LUCKY RESTAURANT & BAR

Description

A family-run seafood spot that punches well above its modest appearance. The grilled fish on banana leaf and scallops are the obvious moves here, but the bánh xèo (Vietnamese sizzling pancake) and homemade spring rolls hold their own. Coconut smoothies are apparently non-negotiable.

The family running this place is the real draw alongside the food. The owner has a habit of saying yes to unusual requests, which is rarer than it should be. They’ve been in the trade long enough that newly opened doesn’t mean figuring things out on your feet.

Portions are generous and prices are clearly not causing anyone to hesitate, given how many reviewers end up eating here multiple times a week. Good English spoken, which helps if you want to work through the menu properly.

Highlights

Order the bánh xèo with shrimp and follow it with a coconut smoothie - reviewers who skipped either one went back specifically to fix that mistake.
