to share/for smaller plates we got the smoked prawns, fried tofu and we got red emperor which was a replacement for charred kingfish for that night. for the larger dishes, we ordered the chicken katsu and smoked lamb ribs. dishes had good flavours but there was nothing that stood out.

we waited for dessert only to realise the waitress forgot about ours and gave the table next to us their dessert first (who ordered after us). the same waitress brought out the wrong dish earlier. but when it arrived, the coconut ice cream was very smooth and had a great flavour.

the service was subpar for a one hatted restaurant and although everything is presented very well, the flavours weren't amazing.

yan is like finding a gem. great food and even better service. the beef ribs were awesome ans deep fried squid was crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. highly recommended

great pork and beef but that's all they're good for yet they're incredibly stingy with the portions. it must be about 100g for $25. the side dishes of surprisingly bland rice and veggies were four times the size of the meat dishes!

creative fusion menu. smoke prawn, ribs, preserved veggie fried rice and the coconut ice cream is amazing! great service too. outdoor seating available but probably cant cater a big dining group of people due to the size of restaurant

i found this little gem via instagram - it’s a japanese fusion smokehouse restaurant. the restaurant was quite busy and the food came out quite quickly!

the highlight for night was definitely the deep fried squid, it was delicious and had an intense umami flavour, this dish must be eaten with rice as it was so flavourful! the crispy chicken had a great smokey flavour and quite big - it could definitely feed 3 people.

if you are interested in a cute japanese restaurant that’s not in the cbd but quite modern, this restaurant is perfect!

the service wasn’t too bad as we kept trying to get the staffs attention but i did understand it was busy, my overall experience was 7/10.

yan @woolicreek is an asian-fusion restaurant. yan has two no-frilled menus: one for lunch and another for dinner. diners can enjoy a shared menu with ingredients ranging from teriyaki sauce, sze chuan pepper, sisho leaves, ginger, curry oil, chinese bbq sauce, chimichurri sauce, sansho (japanese pepper) with meat and seafood. i was fortunate to try almost everything from the dinner menu, thanks to a colleague's birthday celebration.despite the humble size, yan stood out because of exceptional customer service and very good food. i enjoyed the charred kingfish, smoked pork rib, smoked beef short, and the ginger-lime dipping sauce for the smoked prawn. while i appreciate chefs' effort into the food, i suggest a raise of food standard for some selections. i thought the tofu in sze chuan pepper and crushed peanut to be bland, plus the tofu was not fried (as described). i hope yan at least made their own tofu. the side dishes such as pickled cucumber, broccolini, and olive rice, are alright. however, the steam bao which i was looking forward to, turned out to be tough, cold, and below average. they were served when we almost finished the main dishes so we had no choice but to eat them alone. i didn't mind paying over $80 per person for a small tasting menu (we were a group of 10), considering the quality and fine-dining style. however, it was disappointing to find out the desserts were not included. we ordered coconut ice cream & coconut jelly, which was nice but did not get a 'wow' reaction from me. if you've tried the vietnamese version of it, you'll understand my verdict. the yogurt moose with fresh mangoes and the mandarin crumb was light, well-balanced, and refreshing.

great upper class dining in the st george area. beef and pork ribs are the recommended meals for mine. beer was cheap for the style of restaurant. definitely get the beer to wash it down.

this is a really nice modern asian fusion restaurant. my favourites were the kingfish sashimi, fried squid and pork ribs. definitely also order the steamed baos on the side which were really soft and fluffy. for dessert, the coconut icecream was really good and comes served in a coconut. the restaurant gets very busy so best to make a booking beforehand.

nice food - crispy chicken, tender beef ribs and squids, creamy coconut ice cream with jelly. cons - a bit too cramped since it is a small restaurant.

this place is a must try in wolli creek. before our dish arrives i felt the price is pretty high for the meal. turns out to be very generous and rich flavoured. the texture of coconut icecream is amazing, dreamy and soft.

to find a little gem outside the city is rare. to see the amount of effort and care the owner and staff put into providing a memorable experience is commendable. the food was wonderful and the service was above and beyond. keep it up!

we felt lucky to get a table outside at first, but the waiting time for the food come was too long. we couldn't wait anymore so cancelled the coconut ice cream .
not worth your money.

coconut ice cream is the hero of the dinner, it’s creamy and smooth. however, the ribs and chicken katsu are not worth it . the portion is small but the flavor is average , sydney has way more better flavors ribs and katsu which also offer reasonable portion. olive rice taste a bit weird , might just we are not the fan of them

not worth the price and food was too salty and slow service. the beef ribs were too burnt to the point of being carcinogenic and really overpriced for the quality of food they provided. not worth trying if you haven't yet !
