My first complaint about this restaurant was the way that it was designed. The restaurant itself is surrounded by ground to ceiling glass windows. It doesn't make the dining experience comfortable. Another thing that bothered me was that the waitresses idly stood by the counter and stared at my friends and I the whole time we were there. As my friends and I were deciding what we were getting, three different waitresses went to our table to ask if we were ready to order which didn't make sense since they were standing right in front of us. \n\nThe menu itself is very well organized and offers authentic Chinese food. Since How Lee specializes Sichuan style food, they had a whole separate section for that. The nice thing about the Sichuan section is that you can tell them your preference for spiciness. Since I have no tolerance, I ordered the pork belly and leeks without any spice. The pork belly was cooked perfectly although I was disappointed that it wasn't actually slices of pork belly but pork with fat running through it. The portions are huge so you definitely get your money's worth. I ended dog bagging leftovers equivalent to another meal. \n\nOverall, How Lee serves authentic Chinese food. I might come back to try other dishes but it didn't replace my go-to Chinese places: Rose Tea and Everyday Noodles."^^ . "3"^^ . "2"^^ .
