O Lusitano
Dongguan's first Portuguese Restaurant

CHINO LATINO

As in life sometimes restaurants go through a series of changes, sometimes small, sometimes big.  And so it was for one of the older restaurants in town, Chino Latino.  Started several years ago by Jeun Nackorda as a welcome addition to his other club China Groove, Chino Latino featured the first restaurant in town with real Italian and Mexican food, in a cozy jazz club atmosphere.  However, SARS came, and with it the reduction of  clientele that plagued many restaurants in this area of the country.

The main feature of the restaurant is food, and there’s plenty of good food to go around.  Chino holds its own in that respect with good pizza, pasta and other chicken, beef and seafood dishes.  When Jason took over management, he re-evaluated the menu, removed some items that he thought didn’t make sense and reduced the prices by as much as 50 percent on some items.. 

In addition to Italian food, Chino features some of the best Mexican food in Dongguan  such as burritos,  fajitas,  quesadillas, and other items too numerous to mention. 

A nice place for either a company dinner, or a hangout to enjoy drinks, companionship, and the 2 for 1 drink special happy hour that runs nightly from 6 p.m. to 9 p.m.  An additional happy hour runs from 1:30 a.m. until closing, which is sometimes at 9 a.m., depending on when the last customer leaves

Go check out the renewed Chino Latino, spend some time and have a drink, soak up the atmosphere and enjoy. 

Chino is located in the Nan Cheng district of Dongguan, at 14 Ye Feng Road, on the second floor, just down the street from the Silverland Hotel and 2 doors down from the China Groove.  Phone number is 0769 2281 7649  E-Mail: chinolatino@vip..163.com
