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

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!
