YUET LEE still great even after the 2020 ‘changing of the guard at the helm of the wok’ after 43 years under the same family since 1977. A SF Legacy Business since 2019.

Signature SALT & PEPPER SQUID - very crispy light greaseless batter, perfectly fried in fresh oil, tasty & addicting.

My ‘small’ Chef’s Special Wor Won Ton soup is a meal in itself .. fully loaded with chicken & bbq slices, squid as well as bok choy & more ..

Garlic stir fry veggies .. I think it’s ONG Choy .. perfectly cooked .. slight crunch & no mushiness ..

Definitely an old standby. They're open later than most. I come for the Salt and Pepper Porkchop served with soy and chilis. However, their menu is extensive. I've been coming here 20 years.

My hotel told me to go to this restaurant. I am so glad they did! I had the best shrimp dish with bok choi, sauteed in garlic and ginger. Just perfect. I also got a mug of tea, which was refilled whenever the level got low.

Pork Liver rice soup, Mongolian Beef, Pork ribs, Orange Chicken.. all dishes were so good. My family members were all satisfied with this restaurent. The owner was so sweet.???? Thank you. 미국에서 먹었던 Eastern Food 중에 가장 좋았습니다. 성룡도 방문한 찐 맛집^_^. 한국사람들.. 여기 방문하세요. 오렌지치킨은 판다익스프레스의 것보다 좀 더 달고 더 부들부들하고 덜짜요.

On the corner of Broadway and Stockton. We were lucky to find this Restaurant without waiting, it was Chinese Parade and the area was packed with people lining up to get Into the eating places. We ordered the Won Ton soup, the soup had plenty of Won Tons with a flavorful broth and Bok Choi. The stir fry vegetables order was really hot and included bamboo shoots, mushrooms, tofu. We treated ourselves to the salt and paper pork, delightful player with crispy, juicy strips of thin pork with diced fried peppers. We also order a rice plate that came with sweet and juicy prawns with a mixture of silky scrambled eggs. The thin noodles on our prawn chow mein needed to be more savory without sticking together.

A hole in the wall establishment, it's cheap, quick, and easy. Food is okay. It is more on the American Chinese flavor than proper Cantonese style.

Not a bad place to grab a quick bite.

I tried their sweet and sour pork rib. Oh my Buddha, it is the best! Even better than you can find in HK!
Their famous salt and pepper squid is fantastic. Will definitely coming back. The lady waitress was super friendly. Make you feel home especially it was on a heavy rain day.
Wish I can go there weekly.

Ok I rated it as a 3 for atmosphere but honestly this is the exact atmosphere I expect for an open late Chinese food place. Ever since New Sun Hong Kong closed I have been bereft of my late night place where I can get a bowl of soup late at night. I finally made it to Yuet Lee and it did not disappoint. Gigantic portions of steaming hot bowls if won ton noodle soup, fried rice, fried noodles all streaming out of the kitchen with a frenetic pace. Will def go back.

超级差评，如果可以，我会给0星或负数星，曾经在他们店里面吃过饭，感觉服务不错，但是，但是，前几天，想买个粥，打电话，顺便问有没有油条，不足3句话，就急着挂，我连下单的机会也没有…竟然有这样的服务员，我也是第一次电话订餐遇到这样的垃圾人，真不知道他老板知不知道他店有这样为他赶客的服务员，超级衰格…就这样，我暗暗发誓，永远，对，是永远不会光顾这间餐馆。

They didn't have their green beans this time! So sad. But the Chinese broccoli was decent. We have to remember to ask for extra sauce on the ginger noodles. So good but always a little too dry. The service is very attentive at first and then they just leave you alone until all the food is gone. If want something packed up you have to ask. The Duck is tasty. But fatty. You have to be able to deal with that. That's what makes it so good. I'm pretty sure someone smokes in the kitchen while they cook. You can smell cigarettes. You have to be able to deal with that too. It's part of the experience.

Delicious! Best calamari I've ever had (salt and pepper squid)! I'll be coming back for more beef chow fun too.

Un vieux restaurant qui a accueilli des anciennes stars du cinéma et des séries tv de Hong Kong.
Les plats sont bons et en quantités, le service est attentionné et le chef cuisto se démène pour sortir le maximun de plats dans un délai serré. Nous avons tous apprécié notre expérience culinaire ici même si le restaurant en soit est un peu vieillot, mais justement n'hésitez pas à y manger comme on dit "c'est dans les vieilles casseroles que l'ont fait la meilleure cuisine".

Loved it here. The staff were so kind, made my son some makeshift learner chopsticks and served delicious food. Particularly the dumplings ????

Would not recommend this restaurant. We asked for suggestions off the menu from our server and were guided to the "famous dishes" on the first page. All three (highlighted options) we chose were really disappointing. $85 later we felt like we made a very bad choice (3 dishes and 2 beers.) Suggestion for the restaurant: offer few "set menu" options you know will impress new customers, so they won't be disappointed. I'm sure there is tasty food on the menu - we just couldn't find it.

服务很热情，菜品中规中矩，只能说一般吧，看上去是老店，也有一些老食客，点了半只烧鸭，坦率说，太过一般，骨头特别多，估计这只鸭子营养不良。炒牛河、滑蛋牛肉的确很一般，不过咸淡适中，姜葱腰肝炒的非常好，很嫩，断生的恰到好处，很下饭。另外地理位置很好。

This is the real deal you've been looking for. Authentic Chinese food with a very friendly staff who were terrific! The food was plentiful, fresh, tasty, delicious, and flavorful. The staff spoke very little English, but we communicated well, and I felt so happy we found our Sanfrancisco hang. We were thrilled! Try everything!

Good authentic Chinese food in Downtown San Francisco. The combination chow mein and dumplings were superb.

This place deserves a better rating. Service is friendly and efficient, and the food is really delicious. One of the characteristics of Chinese food premises around “wok hey”, or what’s actually described as a particular essence and aroma that is created in a dish when there’s authentic stir-frying, Yuet Lee ticks this box with a big ✅. Our favourite is the Peking Spareribs, really authentic with a generous serving of sauce!
