Best Southeast Asian Restaurants in Toronto / Ontario

Having walked past the unassuming entrance on Carlton Street just east of Yonge it suggested coffee/pastry shop more than an actual restaurant. We read a good review and tried it. What a pleasant surprise. Inside was an expansive restaurant, with great table spacing, moderate noise level and attentive service. We started with the mushroom spring rolls and shishito peppers both excellent. For mains we had pad Thai with chicken, different presentation than normal but excellent. We chose a Californian Cabernet Sauvignon that was full bodied and excellent value. Great experience, we will definitely be back!

Lee Restaurant consistently exceeds my expectations. Every dish on the menu is a culinary delight, and I can confidently choose any item with my eyes closed, knowing it will be exceptional. The cocktails and mocktails are a journey of their own, infused with subtle Asian flavors that are truly out-of-this-world. Highly recommended! The ambience is phenomenal. Unlike other restaurants where the music is blaring like a nightclub, Lee Restaurant offers a serene environment where you can actually have a conversation with your dining companions. The service is impeccable, and our server, Gray, deserves an award for elevating the entire dining experience.

Nice place friendly staff... can vindicate excellent food for vegetarians because we are ...veg.
