Chino Latino in artsy Uptown is usually wall-to-wall people, noisy and busy. Chino Latino is about dressing well, being current and making the scene. Look for the sparkly glitter marquee. If you can, stake out a large round, comfortable booth or group size table. The food and drink is as chic as the crowd. The menu features dishes from south of the border and Asia with many selections being hot and spicy. Choose from tacos, enchiladas, tostadas, Sweet and Sour Chicken, spring rolls stuffed with shrimp, chicken or noodles, sh... read more

Chino Servers – I think that the servers at Chino Latino are among the best and most attentive in Minneapolis. One of the best things about Chino Latino is its efficiency. They have foodrunners to bring out the dishes, servers to take your order and check up on you occasionally, bus boys to clear your table, and occasionally when it is really busy, they have followers that walk around and fill drinks when the servers won't be able to in a timely matter. The service and atmosphere at Chino Latino are first rate.
Fun... – The food was good, but the I've had better service. Good drinks, a little bit expensive. Make reservations if dinning past 6:00 pm
Fun, fun, fun – It attracts a very specific kind of crowd, but that is neither bad nor atypical for a restaurant located in the heart of Up-town. Dress trendy and prep your tastebuds for a worldly experience. There is a very exciting and lengthy menu, each entree with it's own unique flavor. The servers are exceedingly helpful explaining things and making suggestions. Trust them. From the creative menu, to the fun drink options, to the insulting fortune cookies, Chino Latino makes for a great night out on the town.
Poor, poorer, poorest – I gave Chino 3 chances to live up to all the hype and expectations. The service has been poor at best on all 3 occasions. The wait staff is inattentive, pushy and rude. The food is not new and exciting. It's boring. The atmosphere is cool but way, way too loud. How can you enjoy a meal when you have to shout at your dining companions who are 4 feet from you. Service is what sells me on all the restaurants I frequent and I will never frequent Chino Latino again.
What's all the hubbub? – We went on a weekend night, 2 couples with a reservation. We were seated a half hour late. Conversation was nearly impossible, the place is an echo chamber. Food was good, and creative, but the service was slow, and snobby. You need to have something to be snobby about.
art deco meets urban crowd with a twist – I have been dining at Chino Latino since shortly after it opened & have been pleased everytime. Great for a large crowd! Try the pig roast for that special get together! Be sure & get a magnet on your way out too.
Nice Escape – I went there, because of what I read in City Pages; and I was really taken away. I like how, the minute you step in the door, you feel taken away from Minneapolis. We had a noodle dish with an appetizer of some salmon sushi. (I didn't like the sushi, but my date loved it) I liked how the portions are meant for 2-4 people, so you can just share... The bathrooms were interesting, too :) I would go back again.
Scale of 1-10, 4 – Extremely noisy, and the food was just there. Had several entrees but did not care for any of them.
Not for the quiet seekers! – I absolutely love this place!! The have the best mix of foods, drinks, and volume. You get energized just after stepping in the door. Bar is great for people watching....Curry shrimp is the absolute best thing on their menu. One of the greatest places to go with a group for a dinner party!! If you want an experience not like anything else around, check this place out. One note, if you are looking for a romantic or quiet restaraunt -- look elsewhere!!
