Lee's Kitchen
Inside Lee's Kitchen
Lee’s Kitchen is a straightforward Chinese restaurant tucked away on SW Nyberg Street in Tualatin, serving up familiar dishes that draw a steady local crowd. The dining room has a no-frills vibe that shows its age—some spots could use a freshening up—but that doesn’t seem to affect the steady flow of regulars who come mainly for the food rather than the décor.
The menu leans heavily into classic Chinese-American favorites like pot stickers with sweet and sour sauce, Mongolian beef, and kung pao chicken. Those looking for comforting bowls of hot and sour or egg flower soup will find solid options here, alongside a variety of wonton soups and fried rice dishes. Portions tend to be generous, which makes Lee’s particularly popular for family dinners or casual group meals where sharing and sampling multiple plates is part of the experience.
Service is noted for being friendly and attentive even during busy times—there’s a personal touch from the staff that locals appreciate, with familiar faces delivering food and checking in throughout the meal. The atmosphere feels more utilitarian than polished, which may appeal to diners who prioritize straightforward, hearty meals over ambiance.
Lee’s Kitchen seems most fitting for those who grew up on this style of Chinese food or anyone seeking a reliable, reasonably priced spot for comforting dishes like sweet and sour shrimp or kung pao chicken without venturing far from home. It’s not a spot for special occasions, but it works well for midweek dinners, casual meet-ups, or grabbing a plate to go.
Despite some dated aspects of the space, the place has built a loyal following, with some customers willing to make trips from nearby towns just to get their fill. If you’re in Tualatin and craving consistent takeout or a family-style sit-down meal in a relaxed setting, Lee’s Kitchen is a familiar option worth knowing about.
