About this restaurant

  • Great for creative cocktails
  • Good for special occasions
  • Hot spot
Dumpling enthusiasts and champagne lovers alike can indulge in in the elevated, yet unpretentious fine-dining experience offered in this sexy, and intimate underground hideaway. The menu honors Cantonese classics with dishes Char Siu Bao, while creative offerings such as Lobster Dumplings with Scallion Sabayon showcase culinary innovation in this celebration of Chinese American fare. A deep champagne and wine list complements the menu, and at the 11-seat Pink Italian Stone bar, classic cocktails are shaken up with unique spice combinations and Asian-produced liquors, like an Old Fashioned riff “Old Prosperity” made with Bourbon and Amaro Nonino at Portland, ME

Note: Table reservation durations: 1.5 hours for parties of two, 2 hours for parties of 4 or more. Walk-in seats are available at the bar.

    Great experience! Beautiful decor, great atmosphere, phenomenal service, and great eats. We tried SO many dishes, and they were all delicious. Personal favorites were the Oxtail Ho Fun and Wagyu Egg Rolls. Highly recommend!

    Sat at the bar and had a fabulous meal. We had four of the small plates for 2 of us and that was plenty. The shumai, pork dumplings and broccolini were all fantastic and the baby corn was SO delicious and surprising. Cocktails are creative and service was perfect. Great addition to Portland!

    We went to Lucky Cheetah to celebrate a birthday and our experience was fantastic. The food was excellent, atmosphere was exotic chic, but what was most notable was the service. Our waiter was informative and attentive with a happy disposition. Always made sure our drinks were flowing and food arriving quickly. The hostess was the SWEETEST! As we were leaving a thunderstorm broke out and she gave us an umbrella for our long walk back to the car. This restaurant is top notch! Would high recommend!
