About this restaurant

Good for special occasions
Innovative
Great for fine wines

Lee Ho Fook means ‘good fortune for your mouth’ - inspired from the Warren Zevon lyrics in Werewolves of London.
A Chinese restaurant, hidden down a Melbourne laneway, off the iconic Flinders Lane dining precinct.

Our cuisine takes the legacy of deliciousness given to us by generations of Chinese Australians and taking it to a highly personal and creative direction.

A new style of Chinese cuisine.

From the mind of Victor Liong.

One of Melbourne’s best. Try the crab noodles, the eggplant, the fujian fried rice and the rest of the menu. The food is outstanding.

One of our party is coeliac This restaurant is billed as reasonably high end but did not present to us as expected We have travelled the world including China and we had GF pancakes , GF soy sauce ,GF hoisin sauce ,rice flour for frying instead of wheat flour etc. etc. None of these options were offered Serving Peking duck with lettuce leaves instead of pancakes and no sauce was not good enough Taste???? Wait Staff were OK but unfortunately weren't able to offer alternatives . Drink service was slow coming from upstairs

Very disappointing experience. Of the four dishes we tried, only one (the eggplant) was of better quality than what you'd get at the most basic, and much cheaper, Chinese restaurant. The dumplings honestly tasted store -bought, and both the lamb shoulder and prawn noodles were bland and insipid. On the plus side, the wine was quite good.
