"If you suspect that your date is a fun person (or need a foolproof way to find out), New Luck Toy is the place to go. This bar is full of paper lanterns, golden cat ornaments, pinball machines, alcoholic slushies, and delicious Chinese food. Toast with frozen prickly pear margaritas and an order of General Tso’s chicken before tearing up the skee-ball court. If your date doesn’t seem to be delighted by all of this, there’s a chance they are actually a cyborg." - aimee rizzo
"New Luck Toy is on this list for three reasons. First, the cocktails here (frozen, on-tap, or otherwise) are great. Second, you can order tasty Chinese dishes like shrimp and pork dumplings, spare ribs, and a version of General Tso’s chicken to remember. Third, you can play skee-ball or sing karaoke." - aimee rizzo
"If you’re with a group that enjoys things like spiked slushies, dumplings, and being in a good mood, keep New Luck Toy in mind. It’s a lively West Seattle bar that serves Chinese dishes like spare ribs dunked in sticky five-spice sauce and honey pecan prawns. And music is played at the perfect volume for birthdays—loud enough for you to tune in and out of conversations based on how interesting they sound. " - aimee rizzo, kayla sager riley

"Open until 2am Wednesday-Saturday You could eat that takeout that’s been in your fridge so long it should pay rent, or you could go to New Luck Toy for great Chinese food in an over-the-top and completely wacky environment. Come with a group of friends and get some platters of shrimp and pork fat dumplings, General Tso’s chicken, and salt-and-pepper spare ribs with sticky five-spice dip. Skeeball is optional, but very much encouraged." - aimee rizzo, kayla sager riley
