3 Stars: What are the hrs of the store! (by Clissy L.)

Clissy L. — Sat, 06 Jun 2009 14:40:00 GMT

I find it so frustrating that you see pics of this particular store inside and out but there are no store hours listed. I once went to another store only to find out they opened at 10:00 and the jewelry area ( which is what I wanted for a jade bracelet) did not open until 12:00! Now they have one in Chandler....and again no hrs listed.

5 Stars: Great for gluten-free families (by Darshani S.)

I first found Lee Lee because I married a man from India, and they have an entire section of Indian food. My sister in law just visited and said they have most of the major brands here that you find in India.Recently my daughter and husband were diagnosed with Celiac Disease. They cannot have any wheat products. Lee Lee has some nice non-wheat products. Also they have some non-wheat flours such as potato, tapioca, and rice. At other stores such as Sprouts and Whole Foods those flours are nearly $4 per package, however at Lee Lee they are under a dollar!! Wow!

1 Stars: DO NOT buy NON food item from Lee Lee (by YH T.)

I have bought a water boiler from them and use it for less than 2 weeks and I am not satiesfy with the product due to some salt stain inside the water boiler. I brought into the market and they promise to send it for repair and will be back for 2 weeks. After 2 weeks, they didn't call and I went to the store and check it out. After search for my item from their store, the boiler has NOT been sent back to the manifacturer. One of the worker took it out and told me that this is due to the salt contain in the water in Arizona state and is not their problem. There is no instruction say that I can't use normal water to boil the water.
First, they never send it back ( without any apology ) and blame it on me for not using it correctly. I demand a refund and they told me any NON food item can ONLY be refunded IF it has NOT been used.
How can you know or satisfy with the product if you don't even use it at the first place?
They have fresh food but DO NOT buy any NON food item from them. They will not allow you to return the item if u have try it!!

5 Stars: Sara d., please learn english! (by Tina S.)

This store if WONDERFUL! The variety is amazing, and the prices are pretty darn good. As for the people who work there and their lack of English skills, I've found that they try and there is at lease one person I've seen make improvements in her English since I've started working there; not something you see often here in AZ.
Sara d., please learn how to use English yourself before you get high and mighty. Punctuation is your friend - learn to use it or you are the pot calling the kettle black!
I will continue to be a customer, and encourage anyone to check out something new.

What a great place it has anything for your Oriental taste,and for the people that made the remarks poor service due to poor English,sounds like you need to find another place to shop.Maybe the reason it is such a great store for Oriental needs is because it is ran by Orientals,what a very sorry excuse for customer service.Please keep the store the same as it is

5 Stars: Excellent Asian market (by Janice W.)

Janice W. — Sat, 26 Apr 2008 15:56:00 GMT

Well, in this desert of a city, it's not like we have a large selection of Asian markets as West- and East Coast cities enjoy. Lee Lee's is as good as they come with all the basics and then some. The Asian vegetables are fresh and stocked regularly. The aisles are bright and clean and the lines at the check-outs are always keep under control by the staff and management. The co-owners take turns being present at the store and are always friendly, courteous and helpful to their customers. Highly recommend for all!

4 Stars: love it hope they make changes for the non asian customers (by sara d.)

sara d. — Mon, 11 Feb 2008 22:26:00 GMT

I really like this market the prices aren't bad and my vegatables are fresh. i wonder if their organic not sure if this is a franchise store. what was difficult for me was im not asian and i couldn't understand the their signs are written in asian language. they should also write in english what the vegetables are. I think they would get more people. and if they expananded on their staff to help you. i couldn't communicate with the cashier she didn't speak english.

4 Stars: Great variety of food. (by CINDY G.)

I usually come to Lee Lee's when I'm in Chandler. They have a great selection of filipino and other oriental foods. Their produce and fruits are wonderful and inexpensive.

PROS Variety
CONS crowded on weekends...go during the week esp. Wed.

5 Stars: Best asian grocery in the area (by Anonymous P.)

Anonymous P. — Sat, 15 Jul 2006 13:38:00 GMT

Massive selection of ingredients for asian cuisine, as well as imported packaged foods and other household items. When we're looking for the obscure, we know to check her first. At times the store has been questionable as far as cleanliness in concerned, but nothing unhygenic. Just not as sparkling clean as your typical grocery store. Cheapest place in town to get your stock-up items like rice and beans.

4 Stars: Quality produce (by Vaibhav J.)

Vaibhav J. — Wed, 30 Nov 2005 10:54:00 GMT

They are the best people to go for fresh chicken, meat, seafood and produce. They have absolutely the largest collection of seafood and produce at very reasonable prices. You can also get a variety of oriental sauces, seasoning and ready to eat food. Prices are very reasonable and the quality high

4 Stars: Absolutely fresh chicken and prawns (by Burad N.)

Burad N. — Mon, 28 Nov 2005 13:12:00 GMT

This supermarket boasts of the most fresh Chicken and prawns in the Phoenix area. They have an amazing array of vegetables and meat that are not found elsewhere at very affordable prices. They are the only place to get your supply of oriental vegetables like mint, lotus roots and all oriental herbs. For 90 dollars they give you $100 worth of coupon to spend at the store which lets you save 10% on already reduced prices.

PROS: Variety, Fresh produce, Affordable
CONS:

3 Stars: Too Bad The Only Nearby Asian MArket (by Ivan Z.)

Ivan Z. — Tue, 18 Oct 2005 03:24:00 GMT

It's bigger than 99 ranch market with comparable variety, but the place is not very organized and sometimes it's hard to find someone to help you out. Line is long and slow that makes me frustrated. But the only nearby place to buy asian food. But there's good quantity of goods.

4 Stars: Excellent Ethnic grocery store (by Rajesh V.)

Rajesh V. — Fri, 29 Jul 2005 15:37:00 GMT

You can find fresh oriental/indian vegetables and grocery here. Prices are probably the best you could find in the Phoenix area. You could also exchange $90 for $100 worth store coupons, and later pay the coupons at the checkout counter. Thus you could save 11% of your purchases...
