Relaxed counter-serve spot for rotisserie birds, sandwiches & customizable, multi-ingredient salads.
🌟very 👍🏼 good meal I wanted to go to Flock after reading the reviews. At first glance ( harbor location) I was put off. Only 4 tables, cold and gloomy place. Our waitress seemed very very out of it/ and the downstairs and bathroom smelled like someone smoked a big spliff needed a cleaning.💗💗💗💗 I felt better when I saw the chef and menu. The atmosphere doesn't match the food, I will say the kitchen is very very clean. The food is amazing! This was my partners second time going so constantly good. A single leg dinner is huge ( not like S.Chale) the French fries cooked in a very clean oil very delicious slaw and sauces, ****ask for chicken gravy*** I will definitely go back I just wish it was more cozy inside! Very very impressed with our meal.
Ordered delivery via Uber and was charged for additional items that were not included. Called the restaurant and the manager said Uber was responsible to reimburse me, even though it was not the fault of the driver. I've had two other incidents in the past where a restaurant made the error, and they immediately credited me back regardless of who did the delivery. If you care about receiving the food you paid for, DO NOT order from the HARBORD location. This eatery is permanently off my list. Their customer service is uninformed and uncaring, and they don't deserve to be in business.
Great place with super friendly staff and tasty and very healthy food! For our meal we got the Floke and Baja Bowl. The Baja bowl with curry chicken was a good portion size, pretty and delicious. This was roughly $25 which is very expensive so even though it was loaded nicely, it is way too much for a bowl. I would give it a 2.5/5 compared to what you can get outside. For presentation i would give it a 4.5/5. It looks really great and watching the staff making it, you can see they put it together carefully and didn't just throw things together. Finally taste was really good and i would give it a 4/5. The ingredients were all really good fresh ingredients and the different components really worked well together. Overall i would say if you are okay with the price, this is more than a great place to grab tasty, healthy food!
Best customer service I have received in a while AND that pulled chicken sandwich is definitely as good as ever! I am saddened they removed their key lime pie, it was scrumptious. I dont know if there would be a way to get the recipe? 🤷🏽♀️ Anyways chicken sandwich for the win. The only thing I really wanna share on the downside of it, is how small it seems. Look at those colours though, absolutely exquisite! It is also the perfect amount of food. Room for dessert. As good as it's always been. Highly recommended!
I’m a big fan of their chicken soup! The soup has a lot of flavour and I love the contrast in textures! My bowl was also good but I ordered delivery so I apologize for the picture not being so pretty. @turnleft_righthere
Flock is absolutely incredible!!! The taste, the presentation, the staff and the love ❤️ put into the food is like no other place I’ve eaten at. You need to eat here 100 percent. The pulled chicken Sammy is to die for. Thanks Tram Flock!!!! Funk
We made it to their patio. Amazing service, great food and plenty of space. Definitely a patio that deserves more than one visit. And, you guyssss the fresh tenders sliders were soooo good. The Bmac by far my favorite. But honestly they were all good! classic: dill pickle mayo & iceberg lettuce famous: tarragon ranch, iceberg lettuce, pickles, honey & nashville hot seasoning bmac: mac sauce, onion, iceberg lettuce, pickle & cheese buffalo: blue cheese dressing, iceberg lettuce, celery & buffalo hot sauce Great place for a date, a girls/boy night out or for family meals.
When healthy food also tastes amazing, it's a win-win! Enjoying the last bit of summer out on the patio here. This pulled chicken sandwich has so many healthy ingredients like beet, avocado, and a lot more. There's also crispy onions in it for the extra crunch. Besides normal fries, they also have roasted sweet potato, kale ceasar slaw, or a simple salad as a side. The Good Drink Ice Tea was super refreshing and comes in 3 different flavors. The mango & vanilla flavour was just perfect and wasn't too strong.
Should have gotten nandos instead every sauce had oil thought this place was healthier but it s no better
Absolutely delicious, great prices for the quality. 100% recommend.
Ive been coming to this location for awhile now. The only thing that keeps me coming is attention to detail and level of professionalism from the manager i believe his name is Harsimram. Good help is to hard to come by he definitely keeps flock flocking thank you the whole flock team for making my experience feel like the first time everytime
Strong dip game
A staple place for healthy takeout. The owners are always improving. Flock stock and two thighs and two sides are a meal combo.
My favourite chicken soup place. So delicious.
Mustafa and the team are always great!
At first I was excited about Flock moving to our area, Until they started to block my lane way /driveway Every Single Day. I have to ask their delivery drivers for both inbound and outbound deliveries to MOVE! I don t understand what logic you get out of parking your vehicle infront / in a lane way/on a bike lane. Have some respect for your neighbours.
I ve ordered from this location many times. I have never experienced the food quality being so poor - my chicken tenders were extremely small and the chicken was pink and slimy. Prices went up, but the food quality and portions went down. This will be my last time ordering.
Thank you for making such great food and a big thank you for my custom order with Anais help tonight. Highly recommend Anais and Flock for amazing quality and service.
I did a huge (20+) group order for my office lunch and it was handled by this location effortlessly! Beyond amazed with how they coordinated the food--all grouped nicely with labels. Will not hesitate to order from this location again. Also yummy chicken! Thanks Flock!
Wonderful food at a decent price point.
I recently ordered takeout from this location and unfortunately, the rotisserie chicken I received was extremely dry and the wings even cracked off. It was a huge letdown, especially considering how amazing the rotisserie chicken is at their other location. I paid $35 for this chicken, but it was definitely not worth the price.
Dont let the looks deceive you! Honestly, hands down the best rotisserie chicken both my husband and I have ever had! We just went here last night for New Years Eve dinner and was an absolute pleasure. Im hoping they can do more for the overall interior look for the restaurant because the service, staff and food was absolutely on point!
I have only ordered delivery but must find the time to dine in person. The food is so good and wholesome. AMAZING rotisserie chicken.
Worst run kitchen Ive ever seen. Expect to be unable to get through by phone and to wait when you pick up.
The best salads ive had in Toronto!
For anyone looking for a healthy food option in Toronto (especially after all the holiday indulgence), this spot makes a great choice. They are currently featuring Flock Greens, a colourful range of salads that offer vegetarian, vegan, dairy free and gluten options as well as meat substitutions. I tried the Baja and Boho Flock Greens and both are satisfying, flavourful and filling. You know the food is good when the store is busy with orders. A special shoutout to the staff at the Harbord location offering wonderful service. Make sure to check it out!
Had couple of their pulled chicken sandwiches and our favourite beer.. lovely staff and still remember the guy named Sky who served us, he was really amazing Will be there super soon Cheers!!
This was one of the best meals I ve had in a long time. The staff was awesome and super friendly. I m a super picky eater, and I could eat anything on their menu. I had a bowl and some rotisserie chicken. I m so bummed I don t live in Toronto and I can t eat there every day. Dietary restrictions: I can t eat gluten, still lots of options
They customize your order as you like. Totally recommended!
I order the three piece tenders very often, and it is generally consistently great! My grievance right now is that I noticed the price increased for them by about a dollar, but the size of the tenders shrunk quite noticeably. Also, it used to come with pickles and coleslaw, but the last couple of times I ordered there was no pickles or coleslaw :(, and even though I specified I wanted 3rd base level of heat, they had zero spice on them. Maybe they changed things without me knowing, but it s a little disappointing. I ll still order from them because I am obsessed with the tenders but if I keep being skimped out I may reconsider
3 3/4 Stars: it s a chicken place so go there for the immaculate chicken. I won t hold against them the sides - they re not all that - but yeah, perfectly-juicy, tender, and succulent chicken.
healthy & delicious, you need to try it
My kale salad with chicken was delicious.
This Restaurant food was awesome and kush gave us good deals
Food quality and quantity is absolutely incredible. Pricing is great. Taste is immaculate. I order from here at least twice a week and will continue to do so!
Decent
Chicken was undercooked
the food is good, but be prepared to wait a lifetime.
Order was cancelled for no reason. No way to contact the restaurant as the number isnt set up.
I have ordered multiple times from this location. This time THE CHICKEN WAS COMPLETELY RAW! It ruined my dinner. I always wanted to mention this earlier, but the management has been so TERRIBLE dealing with issues and even speaking to guests. I have witnessed it myself and with other customers as well every time I went to pickup. The new manager doesnt even know how to communicate. Definitely not ordering again from any of the locations.
Amazing healthy food place in Toronto. The staff if very friendly and the food is delicious. Ordered the Cali bowl and loved it!
Love their chicken, wonderful place with a nice atmosphere!
Very healthy food and atmosphere. Chicken was very delicious. The new supervisor simran was very professional and friendly. Hope to visit again soon.
Delicious and well balanced food! So happy to find this place.
Great food! The food has many healthy options and is affordable! Would definitely recommend this as a dinner option.
Took forever to make my order, pickles on only 1 dish, no coleslaw with either, and the size of these chicken fingers is a joke.
One of my fav rotisserie chicken and the glazed broccoli/cauliflower is unmatched!
Really good! Great to see a new local spot open up! Colourful salads to go with the very good chicken. Fast and efficient pick up!
Dear FLOCK staff, Your fried chicken sandwich (LOUD CHICK SAMMY) would be on the same level as the greats (PG Clucks, Heartbreak Chef, Chicas) if you switched from foil wrap to paper wrap. This seemingly small move would vastly improve the texture, density, moisture level, and integrity of the bun, thereby elevating the sandwich to new levels overall. Since FLOCK is going the extra mile in using and advertising the Martins Potato Roll, its a shame to receive the sandwich wrapped up in foil, where the moisture cant escape and the bun becomes flattened and wet. While I recognize the thoughtful consideration of foil to keep the sandwich warm, the tradeoff in favour of temparure comes at a greater expense. Even if the sandwich is picked up and consumed quickly upon wrapping, this is still the case. Please consider switching to a paper wrap and I am confident you and your customers will benefit greatly. With most of your orders likely coming from takeout customers, this change will positively impact customer satisfaction and FLOCKs bottom line in a material way. Thank you for your consideration.
Yummy food but takes way longer than they say!
Hello Flock! i had a quick dinner saturday night on my way home at your new location @ ossington and harbord the old location of skippa which we will miss! i just want to say hats off to all the staff in the kitchen!! especially the woman who served me while simultaneously helping delivery people and people ordering in person as well as taking phone orders etc. extraordinary people... thank you. kate
Awesome awesome awesome!! Best chicken I have ever had or in a very long time The service is excellent.. very friendly Great vibe Presentation exceptional! The greens Delish
Perfect comfort food!
Not as good as other locations
Ordered from doordash, they missed an item. When I called Flock about it, they offered no resolution, said they called back, still waiting for that call. Terrible experience. Wont be coming back here. Ive eaten here a couple times and the impression i get is its under poor management.
Atmosphere is fabulous and the staff (especially the GM) are completely on top of everything including deliveries and pick ups coming in. The food is sensational.
The food is great but the online ordering platform is TERRIBLE. Awful customer experience to try and place an order. Needing to enter multiple credit card numbers? Autofill that takes up the whole screen?? Terrible. Fix it.
Always a pleasure to drop in from time to time. Great food, lovely staff and enjoyable music as I eat. I always order the Coop Soup, organic brown rice, cheese biscuit, Boho salad and a green tea . . . always served by the well mannered team members Chloe or the manager Rohit, both very kind, hard working and welcoming upon every visit. I always enjoy my stay and love the degree of work ethic and professionalism that they show, whether Ive ordered or not, I love the level of courtesy and conversation on how well taken care of I was. Its the staff that keeps me coming back. Its always worth my time stopping in for lunch/dinner.
Good food. I had the baja with pulled chicken. Very generous portion size that is fresh tasty and filling. Worth every penny
Great food and amazing customer service!
Some friends and I got a variety of salads last week from this cute place. They were all amazing! Fresh and varied ingredients, and a good amount of dressing for the salad. Will definitely come back!
They shrunk the size of the chicken tenders but didn t change how they were advertised. I order from this place twice a week. The tenders today are half the size they were a few days ago.
Friendly staff, delicious food, very welcome addition to the neighbourhood. Dietary restrictions: Good gluten free options
Flock stock is the best chicken soup in the world! Hands down my favourite place for a healthy dinner.
Harbord location has an excellent patio for warmer weather. The food is reliably delicious and healthy.
One of my good friends took me here a few summers ago and I haven t forgot about it since! The patio atmosphere is an excellent gem in the urban setting and great for people watching and catching up with old friends. The food was fabulous, with many vegan and vegetarian options!
Flock is one of our go-to neighbourhood restaurants for eat-in when we can do that again and take-out while we cant. Delicious and healthy options. Lots of veggie dishes. As an example of the quality: we recently had an order of lovely Flock Stock soup and put some in the fridge for later. Unlike powdered stocks, it jelled. Its the real deal.
Super big portions, fresh and wholesome ingredients, and friendly service! Definitely a great spot to grab a quick lunch.
Great portion sizes! I got the Baja and the Floke box and I was super happy with my choice. Even though it was vegan, it was super filling. Basically a burrito bowl but a lot healthier. If youre looking for GF, paleo, or dairy-free, they also have that too!
Delicious mains, tasty sides, great portion sizes, and a great alternative to swiss chalet or kfc or one of those other chicken restaurants. I wasn t expecting it to be so flavourful but it sure was. I would love it if you opened a location in Mississauga City Centre. I think it would be a big hit and improve the options in sauga for sure!
Tried to order food from here. I wanted no feta on my Baja box but their website says no substitutions so I tried calling. Was put on hold for over 15 minutes with no assistance. Tried calling from a different number but no answer. Decided to get dinner from elsewhere.
Very Tasty healthy food
We had an amazing experience getting takeout due to Vanika who was handling the takeout orders. They were super helpful after a small mix-up with our order; extremely nice and thoughtful approach to customer service! We had a 10/10 experience as a result. Thank you Vanika!
Love this place, so many good items and healthy salads
Great food, waitress was really nice with our kids!
Lovely server and great salad, fries and cheesecake !
My favorite super food salad joint! Always consistent in quality and taste!
ordered food with Uber It. When it arrived, I saw that you did not put a fork or a spoon. When I called, they were told that you should have made a request!!! For what??? Fork?? .Thats a shame
Vegan Report: These guys have some legit vegan food!! I walked by many times and just thought it was some fried chicken joint, but my bro found them on some list and we called in. They have a couple of legit (no change needed) salads and one box (think bowl). The customer service rep was hip, so we were able to order quickly. Good taste and fresh ingredients! Ah liiike!!! Pro tips: 1. The salads seem to have beans and berries, so adjust your order to taste. They gave me my salad no berries. 2. If you want your salad ready-to-eat, be sure to let them know so they can toss it with the dressing. Great work guys, Ill be back!!
Amazing salads, generous portions, excellent service, and the pumpkin pie was amazing! Highly recommend for a casual but classy lunch. This is the cardi salad with added avocado and chicken.
I got the Cardi 1/2 and asked for falafels as a add in, and I can comfortably say this was one of the best salads I ve ever had! The portions are generous, welcoming staff and sanitary environment. For dessert I got the brownie and couldn t be happier. I highly recommended to all, thanks for the amazing service (:
The exquisite taste of flock rotisserie is one of a kind, this place is the Original, No one has been able to compete, and the best part Its not the food, its the dedicated staff that are are there to serve us everyday, thanks guys ! Cheers!
PICKLES?
Had the fried chicken sammy. It was expensive considering how small the sandwich was - but it was pretty good. I paid $15 but Id say that plate was worth $8.
Can t say it get s any better than those fried sammy chicken sandwiches.
Was skeptical going in, but their chimichurri sauce is delicious.
Really elegant feeling restaurant while also managing to be laid back. The food is fantastic! We were able to pick out the veggie options quite easily and it was both filling and satisfying! The service isnt the most attentive - we sat out on the patio during both our visits and weve had to either stand up to get someones attention or wait for long periods of time. Otherwise we enjoy the cocktails and the atmosphere very much and will be back!
Ive eaten Flock many times and loved it. This time we ordered for catering for a big family event at home. So AWESOME! Service was personable with great attention to detail - important because we have some allergies. Food arrived on time, beautifully prepped and presented in gorgeous, easy to use manner. Family was thrilled and the hostess (me!) was moreso: nothing to do and everyone was happy. Brilliant! Thanks, Flock.
Great food at an affordable price
The chicken is good, but the best thing here is the kale salad for some reason
The Rotisserie chicken was not worth it. They had me waiting on my order when it is there all along and the food overall was not worth it. The cardi salad was great. I would go back from their salads
Ordered pulled chicken sandwich, coop soup and crispy sweet potato fries. Fries didn t look like pictures, the fries were raw and hard. Everything else was good, just disappointed.
Ordered whole chicken. Chicken was kinda dry. I think they need to make some changes to improve the quality of the chicken. Haven t tried anything else yet but I doubt I ll come back. Until I see a review saying the chicken is soft and freshly cooked, then maybe I ll give it a try.
Try their chicken and waffles
Firstly, I will say that their food is very good. Its fresh, well seasoned and all of their sauces are great - everything from the Chicken to the salads. A significant change, however, is the size of their salads. They used to have a FULL and a HALF salad. For years, I would order their FULL salad because while it still cost me ~20 dollars, it was a good size and filled me up. Last month, however, they changed their sizes so there is just one size, for a very similar price to the FULL before. Unfortunately, this new size is just too small for the price. It is like snack size almost. Very delicious food, just too small of a portion for the money now.
Food was OK but they were missing most of the drinks we wanted to order and the atmosphere inside was cafeteria-like.
Such a nice restaurant, the food was great, and waitress was so nice a and friendly. Will definitely come back again!
Sluggish staff.
My vegan diet started here today! The food and customer service was immaculate...Ill be back
Im pregnant and I struggle to find food that makes me feel good. I went here with family and boy was it delicious. I order 3 pieces of the breaded chicken platter and I added the mac & cheese. I also got a freshly made carrot and orange juice. Everything was very tasty. I had leftovers and it tasted great the next day. Thanks Flock for a great evening out.
Really good restaurant. Many healthy choices. Great staff.
The food was good, but the service was slow in spite of the relatively few customers inside.
Foodora food delivery for them
Love the vegan bowl! Tasty and filling! Nice atmosphere
Always great food and great service
Great food - great Staff - great atmosphere!
The food is good .
Great food and good options for gluten and dairy free
The preparation of the food and the quality of service has seen better days.
The food ordered, especially the tiny sized side dishes, was soggy and unapetizing. Positively the least enjoyable dining experience in years.
First patio experience this summer post Covid and I could not be happier! West facing west so we had all the sun and shade we needed. $5 beers (am I dreaming?) which were refreshingly cold and went down so nice. Awesome staff/service and a great meal. Cant wait to get back there.
Good food, good service
Long wait time for uber guys. I am waiting more then 30 minutes with 10 other delivery guys.
Great patio, excellent food, fantastic service, support local!
I visited this site after a recommendation and was pleasantly surprised. With Covid they had a great set up with sufficient spacing as we sat on the patio. We noticed they did a great job at disinfecting as patrons left in prep for new customers. Inside did not appear to be open for seating yet. They only seemed to have one server working at the time named Takia though. This was surprising because there was a decent flow of customers that she was handling by herself. We sat and watched as we ate and great job to her because I dont know how she did it!! She was very pleasant and attentive to all customers under the circumstances. I ordered the Baja Box that she recommended with a side of fries while the person I was with ordered the chicken with mac and cheese and roasted sweet potato. Price point is great!!! Even for the drinks as this place had a small bar where you could get an alcoholic beverage. The food was very tasty and I was so happy with my selection. The fries were sooo good with the perfect amount of salt and crisp on them. I tasted the roasted sweet potatoes and they would have been better if they were just sweet potato fries so I didnt like them. I also tasted the mac and cheese that wasnt too bad either. Chicken I already knew to be tasty as I had the chicken at a different location in the past and I just love their flavoring. All in all, my first dine in experience with Flock was a great one and I will definitely recommend this restaurant to others. Thank you to Takia for the excellent service.
Great chicken. Great family friendly restaurant
Harbord St getting ready for covid safe indoor seeting!
Sweet potatoes were half raw and the chicken had a funny smell to it. I ordered through doordash and had to submit another order because that wasnt happening. Its a shame as they seem to have a good concept but the execution was poor. Save yourself the trouble and just order a roasted chicken from Cumbraes.
Great restaurant
The environment and staff were good, but the food ( chicken, soup and burger) were aweful. That was a bad experience for me and my family. Never gonna get there again.
Love it a lot. Very friendly service and great food
The falafel starter was great!
Flocking great
Service could be faster and more attentive, but Ive never eaten anything here that I didnt love. I wish I could afford/had the time to eat here more often because its so good and the food doesnt leave you feeling like you just ate a pound of lard. When I used to be vegetarian this was like the only place I would order from on Uber Eats. The chicken is fall of the bone moist and FLAVOURFUL, these chefs know their way around a rotisserie. The macaroni and cheese wasnt too salty in the slightest and had the perfect amount of cheese and creaminess. Their bowls are what I get more often, and for a reason. They put all other salads and power bowls to shame, they are really that good. However, the restaurant seems understaffed sometimes, like the staff arent as attentive as they could be because theyve got their hands busy with other duties.
Great service. Great food. Started with a chicken broth and then moved on to gnochii woth a side of coleslaw. They have a variety of wine as well as fresh juices to choose from. My friend had rotisserie with sweet potato fries. The sauce that came with the fries was amazing and our server suggested it. Overall it was a good experience.
Had a salad with pulled chicken and a soup (stock flock) and both were excellent. Much better (specially portions) than the one on bloor and church. Had rotisserie chicken previously here and it was very good too. A bit pricy though
Loved the sweet server, the cozy atmosphere and delicious chicken!
This Restruant is fantastic. I went with my buddy Matt Smith, we had the eggs Benedict and the chicken and waffles. They were both perfect. The Decor is warm with comforting music and a chic atmosphere. Our server Alicia was fantastic. She made our dinning experience special and her food recommendations were spot on! Defiantly will be back for the food, atmosphere and the service. Try the key lime pie!
Fantastic experience with great food and friendly service as well. I had the Boho Flock salad (with added chicken and avocado) and it was delicious! My dad has the 1/4 chicken and enjoyed his meal as well. Would definitely come back to try more on this menu!
Love this place. The chicken sandwich is amazing.
Very good food and very good coffee. Good service.
Its pretty good. Go for the rotis over fried chicken. Good happy hour specials on bar well and assorted tall cans. Great, friendly service.
Went there around 3 pm when it was almost fully empty. I was relaxed and not on a rush but well... Bad service and so so uneventful food is what this spot is about. Yes, is a nice room with a fantastic terrace in one of my favourite streets in Toronto. Leave the rotisseries to where they belong. I just order a sandwich, was small, uneventful food, not particularly with flavour, the chimichurri I order on the side was the first flavourless chimichurri I ever tasted (was it chimichurri in the first place?). When I saw the size of the sandwich, I wanted to order a side but the waitresses disappeared into nothingness as they did all along this episode so I concentrated on well, this snack (which was my breakfast and lunch) will bring me to dinner without fainting and gave up on the idea of ordering anything else... It took I believe 45 minutes to an hour to be ready... Because the order didnt printed back in the kitchen... Well, no excuse. Bad unfriendly cold blooded service and bad food. If you enjoy a cute room with bad food, is the perfect spot. Ill keep buying my rotisserie chicken from Meat Department :)...
Excellent food and prices. Employees are very friendly.
Great food. Nice atmosphere.
I went twice in two weeks. The first time, I had the quarter chicken with sweet potato wedges at the TGH location. I prefer Swiss Chalet quarter chicken. This time on Harbord, I had the fried chicken sandwich and it was a home run. Delicious and crispy batter, moist chicken, crunchy slaw, its a worthy competitor for PJ Clucks.
Walked in for a takeout order at 4:16pm. Walked out at 4:46pm with takeout order. It took the kitchen 30 minutes for a take out order only to have the wing of the bird burnt. ITS TAKE-OUT NOT TAKE-LONG.
Server was super friendly and food was delicious.
Worst Attitude of the waitress!
Tried to call ahead several times to order takeout but phone was not being answered. Discovered upon arrival that it was left off the hook. Price for half chicken meal was 3 dollars more than the listed $19 on the website menu. Total price was $26 dollars for half chicken and one side. I think it was supposed to come with coleslaw but they forgot. My side of corn was mediocre. Salad or vegetable side would have been great. Pepper sauce was fine. The chicken was pretty good but way too expensive imo. I think the menu is overpriced but will give it a second try and adjust my review if I have a better experience.
Marvellous everything
Great food (we had sandwiches and burgers) with a relaxed atmosphere. Not cheap but beautifully decorated. Interesting selection of fresh juices and cocktails too
I am a big fan of eating the flock. There isnt anything to complain about except that sometimes the make my ritual order too fast.
Great food and good service. Yum!
Great food, great decor.
Nothing bad to say about this place so far. Enjoyed all of it. The sweet potatoes with lime salt were really good. Sauces are on the watery side. Not a complaint. Just noting they look different than most other places Ive been to recently.
Super tasty and healthy salads. The chicken sandwich is fantastic
Delicious. Healthy. Good for all dietary needs.
Either I hit a bad night (Thursday just before the holiday long weekend) or their front of house isnt being well supervised. I sat outside on the patio (alone - 4 other tables occupied.) After a salad first course, brought in reasonable time, it took almost 45 mins to get a simple main course (one plain grilled chicken breast and two standard sides -- small cold salads.) I was reading and happy enough for half an hour (who doesnt like a Toronto patio in patio weather?) but in the next 15 minutes the light declined, no waiter appeared, and when one did it wasnt mine. I called to them and asked for my server, who came immediately, then went inside to check. My main course came out within 3 minutes - dryish and a little less than lukewarm. The explanation I got was that an unexpectedly large number (4) of takeout orders had come in that evening and we dealt with those first. Looks as if either my order sat, ready but unserved for quite a while, or, more likely, was hastily microwaved and brought out after the rush. (I was told they cooked the grilled chicken earlier in the day, then reheated it before serving). That, the ordinariness of the grilled chicken (Nandos or any decent churrasco would be better, juicier and hotter), the Harbord St. price, and the grim light on the patio after dark (harsh street lights only, no candles) made for a discouraging evening. The waitstaff were perfectly friendly and conciliatory -- but scarce, and not covering well. I told them Id have liked at least an earlier please wait acknowledgement. This is the third time Ive eaten here in a year, the other times with parties of three or four. Every time something like this has happened - either forgotten orders or a long wait. I have to conclude that Flock is being run (in the evening, at least) not as a fashionable midprice Harbord eatery, but as an expensive takeout with incidental table service and poor front of house coordination. Pity, because the salads and vegetables are intetesting and tasty, and the other reviews say the fried chicken sandwiches are good. (I now suspect thats because they have to be deep fried at the last minute).
$17 for tinnyyy portions
I like that they have both healthy salads and chicken for those that love meat. I had the Boho Flock salad and it was a pretty big portion. It was a good salad overall but I would have liked more beets, peppers, tomatoes etc. , the bowl was 80% kale. I would come back to try their Rotisserie Chicken or their chicken sandwiches!
Yummy dishes with fresh ingredients and the chicken with chimmicuri sauce is too good.
The staff was a bit racist. The food was amazing as always
Chicken and waffles were great
