A vibrant new neon-lit restaurant and bar has opened in Auckland. Lucky 8 promises a unique social dining experience brought to you by the masterminds behind ever-popular Mr Hao.
Located at Ponsonby Road, the hidden bar feels more like a loft and features a speakeasy-like doorway followed by a black staircase formed by black cats, as well as hanging lanterns, red leather seating, wooden tables and other Asian touches, making it the perfect cosy late-night hangout.
Expect a scrumptious range of Asian-inspired tapas dishes and shared platters. Each dish will set you back $8 and they are designed for sharing paired with beer, wines and cocktails.
Send your tastebuds on a frenzy by indulging on items such as the crunchy Golden Shrimp with mayo, Vermicelli and Shredded Turnip Salad, Mushroom Fries, flavourful pan-fried Dumplings, Crayfish and plenty more. Additionally, those who enjoy Mr Hao will be excited to see their famed Hao’s Chili Popcorn Chicken on the menu.
Finally, compliment your Asian tapas feast by ordering a refreshing cocktail for $8. With a variety of options…you’ll be spoilt for choice. Think Viet Dragon with vodka and coffee liquor or else Tokyo Mojito consisting of sake, sencha, mint, lime juice and soda, to name a few.
Certainly, Lucky 8 in Auckland is an excellent place for dates, catching up with a group of six friends or just chilling out late into the night. For bookings, visit the Lucky 8 website.
