Oncle Lee on Laurier Avenue West redefines Chinese dining with a distinctly Montreal twist. A creation of Andersen Lee and the minds behind Bouillon Bilk, the restaurant’s simple yet elegantly adorned space with sleek black banquettes and Chinese lanterns reflects a deep reverence for both the culinary and cultural aspects of Lee’s heritage. The menu reimagines traditional Chinese dishes through a local lens, featuring items like chow mein alongside innovative offerings such as steamed oysters with black bean. Oncle Lee also boasts a compelling drink selection, including bespoke cocktails and a thoughtful wine list, so meals celebrate refined tastes and communal dining.
