Our Story

Lo Kee is an elevated Asian fusion restaurant and cocktail lounge in West Midtown Atlanta, created by the co-founders of New York City's Sei Less, Dara Mirjahangiry & Ivi Shano. Located at The Interlock, Lo Kee brings together bold Asian-inspired cuisine, signature cocktails, private dining, and a vibrant late-night atmosphere.

The vision behind Lo Kee was to create more than a restaurant. It was designed to feel like a destination, a place where guests can enjoy dinner, cocktails, celebrations, private events, and Atlanta nightlife in one elevated setting.

Lo Kee's menu is made for sharing, featuring Asian fusion dishes, dim sum, spring rolls, seafood, noodles, rice, and chef-driven entrées. Guest favorites include oxtail spring rolls, yellowtail sashimi, lobster spoons, yuzu miso salmon, and other dishes crafted with creativity, comfort, and bold flavor.

The cocktail program is a major part of the Lo Kee experience. Signature drinks like the Lychee Martini, Lo Kee Sidecar, and Yuzu Margarita are crafted to complement the menu while giving the bar and lounge its own identity.

The Design — fully created and directed by Ivi Shano, whose vision shaped every detail from concept to completion: the entrance, the bar, the lighting, the logo, the menus, the seating, the fabrics, the private rooms and the flow of the space.

Every element was chosen with intention — modern elegance and warm hospitality, an atmosphere both exclusive and inviting. More than a dining room, a complete guest experience built for dinner, cocktails, celebrations and unforgettable nights in Atlanta.

The Experience

Lo Kee was created to bring a fresh Asian fusion dining experience to Atlanta — bold food, elevated cocktails, thoughtful design, and the energy of a modern nightlife destination. Inspired by the success of Sei Less in New York City, Lo Kee brings that same sense of excitement to West Midtown while creating a personality of its own: the polish and pace of New York, paired with Atlanta's creativity, hospitality, and culture.
