After having gone here for years since I lived in the area it's hard to find such a homely restaurant anywhere about. I guess it's true what they say that everyone thinks their local Chinese is the best however this is far from 'local' to me but it is still the best that I'd travel an hour to come here. Can't wait till Covid ends so I can continue eating at my favourite place again

It's good man. Struggle to find a half decent Chinese takeaway in this part of London these days. This was full decent. We will Hap Lee be returning. Cheers.

Food is amazing! Very quiet place but the food is amazing. I’m a Vegetarian so my choices are quite limited.

Our family favourite. Have been getting take away from this place for nearly a decade now. Very reliable and good value for money. The preparation and delivery times are also quite nippy. It's good enough for a celebratory sit down dinner if cash is a bit tight as well. Customer service is also very good.

The food was lovely and piping hot and a very fast service in 10 mins, they take both cash and card. I'd been given this recommendation by a stranger in another streatham favourite Gourmet China takeaway when we were both queuing and waxing lyrical about the forementioned food and what other chinese in the area were quality. It took a few months to figure out which restaurant it was because he gave directions and not the name, and I had to try a couple of other Chinese takeaways, which were subject par, to say the least. I ordered Singapore rice and barbecue ribs and was pleasantly surprised at the double pairing of meaty ribs, my only gripe was the tasty rice was a normal sized portion in the plastic container and not in a large foil one, and they don't serve roast duck and rice or capital or peking ribs, although the barbecue ribs can pass for plum style.

Most delicious Chinese food I've had in a long time. Writing this having just been for a weekday meal for a birthday celebration and felt the need to leave a review because I enjoyed it that much. Spice levels were perfect and service was great!

I have been coming here with my family for over 15 years and it never fails to deliver! I have eaten all over asia and must say this is authentic schezuen cuisine. Not only that but the service is great; super fast and delicious! I would especially recommend it for large groups as the pricing is very reasonable. I have paid upto 10 times more up west for the same dishes with poor results. HapLee always has my recommendation!
