The menu was limited with everything v spicy sadly Service was good, except there was a large table that were so loud and those allowed it to go on for over an hour. We couldn’t hear each other over the shouting from the large table.

Great night out & food was great … too many happy birthday music played loudly throughout night which brought down ambience

Thanks for the love on the food and fun night! 🎉 Sorry the birthday tunes got a bit loud — we’ll keep the vibes balanced next time for that perfect mix of party and chill. Hope to see you back soon! 🥢✨

Cool experience. Nice vibe in there, something different to the norm. Food was yummy and good quality, well presented and full of flavour - everything cooked really well! Cocktails list was fun and familiar with a twist. Presentation and serving of cocktails was outstanding and added to the experience. Waiter went out of his way to ensure the kids meals weren’t too spicy which was a stand out. Cheeky little dessert and candle for my wife’s birthday too, which I didn’t organise other than selecting birthday celebration when I booked (which is usually 50/50 as to wether the restaurant actually does anything with them).

Loved every bite and moment! Went with family that have different tastes. We went with the lunch deal so everyone got to order something. Amazing range of flavours and textures. Not one dish was a disappointment. The staff were incredible, quick and professional. Amazing how busy it was without losing the fun lunch vibe.

Truly Asian fusion style with flavours from across the continent - all of our choices imparted succulent and unique flavours on our taste buds. Cocktails were fun and theatrical. The ambience was buzzing without being too loud. We loved every moment of our dining experience here!

Very tasty food. We had the Feed Me banquet option. I will say the portion sizes were a little small. But the flavours were great. We'll be back.

Thanks for the love! Flavours first, always — and we’ll keep working on those portions. Can’t wait to welcome you back for more Cha Ching magic! 🥢✨

Our lunch at Cha Ching was really wonderful. The food was delicious and the waiter went out of his way to make us feel welcome and comfortable. The ambience is great, although a little noisy. This, however, was because the restaurant is so full of patrons. And understandably so. We will be back. By the way, we recommend the feed me menu as very good value.
Cha ChingResponded on July 4, 2025
Thanks so much! We’re stoked you loved the food, vibes, and service — and the Feed Me menu is definitely a fan fave! Can’t wait to welcome you back for another round. 🥢🔥
