Review Summary

Oncle Lee Kao provides a vibrant dining experience that frequently earns praise for its creative, modern take on Chinese cuisine, with the signature spice duck platter and tapioca dessert being standout recommendations among patrons. Many diners highlight the excellent, attentive service and the elegant, atmospheric decor as major contributors to a memorable visit, while the restaurant is also noted for its accommodating approach to dietary restrictions and group events. While the majority of feedback is highly positive, some guests have offered mixed reviews regarding seasoning balance, sauce portions, and occasional noise levels, yet the consensus remains that it is a stylish and flavorful destination worth visiting for both special occasions and casual nights out.

We went for a dinner with 10 friends. Service was amazing, food was really good. Loved the experience ! We ordered the garlic fried rice, lamb skew, duck platters, & seafood plates. Thank you again for hosting us.

Restaurant découvert au hasard d'une promenade, c'etait vraiment bon. Laissez-vous tenter par un cocktail, partagez les plats copieux. Le riz à l'ail était incroyable 😊

We've been to many of the restaurants under this same ownership & have had great experiences thus we were pleased when we found out that this was another under the same excellent management. The place is really nice although I do prefer better lighting as the menu is sometimes hard to read due to the dim lights. We also found that the music got too loud too early so we had trouble hearing each other.
The entree started very well as the shrimp toast was excellent. But the main dishes were less good, notably the garlic vegetables were just one vegetable & not really tasty. The beef tataki was pretty good & the garlic rice was very good. Overall a nice place but not as good as other options.

Nous avons été très déçus de notre expérience. L'entrée de crevettes était sèche. On nous a servi la dorade sans aucun service, débrouillez-vous avec ça! Le riz était pâteux. Le seul point positif, le crudo de poisson.

The food & the service are both top-tier. Great dark-lit ambience as well. I recommend the crudo & fried chow mein.

Excellent food. Great variety of unique Japanese dishes meant to be shared. This was our first visit & we had an early reservation so the vibe was quiet & there was little or no background music but I'm sure it picks ip in the late evening.
Service was excellent - our waitress was extremely helpful with the menu & the wine selection.
Will definitely be back.

Amazing experience. The duck was delicious, perfectly cooked, & came with fantastic sides. The eggplant melts in the mouth. The shrimp toast was great but tiny. Highly recommended, will defined be back.
