I visited Oncle Lee with a friend, grabbing a lucky last minute reservation (which are necessary at this PACKED restaurant). Service was quick, attentive but simple. Nothing bad to say about it. The food was very good. I expected much spicier dishes, & was surprised to find most dishes played on savoury/sweet/sour. But, it worked! The eggplant dish was a standout, & so was the yuzu sea bream. But: keep some stomach space for the pain perdu at the end of the meal, that was the standout. The atmosphere is relaxed, but quite noisy with tables close to each other given how busy the restaurant can get. Expect to have to talk louder than usual to hear your mates. Definitely a must eat in the area for a modern canadian twist on chinese fare.View more
Outstanding quality, both in service & food. I was curious to read the reviews after going there. This place deserves more than 4.3 stars & I'm surprised people aren't celebrating Montreal's diversity of food & influences more when reviewing this place. All the bad reviews accuse this place of not being authentic. It's not 100% traditional, but the food is good, & the execution is well done. Why not get over ourselves with the stir frying & just try to enjoy the broccoli.View more
Last minute reservation due to the power failure from the storm & glad that made us try Oncle Lee. Amazing modern take on Asian dishes, great cocktails & chill vibe. Great place to split dishes to try more things. Will definitely be back soon to try the other things on the menu that looked yummy!!View more
The environment is nice, & i enjoyed the comfortable chairs, bar & table size (sturdy & wide). Bone marrow & petoncles were definitely a highlight. However, while the food isnt bad it wasnt anything remarkable in my opinion. i would not particularly recommend.View more
Quelle prétention de s appeler resto chinois vraiment 😟 & comment avoir le droit de ce reconettre comme un des meilleurs resto chinois à mtl ? Vraiment vous n êtes pas à la hauteur! Des sauter ca se fait avec un Wok & le prix ridicule que vous exigé depuis votre envoie sur les réseaux sociaux! Désoler je vais être franc avec vous c est vraiment pas bon & ça dans tous vos plats a part les huîtres qui est difficile a rater 🥲🥴🤢View more

Okay folks this is an Asian Inspired restaurant. We appreciate the effort you put in, but this is Not Asian Fusion. Definitely Not Chinese restaurant. We had high expectations coming here, but unfortunately it didn't hit the spot. Friday night crowd was a mix of age groups with more leaning towards older crowd. Service was normal, nothing better than an average restaurant, & food was edible but overpriced for what it is. Here's a run down of what we got & a short blurb. Appetizers: scallop XO sauce & pork ribs. Scallop was decent probably 2 scallops chopped & tossed in a nice dressing. Pork ribs good flavour but barely any meat to enjoy. Main: Duck, spicy noodles, stir fried veggies with garlic. Duck was most likely cooked sous-vide & seared. Server with 6 wrappers, a bunch of sauces & toppings just like a Chinese taco. Duck was well cooked but all the remaining condiments were mediocre & not complementary to the dish. Wrappers are broken so they leak on your hand when you try to make a bite, the spicy sauce is sweet & not spicy, patte de volaille is so random. Noodles were very oily, tiny portion, below average flavour. Veggies with garlic was absolute disaster, overcooked 3 stems of Chinese broccoli soaked in butter. Yes butter & most likely heavy cream. This was the moment I knew the kitchen is in deep trouble & needs new leadership. No chef would approve for vegetables to be cooked this way. Legend says to use a wok for stir-fry.View more
It's a Chinese fusion cuisine merging recipes with Canadian culture, joining culinary forces offers truly novel flavor combinations & unique menu offerings that customers can't find elsewhere. 📌Plateau de canard aux 5 épices/5 Spice duck platter The moist, tender duck meat, added with sesame sauce & hoisin sauce, roll-it-yourself into a "duck crepes". Defiantly one of the best dishes in Uncle Lee! 📌 Nouilles epicees au sesame/Sesame spicy noodles Ma Jiang Mian inspired dish. Love the overload creamy sesame paste! A cozy & satisfying vegan dinner! 📌Pain perdu & crème glacée, lait condensé au thé/French toast & ice cream, tea, condensed milk Uncle Lee's Hong kong-style French toast inspired creation. We LOVE the taste so much!! Please don't miss out to order this dessert!! Uncle Lee has an excellent service. We had a wonderful experience.View more
Great atmosphere, perfect service & AMAZING food. Could not recommend more.View more
Excellent nouveau restaurent! Les oeufs en hors d'oeuvre sont d'une maitrise totale, un bel équilibre de saveur. Oh & les desserts sont exceptionnels! (Sur le plat avec un genre de yogurt hyper cremeux & des fruits, le dessert avec un genre d epain & sauce de matcha, & crème brûlée) La facture étaient étonnamment vraiment basse pour le plaisir que j'ai eu! Je recommande, je vais revenir!!!View more
J'ai adoré mon expérience chez Oncle Lee. Je recommande particulièrement le plateau de canard, le crudo de saumon, les aubergines & il faut absolument se garder de la place pour le pain perdu! L'ambiance est animée & tamisée, parfaite pour une soirée entre amis ou en couple au bar. Le service était efficace & bien que nous avions réservé au premier service, nous n'avons pas du tout été pressées.View more
