Spring Rolls

Just a word of warning: went to two locations and they both closed (Front St and Eglinton Ave). Sorry, never got to try their food yet. With so many closed locations (There are others I heard), it isn’t exactly a vote of confidence!

I recently had dinner at this location.
It’s a small place but honestly some dishes are super amazing. We had the spring rolls and the bruschaetta for the starters. I thought those were pretty average.
I tried their signature Martini Springrolini I believe. Honestly it was AMAZING. It’s like a frozen vodka guava Bellini sort of cocktail. I loved it. It wasn’t too sweet also, so that’s perfect.
I had the chicken ‘mango tango’ for the main course. It said its spicy but it was NOT AT ALL spicy. Loved the lightly friend chicken, veggies, mango pieces with mango sauce. I loved it.
Doesn’t come with rice/​bread.
The service was really good too.
We went on a Thursday evening. Better make a reservation before you go.

Super disappointed! I went here for my birthday and felt terrible for two days after eating here.
The spider roll was cut too thick, seaweed was super chewy in ALL sushi I ordered, and the crab was over cooked. My wontons were hard, over cooked doughy balls, and I was left waiting at the door to be seated longer than desired. I don’t mean waiting for a seat, I mean waiting to see someone so I could be seated.
The desserts were probably the only thing I enjoyed, other than my salad. Everything I ordered I was disappointed with in some way or another :(
I will not be going again. Just a huge shit show.

Had the all you can eat lunch. The food was fresh and yummy and the service was fantastic. They have ample seating on the main floor and upstairs as well.

Got takeout. Horrible experience. Food came 2 hrs after we ordered even though we were in the dt core. Sushi was warm. Pineapple rice did not come with pineapple skin as advertised on the menu. Very disappointing. Would recommend pizza over spring rolls takeout anyday

fiancé and I went here for dinner tonight. we did the all you can eat. the food was ok, nothing special. had to wait for a table even though there was plenty free. the waitress kept bringing less food than we were ordering which was annoying. not a place id go out of my way to eat at, there is way better all you can eat sushi elsewhere.

Great and friendly service! Good was fresh and yummy. I had sweet and sour chicken as well as some fried dumplings to start, both were great.

Sangria Not very
. I went for the new $ 20.00 prefix. Not so sure I will be going back.

This place is extremely slow, slow chefs, slow customer service, slow everything.
The waiters aren’t even that nice.
When the place is super busy they will pack on the rice onto to your sushi, so you get full off of their rice instead of the fish. I’ve told my waiter I was unpleased with how they made it and asked for them to not do that.
He came with another platter and it was made exactly the same. Nice.
I’ve been to MANY Spring Rolls locations, and it’s always hit or miss, usually just MISS. I’ve been giving this place too many chances. Don’t go here. You’ll regret it. The décor is nice, but let me give you some advice. Run. There are so many other authentic sushi places in Toronto, trust me, this place isn’t it.

Very disappointing experience.
On our way to see a show at the Panasonic Theatre, we opted for this restaurant as it was very close to the venue, plus I’ve been to other Spring Rolls locations and have never had any issues.
I made reservations for 8 ppl and when we arrived our table was ready. We were ferried up to the 2^nd floor, where larger groups are consigned to. We were, at that time, the only table up there. Shortly after we were seated, a larger group of at least 20 ppl arrived. Realizing that if they ordered before us our food would take ages to come out, we asked the waiter if we could order (plus we had to get to the theatre for 7:30pm). He took our selections and rather than punching it in, went to the larger group and took their order as well. By the time our order was punched in, it was 15 minutes after we had placed it, as he had to explain several dishes to the other table. We ordered our food at 6:20pm…it didn’t come out until well after 7pm.
As you guessed, the larger groups food came out first… we were left waiting while items were placed on their tables and our server focused all his energies on running up and down the stairs to bring up their food. He kept telling us that our food «would be arriving shortly», but we were virtually ignored, with an empty bottle of wine, empty glasses and empty appetizer plate still on our table.
When our meals did arrive, the food was blah. It had evidently been prepared at the same time as the other tables and sat on a counter waiting to be brought up. One persons meal was cold… not left on the counter cold, but just came out of a fridge cold. Another’s was luke warm (Mongolian beef), my meal was ok to eat, but would have tasted much better had it been hot (I had cashew chicken, which I’ve had at other Spring Rolls and it is usually piping hot… and here it was essence of chicken, with lots of veggies). One of our group had sweet potatoe fries, that was mixed with kimchi and cheese… she said it was amazing and from speaking to others, was the only meal that tasted good. 7 people out of 8 not happy with their food quality does not a great impression make. Even the person who had a Caesar Salad said it was awful.
To be fair, our server was working his ass off… he went from an empty section, to having 28 people (all within the span of 10 minutes), and someone did eventually come to help him… but it definitely impacted our visit.
Based on this experience, I might be willing to give them another try, but most likely would go somewhere else if in the area.

I go here often. Great AYCE place. Huge variety of sushi and hot food. Great service and awesome waitresses! I just love going. great environment and food tastes good. Although it doesn’t seem to be authentic Asian food it still does its best. It’s like Asian fusion. Just made by non Asians.

been there twice and now i’m done!
too expensive for my taste, i mean paying 24 box for a AYCE is not m type (of way)
The service was sooo slow, at the end you don’t even want to eat anymore. i had my terikayi and pad thai served after my dessert… i mean WUT REALLY?
the sushi are ok not specials tho.
i had a crush for the cheese dumpling, i took 4 (or 6, i might be in denial) but it was the only thing that i really like
and how about this AYCE which close at 2:45! i mean if you end it at least try to be fast in you orders, we came at around 2:30/1pm and i had this feeling that i couldn’t fill full my craving because of this ultimate. of course i don’t want to sleep there till night but still tho!

it might just be my taste, but I’ve pretty much always regretted coming here to eat. all their food is just wayyyyyy to sweet/​salty. I can usually finish a few bites feeling okay, but a little less than halfway I would feel that the flavor is way too overwhelming.
again, it could just be me. but I’ve come here a few times hoping each time I would pick something better or I would be different, but I’m always disappointed. I feel a little more strongly about this because each time, the people I come with feel the same way.
I’m really confused because it seems like they’re always busy. so surely some people must like it. it totally baffles me though. all I know is that I won’t be coming back anytime soon.

I’m going to write this review in the same manner as my experience here — lacklustre.
The service was okay, can’t complain. I honestly don’t know why they are using those weird hard plasticky BPA infested glasses.
The pad thai was the worst I’ve ever had the misfortune to experience. Some of the noodles were glooped together like it was melted. A few sad peanuts, sad pieces of egg, and some sad shrimp. The dish was sad and I was sad eating it. I packed most of it to go and I ate it at home doused in Sriracha sauce.
This is a sad review for a disappointing meal.

If you want to try many dishes, All You Can Eat Menu (AYCE) is for you. The portions are smaller and not all the items from regular menu are included but you get the idea if Spring Rolls is for you or not. As for me — I probbaly won’t come back.
The service was good, even though noone cared if we liked the food or not. We had to send back couple of dishes and noone asked what was wrong, why we did not like it.
Dishes that I liked:
Sweet potato fries were really good, mixed with kimchi (delicious), cheese and mayo. Full of calories but great dish.
Mango salad and Wonton soup were good. Chicken with ginger and broccoli was very flavourful, as well. And I really liked their Spicy Ginger Tea with Honey, even though I have to admit it was way too sweet for my taste. And boy, it really is spicy. But it is not easy to find a place with interesting, unique teas (I’m getting tired or regular green or black teas that most restaurants offer).
As for the dishes that I did not like:
Pad Thai Noodles were so-​so. I usually love Pad Thai (PF Changs or most Thai restaurants offer delicious Pad Thai, but this one was a dissaster). I actually sent it back to the kitchen. I think it was the type of noodles they used that I did not like. I am not sure, it just didn’t feel right. (They still charged me for the dish, even though I sent it back).
Lots of fried dishes, bright red coloring for some chicken dishes, including the Pad Thai I mentioned. There was a dish with beef «on a bed of spinach» — but there was no spinach (from AYCE menu). The manager explained that this dish does not come with spinach. Hmmm, okay. so why is it called «on a bed of spinach»?
I was looking forward to try their desserts but it was dissapointing.
Pumpkin Crème Brule came very watery and small. I was wondering if its a mini version from AYCE menu but no, it was actual size and costs $ 5. My friend had the same dessert and she did not like it either. It was just very sugary and watery.
I also tried their Mini Mousse. but was not impressed again. I wonder if I’m way too picky or the food is just very average.
Note: If you go as a group and only one person wants to order from AYCE menu — it is not possible. The manager explained that everybody has to order AYCE at the table. That is just ridiculous! So should he/​she sit at the table next to us, alone?!

Hmm… what to say about this place?
Well, five of us ate here this past Saturday. Two of us had their All-​You-​Can-​Eat menu while the other three ordered items off the menu.
FOOD
For those that ordered off the menu, they enjoyed their dishes.
Myself, I did the AYCE and tried their sushi items which I found a bit disappointing. The sushi rolls had a bit too much rice and the sashimi was a bit small (though of course you can order as much as you want). The other dishes I tried were pretty average (not bad but not great).
SERVICE
Service was, shall we say, slow as we had to wait often to reorder items for the AYCE and it took a while to get our bill and pay. This may be a staffing issue as the server was always running around and the place isn’t that big.
CHECK-​IN BONUS?
When we went, there was a ‘Check-​in’ bonus offer where if four people ordered the AYCE can eat menu, then one of the four ate for free. We were advised that this was an old promotion and no longer valid. Apparently the manager was going to contact their IT person to have it removed. The manager apologized and was willing to offer us a discount or coupon for a future meal but he seemed to disappear when it came time to pay our bill.
–
Anyhow, they have a large varied menu and based on the majority of people I was with, they seemed to enjoy their meal. For my tastes though, if I was in the neighbourhood, I wouldn’t return a second time.

if i could i would rate this a ⁰⁄₅ this place really turned me off to asian fusion resturants. i would never go back.
the mixture of flavors are disgusting, even the drinks are disgusting
would not recommend

We tried this place when visiting Toronto since it was close to our hotel. The place itself is pretty nice, trendy and good vibe. I got seating by the window so we could keep our 4 yr old busy looking out at the busy city .
We had to wait over 20 mins for service. We were about to walk away when the manager came and took our order and was saying how shorts staffed he is. My review is a 3 due to lack of service.
Drinks– we ordered the white sangria which was so so and nothing to rave about.
Food– we ordered beef fried rice, beef pad thai, pork noodles, tom yum soup
The presentation of the food was quite nice. The pad thai and the beef fried rice is a 4. The rest were average.

I love this place. There are a few rude servers during lunch time, but it doesn’t really ruin the experience. The best part is the variety, just like the Spring Rolls near Square One.
Sushi is decent, dim sum is pretty good and thai food is decent.
Must tries:
–Triple Cheese Dumplings
–Breaded Torpedo Shrimp
–The hao gow.
–Deep fried New York cheesecake (mmmm! and I usually don’t like sweets!)
Awesome, awesome place. thank you Spring Rolls for being AYCE and «screw you» for being AYCE — I need to lose weight!!!

I came to Spring Rolls with only one ambition in mind… to tackle there AYCE Dim Sum Dinner Menu.
Monday to Thursday it’s $ 22.99 But Friday to Sunday it’s $ 24.99
The AYCE menu includes basically almost everything that’s on there regular menu: an array of soups, salads, dim sum, appetizers, Wok Dishes, Noodles, Rice, Curries, Sushi, Sashimi, & Handrolls. A very extensive menu indeed!
Since I came on a Tuesday I decided to upgrade to the Premium Menu… which is only $ 3.00 more and includes desserts and chef specials.
We were seated in a cozy booth in the corner. Our waiter took our drink orders
Green tea of course and gave us time to look over the vast selection of goodies! Our waiter was very funny and attentive and gave us plenty of time between «rounds» of orders as he put it so we were able to pace ourselves quite nicely.
This is what we ordered that evening
Mango Salad — refreshing topped with roasted cashews
Sea Salted Edamame — came out still steaming with the right amount of salt to bring out the flavour
Siu Mai — juicy & plump served w/​a sriracha & mustard dipping sauce
Crispy Wontons — basically deep fried siu mai
Japanese Gyoza — pork filling
Shrimp and Vegetable Tempura — Too oily
Triple Cheese Dumplings — A must try! Basically a deep fried wonton with a cream cheese filling w/​raspberry jam for dipping really delicious combo ⁵⁄₅
Spicy Salmon Roll –very slight amount of heat
General Tao Chicken — my favourite chicken dish
Kung Pao Chicken — another great chicken dish
Malaysian Spicy Fried Rice — my favorite rice dish, good amount of heat!
Green Tea Ice Cream
White Chocolate & Raspberry Cake — a bit too sweet for me
Chocolate Mousse Cake — Creamy Chocolatey Goodness
Red Velvet Cupcake — Soo moist w/​silky cream cheese icing and white chocolate curls ⁵⁄₅ quite possibly one of the best cupcakes ever!
Overall a delicious coma inducing feast! Portion sizes of the dishes are the perfect size so you can sample many different things without being wasteful. Food comes out hot and quick so that you can finish eating your first round and then order your second round while giving you enough time to digest. Definitely pay the $ 3 bucks extra for the premium menu the desserts alone make it worth it!
