Ranjy's Restaurant is widely praised for its fried chicken, described as crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside, with many calling it among the best in Montreal. The menu offers a bold mix of fried chicken, burgers, burritos, pitas, and poutine, with generous portions and solid value that keep customers coming back. The atmosphere is clean, welcoming, and family friendly, and the service is frequently noted as attentive and warm, with staff making guests feel cared for. While peak hours can bring longer waits and occasional hiccups, the food is often made to order and described as fresh and flavorful. The restaurant is Halal and offers a variety of options beyond chicken, including bowls and sandwiches like the club sandwich, with many saying the pita and burrito options are standout. Open late and suitable for dine-in or takeout, Ranjy's is viewed as a hidden gem with a loyal following and a reputation for quality, consistency, and value.
The food was good & well prepared, no complaints on that side. Service was also solid. However, the atmosphere was lacking. There was no music playing inside, which made it feel a bit awkward & quiet while dining.
Because of that, I wouldn't necessarily recommend dining in, but it could be a good option for takeout if you're just looking for a quick meal.
Fried chicken was unusually oily (not like usual). Very long wait at the restaurant & some things look like they dont work. Overall best fried chicken in the west island but this time the quality wasn't there. I'll try them again but disappointed in my last experience.
Guys, if you don't mind waiting for freshly fried chicken go there. & if you're complaining about the pricing, maybe just stay home. This is by far the best chicken tenders we've had, crispy, hot, & full of flavor.
Best fried chicken ever, yes there is wait to get the food but it's because he is making it FRESH for everyone. Ask for their seasonings on top of the fried chicken it's like cherry on top.
Absolutely amazing fried chicken 👌🏻. The sauces (chutney & habanero lime especially) were great. This isn't fast food. Expect to wait 25mins for a large order of chicken. Try this place out! It's about the food & not the atmosphere.
Halal & family friendly restaurant
Mainly serving fried chicken & burgers, but now also offer healthy bowl of salmon, chicken or vegetarian options. If you want to dine in, the wait time from ordering to serving is 20-30 minutes depending on the orders. So, call earlier if you plan to dine in.
I order a 10 piece wings with a combo so with coleslaw & gravy but instead they give me little drench wings with BBQ sauce & forgot to give me my drink that I paid.AGAIN
YOU GUYS SHOULD BE MORE CONCIOUS WITH YOUR UBER EATS ORDERS

First time trying ranjys, & it most deffinitely will not be my last. They offer a iftar special during ramadan, & everything was absolutely delicious!!
Great service & potential, but needs a few tweaks
We visited Ranjy's based on their impressive 4.8-star rating. While there is a lot to like, our experience was a bit of a mixed bag.
The Atmosphere & Service:
The owners are incredibly friendly & the restaurant is noticeably clean, which shows they truly care. However, the ventilation seems insufficient; the smell of fried food was very strong inside, suggesting the stove hood might need maintenance or an upgrade. Also, be prepared for a wait-we arrived at 4:30 PM & didn't receive our food until 5:15 PM.
The Food:
- The Chicken: The highlight of the meal. The batter was perfectly crispy. However, the meat itself was a bit dry; a brining process (similar to Popeyes) would go a long way in making it juicier.
- The Poutines: Very generous portions, but unfortunately, they were quite salty.
- The Fries: They appear to be standard Cavendish battered fries (similar to the frozen variety at Costco). While crunchy, they don't quite match the'hidden gem' vibe of the rest of the menu.
Verdict:
The food is currently average, but the potential is there to be excellent. If they can fix the ventilation, dial back the salt in favor of more herbs/spices, & perhaps switch to a more unique fry, this place would be a 5-star spot.
