AI-generated summary
Old school Cantonese on Mott Street, usually named in the same breath as Wo Hop. The common advice is to come on a weekday for the lunch specials, rice plates from $8 to $12 that come with soup. Regulars order the clam in black bean sauce, , and fried fillet with Chinese veggies. A few say it can be inconsistent.

“My childhood spot is Hop Lee which is across the street from Wo Hop. They have a small flight of stairs down but it’s not as narrow as Wo Hop’s. I really only order a few things from there though: fried flounder/fish filet with veggies, clams in black bean sauce (if in season), peking style pork chops, ginger scallion lobster or crab, and snow pea shoots.”
