I have been on the search for good halal fried chicken and I heard good things about this place. I haven’t been in person yet, I ordered through uber eats. Scarborough has the best fried chicken that I tasted and this is at the top of my list . Only negative thing I’ll say is, I feel like the excess oil could have been drained off, I could literally taste the oil itself when eating the skin.

The customer service was the best, The brother at the front consistently helped and assisted with all my needs. Fried chicken was cooked to perfection with crispy skin on top, would definitely come back here again.

I've been coming here for a long time the quality of food is always the same and fresh. I highly recommend the Philly cheese steak or Philly steak fries. The tenders are amazing and the cheese burger is my new favorite. -There is no longer a bathroom available. -Stores hours have also extended there open till 2am I believe. NOTE: they don’t except Visa/MasterCard

The philly cheese steak is best, would highly recommend it. Also got the onion rings and chicken nuggets with BBQ sauce, super good but would highly recommend the Philly cheese steak 100%. Trust you wont be disappointed . Enjoy.
