Luk Fu joins a lineup that will include local favorites Lorenzo and Sons Pizza, Sang Kee Noodle Bar & Kitchen and Termini Brothers Bakery, along with a pair of restaurants from national award-winning chef and television personality Guy Fieri, who will open Fieri’s Taco and Burger Joints, which will operate separately inside the casino. “We want Luk Fu to be a place for friends and family to gather and enjoy the wonderful culinary offerings Chef Wu has created, while also being in the heart of one the most exciting neighborhoods in the city.”

“The Asian community in Philadelphia has been tremendously supportive of our project from the very beginning, so we are thrilled to introduce a restaurant concept that is reflective of the diversity of this community,” said Joe Billhimer, executive vice president of Cordish Gaming Group. These thousands of chopsticks create screens between booths, while tea crates were converted into dining stools. Popular in Asian cultures, screens are used to define semi-private dining experiences.

The design centerpiece is a custom screen handmade out of more than 250,000 individual chopsticks. The 132-seat restaurant is surrounded by dynamic colors in the form of graffiti-style murals and urban art, with an accent of neon splashes, giving the establishment a jolt of energy. Luk Fu will be located by the High Limit Tables Room on the casino floor once doors officially open.
