LEI KITCHEN

Can you please open up a restaurant in the McAllen area. There is a community opening called Los Tres Lagos, which is a great new subdivision. I know that the quality of your food and the area, it would be a great success. How can anyone say anything bad about this place. A definite honey hole in Corpus. Wished we had one in McAllen, TX. We haven't finished our meal, but we are already planning on driving back up, just to eat here. The food came out fast for being packed, the service was awesome, and the atmosphere was nice. If you are looking for a GOOD place to eat, look no further. The price may scare you, but the authentic and big portions make it worth every penny. You know the place is good if it's packed, and from reading the reviews, it seems to always be bumping.

A little hole in the wall restaurant. The best food and service. Our server was so nice and helpful. Extremely large portions. Every dish we tried was delicious!

What a GREAT find! My wife suggested it due the expansive menu. We started with the Bulgogi Lettuce Wraps. OMG, so delish! Honestly, the serving was so generous it could have been its own meal. Or entrees were Drunken Noodles with Beef and Yellow Curry Udon with grilled chicken. I can’t overstate the fact that the flavors were rich and complex. Reilly was our server and we could not have asked for better service, attention to detail, and a caring attitude. She visited our table several times to ensure all was well. What a GREAT overall experience. Oh, I forgot to mention that our portions allowed us to take home dinner and lunch for Monday We will be returning, ordering something different, and requesting Reilly! Thank you, Lei Kitchen!

I'm from Houston, we have an INSANE amount of Asian food. That being said, Lei Kitchen is hands down the best I've had EVER. If you come, I recommend you order something authentic. They do it VERY well. Also, the Japanese loaded chicken fries were unironically the best fries I've ever had. (I've had a lot of fries.)

I cannot highly recommend Lei Kitchen enough. We came here for the first dinner on our summer vacation and it is taking so much restraint not to come back every day. The interior is small and cozy, but the food is anything but that. Everything we tried was bursting with flavor and very generously portioned for the low price. In terms of food, everything was great. The Peach Iced Tea was sweet and rich, while perfectly complimented by the lime it was served with. 6.50 was a steep price, but I would happily pay it any time to have another glass of this tea. The Garlic Bok Choy was tender and well seasoned, a great vegetable side to contrast any heavy noodles and meats you’ll be having. The Honey Chili Chicken was the surprise hit of the night for us. We had ordered it for our picky eaters, but everyone was amazed with how crispy the outside of the chicken was while still staying juicy on the inside. The sauce was sticky and addictive when eaten with the steamed rice. The Drunken Noodles (Pad Kee Mao) was my only mild disappointment of the night. While it was good, it was very one note and lacked uniqueness while eating. I highly recommend asking for extra limes- the lime made the meal much more exciting. The Vegetable Tofu was a vegetarians saving grace. My mom was anxious that she wouldn’t have anything to eat, but this meal was SO good she couldn’t believe they had put such attention and care into the vegetarian dishes as well. The Udon Kimchi Stew was amazing. The texture of the udon was chewy and perfectly cooked, while the soft tofu melted in your mouth and perfectly absorbed the spicy broth. The noodle to soup ratio was on point and incredibly generous. The Fried Banana Rolls were the perfect way to end the night, they were crunchy, warm, and delectably sweet. I can’t overstate how good the price was. We had all these meals for 97 and have enough leftovers to last us a long, long time. The staff was wonderful and brought all our food out very quickly, even though we came near closing. Specifically, our server Yvonne was incredible. She had fantastic communication skills and made sure we had everything we needed throughout the meal without overcrowding us. Yvonne was so helpful and I hope to see her again soon. Overall, great food, great atmosphere, and great people make this a can’t skip spot for south east asian cuisine.

Overall, amazing every time I have been. In terms of service, it's relatively quick, depending on the amount of ppl, of course. Servers are always so nice and helpful, I love their sesame chicken and pho. It's pretty cute inside as well, and they have the vibes set nicely with the music not too loud but not creepily quiet either. 10/10 p.s. portion sizes are nothing to laugh at

Great place to sit down and have a family meal. The food was great. The service was great, and the decor is so cute

I have tried a new dish every time. (4 times, so far.) Always good and authentic. Spring rolls with shrimp are excellent. Service is super friendly and gives great recommendations. Atmosphere can be busy but it's nice.
