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.

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.

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.

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!!!
