Review Ghost Street - Auckland Central

vy

Normally not a huge fan of fusion Asian cuisine. But I have to admit, this place changed my mind and perception. The flavours are similar to Sichuan cuisines. The dishes incorporated the traditional Chinese tasted with a hint of creativity which blended quite well. The service was superb. The waiter was super attentive, humorous and looked after our group really well.

Best place for a taste of authentic Chinese cuisine. Excellent service from host, waiter to chefs. Fast and also in for a cheeky lil banter/comment. The price is worth the food and vibe of the restaurant top it off toilets are clean. We were full by the 3rd plate so come empty and the drinks will knock you out if you’re not careful. Definitely paying your worth and very excited to bring friends and family to this gem.

I cannot recommend Ghost Street highly enough. A member of our group suggested this restaurant as she had been before - and it did not disappoint. I am usually not the biggest fan of seafood but every item from the banquet option was fantastic! The snapper in spicy sauce in particular was phenomenal.

Service, amazing. Food, incredible. Drinks, insane. This should be an Auckland institution. The service and atmosphere is incredible. It gets a tad loud the later in the evening you go but that's purely because of the underground nature. The food was incredible. Standouts were the scallop wonton, stir fried eye fillet and fried rice. This place is all about strong punchy flavours so be prepared. All in all, a great experience.

Went here for Restaurant Month and was so glad I did! Highlights were definitely the lamb ribs, the biang biang pulled noodles and the prawn & sesame toast. Atmosphere was cute for date night with dim lighting with a candle lit table. Service was amazing - would come back!!

If you love chilli and spice this is the place for you. Lovely tasty food, excellent friendly staff. Quick turnaround even when busy. Scallops so delicious as are the margaritas!

We went there for dinner on December 13th 2022. The foods are great. They have options for people with dietary restrictions, such as vegetarian and gluten-free. The servings are good for two people. Their main dishes can serve up to 3 people, depending on your appetite. We also love the ambiance. It was like a medieval-styled restaurant with slightly dimmed lighting. The service is amazing. However, their foods are a bit pricey for the serving. We spent $170 dollars for 5 meals and 3 non-alcoholic drinks. They also don't have wheelchair access, and the way to the restaurant is a bit hidden. Please make sure you check all the signs to avoid getting lost. Overall experience was great and I loved it.

The food was delicious. Everything seemed perfect, however, I didn't feel comfortable when I saw the kitchen staff eating in the kitchen when they prepared our food. Not sure what standard is in New Zealand, but I think the staff should eat in the staff room during their break time.

Overall a 4 star. Food is ok for its price but great vibe and service. We got the prawn toasts, stir fried chicken thighs, fried rice, cha sui pork, biang biang noodles and two desserts. The mango dessert was a hi-light for me.

Love this place. Such a cool hidden gem. It's a bit hot (temperature wise), but the food is delicious. There were 7 of us, and each of us ordered 2 or 3 things on the menu and shared everything. It gave us a chance to sample multiple items on the menu. The food is hot, so if you don't like hot order it mild.

Our family had the best dinner experience here 2 weeks ago while visiting Auckland. The staffs are incredibly friendly and so pleasant to talk to. The food was so good. So much care and attention went into each dish. I would highly recommend trying to eat here when in Auckland!

Amazing atmosphere , delicious food and top notch service. Set in the lower level , we didn't even know his restaurant existed. Staff are friendly and ensure you are enjoying your meals throughout the night. Best dishes which one must try are the Chinese pickled veges with wonton skins, Lab skewers and the scrumptious dry fired green beans. Lychee martini was nice and refreshing with this spicy meal and finishing off with the gorgeous Purple kumra tiramisu .. Cant wait to come back to try more dishes.

Good service & vibes. The cocktails weren't great, could do with more sour and sweet options. The spicy Snapper is coated in a chili oil that left a lingering taste after eating that we didn't like, so we didn't finish it. Felt a small bit overpriced - $206 for 5 of the sharing dishes and 4 drinks (3 alcoholic). We much prefer Cafe Hanoi, which is probably our favourite CBD restaurant and recommend instead.

The service was great - very friendly, attentive and helpful. The food is wonderful and tasty beyond expectation. If you’re looking to treat yourself I would highly recommend this place. They have a unique atmosphere that is charming and comfortable. Please go here!
