So my friend and I are trying to find our go-to AYCE sushi joint in Toronto... we tried this really fancy place called Spoon & Fork. Given I'm from Niagara Falls, which has 'Wind' - the golden standard for sushi. I'm a bit biased. However, the food was really, quite exceptionally mediocre for $30 plus tax. The sushi rolls were half rice, the tempura was more fried batter than vegetable, the sweet and sour fish was doused in a very curious brown sauce and they must have thrown in some. For some reason the 'All You Can Eat' part doesn't include dessert. But the best part was the $3 green tea that was tacked on to my bill at the end.
I have never had to pay for green tea at a sushi restaurant. And I have never, EVER paid $3 for a tea bag and some hot water. Talk about management who only cares about short-term cash and has no regard for returning customers.
