Why Eat

Why Li's Place

Li's Place is a Chinese takeout spot on Freeport's main drag that's built a loyal following over years. They specialize in house noodles, General Tso chicken, and crab rangoons that stay crispy through the drive home. Most regulars order for takeout, though you can eat in. The food arrives fast, usually within ten minutes of calling.

  • House Rice Noodles stay seasoned and generous with protein.
  • General Tso and crab rangoons are consistently crispy.
  • Food arrives in about ten minutes.
  • Regular customers swear by it for five-plus years.

Menu

What to order

Start with the crab rangoons, which hold up through the journey home without turning soggy. The House Rice Noodles at spice level 8 are well-seasoned and loaded with protein. General Tso chicken stays crispy even after takeout. Chicken Lo Mein and chicken fingers round out the favorites. Everything tastes fresher and less greasy than typical takeout spots in the area.

Atmosphere

The room

Basic takeout counter setup. It's in and out, casual. The focus is on the food moving quickly, not on decor.

This is solidly a takeout-first operation. Freeport tourists and locals alike swing by after a day downtown, grab a few containers, and head out. The staff moves efficiently without rushing you. If you're looking for a quick, well-executed Chinese meal, it lands.

Reviews

What guests say
