The resto's unassuming facade makes you wonder if the food was good enough to suit the diverse cultural palates of Edmontonians. But once you step into the awning, you'd feel as if you've been swept into a different world--a magical place. The interior was bright and cozy. There's an authentic but distinct feel to it that makes you miss home. It makes you feel relaxed and peaceful. It felt like someone just switched something on deep inside you and you'd just stand there gaping in awe.The hosts are very accomodating. There was only one nice lady taking orders and doing the serving by herself so it took some time for our food to be served but that was nothing compared to the camaraderie and the light atmosphere as well as the excellent service offered by Lee House. The food was as delicious and as authentic as far as Korean dishes go but it was made less spicy to cater to patrons and customers not used to the fiery hot dishes Koreans are known for. I prefer the fiery hot Korean food but the pork cutlets and soft tofu soup as well as the kimchi bean paste stew we had was enough to send my friend and I to heaven and back. I'll never get tired of going back to eat at this place. Guess what. We didn't realize we've been savoring the food as well as the surroundings that we stayed for almost 2 hours. Daebak! That's a Korean expression that shows disbelief but in a good way, leaning a little bit towards a feeling of awesomeness.

Unfortunately, after the renovations the quality of the food and menu selections changed for the worse. We thought that because they call themselves Lee House Express they would offer some of the items from the original menu (just not as many choices since they were only an Express location;) however we were incorrect. The menu had very few choices (a lot of ramen type dishes) and the quality certainly wasn't there. For what they are offering, you can go to a better Korean restaurant, like Wing Chix. If you want awesome Korean food and the authentic Lee House experience, go to the Chinatown location! You will not be disappointed!

The service was very friendly and attentive, with little service buttons you can press at your table to call the server over. We ordered fried chicken for an appetizer and I had bibimbap for my main and both were delicious. The four banchan were good, with the kimchi and seaweed as standouts. Everything was well priced, especially given the quality. I want to come back and try the bulgogi!

However, the area around the locations on 97th Street and 106th Avenue is questionable and can feel unsafe, especially at night. My family is not a fan of the location. Nevertheless, the food was very delicious.
