Our server Gray was extremely helpful inattentive to our needs as a big party of nine. She took ample time explaining the menu and accommodated to all of our restrictions and preferences with a chef's tasting menu. Each course was fantastic. The tasting menu gave us the opportunity to try a number of items on the menu which was great. There were number substitutions that we made due to preferences and these were accommodated with options that were fantastic. Kudos to the entire team for an amazing night out!

Lee was an easy 5-star experience! The food was incredible, the service was excellent, and the servers were exceptionally kind and friendly. I’ll definitely be returning. The dessert we ordered was amaaaazing & I was surprised at how good the slaw was. The braised beef was definitely top of my list after the slaw.

The new Lee restaurant is just wow! The new location is completely different to the previous Lee - it’s much more modern, has higher ceilings, warm, beautiful lighting and is just a beautiful restaurant with its decor. Perfect for a girls night out or date night with its new ambience. As always, the food is incredibly delicious and the service is so attentive and professional. Well worth the treat to come here! Fave dishes include the famous slaw, braised beef, beef gyoza and dessert platter!

We knew going in that it was going to be an expensive night, but let’s face it—everywhere in Toronto (or the GTA) is pricey. That said, we had high expectations, and Lee Restaurant met them in every way! We opted for the Chef's Tasting Menu, and we’re so glad we did. The chef even accommodated a few substitutions, which was a thoughtful touch. Every course was an absolute delight—each bite left us wanting more. The food was phenomenal, and the service truly elevated the experience. Gray, our server, went above and beyond to ensure we had a memorable evening. Without a doubt, we’ll be back for more!

My birthday experience at Lee's was great. We went with the Signature Singapore Slaw with Tuna ceviche, Cheeseburger Spring Rolls & Asian Slow Braised Beef. ALL of It was prepared to perfection. 👌🏾 Drinks were mixed well. The layout is good, Ambiance was cool and was approached by a pair of friendly older ladies who told us what their favorites are.

This is the second visit to Lee and it was just as amazing as the first. The staff were all super friendly and attentive, and the food is AMAZING! Super fair prices for the outstanding quality of the food, and DO NOT SLEEP on the wine pairing for the Singapore Slaw!

Food was great! No real complaints there. Atmosphere is casual but can get uncomfortably loud at times, especially when seated directly beneath the ceiling mounted speakers. Being constantly hit with a bass rumble isn’t something I enjoy whilst dining. The biggest letdown by far…the standard of service. Disappointing. It’s as if training was almost entirely ignored. Our main server wore obnoxiously sharp, putrid perfume - a massive issue when it blocks out any BBQ notes from the duck. Additionally, I’ve never seen a server treat glassware so recklessly - dropping the neck of a bottle on the rims, bumping dishes into glasses. At least service was friendly and enthusiastic.

It was our first time there, the place was beautifully decorated. The staffs were amazing and attentive. Food came out fast, the 24 ingredients salad were phenomenal. I love seeing the chef interacting with customers, you don’t see that very often with well known high end restaurants. The drink were amazing as well. We also loved our waiter, he has a lot of passion for his job. He even surprised us with a little dessert at the end. We travel from Barrie and this is the first time at a restaurant in the city where we felt like it was worth it to drive/ stuck in traffic for aha 10/10 will be back
