Add these lunch time specials to your rotation! (If you can live without brown rice.) We stopped in for our midday meal, and we were greeted with friendly, attentive service even though they were training a new waitress who couldn't answer all of our questions. However, we ask a lot of goofy questions (can we get this with broccoli only, or that with more garlic, is this a good one, and so on). They were very eager for feedback and special orders did not upset them.
The menu is huge, so it is hard to imagine they can do it all well. We went with some basic stir fry dishes on their lunch specials menu. Fresh, generous and saucy are the three adjectives I would choose. I ordered the garlic chicken with broccoli only, and later in the day, driving down the highway I realized I had an entire chunk of fresh garlic wedged between my back teeth. Not so great for the breath, and perhaps a bit too much information, but a perfect indicator that the chef here is chopping up the cloves by the dozen and cooking them up on the spot in the dishes. The waitress said, "If you like garlic, you will not be disappointed," and she was right! It was very flavorful.
The lunch special comes with a spring roll and is $6.95. A little cup of soup would be a nice addition to the lunch price, but I had enough to eat.
One disappointment was the lack of brown rice. We are avoiding white rice as much as possible these days, so the husband went without rice. I ate about half of the jasmine rice they served, and it was good, just the wrong color. Hopefully, if they get busier, they will add brown rice, and Lilly's will then become a true repeat eat!
