Hand-carved poker tables, plush seating, and bamboo-inspired accents create an intimate oriental card lounge for focused play and relaxed conversation.

Designed for offline poker conversations

The card lounge envelopes guests in warm ivory light, textured timber, and soft textiles. Each section of the room has been tuned for acoustic calm, making every shuffle, chip stack, and table read feel precise and unhurried.

Lantern clusters float above bespoke poker tables, while subtle bamboo lines and muted cinnabar accents echo the restaurant’s pan-Asian identity. Guests can move easily between fusion dining and the poker room, creating a seamless evening of flavour and friendly Texas Hold'em.

Offline focus

All play is live and in-person, centred on physical cards, ceramic chips, and face-to-face strategy.

Lounge privacy

Soft partitions and curated seating zones provide privacy without losing the shared salon energy.

Bespoke Poker Tables & Ceramic Chips

Crafted surfaces and signature chip rituals

Every detail of the oriental card lounge is tuned for the tactile pleasure of offline poker—from the curve of the timber rail to the satisfying weight of each ceramic chip.

Bespoke poker tables

Polished timber, velvet insets, and generous spacing for extended card sessions.

Each table in Lantern & Luck’s poker room is carved from warm-toned timber, finished to a gentle sheen that echoes the glow of the lanterns above. Rounded card edges soften the silhouette, while deep velvet insets cradle the deck and chips.

Legroom, elbow spacing, and sight lines are carefully considered so that every guest can follow the rhythm of Texas Hold'em without distraction. Integrated cup rests and discreet side ledges keep the playing surface precise and uncluttered.

  • Table style Hand-carved oval and round formats
  • Surface Velvet insets for controlled card movement
  • Experience Perfect for long-form chip strategy sessions

Ceramic chip showcase

Custom inlays and a refined tactile profile for every hand dealt.

Our ceramic chips are crafted to embody Lantern & Luck’s identity. Subtle oriental motifs sit within the inlays, echoing bamboo lines and lantern silhouettes. Their weight, sound, and texture are tuned for stacking, riffling, and clean chip movements along the felt.

In the offline poker salon, these ceramic chips are more than markers; they are the sculpted language of the table—helping guests focus on reading posture, tempo, and intent in every Texas Hold'em round.
