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.

I had the soy marinated deviled eggs, sweet & sour eggplant, & & the spicy noodles. The deviled eggs & eggplant were incredibly delicious, seriously amazing & can't recommend enough. The noodles were good but not amazing, felt like they could have had a better flavor. The service was impeccable & ambiance was great. Highly recommend this place!

Solid spot, I'd recommend sticking to the small plates over the larger dishes & having a lot of variety. The eggplants & the scallops were the show stoppers.

Great atmosphere & service. Our waiter recommended the duck which we had with spicy noodles & greens with garlic. All were fantastic. We started with the calamari which was the best we'd ever had. A great place we'd highly recommend.

Honestly one of my favourite dining experiences in the city. Everything was extremely tasty & perfectly prepared from start to finish. We had the deviled eggs, the shrimp & pork wonton soup, the eggplant side, the sea bream & the French toast for dessert. The sea bream & French toast were my two favourite dishes but everything was SO good. Plus, it's a really pleasant setting with nice lights & decor (hence why all the pics are bright red). Highly recommend, & will be back!!

Went with a group of 6 for a birthday dinner, cannot say enough positive things! Beef tartare, sesame noodles & salmon rice cakes are just a few of many dishes we enjoyed, everything was fresh, innovative unique. Service was impeccable & friendly! Wish I was local so I could come back soon!
