Potluck Club
Potluck Club is a Cantonese-American restaurant located in the bustling cross-section of Chinatown, the Lower East Side, and Nolita. The menu and restaurant design draw inspiration from the experience of growing up in Chinatown.
As children of immigrants themselves, the Potluck Club team knows that community is built on courage, sacrifice, and a belief in building a better future for everyone. They grew up watching their families work tirelessly to create something meaningful from very little. They carry their stories with them every day, in the food they cook, the tables they set, and the space they hold for their community. To support immigrants is to honor where they came from, to protect the culture that shaped them, and to make sure the doors stay open for the next generation to gather, thrive, and belong.
