Chin Chin

A Melbourne classic that’s as popular today as it was 10 years ago. We have been coming here at regular intervals over the years, and the “Feed Me” may not be “bottomless” anymore , but the quality and flavour is as good as ever. Amazing vibe as you step inside - the lighting, the atmosphere, the crowd … and the banging 80’s tunes. Service was fun and relaxed (in a good way!) The food was all delicious. The crispy barramundi salad was the standout dish - incredible mix of flavours & textures. Great wine list too. There is also high seating arranged around the bar - great for solo dining. This place is so popular that booking way in advance is absolutely essential.

This restaurant is heavily influenced by Thai cuisine and although I wouldn't call it authentic the food is still pretty decent. The food has somewhat touched or used the same spices but geared towards more western palettes. Pork Belly and the dessert were highlights of the dinner. Highly recommend coming during happy hours for the cheap cocktails! Food - 7 Service - 7 Vibe - 8 Price - $$$$

Fabulous fun and outstanding food. We wanted an early dinner and only ChinChin was open - how lucky we were! Asian fusion dishes bursting with flavours, cooked to perfection. Extensive bar menu with local breweries on tap. The barman/waiter was great- really friendly and really knew his stuff. By the time we left at 6pm it was really buzzing with great music playing at high volume.

Incredibly busy eatery in the heart of Melbourne. Asian inspired eatery with a wide range of authentic food and drinks available. We were lucky to be seated at the bar with insight into the kitchen and how talented the cooks and chefs are. Was busy everytime we went past including when we went to eat there so be prepared for a little wait. It'll be worth it! Friendly staff that try their best to hide their stresses and pressure of keeping up with demand. Always helpful and offered recommendations for meal suggestions. Quality of food, portion size and price were all spot on and well worth it. Truly a place I recommend trying!

After many years of refusing to stand in the queue I’m glad Chin Chin now takes reservations. We finally got to experience what all the fuss was about…the food is delicious! We had the $88 Feed Me which is consists of the Best of Best dishes. We loved most of it. It was a little puzzling that the cauliflower toast made the cut. But the Kingfish Sashimi really was amazing and so were the desserts. Looking forward to dining here again and trying more dishes on the menu. Oh, the downside to this place is the music is blast way too loud and it’s impossible to have a conversation at the table. Maybe it’s intentional as they expect diners to be out in 1.5 hours.

Had the $88 feed me menu, Flavors were really nice on most dishes but there were a few negatives, 3 out of the 9 dishes were dissapointing, the tuna salad, a dish with a piece of fruit and salad (im guessing which was to freshen your pallet which i found to be a waste) and cauliflower toast, in addition the cauliflower toast was partially burnt, the fish in the fish curry was a bit tough and skin wasn't trimmed properly, they bought out a couple of extra dishes because we were still a bit hungry (which i appreciated) but unfortunatly not as much care was taken and the flavors were unbalanced.. i expected a bit more attention to detail considering the price you pay. Staff were friendly and service was good.
