The Good Luck Coconut

Had my daughter's 18th birthday celebration here. Everything was excellent. The service, staff and food just superb. This is a great spot for dinner and small events. Thank you so much for making my daughter's night so special GLC!

Had my graduation lunch celebration here with family. We had about 15 of us. The staff were amazing and the food was excellent. We sat outside, lovely seating area. Will be returning! Thank you!

Bought some cocktails from here. The Mai Tai was nice and you can taste the alcohol, which is good. The place has a cool island vibe and the staff were friendly. It’s a good spot to relax and enjoy a drink. I also bought a Piranha 29, but it just tasted like fruit.

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!

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!

Came for an end of year work team lunch celebration. There were 10 of us, it wasn’t busy. One person ordered tofu, came out with chicken, not tofu, one person ordered gluten free fish and chips, multiple fish and chips came out at the same time and they all looked the same as the other fish and chips, queried if one was gluten free to be told by the server that she didn’t understand because she was French so asked someone else who disappeared to find out and came back and said it was gluten free, the batter was most certainly not gluten free, quite dangerous for anyone who may have more serious food allergies. The gluten free fish and chips was not noted any differently to any of the other regular fish and chips on the paper that the order was written on. Big training issue here, if you’re not sure about people’s orders read them all out after taking everyone’s to double check that they are correct, if not perfect opportunity to get it right. Another in our party ordered a burger but it didn’t come out as it was missed on the docket so they had to wait whilst everyone else ate. The staff didn’t offer anything for the mistake, I asked the staff if the person without food could have a free drink, waitress came back and said it would only be 15 minutes and didn’t see what the issue was, was quite a hostile conversation, the issue being this person was sat there without their food for 20 minutes whilst everyone else was eating, I understand people make mistakes, that’s fine, but own up and offer something by way of a gesture to show you care about the guests comfort as it disrupted the experience for everyone. We hadn’t complained that they brought out chicken instead of tofu in one of the dishes. Then whilst people were still eating they were clearing plates away, including side plates of the person eating which had the knife and fork on it. Staff didn’t ask if we would like another round of drinks with our meal, by which time most of us had finished our drinks, but they waited until we had finished our meal to see if we wanted another drink (by this point we needed a drink elsewhere to recover from the sad experience). It wasn’t busy so they could have asked and they could have come over whilst we were eating to see if everything was okay with our meals but I suspected they didn’t because they likely knew it wasn’t, there was just no lighthearted conversation from waitstaff at all, all very transactional. Meanwhile whilst this is happening what I presume was the manager on duty was sat a few meters away from us on their laptop, I presume this was the case because the member of staff had to check with laptop man if was okay to give the person without a meal a free drink, you’d think this would be an opportunity for the manager to come over and see if everything was okay. But no, the only interaction we had was at the end, when it came to payment laptop man made an appearance, sending a clear message they didn’t care much about the experience we had and just wanted our money, a lot of it and was not worth the cost. Really sad experience, I get it hospitality industry is struggling but this is seriously poor and what I hoped for a lovely end of year celebration wasn’t the case. Also the wine servings considering $19 for a “glass” of wine are really quite small.

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.
