| - I honestly like Spring Rolls, but the service at this establishment was kind of poor.
I went to the location at the Fairview Mall to catch up with friends and try the "All You Can Eat" option which sounded pretty cool. Our waiter was nice...at first. He told us about the $25 buffet style dinner (my friend and I had never had that before, our other friend had tried it) and we all got that. FAIR WARNING: If you go with a group EVERYONE has to pick either all you can eat or ordering dishes. Anyways, food started rolling out and honestly it was a GREAT experience! You can literally try anything on the menu as long as you finish it and everything is portion controlled so you have room to eat more.
Here's where things went a little left. I have a super fast metabolism so I get full fairly quickly but I obviously wanted to get my money's worth. After every plate I would take 5-10 minutes to digest before ordering again, obviously not trying to waste by ordering too much. About an hour in, my group wasn't getting served as much and we were waiting up to twenty minutes to be served. The waiter seemed annoyed when taking our orders and was clearly avoiding our table. It bothered me because he knew two of us were new to the restaurant and first impression are so important. Anyways, we finally get desert and they have these bite sized brownies that I really liked. Again, fast metabolism so I wasn't trying to eat too much too fast. When I ordered a second round of brownies, I noticed they were basically thrown on the plate. Even though they were cube shaped they had an obvious top side and he clearly wasn't worried about presentation when he sent them to our table. This was really passive aggressive behaviour on his part and by then, my group was ready to go.
We tipped an okay amount given the service and he seemed annoyed that we didn't give that much. I thought that was pretty extra, considering he avoided our table so much.
So yeah, service sucked but I enjoyed the food and didn't get sick (I also have a super sensitive stomach) so I would definitely return and have ordered from Spring Rolls since then!
