Absolutely love this place! The food was delicious, the service was great, we got the hotpot & it was so fun to do with friends!! Highly recommend! The eggplant dish was also spectacular!
Nice lively place - had a great bday dinner experience. They have a main seating area & a separate garden area.
The food was great, highly recommend trying their duck & miso mushrooms. The food was so nice - did even had a chance to take a picture. The service was also excellent. Will definitely come again next time I'm in town
I had a wonderful dinner experience at Oncle Lee on Laurier. From the moment we walked in, we were welcomed with genuine warmth & positive energy. The hostess was friendly & guided us to our table with a smile.
The restaurant itself is beautifully decorated, with a cozy atmosphere & elegant red accents. One thing I really appreciated was that, despite the open kitchen concept, there was no lingering food smell in the dining room.
The service was outstanding. Our server was attentive, knowledgeable, & took the time to explain the menu & answer our questions.
To start, I ordered the spicy salmon on rice cake, & it was absolutely delicious. The contrast between the crispy rice cake & the fresh, tender salmon was perfectly balanced.
For my main course, I had the sweet & sour eggplant, topped with fresh coriander & crunchy peanuts. The portions are moderate, so if you have a big appetite, I'd recommend ordering a few dishes to share & enjoy more of the menu.
To finish, I ordered the pain perdu, & it was absolutely delicious.
Overall, everything exceeded my expectations. The prices are very reasonable considering the quality of the food, the attentive service, & the overall experience. The staff regularly checked on us, cleared empty plates promptly, & made us feel genuinely cared for throughout the evening.
I highly recommend Oncle Lee if you're looking for flavorful food, excellent service, & a cozy atmosphere in Montreal.

I went there for dinner date! everything was amazing ! i like the atmosphere! the music in background is a bit loud which makes it hard to have a conversation! duck is chewy & not well cooked! but the rest of the meal highly recommend!
On m'avait beaucoup parlé du Oncle Lee auparavant & c'était la première fois que j'y suis aller. L'ambiance & la nourriture était superbe au dessus des mes attentes!! Le service était également excellent avec des recommandations de vin au point.
Fortement recommandé!
I'd heard a lot about Uncle Lee's before, & this was my first time there. The atmosphere & the food were superb, exceeding my expectations! The service was also excellent, with spot-on wine recommendations.
Great food experience!
The Soju Negroni cocktail was excellent; great twist.
The calamari was excellent, although not plated well (hiding the calamari from view for the most part).
The five spice duck was extraordinary; very creative with all parts contributing to the experience. Wife had sea food lo mein: a great dish as well.
Highly recommended.
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.
We had a fantastic time. The food was delicious (Sautéed greens were 10 out of 10, as were the salmon rice cakes)! But above all, The service the service was exceptional. The staff were just really lovely & made our night better, always filling up our water & wiping the table down etc . The attention to detail was great & appreciated. Highly highly recommend for a fab time!! Also Great non-alcoholic options.
The atmosphere of the restaurant is beautiful.
We tried a variety of dishes from the menu & the ones that stood out were the salmon bites (appetizer) (8.5/10) & the miso mushrooms (9/10). We also tried the chow mein (6.5/10), the ribs with sweet sour sauce (7.5/10), the garlic fried vegetables (8/10) & the sesame spicy noodles (7/10).
The food was good & the price is reasonable (we were a group of four & shared everything). I did find that the food was too salty for my liking which hindered the flavors. I would highly recommend getting vegetables as it brings freshness & cuts the salt from other dishes. Note that the salmon bites are small, however I still recommend trying them out.
The service was great! I overall had high expectations for this restaurant & maybe should have picked dishes that were more varied to not get bored of the bold flavours.
Delicious modern twist on Chinese cuisine. The duck was perfection, loved all the condiments that came with it. The oysters were fresh, the deviled eggs were surprisingly flavorful. The standout dish was the mushrooms. Wow it's literally a burst of umami on the palate! Bravo to the chef! Service was friendly. Bar was unfortunately slow, it took 20mins to get cocktails each time. It was also very loud at 9pm on a Saturday, I felt like I was screaming at my partner the whole time. Would still highly recommend this restaurant for the food.
