A full-sensory Lunar New Year experience
From Feb. 1 through Feb. 28, the Scottsdale location transforms into a full-sensory Lunar New Year destination, complete with festive décor, a limited-time menu designed for sharing, and standout moments like a one-night Rémy Martin cocktail dinner and two high-energy lion dance performances.
“Our goal is to make Lunar New Year feel like a real celebration, not just a date on the calendar,” says John Banquil, owner of Ling & Louie’s. “You’ve got the whole month to come in, bring your favorite people, try the special menu, and soak up the energy. We’re decorating the restaurant, pouring fun cocktails and making it feel festive every night you walk in.”

What’s happening this February
Throughout the month, Ling & Louie’s invites guests to turn everyday dinners into occasions. Symbolic dishes, bright red accents and a lively atmosphere build momentum as February unfolds, blending tradition with the restaurant’s signature modern flair.
Highlights include:
- Festive atmosphere (Feb. 1–28): A fully decorated space inspired by Lunar New Year, perfect for high-energy group celebrations.
- Lunar New Year specials (Feb. 1–28): Limited-time dishes and crafted cocktails designed to welcome good luck, prosperity and happiness.
- Lucky Red Envelope rewards (Feb. 1–28): Wokstar Rewards members who check in receive a Lucky Red Envelope in the app with an $8-off offer.
- Lunar New Year Cocktail Dinner (Feb. 19): A one-night-only pairing dinner with Rémy Martin, featuring a three-course menu and custom cocktails by guest mixologist Jason Asher of Juniper & Jigger Hospitality Co..
- Lion dance performances: At 7 p.m. on Feb. 20 and again on Feb. 27, Golden Phoenix Lion Dance fills the room with drums, movement and good-fortune energy.

“I’d encourage locals to book the Lunar New Year Cocktail Dinner with Rémy Martin,” Banquil says. “Jason Asher is a standout talent, and he’s creating custom cocktails designed to complement each course. It’s a one-night-only experience and an exciting way to celebrate Lunar New Year.”
