Ordered takeaway and the food was very tasty. This meal isn't in the menu but next time you order spare ribs from here, consider asking for it to be in black bean sauce. Absolutely delicious, amazing stuff.

We've tried various Chinese takeaways over the years with mixed results. Lee's Garden has always been in the better half. Just had a meal for 2 from them and have to give it top marks. Everything tasted fresh and full of flavour and perfectly cooked. It was by far and away the best I've had in years. Let's hope the keep the same cooks and same standards going forward, if they do they will become very well respected.

Genuinely the best Chinese take away in Reading. We have used Lee's Garden for some 25 odd years. All dishes we buy have good depth of flavour and a plethora of ingredients of sound quality. I cannot comment on how many times it has changed hands over the years' - or whether it has changed hands, but quality has been consistent with the occasional glitch as you would expect. Singapore chow mein and Beef with green peppers and black bean with extra chilli are sublime.

Use to be brilliant, but the last two times it's been disappointing. Last night we were told 1.15 mins wait and it took 1.40 mins, could live with this but food was cold and bit bland. I called Lees garden to let them know food was cold and very late, didn't want ask or expect anything other than a apology. Gentleman I spoke to was very rude and said it was my fault for not chasing the order and never apologised till I said I thought it was poor service. He then hung up on me. Lees garden don't deal with customs very professionally. Would NOT recommend

¡No ordene de Lees Garden!En primer lugar, la comida estaba fría ya que tuvimos que esperar más de 3 horas por nuestra comida porque el conductor se fue a otra casa. Cuando llamamos preguntando dónde estaba la comida, la señora fue bastante irrespetuosa y terminó la llamada y puso la línea en ocupado para que no pudiéramos volver con ella. Tan pronto como abrimos la comida vimos que faltaba la mitad y en el satay de pollo había un pelo que nos disgustaba. Cuando abrimos la bola de pollo, 2 de ellos faltaban la mitad, como si se hubieran mordido. El conductor también acababa de tirar la comida al suelo, que derramó la mitad de las patatas fritas.¡NO VAYAS AQUÍ!

¡este establecimiento es terrible! Mi familia y yo pedimos nuestra comida en línea y el sitio web dijo que la comida llegaría en 1 hora. Después de esperar pacientemente durante 2 horas, comenzamos a preguntarnos dónde está la comida, así que llamamos al lugar. Las mujeres fueron extremadamente groseras y dijeron que la comida estaba en camino. Después de esperar otra hora, la comida aún no había llegado, así que volvimos a llamarlos. La señora nos había dicho que el conductor había tenido que hacer otra entrega antes que nosotros y que la comida estaba casi aquí. Luego esperamos otros 45 minutos y todavía no había llegado, así que por tercera vez llamamos al establecimiento. Cuando llamamos y mencionamos quiénes somos, la señora colgó el teléfono y cambió la línea a ocupado. ¡Así que ahora nos vemos obligados a ir allí y recuperar nuestro dinero! ! !

Really good take away. Always have the duck as it's great. I like a quarter as it's less than a half and more than a fifth, so it's just right. Also the soup is good although it is vegetarian but contains prawns. Are prawns a vegetable? Maybe they are. I'll have to look into that and get more info. I hope that I find out the answer soon as my soup is getting cold.
