I've been to chick fil a multiple times during visits to the states so I decided to check out the first Canadian location. We went on a Saturday afternoon and there was a small line, we ordered in 5 min and got our food in another 5-10 min. Very fast and efficient staff. We ordered two deluxe chicken sandwiches (sub Monterey Jack cheese for cheddar) combos with waffle fries and diet lemonade made with Splenda. Both combos came to around $25. Let me tell you - somehow it tastes better here than in the US. Chicken was juicy and crispy, bread was soft and buttery and the waffle fries were crispy and fresh. I recommend getting a few of their sauces on the side. I like how they don't charge for extra sauces. I recommend the chic fil a and garden ranch sauce. Definitely will visit again!! Hope they open more locations soon. read more

Chick-fil-A - Deluxe chicken burger (sub Monterey Jack cheese for cheddar) and waffle fries - Fast Food Near Me - Toronto, Ontario

Finally got to try this and I gave myself a pat on the back for not falling for the hype and waiting some 2+ hours like some people did. Pros: The service is friendly and fast, they don't nickel and dime you for sauces like ALL other fast food joints. You can be assured your order will come out accurate. Nothing missed ever. Cons: it's just a chicken sandwich. I tried the spicy, the original and the spicy deluxe with fries and I gotta say the fries were my fav part. Maybe I'm an odd ball but I do like a little more evenness in my chicken to bun ratio and there was just too much chicken here. If you like that then great! I hate to say this but Wendy's spicy chicken sandwich is way better. Don't fall for the hype. Try it if you're ever in the area but it's nothing to go out of your way for. read more

First time i tried it was in Florida a few years ago and got the best service i have ever gotten at any fast food restaurant in my life. I mean the staff went and personally got me refills and gave me samples of the food. Anyways, im glad its in Toronto. I went on a Saturday afternoon. The line was just about at the door... but it moves very fast. made the order within 20 minutes. I was served by the manager or supervisor who was nice and offered me 4 different types of sauces. He did try to upsell me their milkshake which i declined. Anyways, the food was good. Chicken was a tad salty. But at least its 100% all real chicken and mcchicken mash. hope they open more locations. read more

Eat Mor Chikin! It's so good. I always get the deluxe with Chick-Fil-A sauce and waffle fries. No drink. So I save about 70 cents if I'm not mistaken. Bag is too weak (or food is too heavy). Tore in half about two blocks down the street and almost dumped my food on the sidewalk, if not for my superhuman non organic chicken growth hormone fed reflexes. Fries need a bit more salt IMHO that's why it's not 5 stars. For months the line up was ridiculously long. Now it's quite reasonable I guess the shine has worn off. read more

Putting aside the controversy of Chick-fil-A, let's discuss the experience as it relates to just the food and service. The lines have been snaking out and around the corner ever since they opened their doors. You need to have patience when wanting to take a bite into any one of their chicken sandwiches. I went on a Saturday around 12:30pm and got lucky with the crowd. It wasn't burst out the door and it was a reasonable 10-15 minute wait until you got the the front counter to place an order. The restaurant ambience and decor is upscale fast casual with a mixture of tables and high-top booth chairs for customers to sit and tear into their loot bag of Chick-fil-A. If you don't know already, Chick-fil-A has a very short and compact menu offering, chicken sandwiches. This focus on making the best chicken sandwich is what arguably earned them this hype. You can order regular (includes pickles) and deluxe (cheese, lettuce, tomatoes, and pickles) variations of their chicken sandwich. They also offer a spicy version too that really builds as you take bite after bite. We wouldn't go and not upgrade to the meal combo that includes their thick cut waffle fries and choice of drink. Pro tip is you can get the sweetened iced tea and they can adjust the amount of sugar syrup pumps. They have 8 sauces for you to choose from that includes their own Chick-fil-A smokey tangy offering. They will give you two and I learned that you will want to use one of them on your sandwich to add another level of flavour. The sandwich itself is fried to a deep brown colour and the chicken inside is very moist. Like I said, this is what they focus on getting right. The portion is also pretty generous and is not a processed uniform patty. Rather, it is an actual piece of white meat chicken breast sandwiched between the two buns. You will probably be shocked that the sandwich has disappeared from your hand rather quickly as you take more and more bites til it is gone. Only disappointment was that the waffle fries were limp and not even warm. Probably due to the absolute pace that the staff are pushing out food that they just make tons and tons to meet the demand. It was what it was. I want to come back for seconds but will wait until the hype has subsided. read more

I really really like their waffle fries and I like their chicken sandwich. I think they've been really consist with it and typically go with the chik fil-a sauce or buffalo for a little spice but really not spicy at all. I don't think it's the crispy-ist fried chicken, more of a baked texture but I'm not mad at that. I think it works. Very juicy chicken breast and high quality too. The two or three little pickles add a good hit of acid and the bun is always warm soft. It's a really simple sandwich but in the best way possible. I'm not sure if this is the standard for all chick-fil-a's but the stardard here is pretty high. The service is also super efficient and always freindly. Although there is usually a line when I go. So business is going well so far. The line moves pretty fast too and you get your order pretty quickly. read more

15 min wait on Saturday afternoon. Line up was moving quicker than I thought due to their preprdering then paying at the casher system( thumbs up for that) $7 for a spicy( it's not that spicy) deluxe chicken sandwich was pretty good. Very filling. Not the best chicken sandwich I had though. But consideing it is the fast food, still not bad. read more

Came here on Saturday and waited in line at 3pm. The line didn't go around the building but did stretch to the intersection/corner. The line went by pretty quickly and they had people inside taking your orders in advance through iPad so that all you needed to do was pay at the cash and pick up your order. Seating was limited, so you may need to find a high table and a spot to stand (if you're lucky to find that), or wait about 10 minutes to get seating. The food was much better than I had anticipated, with a large piece of chicken that was still fairly juicy! The regular chicken burger has two slices of pickles and with every order, you get 3 sauces of your choice to either use for your fries or you can put inside the bun (I highly recommend the Chick-fil-a sauce, it's almost like a honey mustard, but not as mustard-y). As for the drink, I got the lemonade (not too sweet), and the lemonade/sweet tea blend (which tastes like a HK style iced lemon tea). Would I recommend or visit again? Yes! Maybe to try the chicken soup, too. read more

Walked by at 8pm without a single soul lining up outside so I decided to walk in. Lucky for me because 5 minutes later, about 20 people were queueing up outside. They had staff pre-taking your orders while in line to speed up the process at the cashier. I ordered the Chick-fil-A Chicken Sandwich, Spicy Chicken Sandwich, and 6 Chick-fil-A nuggets which came to about $19. For sauces, I opted to try the Chick-fil-A sauce (140 calories per container) and the Sweet and Spicy Sriracha sauce (45 calories per container). I can't pin point what the Chick-fil-A sauce tasted like but I can see why this is the Big Mac sauce of their sauses. Pretty tasty and extremely high in calories. The Sweet and Spicy Sriracha sauce was nothing special. Tasted like a slightly spicier version of Sweet Chilli Thai sauce. Both chicken sandwiches had a pretty decent sized chicken breast patty and the spicy one had a nice little kick to it as well. The nuggets were nothing special to be honest. Service was very good. Between the lining up, pre-ordering, paying and receiving order it took about 15 minutes. Found a spot at one of the tables to eat and someone came by to clear the mess that someone left behind. I'll come back to try some other items on the menu but this was more of a "I got it off my to do list" thing more than anything. read more

I was so excited when I heard there was a chick fil à opening at downtown Toronto as I've always heard great things about them from friends who's tried in the states. When I finally got to visit the store myself, obviously there was a huge line (and this was already a month into their opening). However the line moved very fast, I swear there's like over 50 employees working. I got the spicy deluxe with waffle fries and let's just say it's by far the best chicken sandwich I've had. The chicken was far from dry and the bun was also very soft. Overall, great food, fast and friendly service! read more

Chick-fil-A - Fast Food Near Me - Toronto, Ontario

You know the food is good when people are willing to line up in negative degree weather. I gave into the hype and upon arrive was delighted to see there wasn't anyone waiting outside. The queue inside moved rather quickly and I was able to order and receive my meal in under 5 minutes. Seating is limited, there were a lot of folks holding seats while their friends stood in line. We were able to snag 3 seats near the door, it was a tight fit but we made it work. The Chick-fil-A Deluxe Sandwich was good but there was something missing; It was not what I was expecting taste-wise. My friends opted for the spicy version and found it more flavourful. One thing we all pointed out while discussing the food was that the sandwiches and waffle fries could have been crispier. Last but not least I highly recommend getting the Lemonade or Cookies & Cream milkshake. You won't be disappointed read more

Controversy and political views aside, this is only a review of the food experience. I thought the food was overpriced, but fast food nowadays tends to be anywhere up to $10.00. I thought the spicy chicken sandwich is delicious and love the fries as well. The chocolate milkshake also hit the right spot. The food was quite satisfying. Just a bit on the salty side and not a fan of the sauce options. I can see what the hype is about. read more

Chick-fil-A - Fast Food Near Me - Toronto, Ontario

Look, I'm a tiny-a$$ little person. So I don't need to eat a lot to feel full. So I honestly don't understand the universally positive reviews raving about this place, as the portions were tiny as all hell. Was I supposed to order multiple burgers and assemble them to make a normal-sized burger? Like a chicken Voltron? Was I supposed to wait in a lineup outside the restaurant for two hours until I was starving and delirious to the point where ANYTHING eaten afterwards would've sufficed? Is that the trick? I mistakenly ordered the regular Chick-fil-A Sandwich and waffle fries. The sandwich looked and tasted like a tiny, sad McChicken, but without the mayo or lettuce (which apparently costs extra and is another burger entirely?) The waffle fries were edible and artfully fanned-out in the little box, but said arrangement only allowed for half a dozen fries in the container. On the upside, they offered free sauce packets, and I tried the exotic-sounding "Polynesian Sauce" which tasted like the sweet and sour sauce you get with chicken balls (which I guess apparently originated from Polynesia?) Also, the order was completed and delivered quickly, so that's one less thing for me to complain about. I am irrationally mad at myself at how disappointed (and very hungry) I still am. read more

The only reason this restaurant is getting a 2 star is because the food was great! I will start off with the positive. The line up to get in was long but rolled pretty smooth and we were able to get our orders in in under 20 minutes. Up to that point the staff was great and kept the crowd moving. Food was great! Grilled chicken is a great healthy alternative if you are watching what you eat . Where it went down hill is waiting for my food. My friend and I ordered at the exact same time... she got her meal in less than 5 minutes. Mine took almost 25 minutes & I stood at that counter for the whole time! I asked the staff twice if they can look up my order and they just said it's coming. The third time I went up I asked them to look up my receipt and finally they had to go back to get my order. They handed me my bag and just walked away. No apology for the delay and no kindness. I had not raised my voice once nor had spoken rudely. I give them 0 stars on service. read more

Chick-fil-A - Grilled chicken fingers, waffle fries and a poo. - Fast Food Near Me - Toronto, Ontario

A YES FOR ME It is a fast food place, but damn tasty. The chicken was tender and tasty in both sandwich and strips. Strips were a bit too spicy Fries are tasty, but nothing special about them. I really like they signature dipping sauces, as every flavour I tried was great. The prices are definitely above normal and other places have much cheaper pricing, but the products are better quality here. Overall, I would definitely come back when I want to eat a premium fast food. read more

I went to Chick-fil-A restaurant to see what is all the hype is about. The lineup is very long and took around 15 minutes to order my food. I ordered the deluxe sandwich with fries and a drink. I was surprised to be able to get a seat since there were so many people. The deluxe sandwich and fries were pretty good, but I thought that the sandwich was kind of small. Would I go back? Maybe if the lineup was smaller. read more

I was worried. I was worried that, like other American chains, the Canadian version may not get it just right. Luckily, my fears have fallen by the wayside. CFA in Toronto is just as good as it is in the US. The things to get will always be the chicken sandwich and the nuggets, with a wide array of sauces (which, if you're like me, you'll also use for waffle fry dipping. If you're willing to go early in the morning, or around non-busy times, the waits are minimal (I was in line for only 5 minutes when I went on a Saturday morning), and well worth it. You also need to get the lemonade or diet lemonade, that goes without saying. read more

Chick-fil-A - CFA Deluxe Sandwich - Fast Food Near Me - Toronto, Ontario

I haven't had Chick-fil-A in sooo long and I have definitely been missing out. I went on a Saturday afternoon and it wasn't too busy. There was a line up but the line moved fast because the workers come up to you in line with the iPad and you order in line first. You then go up to the counter to pay and pick up your food. I ordered the Spicy Chicken Sandwich Meal which came with waffle fries and a drink. The chicken is SOO moist and flavourful. I ordered extra Chick-fil-A sauce and got 4 instead of the usual 2. I also asked for Polynesian sauce which is a tangy, sweet and sour sauce. I will definitely be revisiting when I get that chicken sandwich craving! read more

I went here today and ordered the chick-fil-a deluxe sandwich. I was excited to try this place because of all the hype and was disappointed when it didn't live up to the hype. The sandwich itself was ok (not the best but not the worst either) but my bun was cold. It would've been better lightly toasted so that it's warm. The chicken is real chicken breast which is nice but was lacking in flavour. I added chick-fil-a sauce and zesty buffalo sauce which gave it more flavour. Not in any rush to go back. Might try the waffle fries one day. read more

First location of Chick-fil-A opened up in a very convenient location so there was no rush to try. To line up outside around the corner of the building, would not have been worth it for fast food. There were times when the line was empty, depends on time of day and luck. The chicken was very moist and subtle in flavour that is where the variety of sauces comes in handy. The spicy chicken just tastes spicy; flavour of the chicken was lost. The lettuce and tomato in the deluxe felt very oily could probably pass and just stick to the original. The waffle fries were mediocre and somewhat soft, wish the outside was crispier. Concluded the sauces are dependent on the employee, some were able to get one of each while others could only get a max of four. Decided to have Chick-fil-A for team lunch and was able to place an order for 19 sandwiches, 10 waffle fries and 5 nuggets a day in advance. The receipt even shows promised ready time. On the day of pickup, bypassed the entire lunch line and went straight to the counter for the order. It was not ready so had to wait a bit while they put everything together, took around 10-15 minutes. Overall, have been and will be back again. read more

Chick-fil-A is located at the north east corner of Yonge and Hayden. The newly constructed One Bloor East is located at the south east corner of Bloor and Yonge. This restaurant is at the south west corner of this building. Since this restaurant is at the corner of the building at least for now it allows the patrons that are lining up to get into this establishment a place to stand as the line for this place when I went did in fact go around the corner but not past the footprint of the restaurant itself. If I had to estimate the point at where we were standing to the front door to the order line to the cashier to the pickup counter that queue is about 100 to 150 people long. Our wait from the back to when we received our order I'd say took under 20 minutes. I've waited at the McDonald's at Weston just south of the 401 where there was nobody in line longer than this wait. As far as the wait goes for lines, I've never seen a more efficient people moving, people serving system for a newly opened place here, ever. If long lines are a deterrent for you, fear not as the line may be long but the wait is not. This model for order taking is a whole new take than what I've seen in all the other Chick-fil-A's I've ever been to. I've been to Chick-fil-A in Atlanta, Jacksonville, Orlando, Pittsburgh, Chicago, North Carolina and other places I've guessing I've just forgotten about. Basically I've had my experiences with this restaurant and I have to say that not a single experience has ever been bad, not one. What makes this experience so good at each and every Chick-fil-A including this new Toronto location? The service and efficiency can't be beat oh and that they have hands down the best fast food chicken sandwich from a chain, period. I've seen Chick-fil-A's with what is considered normal traffic and for now, this Toronto store which is the first true brick and mortar in the country is currently in well oiled machine mode. The quantity of customers they are able to service is rather staggering considering how many people are waiting to get to order from this place. Currently the ordering is as such: there's a line system in place in which you'll follow the path leading to the cash counter. On the way to the cash counter there's an "island" of order takers with tablets taking orders of customers in line asking for their first name and last name initial. Getting to the counter you give your name and they have and confirm your order where you'll pay. The order counter is where you will ask for your sauce and pick up your drinks if you have ordered any. The pick up counter is to the right where they'll call out names and you'll hand your receipt over so they can confirm your order is in fact yours before they hand it over. This is a drastic change compared to my previous experiences where at the counter they ask you what sauces you'd like and then put it into a numbered pylon-cone type stand. You go to your seating and they'd take your order to you. For now this isn't done in Toronto just yet and who knows they may not adopt this method if things never slow down. The seating is limited inside in a sense that the place is completely packed so getting a seat at least for now is rather difficult. The best bet for now is to probably take it to go if you don't want to wait around for seating. The food. The sauces are listed on the wall in case you don't know but each of the 7 also have a different calorie total as well. Currently the original Chick-fil-A and the Garden Herb Ranch are the highest at 140 a pack which is kind of a lot considering how small these things are while all the others are lower or much lower. Those 2 with the highest are basically the creamy ones. As far as the menu goes it's pretty simple. Chicken sandwiches which are either the breaded fried type, grilled non-breaded type, nuggets, etc. Some sandwiches are spicy while others are not and some with veggies and cheese (deluxe) or not, with pickles. It's not a diverse menu but it never has been and it doesn't need to be. They aren't going off board here with their offerings and have a simple model which is quality food, quality service, and all around goal of a quality experience. The chicken sandwiches are thick, real white meat chicken breast on a bun. It doesn't get more basic than that really and it's something that they've essentially perfected as they don't also serve beef burgers or tacos or whatever else. They also have breakfast but I've never had it. As for condiments they have packets of mayo, hot sauce, mustard and napkins on a counter near the exit, next to the garbage bin. At the end of the day this place is not making a political statement. Their origins or history with their political alignments may not match the entire public out there but they're not looking to do that at the restaurant. The restaurant is just a restaurant and nothing more. In case you didn't know they're closed on Sundays. read more

Came for a long wait in line to have the new experience with everyone else. While I wish that the company brass were more liberal in their politics, everything else was a pleasant surprise. What, you ask? 1. Exceptional service. The brutally long line moved surprisingly fast. Everyone on staff was efficient and friendly in a way that is foreign to Canadian fast food culture. A free tea refill while a million people are in the place? No problem. A smile? a thank you? Yes. Yes. It seems like they appreciate their customers in a way that places like Tim Horton's and Wendy's do not understand. 2. Hot, tasty food. Less heavily fried than Popeyes on the unhealthy side, yet tastier than other contenders on the grilled/fresh side. The waffle fries and sandwich are better than comparably priced fast food meals. I think Chick Fil A will be a dominant player in Toronto within 2-3 years if they choose to expand. As a fast food diner, I appreciate what I got here...and this was in what should have been a disorganized, overcrowded first week or two. They were totally ready to rock it from day one. read more

Been wanting to try chick fila for awhile now. Finally made the trip on a weekday, it wasn't too busy when we arrived. We waited in line for about 10 minutes before they were able to take our order. We ordered the chicken nugget, and their deluxe spicy chicken burger combo. They don't have the most efficient ordering system, as they take your name down during the order and call your name after the order is ready. Unfortunately, many people share the same first names. As a result, someone else took our order and we had to wait another 15 minutes to get our order. The chicken nuggets were okay, they tasted like something you can whip up at home. The deluxe chicken spicy burger was juicy and flavourful. Unfortunately, the waffle fries that came as part of the combo did not live up to the burger, it was soggy and flavourless. Overall, this is a decent place for a quick bite. read more

Line was long but went by quick. But I also went at 11am before the lunch rush. They take ur order while in line. I got the spicy chicken and it was an impressive spice. Everything is made in house. I like the variety of sauces for the sandwiches. They also had soup on the menu. Lemonade was good. Next time I'd get a milk shake. Waffle fries were just ok. I also want to try their breakfast. We will def have to go. The service was fast and quick. By the time I paid...my food was bagged and ready to go. Downside- the bun was shiny. Somehting about shiny buns weirds me out read more

Guys, you know which place is irredeemably mediocre? Here's a hint: it's closed on Sunday. To be fair, they do fast food fast. Like, impressively fast. I guess they know generally what people are lining up for. I was handed a foil bag basically seconds after ordering. The person behind the counter was very friendly, which I appreciated, so great staff and service. The chicken sandwich tastes like the (very, very few) chicken sandwiches I've had at other fast food places - bland, lifeless, cheap. Maybe it's a bit juicier than the competition. Maybe. Price wise, it's sort of reasonable. I wouldn't call it a deal given what you get, but it's not expensive. It hit me with a mild stomach ache afterwards, so there's that too. Overall, would not go back. It seems criminal to line up for something so unexciting given the incredible culinary landscape in this city. read more

Went during the opening week and the line went by pretty fast! Employees took our orders through their iPads or whatever system they use before we got to cash which saved time for the both of us. Good luck trying to find somewhere to sit In the restaurant though especially if you go during high peak hours. I ordered their chocolate milk shake with the chick fil a chicken sandwich combo which comes with the infamous waffle fries and sauce of your choice. IT WAS PRETTY DARN GOOD. The burger was sooo warm I literally had to wait a bit for it to cool down, and the chicken was juicy!!! Waffle fries tasted like what you expect it to, nothing crazy. Same with the chocolate milk shake. Nothing new. The Chick Fil a sauce was pretty good though. Would I recommend? Yes read more
