Casa Chow Woolloongabba | Must Do Brisbane

Casa Chow is a stunning Chinese-Peruvian restaurant and bar perched on the corner of South City Square in Woolloongabba.*

From the savvy owners of neighbouring Sasso Italiano, Casa Chow is the first restaurant to bring a taste of chifa cuisine to Brisbane.

The dazzling pastel-hued restaurant offers outdoor deck seating, and a mix of bar stool and comfy leather booth seating inside, including a mezzanine level purple-pink nook with luxe private booths.

The unique menu, a fusion of Chinese and Peruvian known as chifa, derives from Chinese migration to Peru in the late 19th and early century when traditional Cantonese dishes were blended with local food, to create a cuisine which is now prevalent in Peru and that has spread to neighbouring countries.

On the menu, which is designed to share, you'll find Starters such as Pipies, lap cheong, garlic chives, ginger and chipotle; Chicken wings a la brasa sauce & chipoltle lime mayo or Empanada with potato, chorizo, manchego & rocoto dip.
