This landmark restaurant -- with more than 35 years of experience in classic Chinese cuisine -- satisfies the need for a reputable Chinese restaurant in the North Miami Beach area. A bit on the pricey side, Christine Lee's is a favorite of those seeking above-average Szechuan and Mandarin specialties. But even better than such standards is the sirloin steak, which most diners would never consider ordering outside a traditional chop house. Go against the grain and order it -- it's that good. Shrimp with lobster sauce is another highlight, as is the restaurant's specialty -- a combination of boneless chicken and lobster with shrimp, scallops, pork and vegetables. Popular with families who have been coming here for years, Christine Lee's often features live entertainment, which is an added bonus, since the restaurant is located in an uninspiring strip mall. -- Lesley Abravanel
