Food was good, although serving sizes were half the size of the servings at Chinta Ria Mood for Love. Dining room is quite cold & overcrowded.

Excellent restaurant. Food and service always great. Only improvement would be to increase the volume in music: it Is too quiet out the back and everyone can hear what you are saying if There aren’t many tables busy

Great food and service and very quick if you are in a hurry. Corkage is $4 per person which isn't bad if you want to bring a good wine.

I remember when the restaurant had a tropical garden outlook so was disappointed this had been removed. However service and food still good and very well priced. Great place if you want low key and easy to talk in Double Bay

I had Chinta Kechil recommended and went with friends to try it out. The major issue I had was the food was over cooked and for a couple of dishes the protein was dry. Order included a fish dish and chicken dish and both came to the table dry and chewy. The beef rendang was good the calamari was OK. I will try again as I am assured the meals can be good.

I grew up in Singapore so this is my home away from home. In particular we like the Char Kway Teow, Beef Rendang and the Okra. On this occasion the Roti were a little too over cooked but it won't stop us going back over and over again!

Excellent food and service, very reasonable prices. Obviously a popular restaurant, every table occupied which is a good indication of rating by the local population. BYO which makes it easy to match the food with a wine of your choice.
