Authentic and delicious. The restaurant is always playing K-pop on the TV and the air conditioning is permanently kept on cold- bring a sweater! As mentioned, everything from the sauce to the main course was delicious. The rosé ttebokki we ordered was a bit spicy, the sweet and sour crispy chicken was perfect to kill the spice.

How can I be eating Korean fried chicken week after week? I was beginning to wonder will I ever get enough of it. After trying the Galbi Fried Chicken here, I just know my love affair with Korean fried chicken is far from over.

April 30, 2024

t's obvious they've trimmed the meat for bonless and then fried the leftover bones. More than half was like that! I never called restaurant About the portion or something… I called them about it they never admitted or apologized, they said today’s chicken was small, it’s irregular. ??? I asked girl to show this picture to the owner who was just beside her, they said they will, but few minutes later they closed for the day and didn’t pick up the phone. Do not waste your money

Step aside Kentucky fried chicken cuz we got Korean fried chicken up in Aurora! We came on a quiet Thursday evening and ordered the mixed bonless fried chicken (in green onion and spicy savory sauce toppong) and rosé ttekboki combo. To be honest it was a lot of food for 2 people, so definitely recommend the combo for 4-5 people instead, but we wanted to have variety and in my opinion it worth it! The chicken was crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside, and the toppings were outstanding with lots of flavour. I did enjoy the green onion chicken more as I liked the slight punch that the green onion gives with each bite of the crispy chicken, it was much yum! We also got cheese corn on the house, very nice of the restaurant, a gem in Aurora :)

Fast service and excellent crispy fried chicken! Had the crispy chicken, soy garlic (my favourite), galbi sauce chicken and rose rice cakes (excellent chew and flavour). All the chicken was extremely flavourful and juicy. They threw in cheese corn for free! Will definitely be going back to try their other flavours

Korean Fried Chicken Boneless Chicken with Green Onion • Boneless Chicken in Spicy Sauce The boneless chicken with green onion came with so much green onion! So nice! 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻 Makes it a bit less guilty to eat. 😆 The spicy sauce was so good 🤤 super yummy that it’s hot and also sweet. 😋 The chicken was cooked perfectly, it’s so juicy and crispy. 🔥🔥🔥 The best KFC in town.

Server was excellent, great attitude and very informative. Food was fresh and tasty. Even though it's fried chicken it's not oily or greasy. We also had the Egg soup, which was light and fluffy with lots of flavour. Will be returning to try every dish we didn't try today.

Excellent food and service. We got complementary pickle radish, salad, and corn. They have a weekday lunch special for $9.99 and the portions were huge. We ordered the crispy boneless chicken with fries, chicken mayo rice, and rose cake. All the food was excellent and fresh.

I made a silly mistake of not checking the chicken box properly, went back and asked for a side dish. Without a hesitation the employee got me another side dish with a full smile. I would like to apologize and also thank them for the beautiful service and awesome food, as always!

My go-to spot when my parents refuse to cook me dinner. The fries are fantastic, the chicken is great, they give you free cheese corn (idk what its called), pickled radish, and this coleslaw looking thing (it smells weird so I dont touch it personally, but its a free side and my mom loved it when I brought her so its prob just me). Also, you get a 10% discount if you pay with cash. The price:portion ratio is more reasonable than usual sit down dinners, even more so with the discount. Its a small place so they only have 1 staff, but theyre always super nice, and they always have K-Pop playing on the TV and speakers if youre a twitter stan. I plan to keep coming back. W food, W staff, W Korea.

Listen I love the food right, but this is the second time in a row the chicken is not in sauce and the order was missing rice. Please have someone who speaks English to avoid the language barrier chicken is too expensive for you not to get right. 2 times in a row! The location on yonge near Sheppard never make these mistakes.

Ordered consomme chicken and hot cheesing, both didnt have taste. They lack flavor. If i wanted fried chicken, I would have ordered the original. The only things that had taste were fries, radish, and ketchup, lol. Tried calling the store to tell them about it, but they didnt pick up. Couldnt enjoy dinner. Wasted 50$ on my order. Radish was good tho.

After a tiring fitness class, my friends and I needed to refuel and saw The Fry in the same plaza! I ve been to other locations of this chain and it is a great go-to spot for Korean fried chicken. What we ordered: - Boneless chicken in sauce - Garlic Butter Fries - Order comes with radish, a cold slaw, and butter corn in a skillet My Favs: - If you re a fan of the Haitai Honey Butter Chips, you ll love the garlic butter fries! They re crispy, slightly sweet, and a great accompaniment to your chicken Final Thoughts: As mentioned above, The Fry is a great go-to chain for KFC and it has always satisfied any cravings. Great to see a location further up north. Location is not that big, but staff are friendly and we were seated right away on a Tuesday evening.

This place will definitely slot into the rotation somehow. Fried chicken at its best, in my opinion. It seemed like there was just so much food...so much chicken. We were 4 and we probably could have ordered half as much food, and we each only ordered 1 plate each, and 1 order of garlic fries. The staff was super polite and friendly. Love it. KFC and Popeyes have nothing on them. The chicken was fresh, the batter was light and ultra crispy. Clockwise from the garlic butter french fries, -supreme chicken -galbi chicken -signature chicken -half and half chicken l, with signature chicken and fried chicken

I tried the Green Onion Chicken(L) and Fried Chicken in Sauce(S). Both of them are very delicious, especially the Fried Chicken in Sauce which is hard to stop myself from eating more. Also, we had Cheese Fries. Picked Radish which is helpful to take after having deep fried dishes are provided for free The size is more than we expected and so we (3 adults & 2 kids) couldnt finish them all. Service is something that has to be improved. The voice on the call doesnt sound clear enough, hand free was used maybe... Also, its confirmed that Ill have 10% off by paying in cash... But then I found from the receipt that discount was not given...

We called here tonight around 8:50pm. They close at 9:30pm and their last call is at 9:00pm. I tried to make a take-out order and they flat out refused to take the order because their last call ended. I asked when the last call was and she said yeah our last call is at 9 but since it s only a few minutes before our last call we are closed. I don t know what kind of thought process this is but it is just ridiculous.

December 21, 2023

I guess they expected customer to pay Tip when we order take out. Expected $20 bill change or any other bills. But all I got was quarters and loonies and twonie. Food

This is my first time ordering from The Fry Aurora, Ive been craving fish cake soup for a loooong time. Their soup was kinda bland and doesnt have enough noodles in it, unlike where I usually order from (the fry in toronto). I moved from Toronto to Richmond Hill & was glaad when I found a branch nearby! Also, the cheesling fried chicken only had cheese on top and the rest of the chicken didnt have much. It felt like I ordered a regular one :/ The Fry is one of my go-to restau when I got no time to cook at home.. so this is kinda disappointing for a first-time order :/

A new restaurant in Aurora.....THE FRY specializes in Korean fried chicken. My wife and I decided to try it and dine in. The space is well laid out with about 8 tables and can probably seat 30 or so people when full. The washrooms are large, clean, bright and very clean. The young restaurant staff are friendly and very attentive. The food is fresh, tasty and very plentiful. In fact, unknowing the size of the portions, my wife and I decided to order the half & half chicken, which was huge. It provides a large basket of crispy fried chicken and a 2nd basket of the sweet and sour chicken. The order is accompanied by a plate of pickled cucumber and a side of Korean coleslaw. All excellent tasting. We made the mistake of also ordering a side of French fries, which were absolutely cooked perfectly and delicious but the chicken order was so big we just couldnt eat it all. Taking home 2 boxes when we were done. I provided a few suggestions to the staff when I left. Those being: advise patrons how many people each order is designed to feed and 2nd...turn down the music in the restaurant. I rate this place 5 star, all well done and happy to recommend it. Well be sure to return again

Came to The Fry on a Tuesday evening and there were a few tables ahead of us. We ordered a small green onion chicken and a small Supreme chicken. Both dishes came fast, hot and tasty. Portions are big for the small size (as seen in the photos) and flavours are on point, just like the North York and downtown locations. We were served 3 sides: sweet corn, radish and nappa cabbage...? The staff was friendly and the restaurant+washroom was very clean. Its so good to see another fried chicken joint in Aurora! Note: 5 star review because there is no option for 4.75. And there are no daily specials.
