The food was AWESOME! Service was normal for what you'd expect at a busy Chinese restaurant. You have to get their attention as they are busy. But I will definitely come back as the skewers, cold dishes were all really really good! Even my 2.5+yo loved the skewers. Nothing was salty or overly spicy. We really liked the 土豆絲 shredded potato and 夫妻肺片 fuqi feipian. We get them at other restaurants but these were different with a sweeter balance. Not overly spicy and just so refreshing. Definitely coming back to try their hot pots and dry pots! read more

This restaurant serves great food and has become a go-to spot for me and my friends. The prices are reasonable, good portion sizes, and the quality is consistently good. Quick service and the restaurant is nearly always full. We ordered a variety of skewers (lamb, chicken joint, beef, and chicken wings), along with seaweed soup, fries, enoki mushrooms and sautéed cabbage. Everything was delicious, though the only downside is that the meats are seasoned very similarly, so the flavors don't vary much. Still, I'd definitely recommend others give this place a try! read more

Food 5/5 A variety of spicy, sour and savory dishes are available for order. We often get lamb skewers, dumplings, shredded potatoes, beer and the cucumber appetizer. They also offer popcorn chicken, soups, etc. Great food to chomp on regardless of the season. Service 3/5 Generally no frills. They used to have two restrooms now there is only one available to patrons. It ends up being quite the wait given the volume of customers they have. read more

Best BBQ skewers in town! The place has a casual and inviting vibe, and the staff are really warm. I'd say go in without too many expectations and just enjoy the food--it's worth it! read more

Came back with a large group and service was good. Food arrived quickly and as always piping hot. Space was a bit tight but I can't blame them since it's a small restaurant and we were a large group of 12. read more

I tried this restaurant last night. I think it was Saturday or too busy, any orders from them were really really slow. But, I could tell the taste was good, and the staff service was nice and fast. I would recommend take out more than dine-in and order ahead. read more

Food was alright... We got a couple of the lamb, squid and sausage skewers. All of them came out lukewarm. The lamb was very tender however a bit more seasoning would've been better. DO NOT get the squid. It didn't even come on a skewer and the portion size was tiny. Not good either. We also got some of the side dishes...the one in the picture with cucumber, beef and peanuts was delicious! We got an order of the One Plus One fried rice....never again as it was literally just fried rice with raisins (first for me), frozen veg, and 5 little shrimps. We also got an order of the fried spicy eggplant. I WOULD COME BACK JUST FOR THIS. The eggplant was lightly breaded and fried and tossed in chili's and other veggies. So delicious! It does take read more

Recently came back for some more lamb skewers and chicken skewers. Calling ahead to place our order saved us from waiting in the parking lot for 30 minutes. When we got there the parking lot was practically empty so I'm sure why they said it was a busy night. In any case, we only waited 5 additional minutes after we got there. Skewers still tasted great! I have no complaints and we will be back again soon. read more

First time we visited One Plus One BBQ, everything were great! Food was hot, flavourful and delicious. We thought we had found a new go to place for Chinese style barbecue. Slightly cheaper than other places in the area. Second time however, everything were subpar. Together we had the sweet potato chips, barbecue vegetables, eggplant, lamb skewer, and soy sheets (tofu skin). Certain items were lukewarm. Soy sheets were not fresh and tasted as if they were about to turn bad. Overall, it was a disappointing experience. If I want food that is about to go bad, I can find hidden items at the back of my fridge, not at a restaurant. read more

Good prices and portions on the skewers. I highly recommend the lamb skewers as they were the juiciest out of all the ones we ordered. Seasoned perfectly and not too spicy, however it did take about 15 minutes to come out. Service is exactly what you'd expect from a Chinese restaurant - close to non-existent (but I guess what they say is true.. the worse the service is at a Chinese place, the better the food?) Overall, a great Chinese BBQ place that's open late and has many menu options. read more

One Plus One BBQ - Lamb and beef skewers (4 for $5.99) - Chinese Near Me - Toronto, Ontario

Food is good, the lamb skewer and the sausage skewer is really good. The service was on/off, a little slow and the place is not very clean.

First time here for dinner, ive only been here before for a late night snack since they do close late! And wow... didnt know they were so popular. All tables were booked and long line ups. Thank god i got a table shortly as it was still early, around 6ish. Always love their skewers of any kind. Strong flavours and is on the salty side for some people. But my mom loved it. This time, we also tried the fish pot. Thats was good too, but ill stick with the skewers. Lastly the cold noodle appetizer, i lovedddd it. Mainly cuz ive been craving for it for a bit lol Heres what I got: Cold noodle appetizer Lamb skewers Beef skewers Chicken heart skewers Bean curs roll skewers Fish pot with Veggies, fungus, bean curd and noodles. Would definitely come back! read more

I've lost count on the amount of times I've visited this place. The food here are affordable and so yummy! Pictures posted are from different occasions. Must order: 1) pig ears in green onion. I've never tried it (don't like pig ears) but my friend loves this. We order it every time and within 8 minutes you'll see a clear plate. You can ask for a bit of spice to be added if you like spicy. 2) skewers! Personal favourite is their famous ribs and lamb. The ribs are a bit on the spicy side but the favouring is perfect! The lambs are tender and don't have the stinky lamb after taste. 3) bbq potatoes chips. It's hit or miss, when it's good, the chips are crunchier than the best chips you've ever taste. The spices used taste like the ones on the bbq skewer meats. If you plan to come with a large group, best to reserve. The place is almost ALWAYS packed. read more

Food is decent for the most part. However, the restaurant needs better ventilation and a serious scrub down. The best of the night was jelly noodles in sesame sauce - no wonder almost every table had an order. Kungpao chicken came next and was disappointing with unevenly cut, over-seasoned chicken bits. Lamb skewers weren't bad. The dry pot cauliflower had nice flavour, but more than half the dish was onion, chilli and other inedibles. More cauliflower! Please and thank you. Not very impressed with the atmosphere (think grimy floors, smokey air), or service. But I would come back for the cold noodles (take out). read more

I went to this restaurant with one other person, on a monday night. as it is the start of the work week. the restaurant was not too busy. This restaurant one of the many in Scarborough in northern style Chinese BBQ, so unlike traditional Cantonese style with the sweet and salty flavor that is dominant. The northern style is more spicy and savory. The things that are must try for any bbq restaurant is of course the BBQ Lamb Skewers. , i ordered those as well as the BBQ spicy pork rib, Chicken Gizzard, and Mussels. The BBQ meat at this restaurant is pretty good, the meat is tender and just write, and the spicy pork ribs is very different then most available in toronto, and is definitely recommended. I do enjoy spicy, however i would suggest those who cannot take spicy to be careful as this restaurant has a stronger spice then others. The Mussels for this restuarants is not bad however i would suggest for more then 2 people you need definetely a bigger portion cause it is very small meat and you will finish it quickly. The vegetable we ordered the spicy and sour shredded potato, has a good wok flavour, however i find the spicyness is too overpowering and not much sour flavour into it. The service in this place is not bad they were very efficient with the food, and the water. overall i find that although the flavour was not bad, and most dishes they cook pretty wel, they do seem to favour a heavier flavour then most other bbq restaurants, which for some people and i know a few who commented throughout this restaurant is the one thing they prefer them to do less of. i would go again to this restuarant of course read more

Went there for dinner, just got their signature dish and some skewers (it is a Northern Chinese BBQ place after all). Their signature dish is the golden sweet and sour pork. First of all, the breading is very crispy, not soggy at all like many sweet and sour pork served at many places; you could also tell that they fried it fresh on the spot. Second of all, the portion is huge and because of the tanginess from their special lemon/citrus sauce, you won't feel bad near the end having eaten all the breading and gooey sweet sauce. I think the dish is only $10.99 or $11.99, definitely a steal. Their skewers are above average but not outstanding. If you prefer skewers with lots of spices, these should satiate your taste buds. Service could be better and the place is always crowded during dinner time. Expect to wait 20-30 minutes after 7 pm. The places opens at 5 pm so 5-7 pm is usually the best time. read more

One Plus One BBQ - Signature sweet and sour pork ($10.99) and some beef and lamb skewers. Strongly recommend the pork dish. - Chinese Near Me - Toronto, Ontario

Went with friends.. inside of restaurant was so crowded we needed to wait about 30mins. It was worth it. Good price with quality food.

Came here to try out their skewers as I'm a huge fan of lamb skewers. Though they are cheaper than where I usually go at $4.99 for 4 skewers, you must order in 4s for most of the skewers, which becomes more expensive. Also, they are way too salty for my taste. I'm realizing after seeing another review that I could have asked for less salt and less MSG, but their standard flavouring shouldn't be that salty. The fried vegetable dishes were also basically swimming in oil. The caramelized sweet potato was actually pretty good, so crispy on the outside and hot and soft on the inside. Would actually come back to try the caramelized taro. Likely wouldn't come back here, but if I did I would definitely ask for less oil/less salt/less MSG. Or maybe try one of the hotpots that I saw other tables having. read more

My first visit for take out was very disappointing. Only ordered a few meat skewers thinking it would be fast. A large table next to me came in later and started ordering after 10 minutes after I paid for my take out. Because they were dining in with tips, they got 5+ dishes and a handful of meat skewers before I got to see my order. WTF! Food not cheap compared to similar food stalls around. I gave a star for the lamb skewers that were more meaty but still loaded with MSG. The skewers that boasted crispy bones were too hard to bite into. Which means it was way too expensive as less than 10% was edible. These skewers costs $5 for 4 skewers not including tax. read more

Yum! I really loved the bbq here and I can't wait to go back! It might seem a little salty and spicy for others but I found it perfect. I'm from northern China so my tastes buds are pretty heavy. The prices are okay, not too expensive but not cheap either. I recommend the bbq that says 4 skewers and not the ones that says 1 serving. The one comes on a plate like stir fry and doesn't seem like bbq lol Overall I liked it, speed was okay and food was to my taste. read more

It's a very busy place! Apparently very well liked. Most of the staff are friendly but there was one young server who did not understand English that was quite rude to us. They left the very dirty skewers disposal cup that were used by previous customers on the same table which was quite disgusting. We ordered lamb, beef and chicken wing skewers, a garlic pork slice dish, and the black bean paste noodles. The skewers smelled like gas and burned stove. We had a hard time of basically were not able to differentiate the lamb from the beef. The chicken wings were well seasoned and tender. The noodles was very salty but the portion was big. Overall their food is on the very high sodium end and our stomachs feel so bad after due to the spices and salt used. I hope they can improve on cleanliness and some of the staff's service. read more

There was a lineup so we decided to do takeout instead. Inside is very small, and tables are placed close together. There wasn't really anywhere to stand and wait for our order (20min wait) so we went outside and took a walk around the plaza. We ordered BBQ lamb, bean curd, shredded potato, stir fried veggies but it was mostly cabbage lol, and fried bread with condensed milk. Each order was packed in aluminum foil lined styrofoam containers, probably to retain the heat longer. Everything tasted good, no complaints. I was actually expecting the skewers to be saltier but they were perfect. Maybe I just went on a good day? If I'm with a group of friends I'll definitely dine in but if it's just just me and my bf, I'd most likely do take out again. Only next time I'll phone in my order to avoid waiting. read more

Pretty good and cheap skewer place in the area. Open late. No complaints about the food at all, definitely worth the money. The only thing I had to mention was that they have coca cola chicken wings. I had to try it because I had a failed attempt in making it before. It was not what I expected. It's just very sweet, you can't taste coca cola at all. Almost just like honey. read more

My first and last visit to this place, worst customer service I have ever experience in dining, never going back again.

Pricing pretty good. Food pretty good. I love bbq skewers!!! I always ask for less salt & less MSG. If ur going to eat it with rice then leave it to how it is originally. All the food is pretty decent. Portions are decent. Decor is simple restaurant style. There was a bit of a wait when I went on the weekend. Overall pretty good experience. Will return. read more

Hole in the wall style place. You can tell they don't take care of it and is usually a sign of how well the staff/owners handle food. The servers are very rude and barely talk. They also force you to pay cash even when they have other methods available. The sanitation is definitely not up to standards. read more
