Walking past Mamasan, a glance at the menu had us hooked with the duck pancakes. Adding to this the Fish on Fire (salmon) and chilli greens, we had a fine meal going.
A cosy little gem out the back of Surry Hills.
Very inconspicuous from the outside but the upstairs is full of life, death and great food. I really enjoyed the fish popcorn among other great dishes. Service is fast and friendly.

Came here on a Tuesday night at around 6pm.
The interior is casual, the upstairs dining area has a very rustic and earthy decor with flowers and what appears to be a real tree running through the wall. Downstairs where they hold live music is quite small and cramp, and is a little uncomfortable.
Food and drink came quite quickly, and the service from the Japanese woman was exceptional.
I had the Shochu called Iichiko “Really Good”, it was powerful but smooth.
My bf had the Rice Beer (Koshihikari Echigo), and he says it was one of the best beers he ever had.
We ordered the Tea Smoked Pancakes, the Moreton Bay Bug, the Sesame Prawn Rolls, and the Mamasan Chips. We finished the night off with the Gooey, and the Matcha Creme Brulee. Everything was absolutely sensational, but the portion sizes are so tiny, especially for the price.
What weirded me out was the bathroom. It is so cramped downstairs especially during live music night and it was so awkward to get to.
Recommendations: The Moreton Bay Bug.
$160 for two people.
