The fried sticks were so delicious. Grilled were also excellent but the crispness of the fried with the spice coating just *chefs kiss*. Flavourful and cooked perfectly. We had the squid, prawn and cuttlefish ball.
I didnt get his name but i think he is the supervisor! He was very friendly and super accomodating. We will be back

Review: it was one of those days when it was 2pm but my stomach was grumbling. Stumbled upon this place while shopping. The premise of pick a stick is quite simple - you have to pick a minimum of 4 sticks. They have a wide array of meat and non-meat options (vegans rejoice!). I went for the lamb, pork, quail egg and tofu.
The tofu was honestly the best - crispy and went well with the seasoning. I wish I added more spice to my lamb and pork - I erred on the conservative side and asked for slight spice. Should have gone for more - it turned out to be not as spicy! Pricing of $16 for 6 sticks was not the cheapest tea time option, but I guess you pay for a novel meal! Limited spaces in store but you can eat at the dining precinct.

My friend invited me to tried this brand new sichuan street food by dainty sichuan. Absolutely enjoyed through you picked whatever you want and they fried and then they grilled it for you. It can be strong flavour but loved it
It such hard to find this little shop hidden away in the melbourne central. But I'm glad that I found it. It's starting to be a trend around melbourne. This is one of those sichuan street food offering grill stick that you can choose from. High recommend those sweet potato absolutely delicious.
very different place，chinese bbq
Situated in the Ella food court and I’ve a lot about them. This is a new Sichuan street food style bbq which I love so much. Highly recommended
Wandered through Melbourne central to find this little strip of eateries and I’m so excited to go back and try them all! This shop was so cute and reminiscent of my times in Hong Kong with street vendors selling skewers on the spot. We ordered the chicken, lamb, pork, squid and fish balls. We tried the non spicy sauce which had sesame seeds and a sweet savoury glaze with a hint of Szechuan pepper. All the skewers were super tasty but the fried fish balls were the BEST! If you love fish balls you have to try these! Will definitely be back! Although I recommend getting beverages elsewhere as I paid $10 for two small bottles of juice.
Went for the chips which were recommended to me, and left satisfied with everything we ordered. Spent $23 for 2 people, which was 3 sticks each and a serving of chips. Skewers were seasoned really well - we got the spicy seasoning and would highly recommend. Best was the shiitake mushroom skewer.
Chips are to die for. Not for people sensitive to spice, but worth the mouth burn. Not much seating, but given in a takeaway bucket so easy to transport.
Not sure about cross-contamination issues for vegetarians/vegans as I could only see one fryer (though cannot confirm this - they may make an exception). No sign of nuts though would need to ask if you have an allergy.
Don't forget napkins!
Loved the sweet potato chips so much! I’m already a fan of sweet potato 🍠🍠🍠, but Pick A Stick gives sweet potato chips a unique twist with a plum seasoning that goes surprisingly well with it. Definitely worth a try!
