| - This is a decent fast food joint that recently opened in Scarborough. Everyone has been raving about it for weeks, months, and lineups since then have decreased from several hours to now 15 minutes during non-peak times. I had heard so many mixed reviews that I felt like I had to try this myself. Thanks to another Yelp reviewer, I came at around 4:30pm on a Tuesday expecting it to not have such a huge lineup.
And I was right--15-20 minutes wait from entering the tent at Kennedy Commons to exiting the doors with my bags of food.
Keep in mind that this is a fast food restaurant, like McDonald's, KFC, etc...inside looks just like any other fast food place. Very busy but also quite organized with their system. You enter the tent, they give you a number on a laminated card (which also has info about limited food orders), you enter the restaurant, and pay for your food at the cash area. Cash area has maybe 3 cashiers running and there are 2-3 other people on the right side putting the food onto trays and bags. Once you pay, you get a buzzer and it'll notify you when your food is ready!
As for the food, I ordered $45 worth of food so that I could try everything because who knows when I'd be back here again. Ordered the Bucket Treat "B" combo with 3 pies, 6-pieces of chicken (spicy thighs and legs), large gravy, and large (very) sweet spaghetti. I also ordered two pineapple juices and medium sized fries.
Fries were like McD's--very similar in taste, size and shape! Spaghetti with hot dog pieces was super sweet--I didn't mind it so much at first but definitely can't eat very much of it at once. Gravy has a sweetness to it as well, which is something I'd have to get used to. It's similar to KFC gravy but just sweeter. Spicy fried chicken was crispy, actually spicy (seems like hot pepper powder was sprinkled on top), and juicy on the inside. Not as salty or peppery as KFC and very similar in crispiness of Popeye's (and I love Popeye's btw). Pineapple juice was tasty and sweet--reminded me of the juice from canned pineapples. Peach and mango pie was good but not so different from other places like McDonald's--again, very sweet, but very crispy shell.
Staff were friendly and when they give you your food, they tell you "Have a jolly day!" How can you not after that?!? :D
All in all, good fast food restaurant, but definitely not worth waiting hours in line for, unless it has some sort of nostalgic factor for you. It has similar prices as other fast food chains. Their menu is limited as well, but they are known mostly for their chicken. It's definitely worth a try if you like KFC or Popeye's or if you're looking for something a bit different to try.
