Toronto Chef Aleem Syed Brought Himself Back to the Kitchen Where He Belongs

"A hot-chicken concept that grew from the truck into two brick-and-mortar locations, with the first Scarborough restaurant opened in May 2022 and a kitchen space expressly customized for wheelchair use; the operation is noted for its tight, family-like crew who protect and respect the chef, massive lineups (one reported at 750 people), a steady mantra for keeping service moving, and high-profile halal catering stints backstage at major events, including appearances for prominent artists and political figures." - Ivy Knight

First time trying this joint and definitely won’t be the last. Grabbed the Wednesday special for $18 and it included two sliders, one chicken tender and crinkle cut fries that are seasoned with a nice kick to them. Food is delicious and great value for what you get. A fraction of the cost of the big chain. Daily specials are a great deal! Service was quick and friendly.

This is a mom and pop version of Dave’s Hot Chicken but better! I like the daily deals. I got the Wed $18 for 2 sliders, tender and fries. Pretty good! The chicken tenders in the sliders were crispy and juicy. The buns are soft and the mayo/comeback sauce goes so well to dilute the spice. I also like how high you can go with the spice levels. Only thing I’d like is maybe an option for dark meat (chicken thighs) in the sandwiches as I find those to be way juicier.

Amazing food. Amazing service. We lost our receipt but they remembered our order and as we walked in after waiting 20-25 minutes we received our meal on time as promised. Yes the meal we ordered took close to half hour to be made but it was well worth the wait so just a heads up to order ahead and you must wait. Keep your receipts because we pay for the receipt as well! Ask for utensils and napkins. Only downside is there isn’t any space to dine in and it can get busy quick which results in a line up. Well worth the visit, highly recommended!

Pretty decent fried chicken, but felt like on the slightly pricier side. Got TO’s hottest and didn’t think it was that spicy at all? Quite disappointed at that tbh. Otherwise, pretty decent flavours, good fries, and I like the comeback sauce (very similar to the Chick-Fil-A sauce), but nothing particularly stands out. The person taking my order was incredibly helpful. The place is very clean, but there isn’t really any space to eat (they have a small table, but it’s more for waiting due to the space available), so it’s more of a take out place.

Solid spot for fried chicken sandwiches & tenders. The sandwiches may look small, but they are very filling. And depending on the spice level you choose, it actually hits, as in Xtra hot is legit Xtra hot. Fries are a nice touch, need to try the other apps next time around.

Food tastes great I got a slider fries combo and dirty bird fries, better than Dave’s hot chicken might I even say. But I was really disappointed in the service. They also don’t have a sitting space. No utensils or tissues were even provided with the food, I had to eat the loaded fries with my bare hands in the car…. (Went to the Scarborough location)

First time ordering from THG. The buns were a bit hard but delicious sliders nonetheless! I got 1 hot and 1 mild. The hot was not spicy at all. The service was amazing & the food was fresh. Will be coming back!

First time here, definitely not my last. Ordered their “Dirty Mac & Cheese” and their “Chicken strips & seasoned fries”. Was not disappointed. Seasoned well, spiced well, and tasted great !! Great portions. No place to sit and eat however, if that matters to you. Either way, great spot for Nashville Hot chicken & all that. Will be coming back. Thanks guys !!
