Lily Garden Restaurant 2106 West Algonquin Road, Lake in the Hills, IL 60156

"FOOD IS GOOD! The gravy this time watery! It is usually thick. The front desk needs more computers if it is busy only one order at a time! And a wait!"

"Well I'm from Chicago and I'm out here visiting my girlfriend and when I first started visiting her I said is there any good Chinese places around here? She said well there's this place called Lily's down the street but I heard it was just so so well let me be the first one to walk up and say it's more than just so so it's amazing! The portions are good for the price the food is always fresh and I really love their food here. The people are always friendly and don't forget to try the smoothies"

"Never mind Panda Express, this is the place to get REAL Chinese food. I've been eating here for decades and would highly recommend it to anybody looking for delicious food for a fair price. IMO, the beef chop suey w/ a side of egg rolls is the best, but you really can't go wrong w/ anything on the menu."

"Lovely Chinese-American food. Run by some rad bachan (grandmas). The food was so good. My pepper beef actually tasted like pepper, and the beef was so tender. My wife got the sesame chicken and the flavor was so delicate. They even have a full bar. Absolute classic. Support them today. Do expect some relaxed service and the seats have tape on them. But the place is just old school. It's worth it. When bachan points to a menu item and shouts "yum yum" and gives you a thumbs up. Order that item. You can't go wrong. I'm going to head back sometime and see if I can elbow my way into some secret menu items. I would bet if you ask nicely they'll make you some "real" food. People who know, know."

"Good atmosphere. Nice food as well. We can see the authentic Chinese infrastructure and the food."
