About Hustlers.Syd

An underground York Street haunt pairing high-octane Asian fusion with a certified 100% Halal kitchen. Descend into a moody basement framed by an interwoven bamboo dragon sculpture, where the room pulses with R&B hits and attentive hospitality that frequently sends out rounds of complimentary drinks. Regulars steer newcomers toward the prawn toast—fried baguette topped with garlic prawn mayo, sesame, and salmon roe—before moving to bone marrow garlic fried rice and rich beef short rib. Well-crafted mocktails, like the kiwi and lychee blends, ensure celebratory tables never miss a beat.

  • Certified Halal Kitchen: The entire kitchen operates without pork or cooking alcohol, ensuring full Halal compliance across the fusion menu.
  • Signature Baguette Prawn Toast: Prawn mince spread over deep-fried baguette rounds, layered with garlic mayo, toasted sesame, and salmon roe.
  • Underground Dragon Sculpture: The subterranean dining room features an interwoven bamboo rod dragon installation that frames the lively space.

    The atmosphere & decor is amazing with lots of bamboo thin rods interwoven in metal casings. The waiter told me that it represents the shape of a dragon.
