Food and service was honestly great! The food was super flavourful and came out all so quickly without much of a wait time. The hospitality was great as well with the servers being attentive all the time. Only feedback on the main dishes were they were a tad salty but other than that everything was amazing! Place was also super vibey with the neon lights. Will come back with a bigger group next time for sure 🙂

The food, the vibe, the venue all great. But the stand out was our waiter Charlie who was nothing but exceptional.We didn’t want to look at the menu we just told him to feed 4 of us. These days people can’t do that easily. Charlie understood the menu, got to know us casually and confidently decided on our dinner. He knew the menu, and could talk to it so well. His choices were spot on.This young man will do great in whatever he does, his enthusiasm and good energy made our dinner experience very memorable. He even chose our birthday shots for us and he did great, it wasn’t just tequila, it was a thought out digestive, flavourful shot.Thanks Chiki Chan, and thank you Charlie!

We recently hosted our engagement dinner at Chiki Chan with a semi-private booking, and the whole experience was seamless from start to finish.Planning the event was really easy, and a big thank you to Helen, Mariah, and the team who were fantastic to deal with throughout. On the night, everything ran smoothly, the team was attentive without being overbearing, and the service genuinely stood out.A special touch we really appreciated was the customised “feed me” menu they created based on our selections. It made the night feel a bit more personal and highlighted our special occasion.Thanks again to Helen, Mariah and the team for making our engagement dinner such a great experience!

Damn that's good. Only thing I could recommend is if the servers told us what was being served! We did the feed me option and sometimes we weren't sure! Though it was all amazing!

I celebrated my birthday at Chiki Chan and the food was amazing ~ complements to the Chef, the chicken inasal was so tasty, the burrata was so yum! the porterhouse steak cooked to perfection, the chicken rib fried to perfection, the sauce of the steamed barramundi has a great balance, everything we ordered was great and all the staff were very accomodating. It was a busy day but I could see that all the staff are making sure everyone is having a great experience. I highly recommend and will definitely come back!💯

If you’re looking for bold, vibrant flavours with a playful twist, Chiki Chan absolutely delivers. This place has such a fun, energetic vibe—modern yet relaxed—and it feels like the kind of spot you keep coming back to.The menu is creative and full of personality, blending Asian-inspired dishes with a contemporary edge. Every plate is beautifully presented, but more importantly, packed with flavour—fresh, punchy, and perfectly balanced. It’s the kind of food that makes you want to try everything on the menu.The service is just as impressive—friendly, attentive, and genuinely enthusiastic about the food. The team really adds to the whole experience, making you feel welcome from the moment you walk in.Overall, Chiki Chan is a standout—great atmosphere, exceptional food, and a place that leaves a lasting impression. Definitely one to revisit again and again

Really enjoyed our dinner here.We dined on the 18/03 using first table.We had an awesome younger male waiter that was easy to talk to and just seemed like he loved his job and the environment which is hard to come by these days!! He is an asset to the team.Food was epic, highly recommended the new pork katsu dish! We sat outside which was nice also as it was a warm arvo. Definitely would recommend coming here!

Ignore every review saying there isn't enough food....we witnessed every table get take away containers (including two containers ourselves). MASSIVE serving sizes!We ordered the $75 set menu, and needless to say we were more than well fed. The dishes were unique and creative, very much on par with the likes of hochi mama style cuisine.Service was prompt, and waiters were attentive. We did order edamame and they forgot, however when we reminded them and assured them we didn't need it (more than enough food), they were kind enough to give us a complimentary drink. Mistakes happen in any restaurant, but how places recover from mistakes is what makes them stand out. This was certainly appreciated.Waiter also had sick as watch on, very sexy.Thanks team for a great night out! Would recommend, great value for moolah
