LEWISTON — The Canton Wok on Lisbon Street has been closed after its owner was taken into federal custody earlier in the month.

According to federal records, Xing Feng Dong, 46, was being held at the Cumberland County Jail in Portland in the custody of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement.

Jail records indicate that Dong, listed as a native of the People’s Republic of China, was taken into custody May 6.

The arresting agency was listed as the U.S. Immigration & Naturalization Service, although no further information about Dong’s immigration status was listed.

Dong was being held without bail in a federal pod at the Portland jailhouse.

City health inspection records reveal that Dong operated Canton Wok under the corporate name Dongs Garden Inc. The restaurant has been operating at its 920 Lisbon St. location for nearly two decades.

Some online restaurant review websites listed Canton Wok as closed. At least one has the business listed as “permanently closed.”

At the Lisbon Street restaurant, a simple “closed” sign hung in the window at the main entrance. There were no employees there and no further clues as to whether the business planned to reopen.

The last post made on the Canton Wok Facebook page was on May 1, announcing Mother’s Day specials.

Lewiston police said they were not notified about the arrest of Dong, either before or after he was taken into custody.

Reached for comment, Lewiston Mayor Carl Sheline said he was still trying to find specific information about the matter late Wednesday afternoon. He was searching for Dong’s local family members in attempts to learn more about the situation.
