The server was so nice!! We got half half ( Crispy and supreme) and fries. The portion was big and super tasty.

I had an amazing dining experience! The food was not only visually appealing but also incredibly delicious. The sweet potato fries were perfectly crispy, and the dip that accompanied them added a flavorful kick. The broth from the soup was light yet packed with flavor, filled with various tasty ingredients like fish cakes and vegetables. And the fried chicken was to die for—crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, with just the right amount of spice. The overall atmosphere was cozy, and the service was prompt and friendly. Definitely a place I'd visit again!

Ordered take out wings from this place a few weeks ago. Some reviewers have said the take out version is sauced unevenly, but I did not find this to be the case. Some weird pieces such as part of the spine bone with vertebrae, but not a deal breaker. I really liked the chicken and would order them again. The fries were soggy, but likely due to this being a take out order.

Went here after a concert (Ateez!!!) because we had a craving for Korean food and we had heard about The Fry a couple of months ago. The food definitely didn't disappoint. We ordered the Butter Garlic Fries and they were heavenly. Had a hint of sweetness to it but it was balanced out pretty well with the saltiness from the garlic. We also ordered the Hot Cheesling Chicken, which was very cheesy but not very hot. I think it would have been a lot more tasty if it was spicy, but it was still pretty good. It was also a bit pricey but I guess that's kind of expected for Toronto XD! There was only one person working the counter, which was ok for the time we went at, but it probably wouldn't be good during a more busy time. The atmosphere inside was very nice and ambient, but the lights were super dim so it kind of felt dark as soon as we walked in. Overall though, a pretty good place for some late night korean munchies.

I recently visited The Fry and had an exceptional time. Wonderful service. It was a beautiful day so they opened the front sliding door for a patio like experience. We tried their new grapefruit Korean drink called an Ade. It was sweet and delicious, with a bright and aromatic flavor that was incredibly refreshing. For our meal, we ordered the Supreme Chicken. It was perfectly crunchy and plainly seasoned, allowing the sauce to truly shine. The Supreme sauce was a delightful blend of sweet, tangy, and rich flavors—extremely unique and highly recommendable. We also had the Green Onion Fried Chicken, which was fantastic. We opted for the spicy sauce on the side, which had just the right level of spice. The sauce also paired wonderfully with the Supreme chicken, creating a harmonious flavor combination. Overall, The Fry delivered an outstanding dining experience with their innovative drinks and delicious fried chicken. Highly recommend giving it a try!

I can’t quite remember all the flavors we tried, but they were all super yummy. Really loved the rose tteokbokki, and the cheese corn was so solid too. Overall, The Fry is a yummy place for fried chicken!

It was our first time to The Fry. It was through reviews that we decided to give it a try. We ordered the soy garlic chicken bone-in with the rice cakes and fries with the garlic butter. Luckily we didn’t ordered too much because what we did ordered the taste was not I expected. The chicken was too sweet as well the fries with the garlic butter was totally a write off for me. I did not expect it to taste like icing sugar. The chicken pieces were mostly breading and bone. The taste of the food is on me because we chose it. I should have remembered that their taste profile is on the sweet side. But the chicken pieces was not right for what we paid. Service from our server was attentive, it was the highlight of our experience here.

I heard there was a 30% discount on takeout until today, so I visited and got chiseling + soy sauce. Ive had chiseling and seasoning 2-3 times in the past and it was really delicious. By the way, I think the chiseling powder is also 30% off??? OMG, only the upper chicken had powder sprinkled on it, and the chickens below had no powder at all, so it looked like someone had accidentally spilled a bit of powder on the fried chicken...even the kids asked if mom had sprinkled powder on it herself... How much chiseling powder does it take to save so much... If youre going to sprinkle it like this, why not give it a 30% discount! I remember eating really delicious chiseling in the past, so its been a while since I ordered it, but after eating it today, I thought Id never order from here again. I thought about calling the chicken as soon as I got home, but I just wrote this review so that many people can take note. Ive really lost my appetite. Im disappointed (Im giving it a star because the server was kind)

Ive tried this The Fry and the one further up north, also on Yonge. Both were good, tasty food and pleasant service. Saw the deal banner as I walked by this location and thought I would post it up, comes at a good time as colder weather settles in and you want to chow down on some solid food. Buy some chicken to unlock 30% off the entire menu to go (no alcohol, no combining offers). Enjoy!

--- **Review of The Fry** The Fry is an extraordinary culinary experience that brilliantly elevates the humble fried food to gourmet status. From the moment you step through the door, the atmosphere invites you into a world where comfort food meets sophisticated dining. The décor strikes a perfect balance between modern chic and cozy familiarity, creating a warm ambiance that sets the tone for an unforgettable meal. The menu is thoughtfully curated, featuring a wide variety of fried dishes, each showcasing unique flavors and high-quality ingredients. What sets The Fry apart is its commitment to innovation. Classic favorites like french fries, onion rings, and tempura vegetables are elevated with unexpected twists. The truffle parmesan fries are a standout; they are perfectly crispy, coated in just the right amount of truffle oil, and generously sprinkled with fresh parmesan, creating a delightful umami explosion with every bite. One of the highlights of the menu is the selection of dipping sauces, each crafted with care and creativity. The garlic aioli is rich and creamy, while the house-made spicy ketchup adds a kick that complements the flavors beautifully. The variety ensures that each visit can offer a new tasting experience, encouraging diners to explore and experiment with different combinations. For those seeking something beyond the usual, The Fry offers an array of gourmet fried dishes that push the boundaries of traditional frying. The fried avocado tacos are a perfect example; the crispy exterior gives way to a creamy, perfectly ripe avocado, all wrapped in a warm tortilla. Paired with a zesty lime crema, this dish is a delightful fusion of textures and flavors that leaves a lasting impression. The drink menu also deserves commendation. The cocktail selection features innovative creations that perfectly complement the food. The Fried Spritz is refreshing and light, making it an ideal pairing with the more indulgent fried offerings. For those who prefer non-alcoholic options, the house-made sodas provide a unique twist on classic flavors, enhancing the overall dining experience. Service at The Fry is impeccable. The staff is knowledgeable, attentive, and genuinely passionate about the food they serve. They are eager to make recommendations and are well-versed in the intricacies of the menu. The enthusiasm of the staff enhances the dining experience, making guests feel welcome and valued. Desserts at The Fry are the cherry on top of an already stellar meal. The deep-fried cheesecake bites are a must-try, perfectly balancing rich and creamy with a crunchy exterior. Each bite is a delightful treat that encapsulates the essence of indulgence, leaving diners with a sweet finish to their culinary journey. Overall, The Fry is a brilliant concept that successfully reimagines fried food in an upscale setting. It s a place where comfort and creativity collide, making it a must-visit for food lovers and casual diners alike. Whether you re looking for a casual bite or a full-fledged dining experience, The Fry delivers on all fronts. This gem is sure to become a favorite spot for anyone who appreciates innovative cuisine served with a side of genuine hospitality. Five stars without hesitation!
