" I recently took my family to Le Lai, and we were all impressed! The dishes were flavorful and generous in portion. The restaurant has a quaint feel to it, reminiscent of family dinners when I was young. The service team did a great job keeping our drinks full! There were a couple of items that could have been better, but still a great experience overall. " (*Curated Review*)

" Le Lai had high praises from my friends, so I was really looking forward to trying it. Unfortunately, I found their signature dishes to be somewhat bland. The service was friendly, and the place was clean, but I can't overlook the lack of flavor in my meal. I hope it was just an off day, as I plan to give it another shot. " (*Curated Review*)

" I stumbled upon Le Lai and went in with hopes for some good Chinese food. Luckily, I was not disappointed! The entrees were fresh and flavorful, especially the Kung Pao chicken. The restaurant was quite packed, which added to its charm. I did have to wait a bit for a table, but it was well worth it. I highly recommend it to anyone nearby! " (*Curated Review*)

" What a wonderful find! I've been to countless Chinese restaurants, but Le Lai truly stood out. I strongly recommend the manchurian chicken and the salted fish fried rice. Both dishes were bursting with flavor and had that homemade touch. I didn't mind the wait time; it was busy, which is always a good sign. I left with a full stomach and a happy heart. " (*Curated Review*)

" Going to Le Lai was a delightful surprise! The salted pork chop was cooked perfectly, and the flavors were spot on. You really feel like you're eating authentic Cantonese food rather than the usual Americanized versions. The restaurant is unpretentious, but that adds to its charm. I did notice a few cleanliness issues which is why I couldn't rate it higher. However, the food makes it a place I would happily revisit. " (*Curated Review*)

" Le Lai is a delightful little gem hidden in Chinatown! The food was delicious, especially the duck dishes, which taste unlike anything I've had elsewhere. The service was a bit too quick, and I felt rushed, but the food made up for it. I'll definitely be back for another round to try more of their extensive menu! " (*Curated Review*)

" Had a mixed experience at this restaurant. The portions were generous, which was a plus! However, the service could be improved as it felt a bit too rushed. The fried rice was better than I expected, and the flavors were solid. I would consider returning but maybe during quieter hours. " (*Curated Review*)
