3 reviews for Crystal Rolls
All Reviews
After avoiding this place for no good reason for a long time, my co-workers and I wandered in and discovered a real gem in the east Annex. We've sampled most of the items on their (very cheap!) lunch menu, and I don't think any of us have ever been less than very pleased with its output.
Lunch specials come with hot and sour soup, some form of salad (sometimes lettuce, sometimes mango, sometimes others), and a spring roll, in addition to the well-proportioned mains. Add to all that the fast, responsible and friendly service, and you've got a real winner in Asian fusion cuisine.
Some of our favourites are, of course, the entire lunch specials menu, but one frequently-overlooked but very tasty alternative is the "Pho hot and sour soup," which is basically hot and sour soup with udon noodles. Great for a cold and dreary day.
Crystal Rolls was recommended by a close friend and after having my first experience there, I can see why it is huge fave of many thai food lovers in Toronto.
If I had to sum up Crystal Rolls in a few words, they would be the following:
Delicious thai food that is plentiful and cheap!
They have a large menu with many of your thai favourites, such as spring rolls (both meat, veggie and seafood combos), pad thai in various styles and flavours, pure veggie or pure meat dishes for all of your veggie/vegans or carnivores.
Also, they have a full service bar and know how to make a great stiff martini or a high class glass of wine.
When I ate there, I split fresh veggie rolls with a friend. As my main course, I ordered the asian chow mein with seafood. It was all mixed up with larger noodles, tons of fresh vegetables like broccoli, peppers and onions and was dressed with a yummy black bean sauce.
Overall, my appetizer, meal and a glass of wine came to just $20.
Now that is what I call amazing thai quality at a great low price!
I just ordered their House Pad Thai and Spring Rolls and have now become a fan. The food was really good and it came fairly quickly. Good price and great portion sizes.
