    We started with the signature Singapore slaw which was amazing. The tuna tartare was a delight as well. Next we enjoyed the Malaysian vegetable Curry which was total comfort food. The Char Siu BBQ Duck was nice too although a bit chewy and we took half of it home to leave space for a dessert. The Sai Mai Lo was the perfect ending to an unusual and exciting dinner. The service was impeccable and we felt we made the right choice to celebrate our anniversary in this beautiful restaurant.

    Dining at Lee in Toronto was nothing short of extraordinary — a culinary experience that absolutely lived up to its reputation. From the moment we stepped in, we were immersed in a setting that felt both upscale and inviting, the perfect ambience for a memorable night out. The service was impeccable — attentive without being overbearing, knowledgeable about the menu, and genuinely passionate about making our experience unforgettable. It’s clear the staff here are as dedicated to hospitality as the kitchen is to its craft. Now, onto the food — truly to die for. Every dish was a masterclass in flavor, texture, and presentation. The Singaporean-style slaw was a standout: vibrant, fresh, and bursting with a complex mix of sweet, sour, and spicy notes. A tower of taste that’s both playful and precise. We also tried the hamburger spring rolls, which were an unexpected delight — crispy on the outside, juicy and savory on the inside, with all the nostalgic comfort of a burger, elevated into something new and exciting. But the Caribbean pork ribs were arguably the showstopper — fall-off-the-bone tender, richly marinated, with a glaze that perfectly balanced smoky, sweet, and spicy flavors. Portions were well-balanced, leaving us full and satisfied without being overwhelmed — and we absolutely felt we got our money’s worth. This is fine dining with substance, where every bite feels considered and generous. Lee delivers exactly what you expect from a Delicacy Troupe restaurant: innovation, flair, and exceptional quality. It’s a must-visit for anyone serious about food in Toronto.

    The restaurant and ambiance was so nice. The service was amazing. They’re very knowledgable about the menu. I highly recommend the bao buns, The Singapore style law that they toss table side and the lucky shrimp cheung fun all three dishes were absolutely delicious and unique. I would recommend this spot for a date night.
