Chinta Ria has set the bar high with their Curry Laksa. Over the years it has remained consistent and has not changed. This is a good thing. And I have foudn it has also remained consistent at all of the Chinta Ria restaurants. For a perfect Laksa, I recommend you try one from here at least once.

Been here so many times... never disappointed! We love it. On a balmy summers evening its great sitting outside being amongst the people wandering around Acland street. The food is sensational. We have probably tried most things on the menu over time, and liked all the dishes, our favorites are the sambal spinach, and seafood laksa, with some Roti on... More

Aftre reading all the great reviews, I didn't have the wow experience I was expecting here. Perhaps it was that my expectations were unfair ... or perhaps it was because we were in a group and took the option of a banquet rather than ordering some of the amazing sounding options available. Our service was very slow, to the point... More

We dined inside where the atmosphere is cosy and clean. The food was delicious and plentiful, great value. We returned however due to the service provided by one particular staff member. She was so friendly and welcoming and her menu recommendations are spot on.

I wasn't feeling well so I thought a bowl of soup would be nice, decided to give their Laksa a shot. I ordered coconut rice on the side because I love it. The meal was amazon and the starters looked great too. Will be back to try something else, definitely.

I love to pop in here on a regular basis when going to a show at the Palais or just wandering around St Kilda. Both this and its sister restaurant on Acland near Fitzroy are great. The food is always top quality and it is extremely reasonable. The service is quick and on the mark, and the staff are just... More

We have been coming to this restaurant for some time now so I thought it only deserving that I share how great it is on tripadvisor. If you are into Laksa look no further, this is seriously the best laksa soup in Melbourne and we have tried many! The service is quick, friendly and the food fabulous and fresh. We... More

The menu is comprehensive, with a good range of Malysian/Chinese food at reasonable prices considering the quality of the meals. The service was attentive and food arrived lightning fast! Would re-visit
