Sunday visit with our son and our KU/Lawrence go-to for “Chinese/Oriental” food was CLOSED. Looking at all the available options, this place had about as many reviews as the others. It’s usually a roll of the dice when trying to make an informed decision based on reviews. To be clear, we never review POSH dining spots - not our lane. So when it’s asking for atmosphere, this place looks as any other restaurant you are expecting serving this type of food - traditionally a take-out/delivery cuisine. But now what we all want to know - what about the food?? Good portions for the $ spent. Freshly cooked made it across from West Lawrence to son’s school apartment and it was as awesome as it looked, HOT & FRESH. Looking back, almost all the NEGATIVE reviews for this spot were 5 years old or older so don’t let them deter you from giving this place a visit. And your to go order comes inside a nicely designed marketing carry sack!! Happy eating!

I've ordered from here before and it's always been great but my delivery order tonight was definitely off. Sesame chicken was a weird color and tasted more like honey mustard. Crab rangoons were just plain cream cheese. This is very odd from my normal experience from this place. Not sure if they are having a supply issue or changed recipes. It was edible just not exactly normal. Staff is always nice though.

This place lacks traditional Chinese food flavor the most in the area. It taste too Hispanic oriented. I would call this a Hispanic fusion Chinese food restaurant because it it lacks traditional Chinese food flavor. The general Gao chicken taste way too sweet and taste like apple pie and turns me off it's like a dessert. Feels like a place taking a crack at making American Chinese food and lacks the flavor , perhaps don't know the secret either.

Over $30 food was horrible, low mien wasn’t even cooked through & chicken teriyaki was burnt pieces put on to a stick with only giving 2 also egg rolls was dark inside like the egg rolls have been recooked few times Don’t waste your time ordering here then when I call they don’t pick up.

On a business trip to Andover and was craving some Chinese, so I gave Lee Chen's a try bybmy hotel and was not disappointed! It's got less oil and MSG than some of my favorite Chinese, so the flavors don't punch as hard, but it definitely doesn't sit as heavy in your gut. Overall, very good Chinese, that doesn't leave you feeling guilty.

I must say that the quality of food is excellent. I was pleasantly surprised. My waiter was exceptional and he was kind enough to make something off menu for me (kung pao chicken). This place is an absolute gem in Andover.

The food has a general taste of over used oil in the rice and anything fried. The rice is very bland in flavor and that oily flavor taste is subtle but there where it's over powering from a lack of flavor. The general Gao chicken on one end taste good but there is sometimes a gamy flavor or a chicken going bad flavor, the chicken seems a bit undercooked, should definitely frie longer and work on that chicken going bad flavor.The combination plates are very plain and it's overall pricey for something not so fantastic.

This place is really unprofessional from workers to the owner. I placed an order on Christmas at 430pm. I waited an hour before I called them to see where my order was. I was then told that they were busy and only had one driver. I asked them how longer the girl said she couldn’t tell me that. I waited another hour and called again to speak to the owner this is now 2 hours later. I can hear him telling her to tell me if I don’t like it to go pick it up. He gets on the phone to tell me that he doesn’t know where his driver is at and he dont know what to tell me. Never again if I can give them a 0 a 0 is what the rating would be. Not a people person at all. Don’t know how he is even a owner.

FAST service. When she says “ten minutes” she means it!! They got the best lo mein and softest rice! NEW ice tea is the best ive tried anywhere and its only $2.50 for a huge cup! ( they gave it to us for free to try)

Another Chinese food restaurant that lack traditional American Chinese food flavor. Over all their flavors taste good but lack that traditional flavor of American Chinese food with unique soy sauce except their lomein which I find is the only piece of that traditional flavor is in along with the ideal texture, perhaps they reserve those flavors to that but is subtle. The rice has a subtle traditional Chinese food flavor despite being yellow and has a dry ish texture and is not oily don't know if it's just dryish from the boiling or all the oil seeped in and became dry while cooking in the wok but the flavor saves it. The general Gao chicken taste unique, a bit airy and lack chunks but the unique flavor keep it going a bit over done in sauce. Their egg foo young is great and isn't an oily thing in a tray looks like they drain it well. By far their best item are the chicken fingers which is the most flavorful I've ever had giving a intensfied kfc flavor and its meaty despite thick breading and tender. They definitely have a unique flavor and a unique soy sauce recipe going that is savory.

They are good but it lacks a traditional Chinese food flavor. Maybe they don't know the secret to those flavors, some places around lack those flavors I've noticed and some have it more intensified. The rice is the only thing that has that traditional flavor but is subtle. Overall the food has a fresh element to it, something about it, probably because they're light on sauces and soy sauce. The general Gao chicken seems airy and lack chunky meat and the flavor isn't exciting but you can eat it. The rice isn't oily which is great. The best thing they have in my opinion is their chicken teriyaki which is very juicy and chunky and melts in your mouth, very unique to other places. Overall if I want Chinese food I'd prefer a place that has more soy unique soy sauce based dishes with the rice and a traditional Chinese food flavor with the right texture control for different items.

The tofu with white sauce and the veggie fried rice were amazing! Fresh veggies Great portion size

best authentic chinese food in town. flavors are great especially the spicy dishes. the menu is also inclusive with lots of options. the twice cooked pork, bok choi and mushroom, and spicy fish filet were great.

It was okay and I have honestly been to a few places in town but they need to work on their noodles. Wonton cream cheese was good but the sampler not so much. The sesame chicken was a bit soggy after we got home.

Great food at a good price and large portions! We got gyoza, sweet and sour chicken, and pork and vegetable fried buns. It was all delicious. I was able to save half of my sweet and sour chicken for leftovers.

Very bland. Took over an hour after the given ETA time for food. Very generic, nothing special. For the price, I was expecting a LOT better. I won't be going back here.

decent chinese buffet. the fried squid, mayonnaise shrimp, green beans, and fried rice were great. some of the other dishes are hit or miss depending on your taste. the seafood cheesy dish is pretty good. they have the standard desserts too. i came for dinner but lunch may be more worth it if you dont really eat sea food.

First visit, we were happy and we'll come back. The outside doesn't look like much but the food was very good and the service great. Constant checks on the food and super quick bussing service. Smaller buffet but there really wasn't anything we tried that we didn't like. My favorites - egg drop soup as nice broth without being oily. Egg rolls - not overly cooked and good flavor. Dumplings- so good I didn't even use the sauce. Mongolian Beef - nice slices of tender beef with great flavor and correct onions. Fruit looked good and had juicy flavor. Pudding is might be from a can but it has a dark, rich flavor. The puff filling had a surprising citrus flavor. The "spicy" dishes had a little kick to them but not overly spicy at all.

The food was good and tasted fresh. The food portion definitely was good value for money. It has become my new favorite go to. A good budget meal.

New restaurant! Definitely 5 stars even though my bag was missing a salad (not a big deal). The soup is really good! I'll be here everyday just for the soup 🍲 🙂 We tried a teriyaki bowl as well as beef and broccoli and crab Rangoons. Everything was great!

So this was my first time here today, why I gave it the three star. I tried the general tso and a beef and broccoli also looking at the previous reviews I also order the beef and garlic sauce just to taste the variety. It was ok, the vegetables were sliced not cut, kinda hard to put inch and a half sliced bell pepper and carrot in your mouth. The beef and broccoli and beef w/garlic sauce was cooked perfect not chewy,the general tso was average the batter around the chicken was hard but after a couple of jaw breaking chews I got to the chicken. The area was very clean and up kept very surprised being located in a college town, but the soda machine broke so was made with the choice of $2 soda or water I chose the water from the machine assumed it was cold, Not... warm no ice. All- n all it was average.

Forgot my egg roll :( Got general tso chicken, and it was alright but not that flavorful. But the food was ready on time and nothing wrong with the service

Worst Panda Location- TINY Portions and Terrible Service The portions here are not what they are at other Panda locations. Most locations are generous or at least fill up the portions in the container. The girl getting my food was rude to start with but okay. When she was scooping my food her friend came in to pick up a DoorDash so she just plopped down my food with the scoop in it and said 'oh hey girl you have a DoorDash blah blah' and goes and gets it. Comes back and takes out the scoop to put it back. I asked her, "that's two portions?" She said "ya" and looked all rude and shut it and then yelled at somebody in the back to come check me out. There's a pic on this of my portions they are tiny af for Panda or anybody really. That topped with her undelightful disgusting attitude would have me rate this as the worst Panda location I have ever been to. I'd have gotten more to eat if I had just wadded up my money and ate it a bill at a time.

This gentleman made our dining experience wonderful. The food was fresh and the customer service was excellent. Give this guy a raise.
