    Our waiter Shane was incredibly impressive, kind respectful and attentive. Made us feel welcome from the moment we sat down. Would recommend the Singapore Slaw to share! We will be going back.

    Great flavours and great ambiance. The cod and braised beef dishes were our favourites. We also enjoyed the slaw. The octopus carpaccio was very spicy; maybe too much. We devoured the molten chocolate cake, which was one of the best. The dessert sampler of all-time favourites was also enjoyable and a nice mix of flavours The portion sizes were better than expected. One of the most memorable meals we’ve had in years. Would definitely come back.

    The food was amazing but we were seated in the ‘private dining room’ which felt like we were in a large coat closet. For the food and price we expected more of an ambiance.

    An excellent experience to dine at Lee. Our server Nikita was exceptional in her personal touch to the service. Had the best time with my fiancé. And i don't even have to say it but the food is out of this world.

    The food, as ever, is brilliant, creative. Service is outstanding. The room has great ambiance and is quiet, even at peak service. Susar Lee’s food is the star! It’s expensive, but worth it.

    Disappointing. Had to send 2 dishes back. Ambiance has lost its touch. Service was terrible. Could not understand what any waiter described, it took 15 minutes to get water and we had to flag someone down for refills. One highlight: very charismatic bartender. She was fun!
