Review Summary

Oncle Lee offers a vibrant, modern take on Asian fusion cuisine that leaves many guests impressed by the imaginative flavors and high-quality ingredients. The five spice duck platter and the spicy sesame noodles frequently stand out as must-try dishes, while the French toast dessert earns consistent praise as a perfect finale. Although the restaurant is highly regarded for its attentive service and lively, trendy atmosphere, some diners find the noise levels can be challenging and the pricing relatively high for the portion sizes provided. While a majority of visitors describe their experience as exceptional and memorable, a few guests have noted concerns regarding salt levels or inconsistent value, making it a destination best suited for those seeking a creative gastronomic experience rather than a budget-friendly meal.

Jolie terrasse à l'arrière, service impeccable & bouffe savoureuse, que demander de plus?

This was such a great meal. Favorite dishes were the spicy noodles, ribs, & spicy salmon on rice cake. Service was a little slow but food was on point. It was nice to sit on the patio but the inside space had a great vibe too.

I had been wanting to try this place for some time & now that I finally have, it exceeded my expectations. Great selection, tasty food, lovely vibe, excellent service. This is definitely a place I'll be coming back to again & again when in the mood for well executed, inspired Asian food.

Dreadfully disappointing experience on a culinary level. We were a party of four, harbouring a healthy Sunday evening excitement for this place, only to be met with a mediocre, & perplexing, sequence of fusion missteps. Some things were fine: like the cucumber salad, but inevitably just that. The counterbalance was apathetic & carelessly detailed; like the cilantro garnish on our duck main, which was caked with so much sand to evoke Oka beach; or the calamari entrée...which is actually to die for...if you are a fetishist of deep-fried batter. Also delusional was the portion to price ratio. Finally we had to speculate if this restaurant was perhaps a conceptual endeavour; making a poignant statement about our appetite for empty gestures as the ultimate dish of capital logic.

The food is okay. A bit better than average. The prices don't make sense. Calamari $18 was ove-fried & small. Duck ($50) was nice but... maybe 4 oz. The vegetables were good at least.

Bonne bouffe asiatique & super ambiance. Nourriture bien exécutée, mais rien de renversant.
