Solid carry out and reasonable prices. The food was ready in 15 minutes from when we ordered. We ordered sesame chicken, hot and sour soup, and fried rice. The rice was average, but nothing special. The sesame chicken had a delicious glaze and was all white meat. It was slightly crispy, but the tempura was too thick. I loved the hot and sour soup. I agree with Jon C. that it’s a sneaky heat. It was the best thing I had. My daughter loves to eat the chunky parts of soup and there were TONS of veggies and tofu chunks for her. I can’t wait to dine in.

Tiger Lilly is one of our go to lunch options at my office. Solid Chinese food with a lot of food for the money. At lunch you get a small egg roll, crab rangoon, and your main dish. They are usually pretty quick as well if you are on a time crunch.

A friend asked me to grab dinner the other day at Tiger Lily, and I was a little apprehensive. i had heard the place had gone downhill, but he assured me that the owners were back in town and took the place back over, and that it had been returned to it’s original glory. He was right. it was delicious! We arrived on a Saturday evening when most places would be packed. Not here. there were a few other tables of people, but we got right in without any waiting. I ordered the Hot and Sour soup as a starter and the Almond Chicken for my entrée. The soup came out right away, and I commented that it didn’t taste all that hot. or sour. As I was finishing up the bowl, I realized I was sweating. so it’s one of those that sneaks up on you. My entrée was all white meat chicken in a delicate sauce with generous amounts of almonds scattered throughout. There was a nice crunch to the almonds that went great with the rest of the ingredients in the dish. A must have for chicken and almond lovers. I left feeling full but not stuffed. which is always a good feeling! Give this place a try and you won’t be unhappy.

This was my first time eating here and I have to say I was disappointed. For a restaurant that is labeled as Korean and Asian Fusion I guess maybe I had my expectations set too high. I ordered the Calamari as an appetizer. I honestly love calamari and will order it whenever I can. This calamari was the worst I’ve ever had. It was very crispy, but completely lacked any flavor at all. Not even that good deep-fried taste that some foods get when you deep fry them. Very little pieces of calamari too. The sauce that was served with it was good, but didn’t really help the overall flavor since the calamari itself was tasteless. For an entrée, I ordered Stir-fried pork with Kimchi. Kimchi is another food that I absolutely love and I always joke with friends saying that you can tell a good Korean restaurant from a bad one by their kimchi. Well this dish was less-than impressive. The kimchi was too sour and didn’t have much flavor. Now I know kimchi is fermented cabbage, so it usually does taste a bit sour, but sour was the only thing that I could taste. It didn’t seem like there was enough spices fermented with it or something. The pork that was stir-fried with it was okay, but the sourness from the kimchi kind of ruined it. This dish is also labeled as «spicy» but wasn’t spicy at all. I also tried the pork bulgogi that my friend ordered. Now usually bulgogi(in my experience) is served with lettuce wraps that you wrap the meat in, but since this place was not completely Korean I ignored that difference. The pork bulgogi was pretty good, not a whole lot of flavor which I was expecting, but it was really just okay. Not something I would come back for. I also tried their sweet and sour soup, which wasn’t good at all. It just tasted like a thick chicken broth with way too much pepper. Overall, I was very disappointed with my experience here. Service was pretty good, but I doubt that I will ever come here again.

As of February 2014, the original owners, Francis and Lori Wong were no longer in control of Tiger Lily Restaurant. I, Corey Wong, their son want to take the time to apologize for their absence and lack of announcement of their departure. This may be the reason why you have noticed the difference of quality, or the inconsistency of taste/flavors you have experienced during your visits to this family run venue. Once again, I’d like to take the time to apologize for these incidents. However, as of June 1st, 2015, my parents have come back from their journey only to discover that their true passion is sharing the delicacies of traditional Asian culture and cuisine with those in this companionable community. Thus, Tiger Lily Restaurant will be undergoing some renovations during the month of June to better revamp the once beloved atmosphere, and ultimately improve the menu. Starting as of JULY1st, Tiger Lily Restaurant will be open for regular business and looking forward to seeing new and old families/friends. Hours will be as followed: Monday-Thursday: 11:00AM– 9:00PM Friday: 11:00AM– 9:30PM Saturday: 4:30PM– 9:30PM Sunday: 4:30PM-9:00 Once again, my family and I apologize for the inconvenience and hope to see you soon. Thank you for supporting us!
