Review
Once the standout in a sleepy Chinatown, General Lee’s heartbeat has remained constant over the years as the neighborhood’s nightlife has grown to match the tempo of its weekend DJs. Fridays and Saturdays are the most club-like in this storied split-level building that was once a Frank Sinatra haunt. Downstairs has more room to groove while upstairs is more of a loungey vibe. Weekdays slow down a bit with social events like mahjong on Mondays and groovier DJs playing to a diverse crowd.
Tropical signature cocktails like the Sloe & Easy pull rarities like sloe gin and tamarind together with breezy pineapple for a fun dancefloor concoction, while classics set the tone for a loungier evening. If you’re tired of traditional bottle service, reserving a section will allow you to order a dangerously delicious punch bowl (or two, if you dare) for your group. There’s not much in the way of non-alcoholic drinks, but their house ginger beer won’t leave you minding too much.
