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.
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.
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.
We literally tried everything at once & everything was absolutely amazing especially the fried chicken was the best one we ever tried across canada.
From now on this is my spot for fried chicken
Very good place respectful people. Service is 10/10 & the food was amazing. Fried chicken is awesome aswell as the burgers. I recommend to everybody. I sure will be back
Very amazing food, tasty & perfectly cooked. The service was very quick & fast. The entire restaurant was clean & the workers were very nice & friendly. They joked around & talked with us!
We got burritos & burgers, we got wings & fried chicken. Everything was phenomenal!
We also had forgotten something & left, we called them up & they had the item safe for us & we went & picked it up right away.

I recently eat at Ranjy's & was blown away by the delicious food,try fried chicken & zinger burger. The flavors were rich & authentic. The Owner was very friendly & also the staff , particularly Saleh, were warm & welcoming. Their excellent service made my experience even better. I'd definitely recommend Ranjy's to anyone looking for great food & hospitality.
Looking for a fried chicken place today & we happened to be really close so we stopped in.
Definitely the crispiest & juiciest fried chicken we've ever had!! We will be back!!
Great experience at Ranjy's. The staff is friendly, attentive, & on point. The food is excellent, especially the fried chicken, which is an absolute standout.
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.
