On my trip to Japan, one of my to do was get the fluffy pancakes. Unfortunately we ran out of time, so when I was in Toronto it was highly recommended for me to try these fluffy Japanese style pancakes. Were they must have? No, but were they good? Yes. I was expecting a lot more, at the end of the day they are just super fluffy pancakes, but pancakes none the less. The toppings makes it different and here the best one was the creme brûlée option. The other two were ok and their drinks were average. It does take a long time for them to come out as they are made fresh so expect a wait. read more

I think these are some of the best fluffy Japanese pancakes in the city! I've been coming here since my undergrad days, and it's just as good as I remember! The pancakes are soft, and incredibly fluffy (reminds me of Uncle Tetsu's cheesecake). Tons of diverse and fun toppings, from sweet to savory, although when we came they didn't have matcha flavour :( The space is rather small but is still very cosy. The service was quick and efficient and the staff were nice, so I have no complaints on my end and it deserves to be my solid fave in the Annex. read more

My second time here and I absolutely love their fluffy, souffle pancakes. The matcha tiramisu one is my favourite. The savoury ones fall flat in comparison but are still pretty darn good. Don't sleep on the lattes - so many different flavours to pick from. read more

If you're a fan of Japanese pancakes, Fuwa Fuwa is the place to go. As soon as you walk in, the strong smell of butter hits you, setting the stage for what's about to come. I tried the Signature Pancake, which came with fresh blueberries, banana, strawberries, and a generous dollop of whipped cream. The pancakes were incredibly fluffy, light, and not too sweet. The fresh fruit topping added a nice burst of freshness, complementing the pancakes without overpowering them. There's also a self-serve water station, which is a nice touch for staying refreshed while you enjoy your meal. Definitely a treat, as their pancakes are a bit pricey, but if you're after an authentic Japanese pancake experience, Fuwa Fuwa definitely delivers. read more

Unfortunately for Fuwa, Jello beat them to the Watch it Wiggle, See it Jiggle jingle because that would be the perfect way to market these pancakes. Just watch my video (or others) to see what I mean. Once you get past the novelty of these jiggly pancakes, you will find out that they are not like pancakes in the U.S. they are much more eggy tasting and are nowhere as sweet as I am used to in the U.S. So do not come here expecting pancakes and you will not be disappointed. Even the white chocolate or the syrup that come with the Fruit Forest are very sweet. So these were the perfect "pancakes" for my wife. If I come back, I will bring a bottle of Canadian maple syrup, and I will be very happy! As noted by others, they take a while to make so be patient. I also got the salted caramel latte, which is super sweet. Cathie got the sesame latte, which was very sesame forward and not very sweet, which again, was perfect for Cathie. read more

Used to go here a ton. Recently, my family and I have been denied service because they are apparently "closed". What I mean by that is, the worker(s) says that they are closed when it is way earlier than 8:30/9/10pm (the closing times shown on Google). Mind you, this has happened more than once (on different days of the week) and sometimes involving multiple customers still seated and eating. Lights are always bright and signage says "open" until the worker switches it after denying us service. read more

I've been wanting to try Japanese pancakes for so long and im so happy these were my first. I ordered the Nutella banana pancakes and it took a little bit to be made but they were well worth the wait! The place also had really nice ambiance. I would 100% be a regular here if I lived in Toronto. As a breakfast food lover I appreciate how they are open all day long. Highly recommend! read more

I came to Fuwa Fuwa not knowing what souffle pancakes were and after trying a taste of it, I had to go back another time. The interior is small, but there are enough seats for approximately 20 ppl. The interior was well lit and was cleaned. The pancakes were made quite fast. From ordering to the delivery of the pancakes took around 10 minutes. The pancakes were so fluffy and delicious. My favorite so far was the creme brulee since it had ice cream which added another aspect to it. I also tried the tiramisu, the regular, and the matcha too. All were equally yummy. I wished i had more time in toronto to try the rest of the flavors. read more

This eatery is in the heart of The Annex. It was voted in the top 10 of places to eat and I understand why. This innocuous looking eatery houses the lightest and fluffiest pancakes you will find. The ladies make it fresh, including their cream that delicately finishes their Fuwa Fuwa Signature pancakes, which is what I ordered. It's shockingly very filling so I was so happy I had shared it with my husband. They also have an espresso machine and they can pull a fabulous latte. They also have cups and a water station should you want water. The service was wonderful as they take the tube to explain anything about their pancakes. It's a cozy place and the music is loud. It was hard to hear my husband as he sat opposite of me so we literally had to text each other as to how delicious the pancakes are. Definitely a must go to and try when in town. read more

Service was excellent, the workers were so friendly and welcoming. A little let down by the pancakes though. It just tasted like regular pancakes dowsed in cream. Tasted good but nothing special. read more

A great spot for desserts. I've had the takeout version and prefer doing dine-in instead as it tastes much better when it's fresh and on a plate. Matcha Tiramisu: The pancakes are light and fluffy. Lots of matcha drizzle and mostly taste the matcha rather than tiramisu but was still delicious. Note that you have to pay at the front counter before you place a seat. It's a bit more on the casual side for service and tight in space, the seating will get filled up quickly. Overall, I had a great experience at this Fuwa Fuwa location! read more

Honestly the best soufflé pancakes I have ever had. We got the tiramisu pancake and the matcha red bean pancake. They were made to order so it did take some time to get the food. But it was 100% worth it! They were so fluffy, warm, and just perfect!! I would recommend this to everyone! I went right when they opened so I did not have to wait for seating. I can see it getting busy because the inside was a bit small. read more

We've wanted to try soufflé pancakes since they went viral, and we were so excited to try them at Fuwa Fuwa! The shop was so cute. There were so many options for pancakes and drinks, and we really want to go back and try more. We got the tiramisu pancakes to split, and they truly are as good as they look-- impossibly fluffy and a perfect tiramisu flavor. This is a must try! -@cophiescrumbs on insta read more

Extremely small location. You order at the cashier, serve yourself water and get your own utensils. There's basically no table service. I went in on a weekend late in the afternoon. The cashier was kind. Our food took a bit of while to come out. I ordered the matcha white chocolate pancakes. They were extremely soft and airy. The matcha sauce was okay, the white chocolate was also okay. My boyfriend got the tiramisu pancakes. The tiramisu pancakes have a very strong coffee taste. Both pancakes have a strong eggy flavour to them. For drinks, he got the matcha espresso and I got the mango latte. The mango latte was okay- but it's basically just mango jam with milk. The total came out to around $50. I left feeling okay, not full but alright. read more

Excellent Japanese pancakes. Think light, airy and fluffy. Go for the light toppings because you don't want to saturate the airiness of these babies with heavy sugary syrups. We order the Signature Pancake's which comes with berries, bananas and cream. Check-in with Yelp and you'll get a scooped of ice cream. We did! Place your order at the counter, grab a seat and place your number stand on the table. Then wait because these are made to order fresh. Counter seating and table seating is available but is limited. These are good. If you're a fan or haven't tried, Fuwa Fuwa makes damn good ones. read more

Got a BOGO crepe deal so came here on an afternoon and got a blueberry crepe while my brother got the strawberry sakura crepe. The crepes were good but nothing special - had a scoop of ice cream and sauce on the top with fresh fruit. The crepe had a hint of ?cinnamon and was made to order. I finished my plate but my brother did not enjoy the crepe. Only reason why I didn't give Fuwa Fuwa a higher rating was because of the okay service and the cleanliness of the store. There were questionable food handling practices (saw one of the workers making someone's crepe and holding a banana with his bare hands without gloves), dropping napkins on the floor and putting them back on the counter, touching utensils where they contact food, a pitcher with mango liquid running down the sides, and staff food and drinks near the food preparation area. Thus I will not return for these reasons. read more

Soufflé pancakes ftw!! Eeek. I came just for those jiggly soufflé pancakes. They were so rich!! So creamy, so filling and super jiggly. This was the place that got my family to banned me from picking more pancakes! I've had so many pancakes on this visit: none were Japanese pancakes though. I usually prefer waffles over pancakes, unless they are Japanese soufflé pancakes. Came here for dinner: it's a good half hour walk from my hotel Park Hyatt Toronto. Thank god for that. It helps after with burning some of the calories off. Place is small, cute but smoky. They can use a vent! Or a fan. Very crispy inside from all the cooking. The girls here are super sweet: don't speak much English but super sweet. I tried their matcha tiramisu and the fruit forest ( original with fruits). I was told that it'll take 20 minutes and so it did. They were folding in all the egg fluffs! They were more than ok with me filming but the smoke prevented me from filing too much in the small kitchen. A good 25 minutes later: massive, gorgeous, super jiggly pancakes were on my table. Yummm!! Matcha tiramisu: delicious! Came with matcha sauce on the side, I didn't use it. So fluffy! Very eggy too. I wonder how many eggs were in each? The fruit forest: so many different fruit! Yummm. Came with syrup: I don't use syrup and I didn't need to. I couldn't finish any! But I was also very full after one pancake. Plan was to food hop around but I was too full. Such a fun meal though. The coffee/ drinks. They were the thumbs down of this meal. I got their ice latte ( very weak, so much milk) and mango drink. Very sweet! Skip both. Also tried their delicious strawberry ice cream. That was yummm! Overall, fun and very filling meal. Next time, I'll order 1! read more

This is a small Japanese fluffy soufflé pancake place. We walked passed it and did not even noticed it. Fuwa means fluffy in Japanese. There were so many to choose from, all are sweet ones. I decided on the Matcha Red Bean one. Very soft and melt in your mouth pancake. There are also sweet drinks on the menu. I opted for hot green tea. Good dessert place, near University of Toronto. read more

Fuwa Fuwa makes the best Japanese Pancakes! These are fluffy! They are made to order once you go into the store. All of the toppings go with it. They are so jiggly when ready to eat. They are a bit slow on doing them, but it's worth the wait. There is definitely a technique on doing these, the batter, mixing in more ingredients, and cooking them. There is a science to this! When I paid in cash, they asked if I could get the exact amount. They didn't have any change. they said the majority of the customers pay with credit card. It seemed like they hadn't seen coins or change in their life! Weird way of operating their business. If you want to grow maybe ensure that your clients are able to pay in several forms of payment. read more

This was my first time trying fuwa fuwa pancakes and I am so happy I came here! One of the employees cleared off a table for me to sit on (they did a great job keeping the place clean), and the atmosphere was so humble. Once I got my Fruit Festival I was so happy! It looked cute! It looked airy, took a bite and was in pancake heaven! The fruits complimented with the cream and the pancake so well, the syrup was divine (honestly the syrup so much better than any place I've had in the states), and I was just so happy! I would def go again and bring my friends along with me!! Thank you again! read more

Came on a Saturday a little after open and there was no wait to be seated. Expected wait for pancakes as they are made to order. Super fluffy soufflé pancakes! Got matcha white chocolate and creme brûlée which both were delicious. Had the perfect amount of sweetness. I prefer the crunch from the brûléed sugar. Yuzu soda was refreshing. Would prefer sesame latte sweeter. The staff also super nice! read more

It's hard to find a dessert spot in Toronto after 6/7pm .. luckily this place stays open till late..and for that .. 5 stars! So versatile, can go from breakfast, brunch to anytime dessert, this is your spot. Always a great time at Fuwa Fuwa. Their pancakes are so soft and fluffy. I tried their matcha cake more recently and oh my, all matcha cravings satisfied! The service is also super fast. They have a few tables for dine in. We came here after dinner to grab some dessert and the place was mostly empty. I'll definitely be back to try more of their non pancake desserts! read more

We were visiting town and I was in the mood for something different for breakfast. I googled a few options and Fuwa caught my eye. We jumped on the metro and arrived shortly after they opened around noon. We were greeted immediately. We placed an order at the counter and then we were told to grab a seat. They were not too busy. We waited about 15 minutes for our order and then it came out. We had ordered the blueberry lemon pancakes served with a scoop of ice cream. The plate looked incredible and we could not wait to dive in. The fluffiness of the pancake was incredible. It was not dense at all and had an amazing texture. The lemons had caramelized sugar on them and they really complimented the blueberries well. The scoop of ice cream was a perfect side for this dish. Overall, we really enjoyed our visit. The pancakes were amazing and the service was great. Awesome spot that we would highly recommend. read more

Oh my goodness, some of THE best Japanese soufflé pancakes I've ever had!! I'm obsessed with soufflé pancakes and whenever I travel always look for a place nearby that has them. They can be very difficult to find; especially good ones. We came twice, once on a Sunday morning and then on a Monday afternoon. Both times they weren't too busy and the pancakes took about 15-20 minutes. The staff were friendly and the place was super cute and kind of tucked away. I will be coming here anytime I'm in the Toronto area. 10/10. read more

My friend and I wanted to relive our memories in Hong Kong when we had Japanese fluffy pancakes there. We were so excited to come here on a hot Monday afternoon to enjoy the fluffy pancakes again! We ordered at the counter first and then took a seat by the middle area (my friend said the cool air from the AC was great~). We ordered two Fuwa Fuwa iced lattes and a Tiramisu pancake. Thankfully, our drinks came really fast, our iced lattes helped us to quench our thirst. As the other Yelpers mentioned, water is not served for free. So you need to purchase a drink. Fuwa Fuwa iced latte- refreshing, cool, a bit strong (not really sweet). I liked that there was less ice. Tiramisu pancake- There were two pancakes with some fruits and came with a sauce on the side. The top one was much more fluffier than the bottom one (it was quite flat). They were still good, each piece melted in our mouths....yum! If you have a bigger appetite, you can order one for yourself to eat (and not share, haha)! The servers are friendly and the place is cozy! A good place to come to eat/drink and have a conversation~ Come to Fuwa Fuwa to have a good time! read more

I've been to this place twice and got the Fuwa Fuwa Signature ($13.75) and the Tiramisu Pancake ($15.95). The pancake itself is very fluffy and not overly sweet. The cream on the signature pancake is not too heavy and goes well with the fruit. The tiramisu pancake is very similar, except it has less fruits and there is a tiramisu flavored cream. Overall, quite good. The pancakes do take a while to cook and there is a sign warning customers that the pancakes are made fresh to order and can take around 20 - 25 minutes. The actual store is quite small - there's maybe 3 tables and some bar seating. read more

Extremely pretty pancake presentation for the raspberry banana pancakes. However, the food looked much better than it tasted.

Worth a try, but would not come back. read more

i get it, who doesn't like pancake, especially when it is so fluffy, so soft and has whipped cream and fruits all over it. i understand the hype of japanese pancakes and i personlly love the trend too but this location simply just disappoints. 1. the WAIT for 1 pancake dish is outrageous, it is a small shop, and and they dont even sit that many people, but we waited for almost 40 mins for ours to come 2. they charge sooooooo much for their mediocre drinks, there was a mango milk drink, tbh it was the most disgusting drink I have had recently, it has extremely sweet and artificial mango puree, with just milk, and it was very expensive. i couldnt even took a 2nd sip, the artificial taste burns my throat. if you know the pancake take a long time, why don't you get a 2nd pancake maker? there were many people behind the counter, you shouldn't have trouble making more in one batch. i was there for a short sweet stop then it took me longer than eating some 3 course dinner, really shouldn't happen. will not come back. read more

Fluffy fluffy is exactly how you can describe their soufflé pancake. They are so light, bouncy, and airy. I tried the original flavor, soufflé pancake, and blueberry cheese pancake. Their pancake is not sweet, so with the original flavor, they go with maple syrup and whipped cream, a light dessert that you can go with. Blueberry cheese pancake, is really special. Going with blueberry jam and cheese inside the pancake. They are in a really good match. The environment here is really nice. You can spend your tea time with friends here. But bear in mind, that the pancake is freshly made after you have ordered. Be prepared to wait for around 20 mins. Good food worth to wait right? read more

Heard from friends that Fuwa Fuwa is supposed to be the best spot for soufflé pancakes. So went to try it out! There were a few tables in the store so we took a seat: It was about 20 minute wait for our matcha tiramisu and matcha red bean pancakes. We also had the mango soda and strawberry soda (which was just fruit juice mixed with Sprite). Overly sweet for me so don't think I would order that again. As for the pancakes - really awesome presentation. However, I found the taste was mediocre. The matcha sauce was average but the pancakes were really heavy and rich with the whipped cream on top. Had I known there was going to be whipped cream I would have asked to opt out. It's good enough with matcha sauce. The strawberries and raspberries were a nice touch though as the acidity helped counter all the sweet. Having said that, this is a really filling dessert! This basically replaced dinner for me lol. All in all, a decent spot for dessert. read more

My nieces wanted to try these and each came to visit on separate weekends, so I got to try these TWICE! The first time, I wanted the mango, but it was still the last days of May, so they didn't have it. I got the original instead, which comes topped with cream, blueberries and strawberries. The texture and flavour surprised me at first - I thought the pancakes themselves would be sweet, but the sweetness was just in the berries and a touch in the cream. Texture is so nice. We had to wait a while on our first visit - the small place was full and it takes a while to make these and it looks like they've just got 2 hotplates going). On my second visit, they had the mango! This was delicious - the cream topper was sauced over in a delicate mango sauce and a plentiful cubed mango half finished the plate, plus a half kiwi :) My niece got the raspberry with caramelized banana and loved it. It's not inexpensive - $14-15 for each plate plus tax and tip - but it's a labour to make and there's plenty of real fruit. Treat yourself! read more

No one can say no to fluffy pancakes. I think the pancakes are generally good but need to be shared with at least one more person.

I was super excited to try this place! It is a small place and limited seating. If there is no seatings available and want to wait, they will have you leave your name and number and they will call you when a seat opens up. That's what I did. The sign on the counter said one order per person so I assume, you can't just share one order. Service was good and fast. All the pancakes are made fresh! It taste best when it is still hot and fresh! I ordered the tiramisu and it was so good! They give you the espresso drizzle on the side and you pour it on the pancake yourself. The pancake was so fluffy and tasty! I will come back and try something else next time! read more
