seoul night

our favourite go-to dinner spot. friendly staff, good service and good vibes. the food is never a let down and comes out rather fast. highly recommend. pictured: rosemary fried chicken, kumara pizza and rice cake skewers with deep fried egg - $65 for 2 people

unique entrance in the shape of a vending machine. the inside vibe was great - filled with youth and fun! the food was alright - slightly expensive but expected at a korean bar in auckland. it was great that the toilets were equipped with makeup tools for the ladies! overall good experience and would return :)

the food here is amazing and the staff are super friendly. great music too. such a hidden gem!

seoul night✨ a hidden gem in fort lane. their entrance can be a little tricky to find😅 great vibes, loved the neon signs, and mural on korean drinking culture. a great place for a night out with casual drinking and authentic korean bites 🍗🍻 other than the soju + beer mix suggested on the wall, it was also tasty mixing their sodas with fruit sojus, we tried 🥛milk soda + peach soju and it tasted delicious!
one dish i highly recommend getting @seoulnightnz is their 🍡🍡rice cake skewers + deep fried eggs🥚, this street food snack combo is the bomb 💥
💲price $30/person (also on @gifticon_official for discounted prices)

went here with a bunch of friends for a birthday, their service was really good. they were really sweet and fast. every dish we ordered was of good quantity and tasted really good! would definitely go back here.

recommend the rosemary fried chicken, it’s spicy and yummy, the lotus roots and rice cakes in this dish are nice as well.

chicken is super fresh and juicy. even you eat it on the next day it is still fresh. for myself, i prefer the original one. the hot one is too spicy that let my stomach feels uncomfortable. the only thing that a little bit sad is it is too expensive. 10 pieces for $40. and the store cut 1 thigh to 2 pieces

food was super delicious! we ordered rosemary chicken, original fried chicken, steak-chop, fish cake soup and something else i cant exactly recall. every single dish stood out on its own. rate them 10/10 for taste, texture, presentation and portion. each person of our group paid 18 bucks only and felt content. it was the best dining experience so far out of all korean restaurants in auckland. the waiters and waitresses who served us were also sincere and considerate. highly recommend!

💸 cash me outside, how about that

literally hidden away on fort street behind a vending machine door is seoul night 🇰🇷🌃 love the ambience and the music here. the services were very good and the staff was very attentive and helpful 💁🏻‍♀️we had ordered creamy carbonara rice cake, kimchi arancini, rice cake skewers. they were all delicious and we couldn't finish off the creamy carbonara rice cake since the portion was massive and became too creamy and cheesy for us towards the end 🧀 but who doesn't like it when you have enough for leftovers the next day 🥡🤭 can't wait to come back, been constantly craving for their rice cake skewers 🤤🤦🏻‍♀️
this is an awesome place for a group of friends to eat and drink since it has a range of food and a variety of different drinks to choose from.
for all my ladies out there the ladies bathrooms here are pimped out with accessories and perfume 🏵️🌸

celebrated my friend's birthday yesterday at seoul night and it was good. the taste and presentation of the food was good. the atmosphere was good if you're there to get lit. i don't remember the name of the drink we had but the lemon one was really good. service was really good and staff were very polite.

this is a staple place to go with a bunch of friends because of their sharing portion sizes and environment. must-trys here are the rosemary or original fried chicken! we also had other dishes such as the kumara pizza which was soft, pillow-y and full of flavour, the spicy rice cakes and chicken and cheese which are all to die for. the staff are so attentive and helpful with ordering, refilling water etc. only con is that it's always a bit hot and the ambient lighting (although is moody and aesthetic), it gets hard on the eyes.

food - 5/5
ambience - 4/5
service - 5/5

we had the spicy chicken and melted mozzarella cheese⁣⁣. the spicy chicken itself is good but the mozzarella cheese tasted a bit weird and has a slightly almost chalky texture. it tasted like cheap supermarket bought mozzarella cheese. ⁣

we also got the original korean fried chicken. the chicken was fried and seasoned well, golden brown and crispy on the outside. by itself it was your usual plain fried chicken which is good but what made it stand out was the garlic, soya sauce and honey dip on the side along with the pickled radish. the sweet plum sauce tasted a bit weird to me.

the last dish was the ramyun, we got it because my girlfriend said she wanted something soupy and i read one of the reviews here that said the ramyun was not the regular ramyun but the restaurant did something to it that made it taste really good and way better than regular ramyun. boy, that review couldn't be more off point. it was just regular ramyun with an egg and spring onions on top. probably the most expensive ramyun i've ever eaten at $9. we joked that the person who wrote the review must be high or drunk or something to think that the ramyun was way better than regular ramyun.
⁣
service was top notch even if it was busy. the waiter came and replaced the water jugs frequently, the food came out quick and the waiters were friendly and helpful.⁣

my korean friend took me their for some dinner with soju(i love it!).
staff was kind, the mood of the restaurant was ok..price was...👀⁉️
but most of all food was horrible.
the bulgogi pizza-do some more work. visual of the food..looked like vomited food of shrek.
korean freid chicken-2/5 (too soggy, too greasy)

what!? how can a simple ramyun taste so good. was expecting regular nong shim instant noodles but these guys have managed to make instant noodles taste so good. the flavour was next level. and dont get me started on the rosemary fried chicken. perfect seasoning and presented so well with the deep fried lotus root and rice cakes. well worth the 30 bucks. would definitely pop back during another night out.

i have been to this place three times now, and each time was thoroughly enjoyable. the staff are friendly, the environment is dim and moody (not the best for photos but sets the ambience well). the food is generally well-portioned and tastes great.

i would recommend the fried chicken, the spicy rice cake, the crispy pork belly, and the rice cake side.
drinks wise, the soju is priced alright at $16 a bottle. the jugs are also reasonably priced but very, very sweet and not with a lot of alcohol in them. of the jugs, i would recommend the lemon crush as it tastes like lemonade.

overall, would definitely recommend this place for a group booking as the dishes are sharing portions. also make sure everyone can enjoy spicy food as some of the dishes are relatively spicy (but this is normal for many korean dishes).

p.s. the bathrooms are very nice and well-stocked with amenities. have also heard the mens bathroom has a touch-screen mirror. (just a nice touch)
