An absolute gem. Really loved everything we got. Food came out quickly and was well presented. Does close kinda early? We went on a Friday night which said it was open “till late” but last call for food was at 8:30pm. So make sure you don’t go too late. My only complaint is the napkins they have are really thin and flimsy which make eating juicy bao buns and sticky ribs a bit more of a challenge.
Chinoiserie is a true gastronomic gem in Auckland. With bao buns that are second to none, an extraordinary crispy cauliflower dish cooked to perfection, attentive staff, and a captivating ambience, this Asian fusion establishment is a must-visit for food enthusiasts and explorers of culinary delights. Prepare to embark on a flavor-packed journey that will leave you craving more.
Gathering from all the reviews I was so worried that this was gonna be a dim dark and blue seating but was pleasantly surprised with the lightly lit interior, beautiful decor and funky music! Loved the dragon which wrapped around the kitchen. Waited to be seated but was served at once. Ordered the pork bun, ribs and coconut pudding. Pork bun For some reason I wasn't wowed by the display but was still impressed by the size of the pork. The bun itself was very soft and pleasant to the bite, pork was flavorful, more stringy than I would have liked but tasty. A little crisp and fatty which was the best part. Best paired with their available sauces; siracha and their special gong sauce which was delish! 7/10 Ribs First to be served and the aroma was enticing wow. BUT first bite and ugh dry and the least amount of sauce served ribs ever. Some parts were crispy around the bone and that wasn't too bad but overall not impressed. 6/10 Rice pudding Extremely creamy and the coconut toasted to the perfect amount of crispyness. Not extremely sweet, a hint of sweetness and was really yummy. Infused with coconut jelly bits within the rice, a lovely blend!! 8/10 Overall 3 stars since the mains just didn't quite live up to expectations. The dessert definitely saved the mood though, and thank goodness for their gong sauce!
Love the atmosphere here. Food is awesome. I recommend to try their fries with their sauce and the bao. On street parking.
First visit to Chinoiserie and very impressed. South-east Asian street food styles. We ordered a selection of share plates all of which were very tasty. My fave was the popcorn chicken, crispy tofu and OG noodles. Topped it off with a yum sticky rice dessert which was delish. Lovely attentive staff and atmosphere was great. Highly recommend
Top spot. And dog friendly! Had a good dinner with my partner she loves the ribs to bits. Pilsner on tap and got the og noodles and eggplant and that was enough to satisfy my hunger. Will be back and don’t forget the happy hour before 6 Sterling Arnet Kakapo Business Sales
The absolute best experience here! I have a very severe allergy to onion, and Jason took so much care in accomodating me; writing down all the menu items that were safe for me and double/triple checking everything. The food was delicious and I felt so taken care of. Will definitely be back!
Another night out looking for dinner. Wife had been here before. My first time. I had the pork belly bao. Wife had chicken bao. Also had fries popcorn chick prawn bites book choy. Food was really good and I'd go back here no problem. We ordered way to much food it was a push to get thru what we ordered. Was a very busy place nothing flash inside service was ok but if you like this type of food then this is a must try
Went here for dinner this evening with a friend who has a severe food allergy. I messaged the team beforehand on their social media to check if they could accomodate to this and they were beyond helpful. When we arrived and were waiting to order, Jason had cross referenced with the kitchen everything my friend was able to eat plus ones that could just have garnishes removed to be safe to eat and checked over each dish before handing it to us. Extremely lovely staff, helpful and accomodating, and very delicious food. Would highly recommend for your next relaxed meal out! :
Delicious bao, bigger than usual. Sides were tasty too, service was excellent even when quite busy. Food comes out quick! Guy with the zippered polo on a first date we listened to the entire time...keep trying, you're doing great. She was hot but such a bummer. Vegetarian options: Yummy tofu!
