    I had General Tso's chicken which was very good and there was plenty of it. The server did a very good job.

    Always good food. Though terribly busy, our server got us what we needed Christmas Eve. Szechuan Chicken is the deal and great egg rolls.

    I am glad Sun Lee is in Lexington. The Portions are on—point, the Food delicious, and the Service is excellent. Because this is in the Woodlands, I know there is the same emphatisch on quality as at Frankie and Dinos. The Noise Level is wonderful. One can actually have a conversation here. Thanks, Shun Lee. See you again tonight on Christmas Eve.

    We were graciously welcomed, and the food was tasty with large portion sizes! We shared crab Rangoon, Seared pork dumplings and wonton soup to start. The orange chicken was crispy and flavorful. The menu had a spicy symbol next to it, but it wasn't too spicy. General Tso's chicken had great flavor, and the shrimp with broccoli was very fresh! We took home enough leftovers for a second meal with fried rice for everyone! Great service and amazing food!
