You just can't get a more authentic Chinese food in Madera than from Lee. Easy way to tell is whether they have Chinese written on the menu. In additional to all those same old Americanized Chinese food they also have other authentic options like 水煮鱼，辣子鸡，京都骨，星洲炒米粉. Also Great service and environment.
Driving through town and decided to try this spot out. I could tell this place is a local favorite by the amount of people eating there on a Monday after the lunch rush. And the food and service did not disappoint. Definitely worth a try!
This has to be the best Chinese place I've been to in the madera area thats cheap and gives you a ton of food. Its always busy with to go orders we always eat in which is nice, usually only ones in there. Everything is amazing and tastes great. The staff is always friendly and have no problem answering questions about items. it is definitely a must try inside is quiet tv plays Chinese version of American idol or the voice.
I really liked this Chinese spot in Madera ranchos Very yummy and HUGE portions The chow mein was my favorite and kung pow chicken we also ordered orange chicken and fried rice Everything was cooked very well and we had a ton of leftovers so probably will order less next time However the staff was very nice, restaurant was clean with a ton of seating, and the service was very fast :)
Great food, great service; consistent and they have good portions. The Chow Mien is very tasty, the Broccoli Beef I like the crunchy Broccoli and not too soggy! The people make the place; I'm a regular when I come back from my travels to the area.
