    The place was just OK. However, it was not a very recommendable destination. It has the whole fast food thing going for it with all the product merchandising and branding found in the store. The place is apparently a Dubai-based quick serve restaurant that has recently been slowly expanding its overseas presence. I would not count its signature product, the fried chicken, as one of the best ones available in the market. The skin is not one of the crunchiest or most flavorful. The white meat is not one of the most juiciest. I did appreciate that they have tandoori fries available as one of the sides. It is just regular french fries sprinkled with tandoori powder. Their crunchy meal pack available for $14.99 is a good go-to to be able to sample most of what they have to offer. The meal platter includes a chicken sandwich, a chicken piece, 2 sides, and a drink. Despite no single menu item standing out in terms of taste, it was still relatively good value price-wise.

    This fried chicken restaurant is at their second location in the GTA with a grand opening on 2022-09-30. The chain started about 20 years ago in Dubai and has spread to many countries. During grand opening day, the first 100 got one drumstick and one biscuit. There are contests and prizes Their chicken is tender and delicious. There is no free WiFi but you can use the free WiFi from Ikkousha next door. There will be free WiFi very soon. There restaurant is wheelchair accessible. There are separate male/female washrooms in the basement (hence not wheelchair accessible). There is paid neighbourhood street parking. Review 2022-112

    Chicken sandwich and fries!
    Steven M.

    I was pretty stoked when I walked by a brand new (I haven't been back in Toronto since 2019, so new to me) fast food place dedicated to chicken so of course I stopped what I was doing and headed on in. This place looks like a fast food place, but it was pretty nice and the menu hanging up was showing all the sides, nuggets, strips, and sandwiches a chicken lover could possibly want. I knew I was in the mood for a chicken sandwich so I went with the longer style sandwich with two pieces of chicken in it, almost kind of resembled the original chicken sandwich from Burger King with a side of French fries on the side. The staff was quick and the food was out in under three minutes while I grabbed a table. I gotta mention the French fries first as they were top notch to say the least. The fries were on the softer side but had great flavour to them. The chicken sandwich itself wasn't going to win any city awards but I sure did enjoy it for what it was. I would honestly rather eat a chicken sandwich from this place rather than McDonalds or Wendy's, but I would still probably go with Popeyes if it was an option. The sandwich was solid enough and I would definitely roll through again to try the fried chicken and some more sandwiches. Overall, I was a fan of this place and thought both the food and presentation was really good. This place was solid for a fast food alternative and gained a fan in me. Like chicken in Toronto? Give these guys a try!

    Honestly . . . Skip it. The place is dirty. The staff could care less. She was on the phone the entire time she took my order and had zero clue what she was talking about. They advertise chicken that looks good. I asked for it and what came out were frozen Chicken nuggets you can get at the grocery store. The fries were legit just sitting out in the open and they served them to me. They were not the least bit warm. Barley ate any. The only redeeming thing was the chicken sandwich, the chicken was real and juicy and that was about it. The sauce was over powering. The bread was oddly grey. Beyond that this was a terrible experience and I truly think you would enjoy McDonalds more than this place.

    Got the: - 3 Pcs Fried Chicken Spicy ($8.99) - Tandoori Fries Regular ($2.99) Overall, chicken was pretty decent - it was fresh and crispy. The tandoori fries are regular fries with some tandoori like seasoning powder sprinkled over it. The "Spicy" chicken is quite spicy. There are also daily specials for $5. I ordered online for pickup and the order did take a while - would recommend to order ahead if possible.

    Well, this location is super busy so my advice avoid waiting in line and order in advance via their website. I was in line and I decided to order in line. It is a bit slow but definitely better than waiting in line. The quality of their food is consistent with their other branches and I gotta say that I loved every bite of it! Their fries are amazing. All in all I think it's the best place Downtown Toronto.

    Heard about this place from others had to go try it for myself very happy I did their custard milk…read moreshakes are the absolute best I had the strawberry flavour also their fries are delicious some of the best I had so far highly recommend Staff is friendly and fast plus I love there is many employees working there which you don't see very often most places the company keeps understaffed What I don't particularly like is the place is quite loud and crowded but that's normal and understandable when you are a good place that means business is good people coming and going since it is the downtown core right beside the Dundas / Sankofa square that's why I gave 4 stars not five

The I Heart Butter Tart Concrete ($6.49) that I ordered was a little too much for myself. I did decide to go through and finish the ice cream / sundae just so I don't have anything to go. The interior of the place was properly though out and well designed. Self order stations are available to order from and the ordering interface is one of the better systems I have seen. When I dined in early afternoon on a weekday it was a rather slow day. There were a couple of Shake Shack employees constantly roaming about the premises ready to attend to any customer request. 1 such employee was thoughtful enough to serve me and a group of other customers some water. I have mixed feelings about the bathroom setup. Yes, it is clean and there were a few toilet rooms available, but it requires a code to be entered prior to using. The door screen shows as vacant but an employee still needs to give out the 4 digit code needed to access the toilets. I also found some issues with the water faucet sensors. It is inconsistently picking up my gestures resulting in an unreliable and unsteady flow of running water when I was washing my hands.

    Pastable is a food stall focusing on bowls of fusion pasta. The main components are one pasta, one…read moreprotein, one sauce, and three toppings. Everything is 100% halal. This is their second location, in a build with 3 other food vendors. It is mostly a takeout restaurant. There is a small counter where you could stand and eat. There are six set combinations. Or you can build your own pasta (BYOP) combo. On the soft-opening day (2025-01-20), they were offering an opening special of Mac N Cheese with BBQ Chicken sample and a drink for only $6.99. I ordered the following: 1. BYOP: Garlic Shrimp, penne, rose sauce, broccoli, black olives, mushrooms. It automatically comes with sliced green peppers and chopped parsley. 2. Opening Special ($6.99) x 2. For the BYOP, they didn't warn me it was medium spicy. I can handle it with a cold drink! The shrimp and penne were perfectly cooked. I loved the rose sauce. My choices of broccoli,  black olives, and mushrooms worked well together and with the base. The Opening Special was delicious; the Mac n Cheese part and BBQ Chicken were really good! Unfortunately, the BBQ was mildly spicy, and my son didn't like it; more for me! The customer service was good. It took them a long time to prepare the food (there were many orders prior to mine). But it was opening day, so hopefully, they will speed up their cooking. There is no free WiFi. The food stall is wheelchair accessible, but there is no door-open button. There are no customer washrooms. There is paid neighbourhood street parking. Review 2025-014

    I am always a bit skeptical when it comes to fusion spots. Typically, in my experience, usually the…read morecuisine leans more towards one side not necessarily fusing the two flavors well together. Similarly while I would not consider this quite a fusion restaurant, the food was indeed delicious! Most of the rice sides, had furikake sprinkled on top which always enhances the flavor. The sushi selection was good! The top items for me were the cod and lobster/shrimp udon. Again neither were quite executed as fusion (IMO) but nonetheless it was delicious! The steak was also good, but steak is more readily available on most menus elsewhere. The potato and egg salad as an app also made the top list. It was super creamy and paired nicely with the crunchy chips! The endless drink menu/option is also excellent, except I am not sure how much alcohol was actually in there because within the group of 13 people, most of us did not feel even slightly tipsy. The ambiance is beautiful and really embraces a jungle with vibrant colors intertwined into the interior. the bathroom however, is a different story as it is at the end of a very dark hallway. Not sure if they turn the lights on at night, but for someone with poor vision, it was hard to see as the light reflected off the walls. The servers were friendly and with a large group like ours, we did have some dishes that just never made it out so we did need to flag someone down for them about an hour or so in.

    I've been wanting to try Chotto Matte for a while, and it definitely lived up to the hype. The…read morerestaurant itself is a whole experience... it was super colourful, modern, and upscale without feeling too stiff. My friend and I were seated near the bar area, so instead of regular dining chairs, we had those lower, wider lounge-style seats. It made the whole experience feel a bit more relaxed while still fitting the upscale ambiance. We decided to go all out and order a variety of dishes so we could really experience what the restaurant had to offer. To start, my friend ordered the El Camino while I went with the Chicha Sagrada. Mine came with a toasted marshmallow on a skewer, which was such a fun touch. The drink itself was lightly sweet with a cinnamon flavour that kind of reminded me of cinnamon heart candies, but not overly spicy at all, super easy to sip between bites and conversation. For food, we started with the Yasai Miso Crispy Sushi. The crispy rice gives it such a satisfying crunch in every bite, and the veggie topping ties everything together nicely. Definitely one of those dishes you keep reaching for. The Yellowtail "Nikkei Sashimi" was fresh and evenly cut, and the yuzu soy sauce gave each bite a bright, citrusy finish. I was expecting a bit more truffle flavour, but the citrus really stood out instead and made the dish super refreshing. We also got the Dragon Roll. It looked fairly simple, but sometimes simple really works. The unagi sauce was drizzled around the plate as decoration, but once you dip the roll in, it brings everything together really well. The shrimp tempura inside was fried perfectly... still had a nice bite and wasn't mushy at all. The Pulled Asado Beef Taco was a standout for me. Super crunchy shell, really tender beef, and that slightly sweet creamy sauce with pickled veggies on top just worked so well together. We also shared the Chicken Sliders and Wagyu Sliders. The chicken was juicy and tender, but the bottom bun got quite soft from the sauce, making it a bit messy and harder to hold. Still tasty, just not the best texture. The Wagyu sliders, on the other hand, were easily our favourite of the night... super juicy beef, truffle coming through in every bite, and overall rich without feeling heavy. Overall, a really solid experience. The ambience alone makes it feel like a special night out, but the food holds up too, especially if you're into sharing plates and trying a bit of everything. It's definitely on the pricier side, but it feels worth it for the full experience.
