    Fabulous food. Sat at the bar and the bartender not only had stellar food recommendations but also wine suggestions. I enjoy California Chardonnay and am not familiar with Greek wines and he presented lovely options. The dips were wonderful with standout homemade pita. Delectable salad with heirloom tomatoes, feta, cucumber and onions. Patatas were great. Enjoyed the lamb chops with tzatziki but the standout was the tea brined chicken. GO!!!

    Such a magical venue and everything was fabulous overall! Next time we'll schedule a bit of a tour in advance of the reservation to make it an even more exciting outing! The plate sizes are huge so next time we also won't order quite so many sides - which of course also saves some $$$! Highly recommend and our service was impeccable !

    Been here probably 10 times and every time is always amazing. Food is great, service is great, ambiance is always nice. Cocktails are very good. A must to get the gelato every single time, it changes often.

    We came to Lee Restaurant for our anniversary dinner and had phenomenal experience, from the service to the meals prepared, it was the perfect date night. We selected all three “signature” dishes, the flavours of all were so unmatched from anything we have ever tasted before, nothing was missing, everything amazing. Each of the dishes are shareable which additionally makes it perfect for couples. We highly recommend to anyone, enjoy!
