Lo Kee has officially settled into Atlanta’s West Midtown, bringing a fresh blend of Asian‑fusion flavors and Southern comfort to the city’s dining scene. The restaurant sits at 2 Interlock Ave NW and has already started drawing attention for its bold menu, stylish atmosphere and the kind of energy that makes a night out feel special the moment you walk in.
Owners Dara Mirjahangiry and Ivi Shano are no strangers to creating buzz. They’re the team behind New York City’s celebrity‑favorite Sei Less, a hotspot known for hosting everyone from Kevin Hart and Mark Wahlberg to Cardi B and 50 Cent. Their experience shaping memorable dining moments shows up clearly in Lo Kee. This location has its own identity and rhythm that fits Atlanta’s culture.
Lo Kee’s menu leans into elevated comfort with dishes like Kung Fu Fried Chicken, Shanghai Spare Ribs, Nine Seasons Jumbo Prawns and Chicken Jo Lau. Each dish blends Asian‑inspired flavors with the soul you expect from Southern cooking. The plates feel familiar but still surprising, which is part of what makes the dining experience stand out.
The cocktail list is just as intentional. Drinks like the Lychee Martini, Lo Kee Sidecar, Yuzu Margarita and Sir Davis Sour are crafted to pair with the food and keep the experience feeling fun, polished, and social.
Whether you’re starting the night with a toast or settling into a long dinner, their drinks help set the tone.
Lo Kee seats up to 150 guests across its main dining room, bar and lounge and three private dining rooms that hold groups of 10 to 25.
The design mixes plush booths, moody lighting and artwork inspired by both NYC nightlife and Atlanta culture. The space moves easily from relaxed dinner to a more vibrant nighttime energy.
The restaurant also offers private event options and full‑service catering for on‑site and off‑site gatherings. With room for standing receptions of up to 200 guests and customizable menus and bar packages, Lo Kee is set up for everything from corporate dinners to milestone celebrations. It’s the kind of place that can shift from intimate to lively without losing its sense of style.
