This is the best Chinese food I have ever eaten – and I LOVE Chinese food. We are visiting from Iowa and were thrilled to find this gem. We ate the crab Rangoons, sesame chicken, potstickers, kung pao shrimp, and basil beef dish. We will 100% be back the next time we visit Chicago. We ate it so fast we don’t even have photos!

Dees is a Lincoln Park classic. Absolutely delicious menu top to bottom. Big shout outs for the crab rangoons, wasabi dumpling, potstickers, and basil sauce entree with mixed veggies. Dee is a sweetheart and we love supporting her and this fantastic restaurant!

I have never had food at this restaurant but I have picked up from here a few times before today at 6:29pm 1/22/23. I went in to pick up an order and I didn’t get any help at all someone that came in after me got help before me. I give her a few more minutes because I thought maybe he came earlier. No that was not the case she just don’t ask me anything and I had to ask her about the order. I waited a few minutes to find out that order was not paid for on her end which would have been good to know if she would have acknowledged that I was in the store in the first place.I had to call the delivery company to get help canceling the order and had to go back to talk to the lady working in the front. For her to tell me that the order was not paid for again and to call the delivery company and I told her I’m on the phone with them now they just want know will you guys be making the order. It seem like she didn’t understand me at all so I just told them when she told me they was not making the order and to cancel it. It’s very sad that other women can’t give woman the same respect as a man. If I was the other color of them woman she was helping I would have had a better experience getting an order situated. I definitely will not pick up from here again she was very unprofessional and unpleasant.

I was a huge fan of the chicken fried rice. Unfortunately a family member had ordered the cucumber salad and asked the ingredients as she has a specific allergy. When we sat down to eat she immediately froze and had an allergic reaction. She has eaten many cucumber salads and not once have they had ginger. The menu does not state ginger in it, nor did the person who took her order and reviewed the ingredients. She was luckily able to get a refund but it was just for the salad. When she spoke to the manager they assured her that all cucumber salads have ginger (they don’t) and were defensive instead of being accommodating. They did not call her back when prompted. Otherwise, no other accommodations were made as she was a first time customer. If you have specific allergies be sure to ask the owner! I believe they told my sister they would adjust the menu to show ingredient list. The owner took care of it otherwise I was worried about her aspiring food reaction.

I’ve been eating at and ordering from Dee’s longer than I can remember. The restaurant is closed now, but fortunately we can still order takeout. Consistently delicious! If I had to pick one single item on the menu to recommend, it is definitely the eggs rolls. Crispy on the outside, robustly filled, amazing flavor.

Love Dee’s scallion pancakes and the mu shu with beef. The sesame noodles were less peanutty than I had hoped for, but were still good. Ordered for delivery and was pleased that the food arrived 25 minutes before quoted time. Next time I’ll try the poke appetizer and some Sushi, both of which sounded delicious.

If you wanted msg go elsewhere. This is the epitome of fresh Mandarin cuisine. Dee always is working and she’s slaying, most Chinese restaurants now charge about the same for salty stale food. Go to Dee’s and you’ll be full of delicious wholesome food

Awesome Chinese food, which you can see by the amount of regulars that come in here. The food was delicious, the service was quick (I think the food was brought to our table in like 15 minutes). The best Mongolian Beef I could find near Lincoln Park.
