This was probably the worst meal I’ve had at a Korean restaurant. We have been to a few dakgogi restaurants in Toronto that taste amazing. We love to go there so when we came to Ottawa to visit and saw there was a dakgogi near where we were staying we ordered two full chickens, fries and corn cheese.The chicken was just not the same. The sauce tasted different? And the chicken seemed stale.The Mayo Corn cheese was disgusting. Tasted like oil and old cheese. None of us could eat it.Honestly not worth to go back there ever again.

Portions are good, we ordered the boneless chicken in soy sauce. Was a bit dry though, not enough sauce. Portions are generous , $20 chicken can feed two people. French fries are super good too, very crispy (cant think of how much calories We've ingested last night...) But at 9$, a bit pricey. The place is a bit small, and tables are too close to each other , and music choice could be a bit more varied (rap rap rap all the time we were there) plus the waitress was not super, she would do the bare minimum, and check her cellphone at the cash without inquiring if we were good or needed anything ... For that reason i just give it 3stars.

How is the food?the food was pretty okay, I liked the crispy chicken because other types of chicken had too much sauce on them, and the crispy chicken is not too oily which is a good thing. However, we ordered the basket with bones and still got quite a-lot of boneless pieces which I guess it’s okay, but the boneless pieces are usually white meat and their white meat is a little dry.How is the service?the service is alright, they forgot our side dish, but once we asked them about it they quickly brought them out to us. So if you don’t get your side dishes and you want them, make sure you ask, otherwise I am pretty sure they would have just not given to us any.Also, the servers English is not so great, so be patient when you speak to them.Would I recommend?If you enjoy fried chicken, and around the area then yes.

Their rice cakes and chickens are bombastically delicious!! Though the price is a bit expensive for such small portion. 100% recommend!

This place is amazing. Portions we massive and the fried chicken did not disappoint. Also, the corn n cheese was surprisingly good and was quite a nice way to end the meal. Would recommend it to anyone and they are halal for anyone wondering.

I ordered the boneless garlic soy fried chicken and it was the worst I ever had. It was soggy and the taste was not great either.

Absolutely the worst Korean fried chicken and Tteokbokki (spicy rice cake) I’ve ever had. The Tteokbokki is a lukewarm watery mess. It’s more soup than sauce and so watery nothing sticks to the rice cakes. There were huge chunks of raw cabbage.The chicken was soggy and had so much sauce, you could toss another whole chicken. There were lots of fried bits of tiny bones without any chicken at all. The sauce sometimes had a really strong taste of powered chicken stock almost like someone added extra to the finished sauce but didn’t stir it in all the way.We had this in person a while back and it was the same soupy soggy mess, but we thought maybe they were having an off day. But turns out it’s just consistently garbage.

I’ll cut to the chase: this place is so dirty. The washroom smelled so bad that the reek reached the dinning room. In all honestly, I don’t even know why we stayed and ate there. The food was not bad but it was greatly overshadowed by the appalling conditions (dirty floors, walls, washroom, doors, windows, glasses, jars) and the smell.I guess if you are craving Korean fried chicken you might enjoy the food (even more if you do take out), otherwise I don’t recommend this place at all. I do hope that they take these reviews seriously and do something about the conditions of the restaurant!

Came to The Fry Elgin for a quick lunch a little while ago, and decided on their garlic soy chicken set. First thing I noticed was the portion size, which was on the small side. The amount of fries it came with was honestly, rather sad.While the flavours were not bad, it wasn't quite what I was expecting. The chicken was piping hot, but the sauce resembled more of a honey soy instead of garlic soy.The lady at the front was the only cashier and server in the restaurant, but provided basically no service. I wasn't even offered a glass of water with my meal. Needless to say, would not return.

I tried the chicken wings with sauce on my visit, I didn’t like it with the sauce; I felt it’s too salty.However, I had crispy chicken wings before and that was delicious.So if you are going there ask the server for recommendations. I liked that place so I am planning to visit again and will try different items, then I can share my experience as well.
