Let’s talk about GARRY!

Garry Cleveland has been with Lucky Cheetah since before it was a Lucky Cheetah.

One of our very first team members, Garry joined us before the opening stretch of August 2024 and has been on the floor ever since—serving, shift leading, answering questions, reading tables, keeping things moving, and generally making a pretty difficult job look suspiciously easy.

Before joining us, Garry put in serious time around Portland hospitality, from restaurants and craft spirits to bars, music venues, and all the glorious chaos that comes with taking care of people for a living.

The result? Garry knows his craft. Like, really knows it.

He’s polished without being pretentious, professional without being boring, and knowledgeable without making you feel like you’re taking a class. He can talk food, drinks, service, music, Portland, or probably whatever else you’ve got going on—and somehow make you feel like you’ve known him for years.

There are a lot of very good servers in this town. Garry is absolutely one of them.

And we’re pretty damn happy he’s on our team.

Say hi to Garry next time you’re in. He’ll probably already know what you need.

It’s always an honor to be thought of, but this one means the world to us. Thank you so much to Alexandra Hall and Condé Nast Traveler for all the love. ❤️
