Review Summary

Oncle Lee offers a vibrant and stylish dining experience in Montreal, celebrated by many for its imaginative fusion of Asian flavors and cozy, well-decorated atmosphere. Guests frequently highlight the five-spice duck, crispy rice salmon bites, and umami-rich mushroom dishes as standout menu items, often complemented by a thoughtful selection of cocktails and sake. While the service is consistently described as attentive, warm, and highly professional, opinions on the experience are nuanced; some patrons find the flavor profiles and modern creative twists to be a gastronomic triumph, while others point to occasional inconsistencies in portion sizes, pricing, or noise levels. Despite a few mixed feelings regarding the value and saltiness of certain dishes, the restaurant remains a popular destination for group celebrations and casual outings, particularly for those who appreciate a lively environment and a refined approach to shared plates.

Ce serait plus autour d'un 3.5/5 pour moi. Pour avoir essayé plusieurs restaurants du groupe Bouillon Bilk, c'était mon expérience la moins plaisante parmi leurs établissements.

Service adéquat, plats un peu trop salés qui finissent par manquer de contraste (& l'on a pris une grande variété de saveurs). La dorade sauce ponzu était tout au plus correcte, moi qui aime beaucoup ce type de préparation normalement. Deux plats (la dorade & le riz frit) étaient généreusement garnis de chou, ce qui n'aidait pas à la redondance.

Bref, peut-être que la permutation exacte des plats que l'on a commandé était sub-optimale, car j'ai beaucoup aimé mon expérience au Oncle Lee Kao sur McGill, ou que j'ai été simplement malchanceux.

Super bon service, la serveuse était vraiment gentille & attentionnée! La nourriture était excellente, surtout les bouchées de riz au saumon qui étaient incroyables. On va définitivement revenir :)

Quelle expérience mémorable! Je suis allé avec ma mère pour son anniversaire & c'était génial. Le service est impeccable & nous avons adoré tous les plats du début à la fin. Le canard aux 5 épices avec ces accompagnements est un incontournable à prendre absolument & le bian Dang est une belle option pour goûter à différentes choses à petit prix. Gardez vous de la place pour le dessert, car le pain perdu & la tartelette au chocolat valent vraiment la peine aussi !

The food is great, they all have a new combination & taste I haven't tried before but go really well with each other. The customer service is great, they usually come to ask how is it & pour water for us. The ambience is also great, but I think sometimes the music is too loud I can't hear what the waitress is saying. Price is not cheap but compatible with the quality of the food. We go 2 people & order 3 dishes, was enough for us to be full.

Will recommend for everyone to come try 😄

Finally a place that lives up to hype! A lot of crap on social media nowadays gaining popularity for nothing. But Oncle Lee delivers! The food was honestly mind blowingly delicious, it was original & imaginative & just an absolute pleasure. You're not going there to get stuffed on a budget. You're going there for a gastronomic experience that will leave you wanting more. Highly recommend.

This is one of those places in Montreal that you want to take your friends from out of town to, to show them what they are missing out on. I can't even single out one dish that stood out, because they all did! We had one of the set group menus, but also ordered à la carte. The staff were all amazing as well. Just go there.
