About This Awesome Chinese Restaurant

At Lee Cafe (川湘阁), we are more than just a restaurant—we are a celebration of authentic Chinese cuisine and the community we proudly call home. Founded in 2015 with the vision of sharing the flavors of China with families across the Carolinas, Lee Cafe brings together tradition, passion, and authenticity in every dish we serve.

Our chef, with over 25 years of expertise honed in both China and the U.S., masterfully handcrafts each plate with care and precision passed down through generations. From hand-rolled dumplings made fresh daily, to mouthwatering Sichuan Wontons, to sizzling Sichuan stir-fries infused with guoqi—the “breath of the wok”—every creation carries a story of tradition, passion, and authenticity. It is this unwavering dedication to culinary craftsmanship that has made Lee Cafe a cherished community favorite for nearly 11 years.

But our story doesn’t stop in the kitchen. Lee Cafe is built on the belief that food connects people, and we are honored to contribute to the community that has welcomed us so warmly. From supporting local events to giving back to veterans, we see our restaurant as more than a dining space—it is a place of gathering, gratitude, and connection.

Step into Lee Cafe, and immerse yourself in a dining experience where every bite is a celebration of tradition, community, and shared moments. We look forward to welcoming you at our table.
