Review Summary

Olivia's Authentic Chicken gets mixed reviews, with some diners praising the flavor and noting the wings as among the best, while others describe inconsistent quality and service. Common criticisms include undercooked or not crispy chicken, overly salty pieces, and requests not being honored, such as missing lettuce in a sandwich. Takeout heavy operation, long waits and occasional counter miscommunication frustrate customers, and Uber Eats orders can arrive late with cheaper packaging or lower quality fries. The place is described as small and cold, with no customer washrooms and indoor climate affected by open doors in winter. Despite these concerns, several reviews acknowledge good taste and a friendly vibe, leaving Olivia's Authentic Chicken as a venue that can shine on some visits but feels variable and dependent on day and staff.

It's a two in one, the Olivia chicken & a poke monster. I've order from Olivia chicken & the chicken had a weird chewy texture & an an after taste of chemical smell. They also don't have bathrooms. Staff were good but the restaurant itself & the food was really really bad. Unfortunately I would not come back there.

Just ordered via uber & i was really disappointed in how the overall quality went down since I last ordered maybe 8-12 months ago.. Cheaper unbranded packaging, what seemed like less breading on the chicken, what seemed like lesser quality chicken, less seasoned sides - & honestly i'm the most disappointed that the once delicious oily vinegary based coleslaw changed to a generic creamy one :( plus they forgot my drink. Olivia's has always been a favourite of mine but I honestly don't think i'd order again after this.

Olivia's not only lives up to the hype, but surpasses it. Super tasty chicken & wonderful service. The owner really cares about the food & customer service. Chicken strips were crispy, flavorful, & juicy. The sauces are amazing, & the fries are that battered kind which are delicious. Didn't have to wait long for our order, either. Now our go-to fried chicken place, so lucky to have this in our neighbourhood!

First time @ Olivia's, the reviews brought us in. Very friendly & professional service. We ordered a 4 piece & 12 piece combo with extra sauces. They offered us additional Boba tea as a complimentary which was unexpected, wait was a bit long as we didn't order in advance but was well worth it, we even stopped in across the street for churros with the kids while we waited. The food was hot & very crispy & crunchy, we also tried all the sides which are equally delicious & balanced the meal exceptionally. Would definitely go there again our order was over $120 however well worth the overall experience.

No longer the same. Quality, quantity & service when down the drain. Enjoyed every bit of it back then. Before Olivia's Authentic chicken became Olivia's Authentic chicken. (Yes, this spot had another name back in NDG) It's sad how many of your branches are closing. Money hungry? Nonetheless, wishing you guys the best.

This is no longer the original Olivia’s, the fried chicken is so ordinary
