Couldn’t recommend Chiki Chan in Mordialloc enough. The food was unreal from start to finish.Massive shoutout to head chef Fin — you can tell a lot of thought and creativity has gone into the menu. Every dish we tried was packed with flavour, well balanced and genuinely memorable. Easily one of the best feeds I’ve had in a while.Also have to mention Cash behind the bar. The drinks were unreal and matched the food perfectly. Great cocktails and you can tell he knows exactly what he’s doing behind the bar.And a big shoutout to our waiter Charlie, who looked after us all night. He made sure we always had everything we needed, had great communication throughout the meal and made the whole experience feel effortless.Amazing food, unreal drinks, great service and an awesome atmosphere. Finn, Cash and Charlie absolutely nailed it. Will definitely be back!

Absolutely loved my experience at Chiki Chan on Friday night! 💕 As a coeliac girly, I’m always so appreciative when staff take the extra time to understand my dietary needs, and the care I received was honestly amazing.A huge thank you to the bartender who went out of his way to check every ingredient in a particular cocktail to make sure it was coeliac-safe, and then offered me a safe option for my second drink. I’ve honestly never received that level of care and consideration before.It made me feel so looked after and allowed me to enjoy my night without the usual worry. Such a wonderful experience and delicious food! Thank you so much, Chiki Chan! 🥰✨

Food was very tasty, Beef Rendang the stand-out. Seated by the door which had a cold breeze, had to request they turn the heater on, no one wants to be cold at lunch. Not much atmosphere for Saturday lunch but good service.

Love the Asian fusion and design of the place. Spacious and comfortable, just a little too dark and the photos couldn't justify the goodness of dishes. Service was fantastic and it wasn't noisy as at all! Delicious food but the menu is a bit small, and it didn't help when they ran out of pork, chicken and prawn on Sunday night at 1700, so the choices were limited.Parking is pretty easy on the side street too! Hopefully next time I could try other dishes and their menu could grow bigger.

Overall, we had a pleasant experience with friendly service and a great atmosphere. Our waiter was attentive and welcoming.The vegetable dumplings were a little disappointing. They were served on what was described as a dark soy sauce, but it was much sweeter than expected. The dumplings themselves were quite under-seasoned and would have benefited from a saltier, more savoury soy sauce to balance the flavours.We visited on curry night and arrived at 6:00 pm. The menu advertised two curries, a beef rendang and a fish curry but the fish curry wasn’t available. That was disappointing, especially so early in the evening when it’s being promoted as a curry night and they were the only two curries on offer. The beef rendang curry was delicious and full of flavour, but there were quite a few pieces of meat that were mostly fat. It also arrived only just warm, bordering on cold, and would have been much better served hotter. The roti was tasty, but unfortunately it was a little too greasy.On a positive note, the burrata dish was absolutely delicious and easily the standout of the meal. I’d definitely recommend ordering it!Overall, there’s a lot to like, especially the atmosphere and service, but the food could do with a little more seasoning and better attention to temperature.

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 🙂
