“ A local take out fast food Chinese restaurant. This Reagan’s has been serving Santa Clara area for over 30 years During Covid-19, no dine in, take out only. Food is delicious! No complaints! ”
“ Fresh vegetables, real chicken! My lunch was wonderful. I’m very surprised with the actual real chucks of chicken. Wonderful flavor, walked in ordered, 10 minutes fresh plate delivered to my table. Rare find ! ”
“ I stumbled upon this tiny Chinese takeout place and I'm so glad I did! The food is incredible. This spot is also vegetarian-friendly, with plenty of options to choose from. I'll definitely be back to this hidden gem for take out !! ”
“ I stopped at Petco and on the way out of the parking lot, this store caught my attention. I decided to stop and grab take out. The man at the front was very nice and helpful, and my food was ready within 15 minutes, piping hot! I ordered the egg rolls (3), wonton soup, and the curry chicken. I spent about 31 including my tip. I felt bad as it was extremely hot out and the kitchen only has fans running. The front is cooler, but it must be so hot for them in the back. I was pleasantly surprised how big the portion of wonton soup was! The curry chicken was also a very large portion, too. The egg rolls had some brown spice inside I’ve never noticed before with other store’s egg rolls, but they were delicious with the given sauce. My only complaint about the curry chicken is there is a lot of celery in that dish, which I don’t love, however that’s just personal taste/preference. Do recommend Lee’s Kitchen! ”
“ PSA!!!! This place is delicious, professional and courteous. Placed an order for Orange Chicken and vegetable rice!!!! So fresh, made to order and satisfying. I wish the orange chicken was spicier. I was greeted and treated well when I walked in the door. ”
“ Gear food, cheap prices Excellent service. We came here looking for a quick,nice, no-frills local Chinese dish and we found it. We ordered the orange chicken, walnut prawns and house chow menu. All great flavorful dishes. The orange chicken flavor was very fresh and you can taste the Orange zest. The prawns were lightly fried and the sauce was sweet ant tangy. The chow menu had all the right flavors and amounts of meat one would expect. Our server, most likely the owner es very friendly and made sure the food was to our liking at least three times during our visit. Will return for sure, very soon and try more dishes. May be my new favorite Chinese spot. ”
