Reviews highlight Ranjy's Restaurant for crispy, juicy fried chicken and generous portions, with a wide menu including pita mixes, burritos, burgers, and poutine. Customers praise fresh, flavorful food, fair prices, and friendly, attentive service in a welcoming, family-run vibe. The dine-in experience is sometimes described as calm or quiet due to a lack of music, and a few reviews note longer wait times, strong frying aromas, or occasional equipment quirks, but many say the wait is worth it for made-to-order quality and the option to take out or dine in. Overall, it is viewed as a standout in the west with halal options and a dependable spot for casual meals, group meals, and late hours.
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.
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

We drove in from Ottawa to drop someone at off & decided to try Ranjy's, & it ended up being one of the highlights of our trip.
From the moment we walked in, the hospitality was warm & genuine. The staff were attentive without being overbearing, & they made us feel truly welcome.
They thoughtfully started us off with dates & water, along with sambusa & a comforting lentil soup - such a perfect way to begin the meal. Everything that followed was fresh, flavorful, & beautifully prepared. You can really taste the care in the food.
Overall, amazing service, delicious dishes, & a great atmosphere. Definitely worth the drive from Ottawa.
Navigating the interior space is needlessly confusing & poorly thought out. The layout lacks logical flow, & the directional signage is either missing entirely or highly contradictory. I spent ten minutes just trying to locate the main service area because the floor plan is a maze. It demonstrates a severe lack of thought regarding the end user experience & spatial design.
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.
J'ai finalement essayé cet endroit que j'entendais toujours parler. Vraiment pas déçu! Service en français par une gentille employée.
Le poulet frit est croustillant a l'extérieur & juteux a l'intérieur. La sauce brune est solide. Le club est définitivement un must mais très gros donc a partager! On a pris celui mexicain mais il n'était pas vraiment piquant.
Finalement, mon fils a pris la poutine meat lover & malgré que ce n'est pas le meilleur fromage, le reste des ingrédients étaient incroyable.
Chaudement recommandé & on va revenir essayer autre chose.
Beautiful restaurant very nice workers, Couldn't have had better service anywhere else, Food was as phenomenal as the prices. Definitely reminds me of Toronto & would highly recommend.
