Not a restaurant.
A pre-club.
Push open the dark door and you're somewhere else — a Saigon night market grown wild with neon, a glowing tiger over the bar, the DJ warming up.
Vietnamese small plates, made to share — order three or four each. That's how the jungle eats.

Read all 546 reviews on Google ↗First time dining here last night and I was pleasantly surprised. Same owners as Lucky 8 so I was expecting the same vibe and it gave just that! 🤩 Staff were amazing, always making sure our table was cleared. Food is made for sharing and drinks 🍹🍸 were delicious. Our fave was the mango Thai coconut cocktail. Music 🎶 was good and we were still able to hear each other.
Read on Google ↗A fun night out with friends gathering at Jungle 8! Great atmosphere and decor. Food is cheap and cheerful comes in small tapa styled portion. Suitable for sharing different dishes. Drinks are reasonable price.
Read on Google ↗Staff and atmosphere was really cool. We had a friend with an onion allergy and the staff were so helpful, sweet and accommodating. There was a great variety in food but it varied in quality. Some menu items were really good like the crispy eggplant, sashimi & tacos but some dishes were a little lacking e.g. the spicy chicken was a bit dry and had no sauce. The drinks were amazing though.
Read on Google ↗Really good vegan options here. You can tell they actually put effort into the flavours instead of just removing meat from dishes and calling it vegan. Everything we had was delicious, especially a couple of the smaller sharing plates. Cocktails were great too and the atmosphere at night is really cool when the place gets busy. Definitely coming back.

Read on Google ↗Very busy on a Friday night as expected however, service and delivery was a tad slow at times. The food was very tasty. The music got turned up around 8.30pm however, it was almost too loud as it was difficult to talk to our peers right next to us. Affordable drinks and dishes from as cheap as $8.

Read on Google ↗⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ GREAT PRICES WITH GOOD SERVICE. AWESOME ATMOSPHERE.
Read on Google ↗Had a very nice buffet dinner on Sunday. Pho is very yummy, and we are obsessed with the coconut mussels and good selection of seafood. Cocktails are good for the price, ranging from $8.88 to less than $15. Just make sure you double check the bill if you pay for the drinks separately via the app/QR code, it has surcharge fee if paying via apple pay and sometimes still show up on your bill again. Anyway the host and other waiters were very friendly, attentive and helpful so no complaints at all.
