken. Those pans need to be changed asap because if a nonstick teflon coating has been compromised, the chemicals can flake off into your food! Research 'PFAS' y'all. They should switch over to reusable regular dishware or paper plates because those scratched up pans don't fly with me. The kimchi fried rice came in a metal bowl and spoon. It was garnished with a crispy fried egg and seaweed. The rice had tasty pieces of chicken in it and overall delicious. Good size to share with 3 people. Our chicken came on a metal tray lined with paper. We never received the side of daikon that's supposed to come with our chicken. The chicken that I had were boneless, crispy, juicy and flavorful. My favorite was the garlic chicken, but the yangNyum flavaflav was just as good. My friend was curious about the Mr lee sauce, so we ordered a side of sauce, which was about a dollar. I dipped both chicken flavors into the sauce and it had a smokey light kick to it. Service was slower than molasses. The food took 20+ mins to get to us and there were 2 groups waiting for to-go orders. Im guessing they were slow due to prepping online orders. I used the QR code to 'call for server' twice for the bill until somebody finally came. During our time there, the table from the big group was never cleaned. And it's the first set of tables you see when you walk in. The guy never came back for the payment so I had to walk to the counter to get his attention. Overall, good chicken and kimichi fried rice at a decent price. My friends and I were pretty full. Our server was nice, but service was unsatisfactory due the lack of attention and long wait times. They also need to reevaluate their pans and toss out the ones that are scratched. I'd probably order here again but only for take out. read more

I don't know what has happened at Mr Lee in Concord, but it is not an improvement. This week I had another original 8-piece (4 drum/4 thigh) piece plain fried chicken order. What did they do to their recipe?? The coating was not as crunchy as before, the coating and the chicken meat itself was very salty -- brined to death like Popeye's Chicken. The thigh pieces were shaped like a thick log, rather than the normal thigh shape -- as if either side of the thigh meat had been cut away. So disappointed! read more

Long over due, even if they are new. I tried it when it first opened. Honestly liked their chicken here. It was crunchy and delicious. Though it is slightly pricer than other places. I took one star because the bathroom were super dirty & looks the same as the ones in burger. The space is awesome and nice. Service was attentive and good. read more
