Honestly the music was a bit loud, but it’s nothing that stops this place from a 5 star.

I made the right decision. After years of wanting to experience this restaurant, I made it for a winterlicious dinner. Firstly, portion sizes did NOT disappoint. I was shocked. I was full before I got halfway through my main. The fried snapper and Guyanese curry absolutely deserves a spot on the main menu. I'm a curry snob and this was perfection. It will definitely stay on my mind. The drinks were really good. I had a Georgetown Gyal and before finishing the first, I ordered another. Our waitress, Nia, was excellent. She was attentive, cleared plates quickly and so personable. The music was great, and had me dancing and singing between bites the whole night. Clearly I'm passionate about food and dining, but this experience was truly top tier and have not a single complaint. KEEP THE CURRY!!! Thanks to everyone involved!

Spectacular meal last night at Lee. First - it's a beautiful and elegant space. Second - the service was excellent. Third - the food was not only beautifully presented, it was all perfectly prepared and very, very good, with many interesting and appealing options on the menu. My best meal out in Toronto in quite a while.

My experience at Oretta was exceptional. From the food to the service it could not have been better. We went there to celebrate a birthday and they went above and beyond what we were ever expecting. We were able to bring in our own cake and they even refrigerated it and served it to us with candles on it. Our server was incredible; she was so helpful and kind the entire time. Could not recommend this place enough for a special occasion or even just to enjoy a dinner out!
