Salaryman - Surry Hills

We were celebrating so chose the Chef's Crush Me sharing menu with a slight variation to remove meat dishes. Every dish was amazing, beautifully presented and so, so tasty. Service was excellent, with staff explaining each dish and its ingredients. Price is very reasonable - we splashed out a bit on drinks as it was a celebration. Decor is cool and modern, great music that is loud enough to enjoy but doesn't drown out conversation. Absolutely loved Salaryman and will definitely return.

I was travelling and ate alone. Loved that I could eat at the kitchen bar and talk to the chefs. It meant I didn't have to feel awkward sitting at a table alone. I was there early so the service was naturally fantastic. The food was wonderful. Had the prawn cake as entree, like I've never had before. Followed up with the calamari, which was outstanding. Real friendly staff. Recommend.

Awesome food, friendly service - not only from wait staff but the chefs in the kitchen too. good pricing, nice playlist, would defiantly recommend.

I have been here three times in the last six weeks because the food is soooo incredible, inventive and tasy! This chef knows his flavours!!! The raw fis salad is so refreshing, the beef tartare has a unique twist, the grilled squid & kimchi braised chickpea is an amazing combo & the lamb & pork hock is to die for, especially accompanied by the miso butter cabbage! Make sure you save room for dessert though, they are perfection. The service is very friendly, efficient & welcoming. Everything about this place is fantastic, even the playlist. I can't wait to go back.

I went to Salaryman for lunch. We shared plates. The food was excellent! The waiter explained the menu really well for us. I would highly recommend their cauliflower and BBQ prawn plates. The sashimi was also great, fresh Kingfish with plums and cucumber. We shared a miso caramel slice for dessert. It was unusual but worked, very creamy and rich.
