Lucky Pickle

We ordered the chilli chicken katsu bowl, which in itself was not extraordinary. I thought the portion size was small and the chicken schnitzel was very thinly cut. I was still hungry afterwards. However, the bowl is light and refreshing if that's what you're craving. And the house chilli oil is delicious. The service however was top notch. The guy who took our order was very friendly, very accommodating of our dietary requirements (I had requested less rice and dressing on the side and my friend had requested no rice) and the bowls were presented neatly. It is a nice spot to soak some sun, tucked away from the busy streets and nicely shaded by some trees.

Lucky Pickle is a great option for higher quality but still reasonably fast lunch food. The Katsu Chicken roll was great, and was big enough to function as a meal by itself. The addition of some (delicious) crisps a nice touch too. It was pretty pricey compared to local options, but nothing too extreme. Service was very friendly.

By far the worst restaurant I’ve eaten at since arriving in Sydney. The food itself was just a Vietnamese roll—nothing special. Most Vietnamese restaurants in Sydney charge around $10 for a roll, but this place charges $18, nearly double the price. I could accept the higher price if it tasted good; however, the pork belly here was the saltiest thing I’ve ever eaten — it tasted as if they’d poured an entire bottle of salt into it. I’m not exaggerating: ten minutes after finishing this pork roll I developed mouth ulcers and broke out in pimples on my face. I can’t imagine how much salt they used! Not recommended.

Had the chili katsu roll and an iced coffee. The bread for the roll was excellent. The chicken, however, was disappointing. It was dry and very bland. The chili condiment helped a bit but wasn't enough to overcome the blandness. Honestly, it was probably the most disappointing food I've had while visiting Sydney. On the other hand, the iced coffee was delicious and service was incredibly friendly.

Came for lunch in a Saturday at around 1pm, we both had the katsu chicken roll and it did not disappoint! Great service and brilliant coffee. If you’re wanting a nice lunch spot in Surry hills this is a great spot!

Casual sandwich place with friendly and fast service for lunch. The roast pork belly roll with chips was good, although not big enough for a full meal by itself. Also it is very pricey compared to nearby places - a Bánh mì would be much better bang for buck.

Good street shop, Very friendly shop assistant. Chili oil has perfect crisp peanuts flavor. their food is definitely worth a try.
