The sesame noodles & eggplant were a bit above average but together they made a surprisingly nice combination. I loved the way the eggplant was cooked to perfection & the sauce was delicious. My main complaint is the bacon wasn't necessary but they said it was for saltiness. The peanuts on the eggplant were out of place too but went well when mixed with the sesame noodles. Maybe the peanuts should go on the sesame noodles instead but I think they should have been smaller pieces. When I gave my feedback about the eggplant to the waiter he offered to take it back at no charge but I didn't want to waste food because it wasn't bad. The service was really good the whole time & the restaurant was beautiful.
I came back & had both types of oysters : black bean & the yuzu mignonette. Both delicious & high quality but expensive. 10 oysters for $50.. still, I don't regret trying them
The service & place is very nice. Had the the tofu dip (8/10) & tartare (7.5) which were probably my favorites. The spicy noodles (7.5) & veggies (7.5) are good. Not a fan of this version of peking duck (6.5). The sauces, daikon, peanuts almost makes it taste like a banh mi instead of the traditional chinese duck.
Overall decent for a first time, but don't expect traditional taste.
wonton soup is good!
spicy noodle with tomato doesnt isnt great
papaya salad is crunchy & great!
lamb squewers sauce wasnt good.
Oncle Lee on Laurier is the kind of meal you keep thinking about long after you've left the table.
We started with fried calamari & shrimp - simple, but executed perfectly. Then scallops in XO sauce, & a ceviche so creamy & flavourful it stopped the conversation at the table. A strong opening act.
The spicy sesame noodles & garlic fried rice followed - both loved, both demolished. Fair warning: there's an aioli mayo on the rice that isn't for everyone. It wasn't for me. Didn't stop me from scraping every last grain.
Then came the highlight of the night: the five-spice duck platter. A refined spin on Peking duck - perfectly cooked duck breast served with pancakes, sauces, cilantro, peanuts, & chilli oil. Elegant & deeply satisfying. The kind of dish that justifies the trip on its own.
We finished with the pain perdu - French toast with ice cream. The right ending to a remarkable meal.
Michelin rated. The service is excellent & attentive throughout. If you're visiting Montréal, this is a non-negotiable stop.

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.
Really enjoyed our experience here. Walked in at 8 pm on a Tuesday & were sat no problem. Service is fast & attentive!
We got the duck, sesame noodles & eggplant.
Duck platter was a great experience, with complimentary refills of the side sauces & veggie filling.
Sesame noodles on their own were just okay, but pared with the eggplant added much needed texture variety & punchy flavour.
We left full & satisfied!
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.
Ordered the hot pot, spicy noodles & mushrooms. Very disappointed to receive a plate of soba noodles & mushrooms drowning in a sauce flavoured with burnt garlic. All the dishes created a meal of indistinguishable flavours. I like trying new places & this was a birthday dinner letdown.
Super découvre pour nous! Je ne connaissais pas ce resto mais j'en avais entendu parlé & une amie voulait y aller donc nous nous sommes donc installé au bar & franchement l'endroit est cozy, la musique pas trop forte, un bon petit vibe relax, j'adore. Le service avec le jeune homme au bar était très moyen puisque plutôt absent mais la nourriture a compensé. J'ai été conquise par les saveurs de chacun des plats, les épices, les sauces tout était savoureux. Coup de coeur pour les champignons & la trempette au tofu. Ce que j'ai le moins aimé, rien. Je le recommande.
Pas mal!!!
Les +: l'emplacement, le service incroyable, le lieu sympathique,
La carte proposée avec peu de choix
Les - :une quantite faible pour le prix, une denaturation des produits avec la sauce, j'ai trouvé que les pétoncles etaient un peu gâchées par la sauce trop acide notamment.
Extrêmement bruyant!
Par contre, desserts au top!
Je ne sais pas si j'y retournerai pour etre honnête car ce n'est pas non plus incroyable,
Merci pour le service qui par contre etait top!
