Visited them from Ottawa on a friend's recommendation & was very impressed. Loved their Zingratta burger & fried chicken pieces. The chicken pieces were super crispy & juicy, probably the best halal ones I have tried so far in Canada. The food was fresh as well. I will definitely eat here again on my next visit to Montreal!

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.

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.

Me & my friends went there on my suggestion after seeing reviews of this place on TikTok.

My friends are not as comfortable with the idea of south asian cuisines, however I assured them it seems to be more of a fusion restaurant & the menu is varied.

We had a Ranjy's pita mix. , bucket of chicken, chicken tikka poutine, & a burrito fritos.

The Pitas are simply phenomenal. Stuffed to bursting with meat, one alone is enough to put you in a food coma. Their tikka chicken is simply amazing to be honest. 8.5/10

The fried chicken is very tender, very crispy & all around great. I personally would simply the batter seasoned a bit more heavily & keep it slightly lighter coloured. Maybe it was fried a tad bit too dark. Overall, very good. 8/10

The chicken tikka poutine was simply amazing. I cannot express the reception it had on my table. Everyone wanted to get a bite of it. The chicken tikka is again super tender & flavourful. I believe it is the ingredient they do the best here & every-dish that has it is probably good. It also somehow perfectly compliments the poutine, & they sre generous with it. 9.3/10

Fritos burrito. Solid burrito, tastes likes something you could easily whip up, except the tenders in it are freshly made. The sauce was well balances & refreshing with the lettuce. 7.8/ 10

Just wrapped up my 3 piece meal & let me say; this place KNOWS how to make fried chicken. Even after sitting in the car for 20 minutes, got home & it was still hot, moist, & crispy. The crust snaps & crackles in your mouth & retains that texture after being covered in gravy. I finished every last crumb, even the bones were completely clean. My coworker agrees with me & this is our new go to spot for some fried chicken after a long day working in the kitchen. Congrats to the staff & owners of Ranjy's, you've completely blown my expectations.

Very polite & welcoming team, everyone is so nice here. Great selection for all tastes. Every item on the menu is incredibly tasty all the time. The food is ALWAYS freshly made once you order, I never had on bite from Ranjy's that wasnt amazing & perfectly cooked, hence the time it takes for chicken is worth the wait. The fried chicken is very crispy & juicy, you wont find it with any layers of fat, it is also very well seasoned. The burritos are on another level, I was skeptic at first but not trying them is a huge error , I like the meatos most but all are spectaculor. The food & the combination in the sandwiches are like nowhere else. If you dont try it, you're missing out. & its open late. This is a hidden gem.

I was at Ranjy's last night & ended up coming back again today - that's how good it was. The 3-piece chicken meal was crispy, fresh, & really flavorful. The gravy & coleslaw made it even better, & the portion was just right. Honestly, it's rare that I return to the same place two days in a row, but their chicken was worth it. I'd definitely recommend it.
