    We are usuals at this location but went to visit her Williamsburg location because it's been too long and we needed a dose of Mama Lee's love and heartwarming food. She informed us that she's trying to get the staff settled there before returning to Bayside, hopefully sometime 2024. Williamsburg is doing very well at it's much larger and trendy location with more staff but she expressed how much she missed being at the Bayside location. If any of you regulars have time, drop on by the new place to show her some love. Plenty of street parking nearby.

    Came here for a casual weekend lunch. Did not need to make a reservation and waited maybe 10 mins. The restaurant is pretty small but people eat fairly quickly given the casual nature. It's mostly self-serve as well; you order at the counter and pay at the counter when you are done. There is water by the cashier that you can get yourself. Personally, I preferred this so we are not waiting to order and such. The food was very authentic Taiwanese, you get your traditional popcorn chicken and ground meat rice, loved the flavors! If you are looking for the more traditional traditional Taiwanese taste you would love it here! The price is super good, our whole meal was like $30, which is hard to find anywhere nowadays. Would definitely recommend!

    I love Mama Lee because it's the most home-y environment that reminds me of the local Taiwanese shops I used to go to. The owner (Mama Lee) is so caring and treats her customers like she is inviting us into her home. Aside from that, the food is very authentic. I've tried many dishes and I recommend ordering more of the Chinese dishes that have a pleasant spice kick to it.

    Okay this is a very belated review. I ordered pickup on a Sunday... maybe a month or two ago? It was a rainy Sunday evening that I ordered 1 pork chop over rice and 2 lu ruo fan for my family. Apparently I was the last customer of the night and they took my order even though they were closing soon. Mama Lee gave us some extra pork chops for my family to share. It was a very kind warming gesture and I greatly appreciated it! For those who don't know, Mama Lee is primarily a "mom and pop" shop where she does majority of the cooking and sometimes manages the front. It is a small family owned business. I highly recommend good quality Taiwanese food not to mention that Asian Mom hospitality of making sure everyone is well fed! Oh, and also the food is great and the portions are generous! This is my second time visiting (first time being a few years ago). Support locally owned businesses!
