" If you enjoy authentic Asian food, you need to try Lee Chen! Our experience was fantastic, starting from the fresh meals to the delightful service. The braised pork was particularly amazing and incredibly tender. The staff suggested a few dishes to us, which were spot on! The ambiance was vibrant and felt like a great community spot. I can't wait to come back and try more items from their menu! " (*Curated Review*)

" I recently tried Lee Chen Asian Bistro, and while I enjoyed certain aspects, there were a few downsides. The food quality was definitely high; I particularly loved the black pepper beef dish as it was cooked perfectly, but the portion was smaller than I anticipated for the price. The service was on point, with the staff regularly checking in. The restaurant was clean and had a nice atmosphere, though it felt a bit cramped when it became busy. I would still recommend it for a nice night out. Just remember to consider sharing the dishes if you’re hungry! " (*Curated Review*)

" My visit to Lee Chen Asian Bistro was unforgettable! The variety on the menu is fantastic, and the flavors are incredibly authentic. Everything from the dumplings to the fried rice had the right balance of spices. The ambiance was inviting and appeared very well-kept. Though we encountered a slight delay in service when the restaurant got busy, our waiter was courteous and attentive otherwise. Price-wise, I think it’s fair given the quality of the dishes. I look forward to another visit soon! " (*Curated Review*)

" I've been to lots of Asian restaurants but Lee Chen Asian Bistro stands out! Their Sichuan beef noodle was a treat; the broth was rich and flavorful. I love how they embrace tradition with their recipes, showcasing authentic flavors that remind me of home. The service was excellent - our server was knowledgeable and made thoughtful recommendations. The ambiance was lively, and I appreciated the decorative elements that created a comfortable dining environment. I'll be back soon! " (*Curated Review*)

Our server was kind, quick, and made the whole experience enjoyable. The atmosphere had a cozy yet lively feel. However, the portion sizes were lighter than I expected, especially for the price point. I would certainly recommend this restaurant to anyone craving authentic flavors. " (*Curated Review*)

" What an experience at Lee Chen! The dumplings and crispy fried tofu blew my mind! The atmosphere was upbeat, filled with laughter and friendly chatter. Our server was attentive, adding to the wonderful experience. The only minor downside was that I felt some dishes could have been spicier, as I prefer the heat! Overall, a great first-time visit, and I will definitely be back for more! " (*Curated Review*)

" I recently visited Lee Chen Asian Bistro, and I must say, the experience was remarkable! The crispy salt and pepper chicken was a standout dish; it had the perfect balance of seasoning without overpowering the natural flavors of the chicken. The service was prompt, and the staff was friendly, making us feel at home. The atmosphere was vibrant, and the décor added to the overall dining experience. The best part, however, was the complimentary sesame balls we received as dessert, a delightful end to our meal. I will definitely return for more! " (*Curated Review*)
