Chicken Squared

Tried the chicken shawarma plate with rice. There was lots of small prices of bones from chicken ribs and back in the shawarma and plenty of chicken fat/​skin. So disappointed. Won’t try again

Tried on recommendation of a friend… maybe it’s time I find a new friend :(
The chicken was dry and had a rewarmed heatlamp flavor. It obviously wasn’t prepared fresh. The portion for the cost was small. My kids were still hungry after eating their meal.
I think it has the possibility to be good, but isn’t at this point.

Today’s special. Get rid of the left over chicken. Had there gyro special of the day, and the shawarma. Never threw out a shawarma but I had to after eating half. And it’s slimy yucky ew. Go to Osmows because only McDonald’s is worse.

Good ol’ comfort food in Oakville.
This is the second time I’ve come here. Today, we ordered the Wednesday special of chicken gyro with rice ($ 6.25) and 4 piece strips combo ($ 7.5).
This fast food restaurant seats about 25 – 30 (tables and bar stools). Posters on the wall claim that their oil has no trans fat and no cholesterol.
The gyro was good, especially for the price, but the chicken strips stole the show by far. As advertised, they were crunchy from the outside and tender inside — plus, HOT since they were freshly fried. The garlic dipping sauce was finger lickin’ good as well.

Great place for some delicious chicken and no guilt. I had lemon pepper spiced chicken and then we got chicken sandwiches for the road. I don’t know which is better, I ate like 18 wings at the restaurant and 1 sandwich once we crossed the border. I admit it was a real food smuggling operation but man was it worth it without a doubt. -:) I give them 5 stars just because I can hardly find great halal food like this. It is a gem and you natives must be happy to have it… if anyone is heading over to NY anytime soon, buy some chicken sandwiches and shoot me a message.

BEST fried chicken EVER– preservative-​free REAL FRESH chicken and sauces/​sides. My first experience with chicken pieces that are very crispy, moist but not greasy– literally my fingers weren’t oily after! I can’t pick my favorite sauce — chipotle, garlic, sweet n sour. and apparently they are all homemade. My husband got the lemon pepper wings which I thought I wouldn’t like and we ended up having to order more for take-​out later because the flavor is so good and leaves a little taste on your lips to enjoy after the last bite ;). We came back once as we were only in town for the weekend and got an amazing crispy chicken sandwich that was big, filling and nice n spicy. The rotisserie chicken was also delish. I think there was an onion ring in the chicken wrap — nice touch (we brought some home –not all in one shot :))
Need one of these in Astoria please!

Best Halal outside of NYC. Don’t miss this place. Try the chicken gyro. This is served NYC style. Can’t wait to go back for the fried chicken.

I am eating at Chicken Squared every other day. Gyro, Fish & Chips, Chicken Strips, Crispy Chicken, Popcorn Chicken is FANTASTIC… Exceptional value for money… Their signature sauces are unbelievable… I have gotten whole chicken from Chicken Squared and served it at home dressed with their salads and fries… It sure is taste better than home cooked chicken hands down any day and compared to grocery stores…
Exceptionally good and improved recipes… Please don’t stop serving this chicken at Oakville as there is no other the choice… Popeyes, KFC and others do not stack up to Chicken Squared…
Please keep serving this fantastic menu… Yummy Yummy Yummy!!!

Not enough good fried chicken in Oakville so had to try this place on a Tuesday for lunch. This golden crispy nugget is squared away in a small plaza with limited parking.
Service is friendly and there are 6 tables and a window seating area. Ordered 2 piece fried chicken dinner combo. A lot of side options including rice, fries, wedges, onion rings, salad, and slaw.
Takes a while for the food to be prepared but it’s worth the wait. Light crispy not greasy chicken.

This place is really well-​priced and strikes a good balance between tasting good and doing things right!

I was there yesterday and am definitely a fan of this place — I love fried chicken and so am glad to have found a place that doesn’t make me feel greasy and gross after my meal (KFC) and doesn’t overcharge like crazy.
I had the popcorn chicken and LOVED it. It was really crispy and the crust didn’t slide off like it does in a lot of other fried chicken places (I cannot stand slimy crust). I also had wedges and tried some of the onion rings my friend had ordered and they were both delicious, seriously — get yourself some onion rings. The food wasn’t too oily like other places which is great! Everyone I was with loved it.
I’m also super glad this place is halal, so it’s accessible to most people. The staff are super friendly, and the place is clean so it’s one of my new favourites.

Oakville isn’t really known for it’s comfort foods or even fast food options for that matter… but FINALLY… the fat guy kid inside me has a solid place to go when i’m looking for a greasy fix. While the popcorn chicken is a MUST HAVE, the sides are all well above average as well (onion rings — amazing, wedges — great, fries — good), what’s even more impressive is that they also cater to those that are trying to protect their waist-​lines.
The concept here is to provide above average chicken, whether fried or rotisserie style, and they’ve done just that. The prices are also very reasonable… particularly for the quality of the food that you get. My wife and I got two fried chicken sandwhich combos which were awesome and an order of popcorn chicken (all white meat — tastes like the kernal/​colonel (is that right?)…except with REAL pieces of chicken). This all came out to just under $ 20…but the portions were big and we had enough leftover popcorn chicken for another meal. They also have their own special mayos which I believe are made in-house…i’m pretty big on sauces so that won me over and earned this place it’s fourth star.
We went back to try the grilled/​rotisserie chicken as well as the chicken fingers and we were not disappointed. The grilled veges that come with the rotisserie chicken were surprisingly better than expected… the grilled chicken however left a bit more to be desired.
All-in-all…Chicken Squared is a welcomed new addition to Oakville. I’m very happy that they’ve setup shop close to my house. This is exactly what I’ve been waiting for… a good place that I can frequent regularly and not have to worry about breaking the bank every time I do so…
ps. this place serves halal meat.
