Social enterprise Korean Fried Chicken restaurant with a mission of hiring neurodivergent talent and providing a safe space for everyone to dine in. We offer sensory boxes and a sensory room for customers to use. We use local halal chicken and the sauces are all made in house in small batches. 사랑키친
Ordered the sarang chicken platter which was delicious! The serving portion was very generous, it’s meant for 2 people but you could honestly share between 3-4. The chicken was very juicy and fresh. My boyfriend and I really enjoyed this place, friendly staff and delicious food!
The food was plentiful and delicious, and the presentation was absolutely stunning! The staff were incredibly kind and attentive, making it such an enjoyable dining experience. Highly recommend!
Amazing food!! Definitely some of the best Korean fried chicken we have had. I think what makes this place stand out is their unique flavours, which you will not find elsewhere (like salted egg yolk). Plus the staff are really friendly and helpful.
We went there around 3pm on Saturday and i must say its a bad time to go specially with 2 kids. Wait time was almost like 40/45 min. Few tables were open up soon but those are for 2 peoples only not for a family of 4. So you may have to face high wait time. They will take your number and call you once a table is open. We have tried fried chicken as its halal, we took portion for 1. We tried 2 different flavors- bro soy garlic fried chicken which tasted really good, another flavor was the whicked one where the sauce comes with mustard & honey, frankly didnt like this flavor much in comparison to the other one. Only 2 staffs were there and it was crazy busy. Their menu will say tips not encouraged but while paying the machine will show the tips option. So its up-to you. Overall i found the food was really expensive, 1 portion platter costs almost $26.9 which seems quite high. I will say may be one of the expensive fried chicken you will eat.
Sarang Kitchen exceeded our expectations! Friendly staff, generous portions, and delicious food made for a fantastic experience. And let's be real, Choice Bro is the ultimate winner! Highly recommended! ✌🏾✌🏾
Sarang Kitchen is a fantastic find for anyone craving delicious Korean cuisine, especially their renowned fried chicken. This vibrant spot offers a diverse menu that not only caters to meat lovers but also provides an impressive selection of vegetarian options, including mock versions of their crispy fried chicken. It’s great to see a place that genuinely considers various dietary preferences! The food is packed with flavor, and the different sauce options available allow you to customize your meal to suit your taste. Whether you prefer something spicy, sweet, or savory, there’s a sauce for everyone. Plus, the atmosphere is playful, with sensory toys available for those who want to indulge in some light-hearted fun while waiting for their meal. Seating at Sarang Kitchen is a mix of cozy floor seating and comfortable booths, creating an inviting and casual dining experience. One unique aspect of this restaurant is its no-tipping policy. While the prices may be a bit on the higher side, I believe the taste of the food make it well worth the occasional splurge. The service is friendly and attentive, enhancing the overall experience. If you’re in the mood for flavorful Korean food, Sarang Kitchen is definitely a spot to check out!
I recently visited Sarang Kitchen for the second time, and once again, it did not disappoint! We tried the Platter for 2, which included boneless Soy Garlic and Sweet as 2 (spice level 2), and it was absolutely delicious. The chicken was crispy on the outside, tender on the inside, and the flavors were perfectly balanced. The portion size was generous—definitely more than enough for two people. Without a doubt, this is the best Korean fried chicken in the city. The staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming.The environment is cozy and comfortable. If you’re craving authentic and flavorful Korean fried chicken, Sarang Kitchen is the place to be. Highly recommend!
The food was amazing! Went there yesterday and had an amazing experience. I got the classic fried chicken and the other people in my party got the wicked chicken. Along with some regular fried and cheese fries. The food came out quickly, we like how the place was sensory friendly and diverse dining options. The menu had great options and the staff was friendly and amazing. Food was delicious, the house made mayo as well was a personal favourite and we for sure plan to come back one day in the future and try different menu items. Overall 10/10 will eat again.
Everything was great! The food was amazing. Best korean fried chicken Ive ever had!
The experience was great!
I love it, from Vietnamese. Its supper good
Great Korean fried chicken! The sweet chilli one is definitely my favourite!
Very good place. PLEASE BRING THE TWO PERSON CHALLENGE BACK !!!
The flavour I got was kinda oily and they didn t service water in time
Sarang Kitchen is great as an equal opportunity employer, all the staff were awesome, very kind and helpful. I do wish the menu had a little more options (especially vegetarian), as most items are deep fried americanized food of some kind. Still, pretty good fried chicken!
The food at this restaurant is absolutely outstanding! Each dish was a masterpiece, crafted with fresh ingredients and incredible attention to detail. The flavors were perfectly balanced, and every bite was a delight. Thanks alot to the chef and all the kitchen member for the taste of food that i want to have.... The service was impeccable attentive, friendly, and professional. I would like to thanks to my server Prema and Ashna....The way you guys serve and interact with the customers it was soo soooo sooooo outstanding
Had the best experience at Sarang Kitchen. The drinks were amazing. Must try the melano mocktail/cocktail.
Fantastic idea, excellent food and portions
My go to chicken place xD
Little confused arrived at 1020pm. The guy in the front said the kitchen was closed but their Uber order was still open for another 10 mins. Then I heard them whispering saying we will be ordering too slow.. wasn t expecting that treatment
I ve been here twice and been ordering via uber eats as well. I have no complain with their food as they are all amazing, atmosphere is good too but today, I must say, we had a not very nice customer experience . We walked in to this place to have lunch and our server looks nice and welcoming in the beginning. The place is not quite busy for a Saturday, which I am also surprised. Anyway, we asked for table for two and our server gave us the one that is closer to the entrance. Due to the cold weather and with us wearing a bunch of jacket and sweaters plus the big bags that we are carrying we find the table too small for us so we nicely asked if we can actually get a table from further down the back. Instantly, our server responded NO, it s for larger group of people which I totally understand if the place is packed and busy. But okay, we proceed with ordering because we are hungry anyway and just ignore it. Fast forward to almost finishing our meal, there is a couple who came in and asked for table for two and initially given a table beside us. The lady then requested if they can move further down, and to my suprise, our server awarded them with their request. This experience made us wonder why we were treated so differently and made us think if we want to go here again. But whatever, for the spirit of holiday season we did not try to make it an issue while we were there and still left a 5$ tip. We have no complain about the food, but we were not happy with our server
The fried chicken is out of this world!
We wanted to try korean fried chicken for so long and came across this one in Toronto. The place is super small but cute. Loved the service and the fried chicken was scrumptious will definitely be coming for more.
Angel was so amazing the food was also super amazing. Very nice how they have a sensory area Food
The chicken is chickening here. Very friendly people and service is amazing.
Everytime I come here the food always bangs

Excellent Korean fried chicken! Spicy is VERY spicy, fair warning. The mushroom fries are a great appetizer. Portions are also large, I couldnt finish a singles portion on my own.
Food is great. Watch for the spice level. $$$$ Dietary restrictions: Halal chicken
I m so glad I found this spot during my short trip to Toronto! The fried chicken was hands down the best I ve ever had crispy, juicy, and full of flavor. The staff were also amazing, making the experience even better. Highly recommend!
The fried chicken here is pretty much perfect.
6 stars if I could very good service come here it s tasty
Not enough diversity on menu. I would like to order just small or regular portions of chicken and sides but that option was not available. Very limited menu I ordered the truffle fries which were very tasty but was not impressed and there was no taste of truffle just mushroom and onion. The fries were also very overpriced. Plus ..... no other option to drink....except water! Insanity! The whole ambiance was very weird. I will not be back NO thanks!
The food was go great! Nice service and the portion sizes were perfect. 10/10 recommend!
The place has very good food, and decent price
Amazing food! Loved the chicken, squid, and sauce selection. Will definitely be back.
Wow!! Just happened to be in the neighbourhood and discovered this gem! The best Korean Fried Chicken in the city - so juicy, so flavourful! And the servers were super nice and welcoming! Got a complimentary probiotic milk as dessert :) Will come again!
How I wish there were more restaurants like this!!! There are beanbags, the music is very quiet, there s a sensory room. My ND kids felt right at home. And the food, well, the food is delicious. I hope they re starting a trend of ND inclusive restaurants!
Really love this place. The fried chicken is the best in the city but also everyone who works here is always so lovely! Support small businesses people:)
Best fried chicken in the city with very friendly service
Excellent!! We loved the fried chicken! Vegetarian options: Some vegetarian options Dietary restrictions: Halal available
I recently had dinner at Sarang Kitchen with a group of friends, and we all had a great time! The food was delicious, the service was friendly, and the atmosphere was lively. We started off with the Sarang platter, which was a great way to try a variety of different dishes. The platter included a variety of appetizers, such as pickled radish, cabbage coleslaw, tornado-cut chips, whole crispy squid , 2 flavours of Korean fried chicken and 4 dipping sauces. Everything was fresh and flavorful. The highlight of the platter were the fried chicken, the exterior was fried to be perfectly crispy while maintaining a juicy and tender interior. The batter is seasoned to perfection, offering a satisfying blend of savory and slightly sweet notes and we appreciated that the wings had customizable spice levels. The variety of dipping sauces that complement the crispy chicken beautifully, adding an extra layer of flavour and texture. We also ordered the spicy rice cake, which I found a little sweeter than Id prefer but was loaded with plenty of rice cakes, fish cakes, veggies, eggs and ramen. Having makgoelli and soju were the perfect accompaniments. The service at Sarang Kitchen was also excellent. Our server was attentive and friendly, and he was able to answer all of our questions about the menu. Overall, we had a great experience at Sarang Kitchen, and I would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a fun and delicious night out with friends. This place is also great for those who need a quiet and calm dining experience as they offer a sensory room, sensory boxes, dimmed lighting and calming music.
Cheesy kimchi rice was delicious, golden lava chicken was unique and really grew on us, loved it and the bulgogi beef on fries was our favourite dish, would come back just for that for sure. Really clean, very friendly.
Amazing service. Wonderful food!
Amazing service. Wonderful food.
Amazing food and vibe. Great service. They have spicy options that are actually spicy. They are very welcoming. And no tip option is amazing. Parking: Best to come by bus or walking. Or if you are willing to walk you can park further
The food, the service, and everything are amazing. Very recommended Food
Came from NJ to visit friends and family and one of them recommended coming here. We ended up getting wicked fried chicken and spicy rice cake Ramen. Food was delicious and quick to get to the table. Highly recommend
This place is bussin
An amazing sensory friendly experience tied to the best Korean fried chicken around Toronto! Having tried 4 of their chicken flavors, Sambal, Sweet n Spicy, Truffle, Salted Egg Yolk, each bite was a blast and blew us out of the water! Will be trying them out again, would recommend for a welcoming staff and atmosphere.
Great food and atmosphere. Prices are fair and stuff is great!
Super friendly people and amazing food! Great for a cozy night out with friends :)
Super great food and a lovely staff would definitely come here again!
Kimchi fried rice was yummy. Friendly and kind service. Food came quickly. Chill and comfortable vibe. Will come back!
Great food, lots of choices. Packed with flavor
Ashna is the best and made the food amazing.
K-platter here was best
I really like the food sooo yummy ! And the service is good
Love Sarang Kitchen. The fried chicken is excellent. Bone in or bone out, you cant go wrong. I appreciate what an inclusive space theyve created here - I hope more restaurants follow this lead. Its a great addition to the neighborhood. You wont regret checking this place out.
Great food and great service!
Great food but a little bit too oily for me . Service is nice and waiters are very friendly! Vegetarian options: Fried cauliflower
You could feel the oil when you ate the chicken and the hot dog came without sausage
Absolutely blown away by the experience and the food! Great food, very tasty and large portions! Helpful staff Amazing policies This is the type of business that deserves a shout out, keep doing a great job everyone.
Worst Korean fried chicken ever. Everything on the menu was disgustingly sweet and extra oily. The chips were even sweet. Cheese powder was just sugar powder, no cheese taste. So much batter and oil on the chicken and barely any meat. Worst dining experience ever in the city. Should shut down and pay their customers back.
A very comfortable place really, very good quiet atmosphere
Went here with friends and we got the sarang feast. The portions were great and the chicken was crisp even with the sauce on it. Super flavourful and probably one of my favourites for Korean fried chicken. I also like that they have a sensory room which is quite unique. Would definitely come back!
Will defintely visit again! Great people and food and ethos
Miso garlic is really good
Amazing food! I ll definitely be back Parking: Just around the corner Food : 5/5 |
It was me and my girlfriends first time here at Sarang and we both thought it was better than we even expected. We got the onion rings and seaweed rolls to start, and a platter of Sweet as and Choice Bro . The staff was friendly the food was great and affordable. I recommend it to anyone and will definitely be back.
I really love it. The food here is so good.
The place was so cozy and comfortable!! The food is really good! Vegetarian options: It has vegetarian options for my friends Kid-friendliness: servers are very kind and good
Food was very good. And service also.
Excellent treatment, and the food was exquisite 100/10
Second Visit We returned on a Monday (less busy) and loved the Wicked fried chicken and bulgogi chorrillana. Service was outstanding. - First Visit We loved the atmosphere and concept, although its always full and hard to get a seat. The appetizer plate was OK, specially the seaweed rolls. They have Asian individually packed ice cream as well. Will go back to try fried chicken and mains.
we rly enjoyed hardcase, snowed under, and sweet as!! good price good value good taste
Good food
Overall solid dining experience
Great food, good portions, and a fun atmosphere! Plus the takeout containers are really robust which is always a plus for me.
Yummy I loved it
Food was delicious and the server Ashna was really nice to us and took a really good care of us. Will visit again for sure. Thankyouuu so muchhhh Food

My colleagues and I recently visited this establishment to celebrate a colleagues accomplishment. It was our first time dining there, and we were thoroughly impressed with the quality of the food. I highly recommend this restaurant to anyone seeking a delicious meal. #halalfood
Awesome
Amazing chicken, out of this world flavour especially if you do the spicy challenge, you ll be thinking about it for days ..
AMAZING crispy friend experience! After decades of fried chicken, this is beyond anything I ve had. Absolute must try.
amazing food and great service Vegetarian options: halal food and vegetarian options Food : 5/5 |
Amazing food and amazing service really enjoyed.
I love the kitchen nest
Love the food!
The Sambal Oelek was what I had and it was somewhat spicy. Not a lot of sauce but a-lot of fried garlic and chilli toppings. I would reduce the amount of oil as there was a lot of oil left on the bottom soaking the crispy chicken. Mushroom truffle fries is a must get! The fries were crispy and the truffle cheese was prevalent.
With amazing food they also have a great atmosphere.
Chicken tasted great. It took way too long to get our order and the appetizer never came. Some logistics to figure out but food was tasty.
Great place!! Excellent and very friendly staff
Amazing food and service
This place was very nice. One of the best fried chicken and service we have experienced in a while. Loved it!
Amazing food and service, best fried chicken I ve had in awhile. Will revisit soon!
(Visited while traveling) The chicken is a little salty, but crispy and delicious, and the Japanese staff are friendly. I think its good value for money.
Very friendly relaxed vibe. The fried chicken is super crispy and juicy. Must try if you re in the area!!
I normally dont give all 5 stars but this one deserve it. Im from Vancouver and tried Korean there. Sarang Kitchen wins by far on all levels. Will definitely come back Inshallah. Kid-friendliness: Our kid is 13 yo and usually hard to control in restaurants. He was really enjoying their sensory room and all the toys they offer. Amazing family experience!
The food is sooo nice. It was my first time to try a hot pot dish I enjoyed it. I ll definitely will come back again.
Chill vibes here, food was great too. Would come back.
Great !!!. Probably the best fried chicken I ever had. Good service and they pay fare wages, so you do not need to tip.
It was relaxing and clean, I got my food relatively quickly and tasted amazing the service was also great and quick.
I love this place!
Chill ambience, great food and service is great, the chicken platters are a hit.
Amazing food, great service. Its fully Halal which is the best part. I would go again
Pablo was amazing. Love itt.
The portions are large, so you can enjoy and share them with friends. Even though it s fried, I was able to eat quite a bit. It s crispy, and the meat is juicy. The radish side dish is a great palate cleanser! It would be nice if there were rice as a side dish. Haha.
Amazing Dietary restrictions: Halal Food : 5/5 |
Good food good service
Food looked good when it arrived but it had a smell like old and burnt oil. We didnt finished even half of it. Drenched in oil.
The people who worked there on Nov 10 at night should not be waiting tables with the level of common sense they have. The table beside us took our chair and when we asked for a chair from an empty table, they denied us saying they cant do that (which they clearly did allow for the table beside us) and instead funneled the 5 of us into a booth meant for 4 people. Common sense isnt so common.
I ordered salted egg fried chicken, it was good! They are so sweet, they will have some sanitation supplies for someone who needs, appreciated that! Just a small things meal just enough for a person~~it s nice if there s more:) Food
The best Korean restaurant in Toronto I have ever been to. I personally recommend kimchi fries and sambal fried chicken, it s the best.
Vegetarian options: A variety of halal options. Food
The food was amazing, the place itself was very clean and cozy. I love all the accommodations that they offer, and the service staff was really lovely. Ended up ordering too much so takeout boxes were a must haha!
Amazing food. Must try!
I loved the food and ambiance. Everything was delicious and the staff were so sweet. The sensory room is so cool too!! Definitely a must-visit with friends.
Amazing mind-blowing chicken, the Choice Bro was TOO GOOD BRO!!!! Next time i ll take on the challenge here and will try out their bidet
Great food and service. The host was really nice and polite. Looking forward to having the spicy chicken again.
Great place, great service. The server was sooooo nice and efficient
Excellent service ! The food was great, definitely recommend the cheesy corn and the honey mustard chicken. Dietary restrictions: They had halal chicken which I appreciated
Very nice and casual experience on all ends
The food was really good Vegetarian options: Halal Dietary restrictions: Good Kid-friendliness: Kid friendly
This place is phenomenal. Stunning food, great price, and such a unique atmosphere. I have to go back and take on the eating challenge now!
I wana start by saying i love how the food tastes except, sometimes they give smaller portions that is even smaller than their regular size. Please be consistent. Order a platter for 2 and it wasn t even one and a half serving sadly.
great vibes - music is chill - kimchi fries are really delicious and great portions!
Easy to access, good portion and taste of the food, and nice service
Amazing food!!! Dont have the picture before as we were enjoying it and didnt even thought about taking a picture
Delicious food. Friendly stuff.
Awesome place
Ashna is a very kind server. We spilled water all over the place, she only laughed it off and cleaned everything with a smile!! food was delicious (a bit too greasy for me, but that s my personal preference, my friends loved it) We also received complimentary yogurt and ice cream
Great service and delicious food, spicy with taste
My son loves the fish tower there a lot
Great place for friends to drink and enjoy korean food together, especially the fried chicken. Highly recommend.
So yummy
Very nice staff :)
Chicken was yummy. Enjoyed the bean bag chairs.
The chicken was really fresh and the service was amazing. Food was really affordable too.
Best fried chicken Ive had in Toronto
It s a cosy and lovely place! Food is good and people is kind Food
Truly fantastic fried chicken with great sauces, and an awesome concept. Been here a few times now and will keep coming back! I m on the east end so I m excited to check out their Danforth location.
This restaurant has excellent service, a very sensory-friendly atmosphere and delicious food. Highly recommend! You will not be disappointed.
I go to this place frequently and they ve always had delicious korean fried chicken with a relaxing ambiance. However, this time that I went I ordered sambal oelek chicken and it came out with this pool of oil, the oil pool is shockingly deep, about 3 times the amount it looks in the picture since it s taken from the top. We asked an employee to please drain it and they did, even if it was with visible annoyance. I do wonder why the oil was there in the first place though, one would argue it s a horrific amount of oil. As someone who comes from the country sambal is from, no it s not supposed to look that way either.
Awesome foood and awesome service!
Great service, suggest spicy rice cake rose
Chefs kiss
Delicious food, we had the Sarang Feast shared between 11 of us and the Rosé soup it was my favorite. Salted egg was different, truffle was also unique.
Good food
Loved the food and the service was amazing Felt like i was eating at home. Food
Prema is so helpful & kind, great customer service. This is my 2nd time coming here, food is too good

Juan Pablo try to take me phone number in one napkin

Really good eats & such nice staff
Great food and service!
Always enjoy the food at Sarangi kitchen. Aashnas service is always the best.
Always a pleasant experience. Ashna was amazing. Left with a big smile
The portion is big, the sauces are not so special but the vibe and staff is really friendly
Very tasty food and unique food.
Really love this place! Highly recommended! Food is sooooo good, warm ambiance and friendly service Kid-friendliness: The sensory room is much appreciated
