“ Great small family run place to takeaway delicious Chinese food. Weve also eaten there a couple of times but the takeaway experience is better. Soup dumplings, beef noodle soup and just about everything else is amazing though the pork ribs havent been particularly good..which was disappointing but the fact that so many others are great makes up for this. Limited parking in the establishment as such. ”
“ Pretty delicious Taiwanese food here. The quality of the food has definitely gotten better in the past few months. Their food has gotten tremendously better and Alvin is super nice to everybody who comes in. I frequent this place with the family, and do takeout sometimes. The lunch special is a steal with the soup and meal. Extremely well priced for lunch special. ”

“ Came in here on a Friday night and was seated almost immediately. I ordered the beef noodle soup and the milk tea. The beef noodle soup in particular was delicious, the broth was flavorful and warm, and a little spicy. There was a generous amount of meat in the soup and it was garnished with the mustard greens, cilantro, and boy choy. The whole soup brought me back to Taiwan! The milk tea was also very rich and yummy! Next time I come back, Ill definitely have to try the stinky tofu! ”
“ We went to Jean and Lee Kitchen because we failed to make a reservation at a nearby Italian restaurant. How lucky were we!! The food at Jean and Lee was absolutely delicious. The menu is varied but not overwhelming. We ordered the Seafood Udon Noodle Soup, 3 Cup Fried Tofu with Japanese Eggplant, and Salt Pepper Calamari. The portions were generous and the flavors perfectly blended. We will be back. There are a host of dishes we cant wait to try. ”
