This was a bit of a disappointment.

j c. on 08/02/2022
I know that four star usually means it's good but let me explain. We were here to celebrate my wife's birthday. We had an early reservation. We showed up 10 minutes eary and we were seated promptly. So far so good. Loved the mini chair for my wife's purse! Then we waited and waited for our waitress. It took over 5 minutes after we sat down before our waitress showed up to take our drink order. We were there early so it was really not very busy. We both chose duck tasting menu. My wife's chardonnay was excellent. The duck came out for carving. They only gave us two pieces each for total of four wrapped ducks. Then they took the duck away. Not sure if we got the rest of it. While the duck was flavorful, the skin was really not very crispy like the version at the Blossom Aria which we've had twice. Next was the duck salad which I think was the highlight of the meal. It had an interesting texture and was delicious. The next course was the duck siumai. Three pieces with watercress leaves. It was way too salty. Then the wait began. We waited and waited for the next course. After almost 15-20 minutes, the waitress came back that it was on it's way. When it showed up, we were almost full from drinking too much water because of the salty dumplings. The sauteed eggplant was beutiful with vibrant colors of all the vegetables. The duck fried rice was very flavorful. They brought out the dessert with candle to acknowledge my wife's birthday which was very nice.One complaint about the music they played. It was obnoxious and obrusive with very loud vocals, totally unfit for the classy restaurant like Wing Lei.Overall, it was a good experience but at this price point and considering the reputation, we expected more. As I wrote earlier, it was a bit of a disappointment.

Impecable Cuisine! Definitely a MUST
First Chinese restaurant in North America to have a micheline star, five star award Forbes and an impeccable service, cuisine and decoration. Their Imperial Peckin Duck is just extraordinary, and in every single one of their dishes you could feel an explosion of Cantonese, Shanghai & Szechuan flavors.
😍
We ordered the tasting menu and enjoyed every course.
The service was exceptional and the environment was elegant. Highly recommend if looking for an elevated Chinese dining experience.

We ordered the duck tasting menu.
Although we really enjoyed the duck we felt like we didn't get parts of the duck like the legs and meat with bones. We started with the duck skin with pancakes which was excellent but we felt like we didn't get enough skin. The duck salad was really flavorful but only came with two pieces of duck. The duck foie gras siu mai was good but you really can't taste the foie gras. For some reason there was a long wait to get the eggplant with duck and duck fried rice. Everything tasted great and the restaurant is beautiful. Would we dine here again? Not so sure.

Went for my birthday! Hands down one of the best meals I have EVER had!!! Everything was delicious; the watermelon palate cleanser, the welcome tea, the shrimp spring rolls, the bbq spare ribs, the crispy pork, the general taos chicken, the yang chow fried rice!!!!! ALL AMAZING!! Will definitely be going back - have to try one of the tasting menus!!!
😍
Truly transports you to a Chinese Palace, where everything
Truly transports you to a Chinese Palace, where everything is elaborate from the colors to the curtains, gold trims and silverware. We started with several orders of the garlic shrimp spring rolls which were light and crispy with not even a touch of oil or grease. General Tao's chicken was incredible with perfect high quality pieces of chicken and a zesty sauce. Other beef, chicken and pork dishes also were of the highest quality. Vegetable fried rice was amazingly addictive. Mushrooms and tofu also added a nice touch to the meal, service was impeccable and this visit we decided on just two desserts and the photo speaks for itself a work of art! Best Chinese food ever!
😍
Wow. This experience will be hard to be topped. The chef's
Wow. This experience will be hard to be topped. The chef's tasting menu was so well done, the pairings perfectly paired. Just incredible.Even if you can't go for the tasting menu, their full menu is incredible and can be approachable.And the service! I can't even say enough about how well they cared for us. This is a not to be missed in Vegas!
😍
Continues to be the best dining experience.
We have enjoyed several dinners here over the years and last evening's food/service only gets better each time. Do take time to try several appetizers - they are all delicious (garden dim sum) and will prepare your of the courses to follow. It is a beautiful environment and the staff is extremely careful and caring. Do plan ahead with reservations. And do plan to receive a great evening event. We continue to highly recommend Wing Lei.
🤮
I cannot I believe that I paid $230 for Chinese food that
I cannot I believe that I paid $230 for Chinese food that is no better than some take-out joint. I have eaten in China, San Francisco, New York, Singapore, and Taiwan. This place was like goopy, starch-laden food that was barely any better than panda express. I would even argue that Panda Express had better taste. You are paying for the ambiance, the place settings, and the table clothes. The food itself is not even okay; it's less than okay. It was a serious mistake to pay $26 for ma po tofu. Other than the fancy dishes the food is served on, this place is really over-rated. Whoever gave this a Michelin star from the Michelin guide really does not know Chinese food.
🙂
Wing Lei displayed remarkable hospitality.
The decor is beautiful and elegant. From what I ordered, the duck and the shrimp toast were the most tasty. The veggie fried rice and jellyfish were just mediocre.*Out of 5 starsShrimp toast Jellyfish Veggie fried rice Imperial duck

Had the privilege to dine at Wing Lei during my first
Had the privilege to dine at Wing Lei during my first travels since COVID. Being the first Chinese restaurant in North America to earn a Michelin star, this Forbes Travel Guide Five-Star winner did not dissappoint. Chef Ming Yu's attention to details and creative take on traditional chinese cuisine was out of this world. We ordered a set menu with their Imperial Peking duck. All of the food was amazing. If you are spending the money to come, you want to make sure you dedicate at least a couple hours as you want to soak in the atmosphere and enjoy their cocktails. We came for our friends birthday as we were staying at Encore so we didn't have to work about parking but I do recommend booking in advance. The ambiance was very elegant and dress to impress.Overall I highly recommend and would come again when in Vegas!
🙂
This is definitely quite the experience.
Service is friendly and courteous and the food is flavorful and delicious. We had two different tasting menus and shared bites amongst us. So many good dishes. The truffle soup dumpling is amazing, and there's never been any meat as tender as the braised short rib. Dessert was fun and a playful flair to end the meal.
🙂
If you like martinis you need to know this
This is a fantastic Chinese food restaurant for demanding clients. The place is very nice quiet and spacious. We highly recommend it. However there is one item that you need to know. The bartender does not know how to do a classic dry martini. When we ask him he says he never use vermouth. He just give you a chill gin in a glass.
😍
Wing Lei is where you must eat!
We are at Wing Lei for the first time with a dear friend who is a certified Master Chef. He and we all agreed how fantastic the food was! The service was without comparison and the ambiance added to the deliciousness of the food. You should visit! Very few places have food to meet the prices, Wing Lei is a great place for the price!
😍
Great experience and first class service
This was an amazing experience.
They pay a lot of attention to detail and give out some small complimentary appetizers and desserts. The taste was outstanding! Highly recommended
So much great food, awesome service and a memory of a lifetime. Dumplings, specialty drinks, scallops, rice, Chow mein, jellyfish, beautiful interior and wonderful service, peeking duck was absolutely the best in the world.

Wing Lei - Upscale, Classy (and Tasty) Chinese Food at the Wynn
5/5 by
dw732 on 04/03/2022
We ate at Wing Lei on my last trip to Vegas. This is probably my 4th or 5th time. You have to book a reservation weeks in advance to get a reservation between 6 and 7:30. I love eating there because:
1. Really good chinese food
2. Very classy, first class, high end atmosphere, presentation and service and
3. My meal is always comped.
1.We (three of us) had the Imperial Peking Duck (w steamed buns), Garlic Beef Tenderloin, Prawns with Candied Walnuts, Yang Chow Fried Rice. All of it was excellent. The Duck is carved tableside and prepared into the buns for you with the plum sauce, scalions, etc. They simply serve it to you for immediate consumption. One thing I questioned was that I thought they would bring out the rest of the duck meat for us to eat later, but that never happened. The prawns with walnuts is a fairly typical dish found in lots of chinese restaurants. But here they use extra large prawns and they were lighter, more freshly prepared. Excellent. The beef was super tender and delicious. All of these dishes one can find in any authentic (or even not authentic) chinese restaurant along Spring Mt Road. But at Wing Lei everything is prepared in premium fashion and tastes better.
2. The atmosphere at Wing Lei is very high classed and the service impeccable. One doesn’t think of using “chinese food” and “fine dining” in the same sentence. But at WL it is appropriate. The pre-meal small “chef’s “ dumpling they bring you, the after dinner sweet mini pastries, all of it adds up to a great experience.
3. I am chinese so I am super aware that the food here is tremendously over-priced. Our meal of $300+ probably would’ve cost less than $100 off strip at any of the chinese restaurants along Spring Mt Road. But this is to be expected in Vegas and particularly at the Wynn LV. Red 8 and Wazuzu are similar. So I would never pay these prices myself.
Still having said all that, I would still highly recommend Wing Lei. It is excellent and terrific eating experience in keeping with the whole Wynn Las Vegas vibe.
🙂
Some of the dishes on the menu have clearly been
Some of the dishes on the menu have clearly been westernized and lean more towards fusion cuisine than authentic Chinese. That being said, I felt the flavors had depth and worked well together in every dish we ordered. We got the Field Greens with Peking Duck as an app and the Jidori Chicken with Chili-Garlic Sauce and Braised Seafood Curry Rice as mains. It was plenty of food for 2 and we almost couldn't finish it. The complimentary amuse bouche and cakes (neatly wrapped in takeout box and bag) were nice touches to round out a very satisfying meal.
🙂
I went to WingLei after a rave recommendation by a good
I went to WingLei after a rave recommendation by a good friend of mine regarding their peking duck. It was definitely upscale and service was very solid. We ordered the peking duck, garlic beef tenderloins, marinated jellyfish, and three cup sea bass. Overall it was a 3.5/5 all things considered. Peking Duck: 4/5: Definitely the best peking duck I have had in the US so far. Skin is pretty crispy and meat is tender, and it met expectations. It is always a cool experience when they cut the peking duck in front of you. It is not going to compare to the peking duck you get in Beijing, but it definitely will scratch the itch. They also use some of the duck meat and mix it with I believe either a grated radish or bamboo and serve it in cabbage leaves. This was just alright to me but I liked the crunchiness.Garlic beef tenderloins 3.5/5: The beef was definitely tender, but it didn't really stand out otherwise. The portions were small as expected at this kind of restaurant, but I felt the overall taste was just alright. Kind of like beef stir fry but with a nicer, smaller cut of meat. Would not order it again.3 cup sea bass 4/5: Really nice texture. This dish was a positive surprise, with the fish being very tender and flavorful and it went really well with the rice. This was my 2nd favorite dish after the peking duck. I feel like with all the dishes here, they are seasoned fairly well and not too bland or too salty.Marinated Jelly fish 2/5: I grew up eating jelly fish marinated with vinegar, and I expect the pieces to have a tiny bit of crunch while still being refreshing. I kind of wish the pieces here were sliced more thinly, as some of the bigger pieces were a bit too crunchy to me and difficult to chew. Definitely do not recommend this. Overall a decent restaurant, I know a lot of the price is due to service, ambiance, and setting. The peking duck and 3 cup sea bass were great, but the other dishes were just ok. I wouldn't say the food is much better than a decent Chinese restaurant in Houston's China town (unless you only order the peking duck and 3 cup sea bass), but it was nice to experience.

How did they even get 1 michelin star??? Really questioning
How did they even get 1 michelin star??? Really questioning it. I've had Peking ducks all over the world and while their Peking duck is edible and maybe acceptable in American standards but it's a fail in my books (But still better than all of the "Peking" duck places in LA). The skin is not crispy enough. The duck is Feels more like an in between of HK roasted duck and peking duck. When the peking duck was brought to the table, the color itself is already off. Too much seasoning. Meat color was on the darker side which means it's a little bit dry. The way they cut it is questionable as well. Out of the entire duck, they only cut 4 skin for me on my plate. The rest were served on the plate as "duck". The way they cut it is not something I expect from a michelin star restaurant. See photos.Their thin pancakes and buns for the peking duck are good though.Dishes lacked wok hei (very important in cantonese cuisine). Go to Win Kee Cafe off the strip, they make better food with wok hei for 1/10 the price. If you want to charge these prices, please make sure your food tastes like this price.Ambience is nice, service is great but food isn't good enough to make me want to come back. Food is more modern like MOTT 32. If you're into modern chinese, this is the place for you but if you're looking for a more traditional cantonese food experience, I'd suggest Blossom at Aria. Don't waste your money or stomach space.

Excellent dining experience!The staff was very approachable
Excellent dining experience!The staff was very approachable and enthusiastic. Friendly and knowledgeable, able to make accommodations for our dietary requirements. The food was fantastic, delicious and flavored well, not too strong and not too subtle. We ordered the tasting menu and they were able to make substitutes for my friends who were pescatarian. We all had the Chef Ming Yu's Signature Dinner tasting menu, and it was marvelous. They were able to substitute the truffle soup and braised rib for seafood for my pescatarian friends. The drinks were delicious, and we tried most of them, all very good, can't go wrong, even the vodka drinks (and I don't like vodka generally) were very good, barely taste the vodka but you can definitely see them putting in the vodka at the bar. Highly recommend making a reservation, not sure you can get seated without one. They were quite on-time, seated within 10min of our reservation time. The tables were well maintained and the servers kept our table free of clutter and made sure we had everything we needed for a spectacular dining experience. Wynn has parking, trying to get there 10min earlier, parking takes a minute.
😍
We had a great dinner here.
The service was excellent from start to finish. Food was delicious. We tried the Pan-Seared Pot Stickers, Cantonese Wonton Soup, Mu Shu Pork, General Tao's Chicken, and Yang Chow Fried Rice. The Mu Shu Pork was our favorite. The General Tao's Chicken sauce resembled more of a sweet and sour sauce which was unexpected, but good.

The best Peking duck I've had outside of Beijing.
We got the tasting menu, and it was well worth it. I'd never had a wine pairing that complemented the food so perfectly. The wines had bold flavors, but really paired well with each dish. The Peking duck was amazing, with the traditional crepe & hoisin. At first I wished I could've just ate more of it this way, but I had no idea how great the next few dishes would be. Funny that they covered the head with a napkin while carving it tableside.The same duck is used for all dishes in the tasting menu (except the dessert). The duck salad with wine pairing was my favorite dish. Served with truffles, but not overpowering. I hate when people just throw truffles on the plate to make it fancy. This dish actually went nicely with the truffles, and it didn't outshine the duck.The fried rice entree was good, but nothing spectacular.100% recommend the Peking duck here. Although I think the a la carte duck comes with steamed buns, not the crepe.Can't forget to mention the cute little chairs they bring out for your bag. Genius! I really don't know why nobody else does that. The service was exceptional!

If you want to call this an authentic Chinese restaurant, it's not.... If you want to call it a fusion, it's absolutely not.... There are dish that's very authentic Chinese, but there are also dishes that are catered towards westerners. We in particular LOVE the steam whole fish (maybe the sou sauce just a tad on the light side but the fish was definitely VERY FRESH and steamed perfectly)! Too bad they do not carry traditional Cantonese style soup(s)... Will definitely go back for the fish.....

Foods are delicious especially the duck very crispy and the bun are thin and yummy.The only concern are the servers they need to be more professional when asked and speak with customers

For the dim sum brunch.
It was a solid 3. Food was excellent all great quality as one would expect. I even enjoyed the cocktail which were surprisingly affordable at only $18 a piece. I was underwhelmed by the service. Had to ask for water refill multiple times. I ask for dim sum and the gentleman stopped the cart 3 tables away and I had to walk over and reach over another customer table to grab food... we aren't at a Chinatown dim sum place hah. But overall for food quality and the cheap price I would definitely do it again. But it's only available twice a year for Christmas and CNY. Food 5 stars with 1 star service. Brunch was $98 this year, total with tip was $150.

FOOD CULTURAL APPROPRIATION food lacking authenticity is ‘cultural appropriation2
1. Wok-fried Maine lobster. Lobster is not indigenous to China. Imports are mainly from Australia and the USA. Cooking in a wok is a Chinese style method.
2. Crispy Pork with Sweet & Sour Sauce* 咕嘍肉 35.88 Pineapple, Heirloom Bell Peppers, Pearl Onions (Chinese-American modification for western tastes by battering, sweetening, frying. Sweet-and-sour sauces do exist in China, but are mostly eaten with fish dishes. And most importantly, the sauce lives in a separate dish which the diner uses for dipping. )
3. General Tao’s Chicken 左宗雞 35.88 Balsamic Chili Sauce, Baby Bok Choy (Chinese-American modification of a Chinese dish for western tastes)
4. Lemon Chicken* 香酥檸雞 35.88 Frisée, Honey Lemon Sauce
(In China, the chicken is steam. Common take out food from Canadian Chinese. and Chinese-Indian restaurants. Generally fried for Western tastes)
5. Pan-Seared Lamb Chops* 香煎羊排 61.88 (Western and not Chinese dish)
6. Fried Prawns with Candied Walnuts* 核桃蝦球 45.88 Romaine Lettuce, Creamy Kalamansi Honey Sauce (Adapted for western taste again frying and adding candied walnuts as well as honey sauce. A Chinese-American dish)
7. Garlic Beef Tenderloin* 蒜片黑椒牛柳 52.88 Heirloom Bell Peppers, Sugar Peas, Seasonal Mushrooms, Black Pepper Sauce (western dish)
8. Wing Lei Sampler 永利拼盤 42.88 King Crab Salad, (2) BBQ Spare Ribs, (2) Shrimp Toast Sliced
(Shrimp Toast heavy in oil and a favorite Chinese American take out item. King crab generally sourced from Alaska.)
9. Worst offender? Imperial Peking duck and also listed by Wing Lei as Peking duck.
Is this an American version of Duck called Peking Duck. YES/NO?
Note fully authentic serving practices and modified.
What is the breed of the duck?
Was the duck hung and dried for the appropriate period of time?
If the duck is not special ordered in advance and is soon ready to be served, how long has it been sitting since it was cooked and then reheated?
Even in China they have prepackaged cooked "Peking Duck" that they sell at the airport when departing Beijing's Airport, Does Wing Lei do something similar to this?
If not, is duck hung and cooked in an open oven style?
Is air pumped to separate skin from the meat?
Perhaps the name should be changed to American Peking Duck or something else on the menu if modified cultural appropriation.
Description issues:
Seafood Hot & Sour Soup 酸辣湯 18.88 Mushrooms, Wood Ear, Bamboo, Maine Lobster,
(Description should read bamboo shoots. Wood ear is in the mushroom family. Don't know what other types of mushrooms are added).
Calories:
The appetizers, side dishes and desserts are no more than 250 calories each and the main courses are 500 calories or less
1. Egg rolls us a delicious little crispy packet that only takes a couple of bites to consume, but therein lies the problem. Taken on its own, a single egg roll is 222-calorie,
2, Fried rice results in an oily, starchy, undeniably delicious, but totally unnecessary calorie addition. Calories can be reduced depending on the type of oil used. What type of oil is used? Generally a cup-sized portion starts at 200 calories.
Many other issues but the above are of concerns that currently stand out.
Looking forward to your input. Also, for transparency and truth in advertising, first Chinese to win Michelin One star should have a footnote that this was in 2008-2009, Thirteen years has passed.
A star indicates excellent cooking. Two stars are referred to as good tasting cooking worthy of exploring a little bit; and three stars are regarded as exceptional tasting cuisine worth getting into.
From what I heard, one of the reasons Wing lei has 5 stars from Forbes is because of excellent service, superior decor. . .
In addition, live seafood advertised. I didn't see any live seafood.
Will live seafood be selected and presented prior to cooking?
In some Chinese restaurants, they will be taken out of the tanks.

Wing Lei - Chinese Fine Dining.
FOOD CULTURAL APPROPRIATION food lacking authenticity is 'cultural appropriation. Some restaurants will change Chinese Fine Dining to Asian American fusion food. Or perhaps Chinese American Fine Dining.1. Wok-fried Maine lobster. Lobster is not indigenous to China. Imports are mainly from Australia and the USA. Cooking in a wok is a Chinese style method. Also Chinese v Western method for preparing lobsters. Chinese rinse the lobster, and hold it belly up. At the bottom of the tail, there is a small opening, stick a long skewer in it to drain any urine left in its' body. This seems to be generally unfamiliar with Westerners cooking lobster.2.

It can be under your name or a name you choose! Some reservation offers already include the AppointmentTrader Transfer Service which will transfer the reservation in to your name. If its not included you can add it on after buying the reservation for a small fee. One thing on that though: As many reservations become available at last minute, taking a reservation in someone else name is quick and great for privacy. Most reservations on AT are listed with a virtual phone number, so all you need to do is present the phone number at the hostess stand and you are good to go!
