One of the best place i ever been. The place where you don’t mind being your hands and clothes dirty 😂. We ordered big mixed bags and shrimp martini thing but couldn’t finish it. The sauce is the killer. I would recommend trying it with steamed rice. Its worth every penny.

June 24, 2022Had such a great experience here for my birthday! I ordered the mixed bag of seafood with garlic butter and it was absolutely delicious! They didn't have any baby octopus but we were given extra prawns instead. The service was great! The lovely staff members brought out my birthday cake, sang to me and even gifted me a rose which was a nice surprise! Thank you Kickin' Inn Petersham for a lovely experience! My friends and I left feeling very satisfied and happy 😊 Will definitely come back again!

June 4, 2022What an Amazing Food Experience. The food was out of this world and the Service is first class.You definitely take your taste buds on a journey and the concept of eating off the table is a game changer. The Kids absolutely Loved it. It’s so refreshing to go out to eat and enjoy it with the family. We were lucky enough to meet Sami one of the owners who was so accommodating to our needs.

March 24, 2022Seafood boil! Received a nice free dessert, must've been like a Caramel tart, nice! Came with free bibs, gloves and wipes most definitely needed. Was so filling! We got the butter mixed plate and it was good! Had alot of spices in it and jam packed. I don't know how I was supposed to pour it but I did it! Would order another, be great for winter! Maybe 3 bags required to hold the goodness 🙂

February 6, 2022The food was delicious and the service was impeccable. I’ve never tried anything like it. We had a couple of the mixed bags and some of the starters. Emma was especially very helpful on the night and made sure we were taken care of. A very fun experience and I look forward to coming back.

February 6, 2022Fun way to eat seafood with family and friends! Make sure to book a reservation or otherwise go during off-peak times like very late lunch after 2pm if you want to walk in without a booking. We had the mystery bag which was enough for 6 people. Staying clean was pretty easy with the bibs and gloves provided. Staff were friendly and welcoming, really good venue overall.
Christine Diaz
January 30, 2022Bloody love Kickin Inn, even if I can't handle the spice 🥵 gone a few times and always impressed. The food is delicious and the sauce is *chef's kiss* too good to be true. Staff always look like they're having a blast and the experience is so unique. Went a few weeks ago, Carla and her team were amazing from start to finish. Looking forward to the next visit!
Ben Watson
January 19, 2022I highly recommend this place for all seafood lovers!! The food was so flavoursome, specifically the Sha-bang sauce was really unique and delicious. I love the tipping the bag onto the table idea, I think it’s a great way to eat seafood! This restaurant is definitely one that all seafood lovers must try, you will definitely not regret it!
Athena Cartier
January 18, 2022Awesome place to celebrate my wife's b'day. Food was great and atmosphere was very friendly. Serving up directly on the table was a bit hard to get used at first, but ended up a fun experience. Staff were amazing!

December 18, 2021Loved the mixed bags, highly recommend the Garlic Butter and the Sha Bang sauces, amazing. Definitely an experience for the kids to eat off the table, I think they might want to eat off the table at home from now on also. The couple of times we got the fried food were quite dry. Really hope they would open stores in the north side.

December 17, 2021Had a wonderful family dinner, great ambience, very friendly staffs and the food was above our expectation. Special thanks to Shoib bro for suggesting us the best options. You made our day. Will surely come back. 👍

November 25, 2021Best place for family birthday celebrations! We have had 3 birthday dinners here for different members of our family this year and it’s always so much fun. They play the birthday song over the speakers, the entire staff comes around to sing and spoils us with cakes, drinks and presents! And of course, the food and high quality customer service never disappoints! Massive thanks to Sanjay and his team for such a fabulous and special time with my family!!! They were all more than accommodating to the many questions and requests we had 🙂
Tam T
November 21, 2021It was a great experience to have my birthday celebration in this restaurant. This is my first time to such a tasty and yummy seafood! The service was so great, they even sang me happy birthday and brought a rose, cake and a drink. So sweet!
Ferdinand Say
November 11, 2021Last night we had a BEST time dinner that I think we ever had. Our server Sanjay was adorable and full of personality plus. He was attentive and entertaining and very HELPFUL together with his TEAM. He is a huge asset to your restaurant and He deserve much kudos! We will definitely be back soon!

Delicious, Tasty and good value. Unique dining experience in a fun atmosphere. Friendly and helpful staff. Mid range prices and a good section of items on the menu, there's kids and lunch options available. BYO and Licensed. Great for groups but they don't split bills.

October 14, 2021Friendly fast and amazingly delicious! Never had I thought I'd have the opportunity for some good good ol' Louisiana cuisine and they delivered. They delivered on time and made birthday a memorable one. thanks guy, love your stuff, and you've got a life long customer

September 26, 2021I went absolutely gaga over the garlic kajun whole fresh prawns. It was subliminally good and I tasted little bites of heaven! 100% recommended. Oh, I'm definitely coming back. ❤
Sumer Roy
September 1, 2021Delicious, I love the concept. Nice clean restaurant, friendly staff, good variety on the menu. Food was super tasty, we had the lobster and mini mixed bag with two glasses of wing for just under $80 for lunch and I was able to use the dine and discover voucher. The sauce on the seafood was delish. I really like the concept of pouring it on the table and eating with your hands.

June 26, 2021We came here on a public holiday to try out the seafood. They're amazing. We ordered the mixed bag together with mild Sha-Bang sauce. Absolutely delicious. I also love the sweet potato fries!

June 19, 2021Cool ambience. Loved the experience. Eating food with hands no plates and everything is placed on the table😅😅. Very cool experience. The service was nice and staff were very friendly. Totally recommend the place. Will surely visit again.
Riya Basnet
June 16, 2021Interesting experience, they dump the food out on the table and you simply dig in wearing the black latex gloves they provide. It leaves a massive mess on the table but it also fun to eat this way. As for the food (lunch), we found it to be very nice. We got the peeled prawns and the pippies. Myself and the wife both agree we would go back for a dinner feed and drinks (they have a good drinks menu).
Robert Goodall
June 6, 2021Had the best time. We went for a casual date night, staff were so friendly and moved our reservation to a later time (it was a quite night). Staff were so friendly and made us feel welcome as it was our first time! Would definitely recommend and is great as a couple but also in a group! Sanjay was the best!

June 1, 2021Have been here a couple of times. Kickin Inn are *awesome* at seafood in a bag. The shebang sauce with a mid level of spice is my recommendation and get one of the suggested 'bags' or better still, the 'Drag and Drop' option which I think is the best way to get exactly what you want. The entree Shrimp cocktail is pricey but quite big and an OK option if you are not going the whole hog with a big bag of seafood. The lobster plate (not in a bag) was a bit dry and I would not order it again. The place is rocking on a busy night and gets chaotic, loud and messy, but overall a good atmosphere. One thing to absolutely stay away from is their so-called 'cocktails'. These overpriced barely alcoholic soft drinks served in a schooner glass are an insult to the genre. I would be shot down in flames (and sacked) if I ever presented a cocktail that looked like that where I worked. You are best off with table water which you will have to specially ask for. If you stick to the great seafood here, with that awesome shebang sauce you will want to drink right out of the bag, you are just about guaranteed a fantastic feast. Enjoy.

May 3, 2021Absolutely fabulous! The service was amazing, warm and welcoming, attention to detail and friendly. Didn't have to wait long at all fir our dinner. They politely watched and waited till we had finished our dinner and surprised me with a birthday cake with a lit candle followed by a beautiful rose. To complete the amazing experience the staff sang happy birthday to me and watched me blow out the candle. We highly recommend it. Hurry and book a table. I'm definitely going again
Diana Nahmy
April 15, 2021Fun experience with friends. We loved the garlic butter sauce with king crab. Be careful of the hot sauce that can drip off the tables when pouring the goods out of the bags. Lot of single use plastic being used here which made me a bit uncomfortable to be honest. Some items are understandable but cups definitely didn't have to be.
Stephanie Lee
April 6, 2021Had dinner here tonight, it was quite an experience. Well worth the 2 trains and 6 minutes walk to get there. We had a mixed bag with sha-bag sauce, a while lobster with garlic butter sauce which came with chips and salad and 2 serves of rice. Everything we had was delicious and tasty. The seafood was fresh and well cooked not over cooked at all, very juicy and the crabs were sweet in taste. Worth going as a group and splitting the bill. We were served by Nathan who was great with sharing the menu and giving us suggestions of what's good. Thanks for a great end to the week.

February 26, 2021Great fun and different- if you don’t mind no plates or cutlery you will love it. We went for 2 different flavors which was great a garlic and the combination. 2 bags of mixed seafood which was more then plenty for 4 of us. It’s simple fun and yum. Highly recommend this place to anyone
Leon Cristy
February 13, 2021By far the most incredible dine in experience. Felt like I was in another country, the service was so fun and the food, OH MY GOD IT'S SO TASTY. Its obvious lots of work went into providing a unique and fun experience for the diner. Thank you for making this place a reality, thank you for making us and my 4yr old feel so welcome and not want to leave. See you again soon. You are amazing
Mark Antony Ramos
February 7, 2021This was so awesome!!!! No plates and there is no cutlery, you eat right from the bag, on the table and with your hands. Bibs and gloves provided. Our waitress Natalie was so lovely! She was so helpful and spent time to explain the menu and answer all our questions! Such a fun experience and such lovely and polite staff!! Definitely recommend.

I went here with my friends to have dinner and it was amazing! The service was great, food is delicious and all the staff were friendly. Special thanks to Arpan for accommodating us and making sure we are having a great time! It was worth every penny ❤️ Can’t wait to go back. 🙂

January 10, 2021My partner took me here to celebrate my birthday and the food and atmosphere was amazing. We ordered the mud crab and food was prepared to an exceptional standard and was absolutely delicious. On top of this the staff were all so friendly and one of the co-owners Stevie, took the time to welcome us personally as this was our first time. They brought out a delicious cake and sang happy birthday and really made the night very memorable. We’re looking forward to going back very soon !
Anna Shankinie
December 14, 2020Nice place for an occasion. Having food served onto your table and eating with hands is a fun novelty but gloves and bibs are provided. Disappointingly, several items we were after weren't in stock when we dined. Food was on the saltier side but the she-bang sauce was nice. Definitely a place to go with groups. The balloons for kids were a nice touch.
Ryan T
December 5, 2020What can I say 🙌🏼 I booked this dinner for my friends birthday and it will be a birthday she will never forget. The service, food and atmosphere were amazing!! The staff surprised her with a birthday 🎂 song, cake, shot and beautiful rose 🌹 making the evening as memorable as it was delicious 🤤 Highly recommended, I know I will be going back for more.
Fotini Barberakis
November 5, 2020Really generous portion sizes! Really good service and explanation for first time visitors. Garlic Cajun is the way to go! No complaints here. Had the mix bad and Alaskans king crab cluster. Cluster was amazing. Really nice tasty food all up. Also to see the owner in on a Sunday and interacting with staff and guests is always a major plus to see! Will be back again!
