The Boil Bar - Toronto, Ontario

I was expecting this place to be like Captain Boil's but it was not! The food was horrible the sauces did not taste good the mussels were not cooked well and the shrimp had no taste. Order chicken wings which were also bland and the only taste was the oil ... they were cooked in. The best thing there was the fries! Read more

Not recommending this seafood bar to everyone. The food is not as good as its interior decoration. I think they washed the oyster before they served it because I couldn't taste any salt water and the surface of the oyster meat was very dry. The crawfish was also not good ... at all. It was prepared in advanced and the sauce was mixed just before it was served, so the taste of the meat was pretty plain. I wish they can improve the quality. Read more

I think the place is gimmicky. $30 for a pound of lobster in a plastic bag seems a little pricey. Food is OK. I chose the lowest level of spiciness for the sizzling rice/boil combo and found it still quite spicy. However the same level of spiciness for the lobster ... and mussels when ordered individually was more in line with what was expected. I loved being able to have Presotea with my meal though!

Food: 7/10 -- Value: 7/10 -- Service: 7/10 -- Ambiance/Décor: 7/10 This place is fine. Ordinary, average food, nothing really to recommend. The setup is kind of interesting though because they kind of rely on Yogen Früz and Prestotea names to draw attention to the restaurant as those two signs are ... more prominent and noticeable than the restaurant's own name. Their special combo includes a noodle, half-price appetizer, and half-price prestotea drink. Food is alright. I had the beef brisket noodle ($7.99) was not bad even if the broth was a tad on the oily side. There were a lot of noodles; too much for me to finish. Taste was a little bland. The hokkaido bubble tea was really big for $3 (50% off $5 when you order it with noodles and an appetizer + $0.50 for tapioca), which is a great deal. Not quite as good as the hokkaido I had from Sharetea. Their appetizers range from $3-$6, which isn't bad when you get it in a combo at half-price. Service and food are both quick. Economical as most Asian places are. Read more

First time here and we didn't have the greatest impression when we walked in, but after the food came we were quite surprised! There's some variation with the thickness of noodles but they were really bouncy and chewy! Would definitely come back if we were in the mood for these ... types of noodles. Otherwise, not much else on the menu. Read more
