The Good Luck Coconut

The vibe and service were amazing—definitely a 10/10 experience. The staff member who served us was incredibly friendly and professional. He knew every dish on the menu and gave us excellent recommendations. Instead of ordering a burger each, we decided to share a variety of entrées. Here’s what we had: • Ika Mata • Dynamite Prawns • Wagyu Sliders • Grilled Pacific Octopus • Charcoal Grilled Eggplant • Beef Scotch Skewer • Seasonal Greens Every dish was delicious, and sharing allowed us to enjoy a wider range of flavors. Highly recommend!

Fantastic service very accommodating. Enjoyed the mango soda and meals we had. Generous servings the fish & chips came out on these cool wooden type of long bowls like a canoe. The plant based burger was really good. Everything was delicious. Definitely try this restaurant when at the Wynyard quarter.

Beautiful sunny winters day people watching. Had a glass of prosecco and the Ika Mata, raw fish. Oh my, it was absolutely 💯 😍 👌. Tender, with a touch of spicy. The whipped coconut cream on the top was so very good. Definitely the best raw fish I have eaten!

I’ve been to Good Luck Coconut over eight times now, and it’s always been one of my favourite spots in the Viaduct/ Silo area. The staff have always been lovely and welcoming. they all know us and we’ve brought our two small chihuahuas each time. We always sit outside, and they’ve always been allowed to sit up on the bench with us. However, since the new front-of-house manager started, the experience has really changed. After our second visit with her there, she suddenly told us that pets are no longer allowed on the seats. Fair enough, if that’s the rule, we’ll respect it But then she said, actually, the dogs can stay on the seats this time? It just felt inconsistent and confusing. What made it worse was seeing other guests with their shoes on the seats which was apparently fine. When I asked about it, I was told the rule was because they’re “cleaning the seats more often now.” But surely seats should be cleaned regularly anyway? The double standard doesn’t make sense clean, well behaved dogs aren’t allowed, yet shoes that have been who knows where are? It’s disappointing because we genuinely loved coming here but the inconsistency and lack of logic in enforcing these “rules” has really put us off. Hopefully management can sort this out. it’s a great venue with okay food but experiences like this make loyal customers think twice about returning.

Always enjoy GLC. We often pop in on weekends for a cold beer and small plate but this time opted for an evening meal. Thoroughly recommend the flamed grilled prawns, beef skewers, octopus, prawn dumplings. In fact, we loved all the food served up. Overall ambience plus really friendly / attenuative staff added to the overall experience.

I celebrated my birthday here and although we had a minor concern, my husband and I still decided to come back and celebrate our wedding anniversary. We love the food, and the staff are friendly. It would be even better if they were a bit more attentive and approached guests more often, but overall, we truly enjoyed our time and left happy. Definitely a place we’d visit again.

It's been a long time between visits but the food is just as delicious as remembered and the atmosphere and service was brilliant. A really lovely long lunch!

Good spot for larger groups. Really nice place with very polite and welcoming staff Just the food is quite overpriced for the sizes. Had the dumplings, and they were nice (however, nothing special). The side Veggies were just tossed in sesame dressing. The sliders were very small and just overall the food won't surprise. However, it's a great spot if you are keen for some nice drinks and simple nibbles.

The good luck is for, "good luck finding them open during their posted hours" We arrived at 3:45pm and found them closed. Why? Because they close at 5pm and want to go home immediate so no one is allowed in prior. If you close at 3:30, just change your hours today you close at 3:30. This is not the spirit of tiki. This is the spirit of people who want to go home.

Pretty good tourist spot if you're walking around Auckland's waterfront area. My friends and I walked around the waterfront area and saw this bar/pub located on the waterfront with great views of the harbour. We were just looking for a spot to relax and have some drinks. So this place looked clean and nice. Service was gross and staff were attentive. This place is very touristy, but then again, this is the harbour area of Auckland where all the spots are touristy. With that being said, views and drinks/ambiance was still amazing! We ordered several rounds of cocktails, which were unique and interesting in taste. They were good and of course price was reasonable. This is a place I'd go again for happy hour and drinks.

We came to Good Luck Coconut almost based solely on the name-our dog's name is Coconut :) A plus that the menu looked interesting. The atmosphere was lovely, a nice group of after-work crowd and some tourists. The staff was super friendly and efficienct. I had the Yakitori Salad with green pepper tofu and it was fantastic! The dressing was delicious and the tofu had a great flavor I had never had before (I eat tofu nearly everywhere I go). My SO had the pork burger which he enjoyed, but he'd have liked it to be a bit spicier. He asked for some mustard and they provided their own homemade mustard which he really enjoyed. We also had the coconut soft serve which was sublime. A great place all-around and not a bad value for your money. I just wish they sold their T-shirts!

Great place to hang out on the wharf. Service was immediately warm and friendly. Drinks were lovely--this is the first tiki style bar I've been to in a long while where the drinks aren't overly sweet and are prepared with care. Just got the pound of chicken wings--$8 on the happy hour menu!--and they were yummy. I would definitely go back to check out the rest of the menu and to visit my new Kiwi friends!

A fun vibe, creative and colourful fusion small and large meals and a good location on the waterfront. Great for groups or just for a drink or two.

My partner and I decided to try these guys out. Nice spot on the Waterfront, the people were lovely, greeted well and helpful service. The decor is in theme and the restaurant well laid out with several different spaces. We shared 5 small dishes: Ika Mata (Raw Fish coconut) Crispy Chicken Karaage, Smoked Pork Ribs, Crab Sliders, and Shoe string fries. For desert we shared Coconut Parfait, Chilled Pineapple Soup, Rum, and Chocolate Custard, Koko Samoa, Mango Sorbet, and had two glasses of red wine. It was all delicious. The prices were fair and reflected the quality of the food. Definitely go back again and try a few other items (the Pot Sticker Dumplings looked amazing) and try a cocktail or two.

Nice Island, Asian and European fusion meals. The bar also have awesome cocktails. Beautiful view and spacious

Arrived before the crowd on New Years Eve. Left $341 later and not one of 5 people enjoyed the meal. This is my first review ever on Yelp but just felt I had to do this. Steak medium rare needs to be medium rare. The main comment from all was the odd combinations on the plate and lack of quantity. Without three bowls of fries (which were good) we would have all left hungry. Never again at the Good Luck Coconut.
