Eating at a restaurant that is somewhere between a fast food restaurant and a casual restaurant. The food is made quickly, but the menu is healthier and the food is of a higher quality than in a fast food restaurant.
i'm in the mood for fast casual dining tonight, cuz we don't have much time but I don't want anything greasy.

Casual fine dining refers to a restaurant that has incredible food, but does not require strictly business attire and does not have white tablecloths. Casual fine dining restaurants have a family friendly atmosphere. Prices can reflect an upscale restaurant.
The Cheesecake Factory is a great restaurant. When I want to go to a Casual fine dining restaurant, that's where I go.
