It was my wife’s birthday, and we decided to dine at Casa Chino. My friend, who works there, had been inviting me for a while she was really proud of the food they make. So, we finally gave it a go. Casa Chino is an Asian-Latin fusion restaurant, just a short tram ride from the CBD. As soon as we sat down, the vibe felt familiar and homey. The staff were super friendly and accommodating. For starters, we ordered the lamb riblets wow. The lamb was incredibly succulent and tender, glazed with a honey soy sauce that was pure umami heaven. I loved that the honey wasn’t overpowering; it blended perfectly with the salty richness of the soy. There was a hint of cumin and the freshness of mint that kept it from feeling heavy on the palate. The lamb was crispy, the fat just melted in your mouth We also got the chicken wings and holy shit, they were amazing. Perfectly crunchy, juicy, and served with a chipotle and black vinegar dressing. It was so good I literally wanted to choke on the chicken bones fuck me Next, the crab and prawn toast. Honestly, we were skeptical at first because we’ve been traumatized before by funky crab flavors here in Melbourne. But KING INA this became one of our top three favorite toasts ever. It’s hard to explain, but it reminded me of Japanese cuisine, with clean seafood flavors and an umami bomb that brought to mind a really good takoyaki but different. You just need to try it. We also had the prawn and chive dumplings. They were good, though I once had a better one in Hong Kong back in 2013 can’t remember where exactly, just the flavor, haha. We ordered the masterstock pork belly too so clean and fresh, the pork just melted in your mouth. As in, yawa basta. The chaufa (Peruvian-Chinese fried rice) was another hit easily in my top 5 favorite fried rices in Melbourne. And of course, whenever we eat out, we always try to order one veggie dish. We picked the steamed Asian greens and god damn, they were so good, I’m still craving them. We have to go back soon. 5/5. Bye TF
Absolutely delicious food! We came on Saturday for a bridal shower. My mum and I had the sharing menu for $43 per person. The menu doesn’t really allude to vegan options, but the service does. They will turn either of the sharing menus or dishes into a vegan friendly version. Well not only was the food packed with flavour, the portions and amount plates of food was well and truly worth the $43. We couldn’t believe how much food there was. I particularly loved the cucumber salad. I took a photo of all the dishes but forgot to picture the fried rice style plate. There’s a lot of food here, and we enjoyed every bite. If you are looking for Something different I would highly recommend Casa Chino, not only for the food but the beautiful atmosphere inside and out in the back garden part. The only thing that was difficult is the location, we had my grandmother and there wasn’t really anywhere safe to pull up and let her out close to the venue.
The ambience of the restaurant is very moody and cozy with Chinese inspired decor which is really nice. The service was bit lukewarm, host was friendly, but the servers took like 5-10 minutes before any menus were provided. Ordered the dragon fruit/ican coke spider mocktails, lamb riblets, fries, sweet sour chicken and soy garlic tofu which were all pretty good!
Pleasant ambiance, quality service, and amazing, delicious food. Cheers to the staff and chef for creating such a welcoming and satisfying experience. Will definitely be back! ♡
Organised a casual catch up with friends as we had heard good things about Casa Chino - and let me tell you, it did not disappoint! Everything was delicious and the fusion of cuisines was expertly done. Highly recommend the Pisco’s, Ceviche, Osyers, Tuna Saku and Prawn Spring Roll. Attention to detail from the waitstaff along with their overall politeness and hospitality was wonderfull. Fit out is gorgeous. We’ll be back!
