First time visiting this The Fry location, I remember this location many years ago as a Chinese food takeout location back in my younger years. Nice renovations and what they've done to the place. We had a dine in dinner meal here tonight and ordered Combo 2 which consists of selecting either bone in or boneless chicken and the option to select two different flavours. As well as one Rose Ricecake. We also ordered a side of French fries and onion rings to go with our meal. I particularly liked how each table had its own tablet device to place your order. This allowed me time to view the menu items which had pictures of each item and customization options.

The first two words that come to my mind when craving Korean fried chicken.... The Fry. This chain has grown to several locations and is now in Scarborough. This small restaurant is located in the main intersection of Sheppard Ave East and Birchmount Rd. This restaurant is located in a gas station plaza. There is parking in the rear as well as the side. When we entered, there were no customers, so we were seated right away. The decor has nice modern and hip decor. The chairs are upholstered, and the tables are solid laminated wood. The menu is pretty simple food on one side and bar menu on the other. We ordered the following items: 1. Green onion fried chicken bone-in $39.99 2. Crispy calamari $12.99 3. Coors light bottle $5.59 The large fried chicken came with cabbage salad with thousand island dressing, pickled daikon, and sizzling plate of corn. For $39.99, it's enough chicken to feed a family of 4. The crispy calamari was addictive and perfectly fried and not too oily. There's a thai chili dipping sauce to go with the calamari. I would have preferred a garlic aioli dipping sauce. Overall a great meal and plenty of left overs. The service wasn't the greatest and we were the only dine-in customers yet we kind of felt neglected and we had to wave down the server to get us refill of banchan. I would definitely recommend coming back here. Their KFC is juicy and delicious.

Supreme Chicken

Scarborough location is very small, but that doesn't mean it's bad. The waitress is more attentive since it's a smaller restaurant. The chicken is awesome. It's a good place to go if you want to try Korean Fried Chicken. Their portions are half or a full chicken, so be prepared spend. Flavours are classic. Nothing really stood out that's original in my opinion. However I'd still recommend to try The Fry. Rose tteokbokki was good and my favourite. Price = $$

Galbi fried chicken

Came for dinner on a Sunday night and it was not very busy inside. There were lots of take out orders. The door opens right into the restaurant so every time the door opens, it made sitting at the table very cold so had to keep our coats on while eating. You order through a tablet at the table so it was very easy. We ordered the combo which was half and half with up to 2 flavours of fried chicken to select and type of fries to select. We chose bone in soy garlic chicken and the galbi (add$1). For the fries, we chose the garlic butter fries (add $1). It also came with sides of pickled radish, corn and salad. The garlic butter fries were excellent and very tasty. The soy garlic chicken was good and fried perfectly. The galbi fried chicken was sweeter and stickier. Taste was good and the chicken was fried well.

The Fry is a popular chain. This location in particular had a bit of lag time due to the establishment operating only on one server. The food is still good, but I noticed that the quality and how they make the chicken sauces/toppings differ from my visits to different locations. All things considered, the space itself is quite small, so it will definitely feel more cozy in nature. Some of the combos/sides here are lacking in comparison to other locations (ex: Mac and Cheese as a side).

Honey spicy fried chicken
Philip L.

Food is good at this The Fry location. Even though this store is small with not many seats, limited parking space, weirdly located right at a gas station, totally worth it to visit here for their great Korean dishes, I think. Rosé Sauce Rice Cake with Glass Noodle. Interesting texture from the rice cake that matches well with their glass noodle. Combined well with bacon, ham, onion, smoky sausage, and top it up with the nicely made rosé sauce. Sweet, chewy, bouncy, nutmeg, blended with a mild smoky flavor. Serves in a hot pan. Perfecto. A solid 10/10. Half-n-half Korean fried chicken. Not bad. First off, Honey Spicy. Too much heat over the honey sweetness. One star deducted. Next off, The Original Taste. Okay, not bad. Well blended sauce with the chicken. However, the white meat are too dry compare to other typical Korean fried chicken places. Another star deducted. Nice server. $60 for 3 people, tax and tips all inclusive. It is a good deal. Quick and easy Korean meal on a Friday night that never gonna give you up, never gonna let you down, run around, and desert you. One star comes back and give us an overall 4 out of 5. Recommended. Try it out next time when you want Korean fried chicken.

The Fry is my favourite Korean fried chicken chain, and it's great that they have this new location in Scarborough! We came on a relatively quiet Wednesday night and were seated quickly! Service was friendly and attentive, there was only one waitress working that night but everything was brought to us quickly and smoothly. We got the special half and half chicken with secret savoury sauce and galbi sauce. I found the chicken at this location even better than the others, the inside/meat was extra juicy/moist while retaining that crispy saucy exterior. We also wanted to order some flavoured soju, but at the time of writing (2022-09-07) they haven't gotten their liquor licence yet. All in all, this is my favourite The Fry location and I look forward to coming back for more delicious food (and hopefully drinks soon too)!

The fry never disappoints ! Decided to try something different this time. Ordered their Green Onion Chicken (Small), Original Crispy Fried Chicken (Small), Cheese Powdered Fries, and Deep Fried Seaweed Rolls. For two people we definitely over ordered ... seating is rather limited.. we waited about 30 minutes for a seat which in my opinion isn't too bad for a weekend. Food didn't take too long either after placing our order which I was very pleased with. My first time trying their Cheese Powder Fries... excuse my language but holy they were addicting !! Overall it was an amazing meal. We know for next time to not order so much .. I highly recommend checking them out . . .

My favourite Korean fried chicken spot, it's super crunchy and their rice cakes are also so yummy with some glass noodles!

Everything that we got (wrong order! Wrong flavour!)
Nikki Y.

Ordered take out over the phone at 11:10pm (they close at 1am) we went in to pay and told her we got combo 1, she asked me if I wanted to turn it into combo 1?? why wouldn't a normal person want to save $2 just to consider it a "combo" even though we've ordered exactly everything in combo 1 after a 25mins wait, she forgot our fries and ran out to give it to us (which is great but), she got our order wrong and gave us half original and half spicy instead of the garlic soy flavour I ordered. I tried to call them multiple times but they purposely didn't answer my calls. I expect a refund. We ordered half and half with small fries and coke for $45.74 +tip. 10% off for cash

July 21 - Spicy Rice Cakes
Ann B.

July 21 - I'm so happy that The Fry is very close by. They never disappoint! Only one thing I wish they had was the milky yogurt soju (not sure if that is the right name) but I've only seen it at one location, which was downtown (cries). The cheese powder fries are amazing, definitely will have to go back sometime soon for dinner. I ordered Cheese Powdered Fries and Spicy Rice Cake 5/5.

Stapler sim in the chicken

Terrible experience on Christmas. I ordered chicken via uber and it took around 1hour and a half. It was okay since I knew that the staff would be very busy today. But the chicken I received is cold and has stapler sim like the picture. I called the staff and they aplogized. But I don't want to order again..

The food here is really good

Been eying this place for awhile and finally got to try it. We got the Chickaron fries as a light…read moresnack . The fries come in different in different colours , with each representing a different flavour. My personal flavour were the yellow and orange colour chicken fries which was turmeric and tomato flavour. The spice level we picked was light and it was for perfect for me - someone who can't really handle much spice The thing I love the most about these chicken fries is it had just the right amount seasoning and crunch too it . Didn't feel really oily either. Price is a tad steep $ 10.05 for fries but since it's actually chicken , it seemed ok . I will go back to buy the actual chicken cup as that seems like a better value and I'll get to pick my fav flavour !

The colouring on the chicken fries is supposed to be natural from ground up ingredient powders. I'm not sure if the owner is taiwanese or mainlander but he was really friendly. Didn't have any tissues and also no washroom at inside this unit, but he went to his CAR and grabbed me some wet naps to clean my hands which was really kind of him. The cutlet itself was breaded well, crispy and the chicken was juicy. The price is kinda steep so if it would've been a lil cheaper I'd award 5 stars. I'm keen to try some chicken fries with cuttlefish or tomato powder on the batter next time. It's a relatively chill spot and I don't think it's as well known as it's competitors, Monga or Hot Star, but it holds its own imo.

Jollibee is one of the most recognizable Filipino fast food chains, known for its crispy fried…read morechicken, sweet-style spaghetti, and signature Peach Mango Pie. We walked into a busy, energetic space that stays lively throughout the day, with a steady flow of customers moving through the line. The dining room is casual and functional, the kind of place where the focus stays on the food rather than the atmosphere, and the bright, cheerful decor adds to the brand's playful identity. The Chickenjoy is easily the star of the menu. We ordered a few pieces and found the chicken had a crispy, well-seasoned coating while staying juicy inside, and it was even better dipped in the savory gravy that comes on the side. The spicy version added a noticeable kick without overpowering the chicken itself, and the balance of seasoning and heat made it a satisfying choice. The Peach Mango Pie is another must-order, with its flaky crust and warm, fruity filling that makes for one of the best fast food desserts around, and we found ourselves wishing we had ordered a second one. The Jolly Spaghetti is uniquely Filipino, featuring a sweet tomato sauce with sliced hot dogs and cheese, and while it is definitely different from traditional Italian pasta, it is worth trying if you want the full Jollibee experience. Other popular choices like the palabok and burger steak round out the menu with more Filipino-inspired flavors, giving you options beyond the standard fried chicken meal. The restaurant stays busy throughout the day, so waits during peak hours are common, but the staff generally keep orders moving as quickly as possible. Service is friendly, and despite the crowds, the dining room is usually kept clean and organized. The team handles the steady flow efficiently, and the turnover is fast enough that the wait does not feel excessive. Prices have increased over the years, making it less of a bargain than it once was, but the portions are satisfying and the food is consistently fresh. Jollibee remains one of the best fast food options if you are craving fried chicken with something a little different. Between the crispy Chickenjoy, iconic Peach Mango Pie, and unique Filipino menu, it is a place that is easy to recommend whether you are a longtime fan or visiting for the first time, offering a meal that feels both familiar and distinct, and a taste of Filipino fast food culture that stands out from the usual chains.

Consistency this joint has is in bland, unsalted tough fries. It was as if I was eating celery sticks, not fries.

The fans they were running helped a little but we were still pretty uncomfortable throughout our meal. Not a great start. We shared seafood pancake, japchae, budae jjigae, stir-fried soondae, bossam and katsu for the kids. Although most of our orders were pretty good, our katsu came doused in the katsu sauce which we asked our server to leave out. They offered to make a new one, but by this point we were all pretty hungry and wanted to get on with our meal, so we just took it with the sauce. I didn't like their kimchi as it was way too sour to be used as banchan. Other sides were also just average, with no stand outs in execution or flavour. Although the food was ok, our visit was just ho hum. Not sure if I would return to eat here again.
