I went to Cochin for a foodie meet-up in June and enjoyed every dish.

Cōchin — supposingly Vietnamese with a French twist, except the concept seems to have been lost in much of the menu design, or inadequately showcased in our Feed Me option. Hits and misses in the dishes we had; standouts being the fried quail and chateaubriand, perfectly executed in texture and taste, and were common favourites in our group. Other dishes seemed to lack the finesse in bringing a great idea to fruition (like the crispy green rice prawns); in other cases the flavours were not balanced (like the prawns in coconut milk). Service was welcoming, with staff extending greetings like to a friend whenever we crossed paths. However on balance, there isn’t really a compelling reason for me to return, not least because Melbourne has many Asian fusion options.

5 stars for a 5 star experience, lovely restaurant with lovely balanced flavours of Vietnam with a French twist. Well presented and clean restaurant, with friendly and attentive service. Could not fault the tastes and sensations of well prepared, fresh and well presented food. Try the Hanoi low carb beer goes very well with the spices and herbs of Vietnam. Next time where in town we will definitely revisit. Recommended

I recently had my 50th birthday party at our Cochin. Sonija, Jason and the staff went above and beyond to make it a truly memorable occasion. The food was incredible (as always) and our guests were quick to comment about it too! Great selection of beer and wine and the service was first class. Everyone had a wonderful time and couldn’t stop raving at how well they were looked after! Look forward to visiting again soon! xx

Very good food and the special – steamed barramundi with soy and ginger sauce – was outstanding. The Saturday banquet had more than enough food for 2. Very attentive service. Definitely will come again.

Interesting Vietnamese restaurant with a French influence. The place has a bush ambience in the trendy part of Swan street, Richmond. The dishes were tasty with a bit of kick. Desserts were French style with a twist. Service was friendly.

First time back since pre Covid and it didn’t disappoint. I can never go past the pork belly, it’s some of the best I’ve ever had. Still! I shared that along with the seafood noodle stir fry. The flavours are just beyond, so tasty and fresh. Service is also still top notch, the guys are professional and helpful but also charming and funny.

Perfectly Melbourne, Vietnamese food with a French twist. Staff are friendly, food is amazing and the owner is a seasoned pro. Definitely grab a bottle of wine and try the share plates. Perfectly cooked and portioned food!
