twelve 트웰브

good customer service, cool dark atmosphere, tasty delicious korean food! i don’t normally eat a lot ofspicyfood so can barely handle the mildspicyflavour. my favourite dishes are the sweet and sour chicken wings, pizza with honey, beef tartare with sashimi. this place is great for sharing multiple dishes with a group of friends. would come back again.

i really love their seafoodspicysoup, it has so many flavours and its all i crave all day !! i highly recommend it & theirspicysweet chicken. and rice is so good. i recommend going in a big group and sharing & splitting the bill as its big portioned:)

twelve is always full especially on friday nights.

we came here to drink their yogurt soju. this concoction is basically soju mixed with yakult and ice. that’s right, the small little bottles all the asian kids used to have in primary. it tastes exactly like yakult with a faint hint of soju that doesn’t linger.
it’s perfect for people who don’t like the taste of alcohol. $18 for 1 litre which is not too bad either.

we also ordered aspicychicken dish with cheese fondue. i never knew how well these two go together until tonight.

overall the atmosphere is great to meet with a bunch of friends, have some drinks and share lots of food.

after three sharing dishes, 2 beers, 2 or 3 soft drinks, and maybe 4/5 litres of yogurt soju it came down to $23 per person split between 8 people.

twelve was the restaurant my partner picked for his birthday dinner this year. the restaurant is based in auckland cbd. we went on a friday night so it was rather busy. there was a 10-15 minute wait but because we had our 9 month old daughter with us, the waiter had us seated promptly before other groups instead of waiting outside in the cold. i really appreciated the gesture. the customer service was impeccable! i can’t even begin to explain how considerate and lovely the service we received that night. the restaurant didn’t have a high chair so one of the staff (i’m assuming the duty manager) went and got an office chair with arms for our daughter to sit on. they showed so much concern and even suggested foods they deemed suitable for our daughter to eat. it isn’t a family restaurant but as a mother, i appreciated the gestures they made that night. they truly went above and beyond. the ambience of the place was modern, a bit dark and dimly lit so it gave a bar/restaurant feel. it was also rather loud so be prepared to talk a few octaves higher😅. the spacing of tables were enough for me to manoeuvre my daughters pram without disturbing diners and asking them to move their chairs. twelve is a bit pricey so be prepared to spend a bit of money. we ordered a variety of dishes. the sashimi was delicious but you can never get fresh salmon sashimi wrong! the squid was a bit average, nothing overly fancy or delicious. the pork belly was delicious but i was expecting a bit more spiciness to it. the highlight of the dishes was the seafood hotpot. the broth was flavourful and had good amount of seafood to it. i find most seafood hotpots tend to skimp out on mussels and crabs but twelve had a good variety of seafood in their hot pot and noodles added to the pot were a nice touch. all in all, i would recommend❤️

twleve another great korean joint that really knows how to handle their chicken. unlike other places in cbd, twelve actually gives significantly larger portion sizes and better flavours too tbh.spicychicken was damn amazing and was enough for 3 people. pizza surprisingly great too.
will definitely come here again. it's great for large groups. definitely bit pricier than usual. soju costed around $17 which i thought was crazy but still bought it anyway hahaha. service is avg dont expect anything amazing.

a very loud place late at night full of asian(myself asian)s smoking outdoors but i remember thespicychicken wings being really good and it makes you feel alive. good place to drink as well

so far the best korean bar i’ve been to. had a booking for a large (15-20 people) group on a saturday night and the venue was a perfect option. the venue is very large and has heaps of space so really good for bigger groups.

we ordered a few different sharing platters of fried chicken,spicycooked chicken, corn cheese and fried tofu. all the food was really generous portion sizings and could easily be shared between 3-5people. my favourite was thespicychicken (stirfried) which was very flavoursome and spicy.

the service was really polite and prompt, dealt with us being a really loud group of annoying young people which was really nice.

would definitely recommend to everyone, and looking forward to coming back.

we came by for dinner and grabbed a few items to share. we ordered the yakult soju and it was served with fried lotus roots. the bburinkle sunsal chicken was amazing. the fried chicken had a really tasty seasoning over it. it was served with a dipping sauce but definitely didn't need it. i also quite liked the dumpling and cheese corn but would have been easier to eat if the cheese was mixed in with the corn. the mu bossam (pork belly) was also quite nice, especially with thespicysalad. the snowing chicken was ok and very cheesy. i would have like to try their ddukboki but we had people who didn't likespicyfoods.

portions are fairly large so quite good for groups. the dining area was quite big. really nice fried chicken and the menu has quite a few options so return visits are a must.

nice night to spend in the perfect place.. we are celebrating one of friend farewell with dinner and drink. ordered a lot of food from fried chicken, fish roe soup,spicypork belly, steamed egg, takowasabi and many more but the most important we have yoghurt soju to complete the night

haven’t been here for a while, the food portion has increased and has become tastier. the food is sweet in general. we ordered the bul bossam (slow pulled pork belly in spicy) and asked for medium hot, and it came out almost extremely hot. it was nice though next time we’ll order it as mild. we ordered a side of tuna mayo rice (sweet and creamy) and a small udon, and they went really well with thespicypork belly. we also ordered the soy glazed pork belly and it was too much food, we couldn’t finish half of it.
service has definitely improved, very friendly and helpful staff. only one or two of the bathrooms were working as it looked like the end bathrooms were flooding.

like a korean restaurant which is awesome. the korean style bbq chicken was one of the best. another dish was like raw or slightly steamed beef? i did not eat much raw food so could not provide a review. atomosphere was relaxing. would go back again next time! perfect place for beer and koreanspicychicken!

book in advance, super busy on saturday night even thought we got there at 9pm. they open late ‘til 3am. we ordered sin jjampong (seafood soup), sesame chicken and bossam and 3 bowl of rice, food price all around $33 and share portion for 5 people, total $100. food came quite fast. service standard. highlight was the seafood soup, broth tasty. wish it would have come with bigger portion. definitely come back for theirspicysoup dishes. fried chicken ok. not a fan of their bossam, pork abit dry and not moist and succulent.

twelve is a popular korean restaurant and bar which entertains young people on weekends on a regular basis. i used to come here frequently and it’s always packed! they serve all your favourite soju flavours, mine being green grape.

other than soju, they also serve a variety of dishes that suit drinking such as fried chicken, sharing style soups, fried snacks and the bestspicypork belly!

the service is quite fast and friendly, food is usually spicy.

friendly staff and delicious food. the best dish is thespicyfried chicken and fondue. staff is always friendly and welcoming. ambience is always perfect for friday after work meals. 👌

got the cheesyspicypork belly it taste good but the pork was a bit hard for my personal liking but the flavours were very good andspicyif your into that!
also got the salmon rice bowl, that taste really good!
will definitely come back and try the other dishes
