Lee's Restaurant

Hometown goodness in a place family owned for 85 years. Homemade pies, local seafood, and hot rolls! Who could ask for more?

Been stopping in Lee's over the past 30 years. Food is delicious and consistently so. Today's Chocolate Turtle Pie was Extraordinary! Homemade too! Gotta go... Nap Time...

They were busy and shorthanded but still didn't have to wait very long .. i got a burger which was one of a very few that I've ever had at a restaurant that had good flavor and wasn't overcooked, it was medium as asked. decent sweet tea. decent service even though they were slammed

Best fried chicken! We ended up at Lee’s because it was one of the only restaurants open around 3 in the afternoon and I am so glad we found it. The fried chicken was some of the best I have ever had. Crispy on the outside tender on the inside, and full of flavor. Everything else we ordered was really good too. The service was friendly and relaxed. The whole place just had a welcoming feel. We will definitely be back.

Amazing food, dinner of the best fried chicken I’ve had. The people I was with got appetizers as their meals and said they were great. Service was excellent. Highly recommend!

This is a hometown, locally owned restaurant. It's a diner vibe with friendly staff, fresh made, home-cooked favorites and fast service. Everything we ordered was fresh and tasty from fried Oysters, to turkey dinner, to chicken fried steak, to wings. Kids menu is great with fresh pizza. The dough is homemade. The special appetizer of Philly cheese steak egg rolls with a smoked hot pepper jam was fantastic! Now, let's talk about the pies! They are too much, in a good way! We tried 5 pies: keylime, coconut cream, lemon meringue, chocolate pecan and Reese peanut butter. Wow, wow, wow, they were all perfectly sweetened, beautifully decorated and soooooo fresh. The owner makes them fresh daily. We will be back!!!!!

My husband and I had dinner here today. It was amazing! Our waitress "Athena" was very attentive and friendly, providing excellent service. We both had a pasta dish with a nice sized salad and homemade roll. The French dressing is made in-house and was very good. I had the Chicken Fettucini Alredo. The chicken was perfectly seasoned and grilled. The Alfredo sauce was very flavorful yet light, which was nice-it wasn't overly rich or heavy. My husband had the Veal Parmesan, which comes with a meatsauce. The veal was tender and perfectly breaded and done. The homemade sauce (which we were told is from a 1939 recipe) was very good. It reminded my husband of his step-father's sauce (that he made from tomatoes fresh from his garden and simmered for three days), making the meal an even better experience for my husband. For dessert we had the Blueberry-White Chocolate Cobbler Cheesecake, which had a refreshing hint of Lemon keeping it from being too sweet; and the Carrot Cake, which was dense, moist and a perfectly spiced balance to the cream cheese icing. Both were very good. If we weren't leaving town in a day, we'd go back. If we're ever in Kilmarnock again, we will definitely eat at Lee's. It's well worth the stop!

Lee's is a totally" old school "Village dining, period. Nothing fancy and you arent there for the decor or the social scene, this is just a local place to eat, and one that endured many years. Update. Today I made it my business to hit Lee's. I was itching for a good ole grilled cheese but I switched it up adding bacon n tomato slices. The bacon was seriously good, and I'm a totally fussy tomato guy..but the tomato was perfect too. as if they knew my pickyness! Athena, my waitress, was prompt and got it all right. She checked on me just enough to show she was paying attention. So today a Gold Star for awesome bacon tomato on grilled cheese n Athena.. try the grilled cheese with their good fries too! . I had the crab cake sandwich that comes with coleslaw and fries.. the fries seemed a bit different in a good way and I really enjoyed them.. and I so glad they didnt salt them to death, as other places do nearby. The tartar sauce was fine and I hear many realy like it, the sandwich itself very decent. I had the chicken salad another time which was enjoyable too.. but not overly filled, just enough.. Prices here greatly vary from a simple grilled cheese sandwich to big steak dinners. I hear their pies are great and reasonably priced too, but I was too full to try any this time! Update. Went again and sat outside in the gentle breeze . The streets were filled with shoppers . We waited for a seat outside . My friend enjoyed a fried chicken sandwich and I tried Chicken croquettes (which I haven’t had in ages but these though made differently than in NYC ) they had a crunchy coating and were enjoyable! A popular place with locals that's been around a long time.. if you haven't tried it I think you should ..there's a wide array of offerings to start sampling at reasonable prices!
