    Had the tasting menu and it was out of this world. Such a pleasure to eat the food of someone who really understands the pleasure of extraordinary flavour combining. I can’t remember the last time I’ve had food that was so thoroughly enjoyable and in fact, thrilling. Can’t wait to go back!

    We were celebrating our wedding anniversary and let the server know. She went out of the way to decorate the dessert plate with a message. Was a good touch and very thoughtful. The food quality and servings are excellent as usual. Cannot say enough about the great service and attention to detail.

    Food was great, our server Dillon was outstanding, kept us amused and took care of our table, until we were told we had to leave because of the next reso had arrived. Just found it odd after spending over $800 that we had to leave. I love Lee’s but that will be the last time at the restaurant. Thanks for being so good to us Dillon! Salute’

    As always the food was superb. The sommelier recommended a sparkling red wine to compliment the famous coleslaw salad and it was wonderful. This was the first time drinking sparkling red wine. It is definitely wont be the last.

    We love coming to Lee for family dinners! Food is fantastic and the hot & sour soup is nostalgic. Our server was great, however the service is lacking because the timing between meals is erratic and you snap out of the trance because each course takes so much time. our dessert menu (which I had to ask for in the first place!) took long and then the desserts took forever to come out. Other great restaurants have figured the timing out…Lee can do it too. Also random people serve you each meal that dose not allow you to build a connection with anyone. Cheers to opening a new place in 2023 and hope Lee can figure out their story telling!

    Everything was exceptionally good. Only thing I was not a fond of was, a dessert we ordered SIGNATURE FRENCH AND CHINESE TONG YUEN was not good. The passion fruit sauce was too tangy and overwhelming ruining the taste bud in our opinion. It was too sour and bitter. There were 4 of us that tried it, and we did not enjoy that one bit. I would recommend them to change the sauce... Overall, we had a great experience. I was a fan of his first restaurant Susur Lee (went there a few times) before Lee was created. This is my 4th time going at Lee's and each time I bring in new people to experience the exceptional culinary of Lee's amazing food. I would definitely go back. Kudos to our server who was amazing along with other staff there!
