This restaurant used to serve amazing food for many years- not any more. My rice was over cooked mush this portion was 80% of my meal. The vegetables were over cooked and not fresh, the tiny bits of sun dried tomatoes were clearly out of a big jar….my beautiful Goddess bowl has turned into overcooked, tasteless line food spooned in rice- different colours of mash on top are of more mash. All are meals at the table were like this- yuck! Especially at close to $20 entree. The place also looked dirty, very tired and in need of a refresh. Friday night and the place was empty. Not surprised.

Delicious dinner. I had the goddess bowl with the Soba noodles. It was fabulous! I highly recommend it. My friend had their signature bowl and also loved it. The organic KEW wine was an added bonus. Service was excellent. Thank you for all! We'll definitely be back.

It took over 30 mins to receive our food, waiter did not update us and barely acknowledged the wait. This restaurant seems to prioritize take out as we saw many dishes go into bags. One dish was fine but the other was dry and lacked flavour. Would not recommend.

Lovely patio facing the leafy green of trees and garden on the opposite corner. Food is vegan and therefore doesn't have the protein base of a meatier meal but it is tasty. Servers are nice and responsive.

We sat on the very back patio and it was super private and lovely! Music was loud but we loved it! They even wrote me a birthday card, which was sweet. Food was amazing as always, so many new options every year it seems. Kudos to the chef :)

My partner ordered a bowl and explained they have a gluten allergy. She found a soba noodle in the bowl and told the person clearing the table. We had a voucher from our last visit the server said expired so we couldn't use it and didn't acknowledge the issue with the gluten soba noodle in a salad bowl 🙃 every time we come we are reminded why we don't come more often. Great patio tho!!

Frequent fresh customer but usually do takeout vs dining in. We went to the Crawford location for a late Sunday lunch at 3pm. It wasn’t too busy when we sat down. Started with some drinks which almost took 10 mins for 3. And we waited a good +30 mins for the food - the service seemed slow in general given that it wasn’t too busy (not sure about takeout / delivery though). Food was good, but some misses like the squash tacos which were light on the jalapeño crema and on the dry side as a result. The squash also seemed undercooked as it was harder than usual. And the first 2 margaritas my wife ordered were on the lighter side. I’m a big fan and long time Fresh customer, but not the best experience this time around.

Sat out table for over ten mins before being greeted or acknowledged. Drinks came after our apps and mains. Didn’t even take it off the bill…standard customer service practice. Manager came and apologized….32 mins for a juice

Excellent food, beautiful ambience, comfortable seating. Portions were big. There was a hiccup in the kitchen that caused my friend to not get her appetizer, the GM came out personally with it, apologized and took the cost of it off of her bill.

Food was very salty, especially the dragon fries, which were essentially swimming in a pool. Dumplings were overly crisp-like hard. But mostly good food and a lot of it.

I love Fresh and eat there a lot. One consistent irritant is the sticky table tops and terrible tomatoes. It’s amazing how every time I order the Buddha bowl the tomatoes on the side are inedible. It’s happened about 5 times so now I request that they leave them off the bowl. Also the last 2 times the heating lamps on the indoor patio were extreme. But I love the menu and the food.

Overall, we had a positive experience. There were only two minor issues: First, the server did not notify us that the kitchen was out of certain ingredients/certain dishes could not be made *before* we placed our order. Hence, we ordered dishes that were unavailable and then had to request more time to come up with a backup. Second, this location only stocks to-go containers that must be placed in the garbage (black bin) in Toronto; their products are neither recyclable nor compostable. It would be great if this location began stocking a compostable option (100% unlined paper), as the location on Front does.

I got served soba noodles instead of rice with my bowl when we were sure we ordered the rice. I ordered the sweet potato fries that show it comes with a dip but I was charged extra for the dip, which is not indicated on the menu. Service a bit slow that day.

Two of us had the goddess bowl and I know broccoli is one of the vegetables in this dish but it came with a lot of broccoli and sparse on the other 3 veggies listed for this dish. In short, too heavy on the broccoli and not enough of the other veggies. Thanks.

Good food, nice ambiance. The covered patio was a nice place to sit and relax which catching up a friend. I’ve had the Favorite Bowl, over soba, and really enjoyed it. Portion size was huge—definitely more than I could finish. Pretty good coffee too, which is not a given in restaurants, so that’s a bonus.

The food, service and atmosphere are very good but at times these were overshadowed by the fact the heating system on their outdoor patio toggles between feeling like you're experiencing a heat wave and then when it's turned off, entering the frozen tundra. I highly recommend they figure out a more sustainable heating system. I'm not certain this location will be my go to throughout the winter months until that's resolved.
