Casa Chi is a cocktail forward Nikkei concept by Chef Richard Sandoval. Nikkei offers a unique, historical blend of flavors combining traditional Japanese tastes with the vibrant palette of Peruvian cuisine. At Casa Chi, the essence of "Earth House" is embodied in every dish, where smoke, fire, and Earth converge as central elements. Smokey Mezcal-forward cocktails and interactive hot stone cooking create a distinct dining experience meant to be shared and savored.

Review summary

AI-generated from verified diner reviews
Casa Chi offers an exquisite dining experience with "absolutely incredible" food, from lobster wonton tacos to smoked swordfish dip. The "outstanding service" and "intimate space" enhance the ambiance. While portions are small and prices high, the drinks and music create a lively atmosphere. Perfect for special occasions with attentive staff.

    The drinks are magnificent,but the food portions were small with the hot stone & they need more than just seafood for those with allergies 🤧

    We booked the Valentines dinner at Casa because it’s close to my apartment and I’ve walked by many times! The set Valentine’s Day dinner was a good way to try out many different plates but by no means did it fill us up! At $130 a couple and added 18% tip I definitely would not come back for Valentines dinner again!! The starter drink was basically a Luke warm smoothie…. We got 2 small rolls (4 pieces total of Sushi) and 2 small dips, which included guac and swordfish dip. The swordfish was the highlight of the dinner. For the main course, you could share one for the table ( fajita style) we got the shrimp which consisted of about 12 small shrimps total. I’d also came with a tiny side of pico de gallo and guacamole, and about six street food size cold flour tortillas !! I think that’s the part that disappointed me most of the tortillas were cold!!!They finish it out with one shared dessert, which is some sort of a lemon cheesecake for two which is very small but tasty. It was Valentine’s Day, so I won’t judge the service which was pretty decent considering how packed they were!! While I’m glad we tried this out but I Definitely won’t be back unless it’s some sort of happy hour where I get the swordfish dip and maybe a more drink. Way overpriced and not worth the price we paid…

    It was our anniversary and we included that in our Open Table reservation. We saw a couple receive a complimentary drink (what seemed for their anniversary). We shared in person with staff that it was on our anniversary. It was just a little uncomfortable to ask to receive what the other couple received because the staff person didn't read our Open Table reservation details. Otherwise we certainly did appreciate the complimentary drink and dessert.
