I have been going there for 60 plus years and they use to be the best Chinese restaurants in this town,but now they are crap. Went there the other night and there was no flavor, much less taste. Sorry to say I have given them 3 tries to improve and that's the last time.bye bye

Great value and great food... definitely one of the family's favorites. Usually get the "family style" dinnners... they are served all together for everybody and usually have five items so you can try a bit of everything. Two extra side dishes I can recommend are the kung pao chicken and the broccoli beef!!! When we have family from out of town, we always manage to visit at least once. Our kids like it and it doesn't end up costing a fortune and a good sized portion of food.

all down hill once they dont do service

we have been here a few times. it has always been just ok. never anything memorable until tonight. they couldnt seem to get anything right. I sat for so long needing a water refill that I called them on my phone. I was being serious, asked for a manager. girl put me on forever-hold. its hard to get me to ZERO-tip but their indifference made me do it tonight.

Disappointment

All of the food was bland and cold. No difference in spices from the chow mein to the pork. I think the tea was the only decent thing.

Pretty good

I've been going to this place for over 20 years and never had a complaint, but after my last visit something seemed different, the noodles were alittle dry. I really hope they didn't change the recipe. Bill Lees has a great atmosphere and great service I tell all my co workers who come from out of state to try this place while there in town!

Fantastic Food and service, but delivery scope is a disappointment

I ordered a dinner for 4 delivered, over $50, to a family member's home located near Pacheco and South Union Ave. The service, delivery time and food were all top notch.

I tried to order delivery at home a few minutes ago, and was told they would not deliver here. Now, "here" is just off the 99 hwy, near Ming Ave., it would seem to be a faster and easier trip to deliver here, the neighborhood is definately better...wehat's up with the delivery restrictions? Would a little extra cash for gas seal the deal or what?

Bill Lee, start delivery here, I'll give you another star and a fantastic review.

Great atmosphere

Pretty dim inside but good food and can accomodate big parties. I prefer ordering ala cart, food is great and tasty that way. I don't recommend lunch specials. Always seems to be greasy and more onions than anything else. Service is great.
