Mietta's Review
At the North Adelaide Casuarina restaurant hawker dishes were served in a modern upmarket cafe. Owner James Tan sold that business, so now you have to go to the Westfield shopping centre to find the famous fish head curry, beef rendang and salt and pepper squid. Entrees $11.90-$19.90, mains $11.90-$32.

Other published opinions

Adelaide Advertiser 2006 "Malaysian A little mecca of flavour with a sense of cultural integrity and better-than-average service is what you'll find inside Marion's mega shopping complex. Casuarina's menu offers 10 specials permanent enough to be carded, signature dishes marked, as well as entrees, noodles, rice and roti dishes."

The Adelaide Advertiser 2/6/04 Tony Love score 14+/20, "Interesting Malay/nonya-style cooking in an unexpected location. Some dishes miss the mark. Others do well. worth exploring."
