Came here several times and always had really good food and service. Yes, you do have to wait 30 min to be seated. They are packed because their food is amazing. Their wine, cocktails and bubble tea was excellent. The food is always fresh and cooked perfectly. I always get a seat facing the Yonge and Dundas square while I enjoy my dinner. It is overpriced for ayce because of the location but it's definitely worth it. It's approximately $35-$40 per person with tax. read more

Great food... friendly staff, and great idea to let the customer use an iPad to place the orders. Food came quickly after being ordered, but some of the things we ordered never arrived... however, the waiters, waitresses and even the manager, tried as hard as they could to please the customer, and they did a great job. I'll be returning for sure, to try many more different dishes that I couldn't order because I was already full. read more

Some of the best! The ipad ordering system makes it easy to find what we want (the pictures are very helpful). The last time I went, there was a 15-minute wait to be seated (the place was PACKED). Still, once the waitress sent in the order, it was less than 20 minutes before the first sets of food rolled in. Amazingly fast, delicious food! Love the salad, miso, egg sashimi, beef and chicken teriyaki, garlic beef...really almost anything I tried. But on the pricier side for AYCE but definitely worth it! read more

Not really the best to be honest. Came here on easter 420 and it wasnt really that busy. There are alot of girls here for some reason but it wasnt crowded at lunch. I notice they dont have my favourite original tuna fish. The sushi wasnt the best. Lots of rice compared to fish so i guess they want you to leave with a belly full of rice. Price wasnt the best but I guess you get an ipad to play with while youre there.....thats about it. nothing special. Id find somewhere else to go for my money especially downtown. read more

Was totally went downhill in a few short months. Waiters are extremely busy and have terrible service. One guy spilt hot water all over my side and didnt even do anything. read more

Located right in the center of Yonge and Dundas square, Spring Sushi is convenient and great for people who consider cucumber rolls as sushi. Like all AYCE sushi places in Toronto, Spring sushi is just as mediocre as everywhere else... the only novelty is you can order your sushi off an Ipad,.. ouuuuu.(FYI, i was being sarcastic) Sashimi peices are well presented, though some taste like it's been previously thawed. Sushi pieces were falling apart, usually stuffed with too much rice. variety is good, thai food available.. which is why most people prefer ayce over a la carte anyway right?? Service is quick cus you need to order yoursel. But other than that, food quality is nothing more than an OK. For 25$ per person before tax and tips, that money could be better spent elsewhere. read more

There's more variety compared to the other AYCE places I've been to. Vegas rolls are my favourite. I really like most of there vegetarian foods. Very fresh and tasty. Lots of sushi to choose from and there's a couple I like depending on the type of meat in it. The teriyaki stuff and skewers is good too. Dumplings and spring rolls are okay. Basically everything that isn't sushi isn't that much flavourful as it could be. As for dessert, I get either one of the ice cream flavours with fried banana. So good! Service is very quick. Tip: take the lemon out of your water to get more bang for your buck. read more

If I only could give ZERO... Staff/servers are very rude and condescending. Food is below expectation. If you want to have better food and experience, I would definitely recommend you guys go somewhere else. Not worth your 30 bucks. read more

Saw a white hair with oil follicle in my food. Told the waiter and he didn't do anything. Overpriced mediocre food. Fast service and a host that just keeps fixing her hair instead of being attentive. read more

Great food. Terrific ordering experience, great views and friendly staff. Location hard to beat. The place still feels very new. Larger variety than a typical AYCE with good meat and Thai dishes in addition to creative sushi staples. We went for a dinner ($25 pp with discounts for students, seniors and kids) and didn't regret. read more

I came not sure exactly what to expect, but as the evening went I became pleasantly surprised. This AYCE is set atop as a rooftop restaurant on Dundas Square and I was overlooking the main square. The food is ordered on tablets with many choices, very friendly staff, and the food was served amazingly fast. With all the choice and speed of the food, I am happy to say - quality did not suffer. The dishes are tasty and presentation nicely done. A place I will definitely revisit! read more

This has to be one of my favourite AYCE sushi restaurants in the city! The sushi is fresh and comes to the table within minutes of ordering. For the amount of people that can dine in this restaurant, the food and service is pretty quick. The one thing that keeps me from frequenting more is that it does cost about 10 dollars more for the dinner/lunch than most AYCE sushi restaurants. The view from the windows over y&d square is also a sight to see, making the dining experience that much more enjoyable if you do get to sit there. read more

Went here last week with a friend last Friday night for dinner. It was surprisingly half full only while the surrounding resturants were packed with people waiting in line. My friend and I were debating about choosing to eat buffet at $25 or à la carte. We opted for the menu instead and were very glad we did. The food was mediocre and the portions were decent, but not huge. If you're looking for good sushi, I woud skip this place. The service was very good and attentive. read more

More on the expensive side. Average sushi. I guess you pay for the location. Average customer service. Always busy. read more

Coming from the states I wasn't sure about this place. Price was on the cheaper side of sushi (compared to the states) so I was a bit worried about all you can eat. I was completely wrong! For the price and the amount of time you get, you have to be a sushi snob to give it less than 4 stars. The food came quickly, the taste was on point and the options were plentiful. Our server was awesome, he chatted with us and kept us fed. I am leaving here a very satisfied customer. read more

It is my favorite sushi restaurant in Toronto. The service is quick, waiting time is not long compare with some other places

Spring Sushi is one of the best AYCE sushi places I've been to. I came here on a date with my girlfriend for dinner and we both loved it. The food is great for AYCE sushi. You have a great variety and it's all on the iPad menu for you to see. I had no complaints about the food at all. I thought service was great. A server would come within a minute of us setting our order on the iPad. Food was delivered withing 5-15 minutes, which I thought was amazing. The servers were very friendly as well. I've read some reviews saying the service was horrible but I had no problems at all, and it was a relatively busy night. I thought this place had a great atmosphere. It was on the louder side (as all AYCE places are) but it wasn't that bad. It's also situated very nicely on Yonge and Dundas, perfect for a movie or mall date. Overall, I had a great time here and I'd like to go again sometime. The price is slightly steep but it's not too bad. I'd give my experience here an 8/10 read more

++WHY? I went here for my birthday a couple of weeks ago with my friends. We randomly decided to go here not planning where to go. Everyone wanted sushi, so I said, hey. Why not give it a try? ++FOOD? The cooked food was good. I liked the tempuras, the grilled meats, and fried things. The sushi however, especially the maki's were not that great. The filling to rice ratio is just wow. Skimpage on the fillings of the sushi much! I liked the dragon rolls though, and the sashimi. Spring Rolls makes their sushi lie as if you're ordering ala carte, but here... no. The sushi definitely could've been better. Typical All you can eat sushi... Quality is crap, but plenty of food. ++SERVICE? The whole iPad thing was cute and very interactive. I loved it and thought it was real fun having to order that way. It prevents any confusion and possible verbal communication issues. The servers were somewhat attentive and catered to us fine. ++ATMOSPHERE? It looks great, modern, sleek. The view of touristy Dundas Square at night looks great. ++BONUS? It was my birthday that night and I did not know that they give free birthday cakes to tables celebrating birthdays, AHHHH they did a great job surprising me with that MANGO MOOSE cake, it definitely was one of those fun moments that I wish were caught on tape. The memories were definitely what made this place good. The food? Not so much. I didn't have to pay for my bill since it was my birthday, which made it even better. I would've given this restaurant and my dining experience here 2 STARS**, but I'll give the place 3 STARS*** instead. The iPad, the Birthday cake, and the memories that I will remember forever definitely earned them that extra star. xoxoxoxo ps. if you want a free cake on your birthday, come here with four or more of your friends. It's about $25 per person, but if you're looking for a slightly better quality and do not care so much about the free cake, go to Springrolls instead. It's much better IMHO. read more

It's my go-to ayce sushi place downtown. I love ordering food from the iPad and that there's a picture for every item - makes it easier especially with groups. The food is good (for ayce) and the servers are good - I like how they work as a team to make things more efficient instead of only serving a specific area. My only complaint is that they have gone a smidge downhill since when they first opened and they're not great at holding reservations as I had to wait more than half an hour for a table, even though we had a reservation. read more

After a lot of iffy reviews, my partner and I decided to try this place out. When going for all you can eat sushi, I don't necessarily expect the best quality in the world. The sushi was very nicely assembled, there was a very very big selection of not just sushi, but other familiar Chinese, Thai and Japanese dishes. The atmosphere was clean and trendy, if not a little loud. Between a happy hour beer and the sushi, I felt I got well over my money's worth. read more

This happened yesterday, Thursday October 22nd 2015. My sister made a reservation for 8pm. My aunts and my cousin arrived at 7:55pm. The hostess, a petite young woman in a black pencil skirt and a lacy cropped tank top told them, "We're just waiting for a table to clear." There was a table nearby and no one was sitting there. It just hasn't been cleared or wiped yet. A few moments later, I arrive. My aunts tell me to ask the hostess what's going on. I approach her and she tells me, "We're just waiting for someone to clear the table." Two men arrive at the table and clear it. My sister arrives and we all sit in the waiting area, waiting to be seated. At this point, the table still hasn't been wiped and we haven't been seated. I look at my watch and its 8:14pm. What's the point of having a reservation if it's not going to be honored at its scheduled time? We approach the hostess and tell her we're leaving because we have been kept waiting too long. The hostess stares blankly and looks at the desk. She doesn't apologize. We're all pretty unimpressed by her behavior and leave. I have worked in the food service industry for 14 years. Perhaps the hostess was having a bad day, is new or maybe she just didn't care. She's human, she's allowed to have weaknesses but then I beg the question, is that the kind of employee you want representing your restaurant? Your restaurant lost a bill for 5 people yesterday and I will tell everyone I know about my experience. Maybe that will inspire your employee to be a bit more empathetic and helpful to the next customers she serves. I hope no one else receives the lack of service we did last night. read more

The atmosphere was nice but options were limited. The sushi and meat options tasted mediocre. The dessert was extremely limited. Went for all you can eat. Definitely not worth the money. read more

After convocation at UofT, my family and me ventured towards to the bustling city of Toronto. Eager for some delicious food to eat, we decided upon Spring Sushi, an upscale AYCE Japanese restaurant. Arriving in our nicely tailored suits, we quickly received our table. The decor is infused with Japanese culture, and modern day technology. On the walls are paintings of art. The lights are modernized with neon A waitress handed out an Ipad (used to order food items on the menu). As I perused the menu, searching for items that would satisfy my hunger, I noticed the limited variety of dishes. The menu consisted of sushi, grilled items, and noodle soup (and fried noodle). The grilled meats were a disappointment. The beef was tough, and stone rock. Every bite I struggled to bite and swallow the tiny piece. The maki and sashimi tasted fresh. Each roll was nicely wrapped. Despite my praise, the sushi isn't innovating or mind blowing. The Pad Thai was freshly cooked. The ingredients taste fresh. The noodles were nicely cooked. Alas, Spring Sushi is a disappointment, The menu lacks in variety, the grilled meats were tough but the Pad Thai was great. If hunger besets your mind, venture here for a quick bite. But do not expect high quality sushi or fine dining. read more

For the best value come at lunch time on a week day. Ryerson students get discount but make sure to bring your student id! Great place for large groups. Super quick service, and there are tons of options on the menu. Make sure to order a little at a time, some orders include several pieces. read more

I usually enjoy ordering food on IPads because there is a less of a chance for orders to be missed, yet this place somehow missed a third of our orders the first time around. Staff: They weren't really around for most of the meal, however if you call for someone on the IPad they come quickly. In addition, the food came faster than anywhere else I've been before. Definitely a great option if you are strapped for time but still want sushi. However, as I mentioned above, they missed stuff that we order. In my past experience, place with IPads just send their food off to the kitchen, but this place calls for a server to type who does something on the IPad. So maybe that's how it was missed. Ambience: We made reservations and seated on a long bench table. I don't understand why bench tables exist in a restaurant. I like being able to lean back. Also there's nowhere to hang your coats and being on a bench things have a greater chance of falling off. They were also playing club music in the background, so it was a little odd to me but whatever. Food: The food is not bad. Their tempura was pretty good. The sushi is a little haphazardly made (probably due to the speed it comes), so some fell apart once you grabbed them with chopsticks. They have a wide selection in some aspects (they had Thai dishes on their menu), but they were missing others (not a single ramen soup and they only had mango and green tea ice cream). It was a good AYCE option, but definitely a quantity over quality place. read more

It's average. For the location, price is decent especially for an AYCE. But for menu wise, there isn't too much that really sets it apart from other AYCE Japanese Restaurants. Rather limited menu options (~60 or so?) whereas other places like Matsuda have over 100 for the same price. Good part is that food comes quick - but this also questions how the food is made and when it was made. Submitted the food orders when arrived and food came within a minute - this include hot orders like pan fried items, or grilled items. Needless to say these items were dry and sorta stale. Would I return? Probably not. Was it worth the money? Maybe $15-20 at most. Save yourself the money and come during lunch when it's about $11 cheaper than dinner for the same menu items. read more

Food - not great. The sashimi did not taste fresh, particularly the salmon which was cut way too thich for my liking. The cooked foods were generally too salty or lacked flavor completely. If i were to describe the food in one word it would be: mush... Service - ayce sushi places generally dont have good service and this was no different. They dont wait on you with the same friendliness or comfort of a family resturant. They generally toss the food at you quickly and move on to other customers. Environment - the location and atomasphere is what earned 2+ stars. We sat by the window and the view was wonderfully looking at thr chaos that is dundas square and eaton center. The location is prime as it picks alot of mall shoppers or movie goers for customers. read more

We really enjoyed this sushi place! We are visiting Toronto and neither of us is the all you can eat type. We asked to sit at the bar to avoid the 20-30 minute wait, and got seated immediately. You have to do a la carte at the bar, but that was ideal for us. One of us is a vegetarian and she had the avocado cucumber roll and the yam tempura roll, both of which were excellent. I had the salmon avocado roll and the spicy salmon roll and really enjoyed both. The avocado in the salmon avocado roll was particularly enjoyable. We also shared the edamame which was fine but could use a bit more salt. It was served warm, which I like. Overall, very impressed and the price was right. read more

Decent AYCE sushi places that are of a fair price are pretty hard to come by outside of Toronto. Even more rare is the iPad ordering that these guys have. I think it helps with keeping their operations efficient as a waiter/waitress only needs to approve your order after you've selected what you want. There are also other items aside from the sushi (grilled/teppanyaki items, miso soup, tempura, appetizers). The service is pretty quick as you get served pretty quickly after you order. This place might be a little pricier due to its location, but overall I had a great experience. 17.99 Fri/Sat/Sun lunch. (16.99 on the weekdays). 90 minute time limit. read more

This place was really fun to eat at! I enjoyed their selection & everything that was fed to me. The ambiance was nice & the iPad made the ordering process very easy. I've gone as part of a large group & with just one other person. All of the times, the restaurant was accommodating & the waiters were nice. Even during extremely busy times, the food came out at considerable times. The only down side is that the AYCE is a bit pricey, but I mean it is right next to Eaton Center! So it's super convenient to eat at when you're hanging out around Dundas Square :) read more

Excellent food quality for a buffet. A lot of great options. Also, great atmosphere and customer service. A bit pricey but it's reasonable for the quality of experience you're getting. read more

1. This one is in Yonge Dundas, the busiest corner of whole Canada 2. Above it is cineplex Toronto downtown. 3. Price acceptable. An all-you-can eat style similar to BC sushi in Vancouver read more

Spring Sushi is my go-to place for AYCE sushi at lunch time. The food comes out very quickly and has always been as fresh as can be when I've visited. The service is fantastic and I have always had servers that were very attentive, professional and kind. Their sashimi slices are very thick and very tasty. The only downside for me is that the two special rolls that I really liked here are only on the dinner menu which I find is way too expensive for only minor changes on the dinner menu vs the lunch menu. There isn't much other than those two rolls that I would order so it's not worth the extra money to go for dinner. (Banana Shrimp Roll, mmmmmmmm!!!) Ordering off of the iPad is great and everything includes a photo so that you can see what you're getting. Try to order little by little though, as every roll and order comes on its own plate and your table can become full very quickly with minimal food. Some of my favourite things to order: Miso Soup Avocado & Cucumber Hand Roll Red Dragon Roll Tempura Shrimp Roll Spicy Salmon Roll Avocado Roll Jumbo Shrimp Tempura Deep Fried Spring Roll B.B.Q Beef Rib Chicken Fried Rice Sweet and Sour Pork Deep Fried Cheese Wonton Try the deep fried banana for desert! The raspberry sauce that comes with it is delicious! read more

Very disappointing, the price is too expensive for the food quality. First of all, there is no green tea or red bean ice cream on the menu. They only have ice cream bar, and it is only one per person, on the menu, they didn't say that is limited. Secondly, way too much rice on the sushi. I guess thats how they make the money. Lastly, the ipad service is stupid. you have to wait for someone to confirm it. Overall, not a good reataurant for sushi. read more

Food quality is inconsistent and often excessively greasy. Protein tends to be fatty. Service is extreme in that it's outstanding and attentive or you'll be ignored. read more

Ugh ordered a spicy salmon handroll and they gave me a handroll with only rice and tempura bits. Service was slow. Food kinda sucks. read more

Yesterday my friend and I went to Spring Sushi (yonge and dundas) for what could have been a lovely birthday lunch. To mark the occasion, I had ordered a cheesecake and the server brought a cheesecake and a complimentary birthday cake. We were served a rotten slice of cake!! - mold all over the bottom of the slice. After asking for the manager three times. She came over and said that the cake was fine with the exception of the ONE slice we had been served. She totally blamed it on the "cake supplier" and offered nothing but another slice of cake which we LOGICALLY and CATEGORICALLY refused! A few days after making a complaint. The restaurant offered a full refund for the meal that we've had on that day. The manager took the matter very seriously and was extremely apologetic and courteous. read more

When outdoor dining was open, the price was more on the expensive side and it didn't matter if it was the weekend or the weekday or if it was lunch or dinner. It was very yummy and I think the price can be justified by the food it serves and also the vibes. The view from the patio is really pretty even during the lunchtime. Will definitely go back when the pandemic is over. read more

5 stars for the food. Really a great selection and a good price for all you can eat. The service is a little bit cold, though. The location is great, of course. There is always food being brought to your table. It's good to stay away from the actual sushi, as that stuff tends to fill your stomach quicker. read more

Huge AYCE sushi space on the 3rd floor of yonge and dundas square. Sushi isn't the best quality here but it's decent for the price. The view is very nice and the ambiance in the restaurant is too. It's spacious and airy. If you have a large group, this place is perfect for that. Just remember, lunch ends at 3:30 so as long as you get a seat before then, you're fine. We were a party of 8 and they didn't charge us the automatic gratuities which many other places in Toronto would have for large groups (not sure if they just don't do that or maybe they only do so for more than 8 people?). They gave us 2 ipads to work with since our group was large, but note: the things you order on each ipad are not connected so you need to ensure that your party keeps track of it. They no longer serve ice cream for dessert, but instead have Melona bars. You're limited to 1 per person before they charge $1.99 for each additional one (which kinda sucks since it's an AYCE and you'd have been able to order as much ice cream as you'd want). There's free wifi so you can snap/IG your food if you want during your meal. It's a very convenient location in the downtown core for sushi if you aren't looking for anything very fancy. They do offer the trendy aburi/torched sushi for dinner, haven't tried that so I'm not sure how that compares to other AYCE joints that are known for those. read more
