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 like Xiaolongbao and Char Siu Bao, while creative offerings such as Foie Gras Blackberry Dumplings with Brown Butter Miso Crumb showcase culinary innovation in this celebration of Chinese American fare. A deep champagne and wine list complements the menu, and at the 14-seat Pink Italian Stone bar, classic cocktails are shaken up with unique spice combinations and Asian-produced liquors, like a Manhattan riff “Doyer’s Street” made with Chinese five-spice infused Bourbon and Fernet Michaud from 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.

    Lucky Cheetah is beautifully-decorated and has an interesting cocktail list. However, the food was lackluster. Everyone is given a trio of sauces, but those do not make up for a lack of flavor and seasoning. Prices were high for what you get. The wagyu eggrolls were perfectly crunchy, but lacked seasoning and I was expecting something much better for an $20 price point. Also, some weather-proofing could be added. Every time someone entered or exited the establishment, a gust of cold blew in. It made the dining experience less enjoyable.
