I've always enjoyed my rotisserie chicken meals here. Recently went and did the share platter ($68, for 2-3 ppl) - we were 3 ppl and it definitely impressed and even left us so much leftovers. Everything was great and amazing bang for buck. Always good friendly service here as well. Def recommend the share platter , could even be split by 4 ppl for medium meals if u ask me. read more

My friends and I came here and tried the ultimate chicken platter to share. From the items, the fried chicken was definitely the favourite paired with the black peppered gravy, followed by the wings. The fries, coleslaw, and cornbread were also delish. The spicy baked beans and the spit fired chicken were meh and something I could do without on my visit. All in all, a decent meal for the pricing but I think this is one of the instances where individual plates might be a better deal than the platter. read more

Digesting an entire chicken for $47 seems wrong for many reasons unless you're a member of a struggling singing group that doesn't eat red meat. Jamie W. and I didn't even consider that option even though it came with four sides none of which sounded particularly dietetic. No, we behaved ourselves and went with the $17.95 Salads with Pulled Chicken. Perhaps because of its Union Station location, the place felt like we were dining in an airport terminal. Some time during a non-peak period since there were only two other diners in the cavernous space. The server was cordial in a buttoned-up sort of way like a veteran flight attendant on the last leg of her flight. Jamie opted for the Crisp Lettuce & UC Ranch with avocado, cucumber, radish, red onion, iceberg lettuce, and spiced seeds whatever those were. Chicken breast shards were tossed into the mix, and Jamie's main complaint was that it was served cold in a picnic manner (photo: http://bit.ly/2NyYlU1). The menu didn't disclose the temperature as such. I ordered the Quinoa & Roasted Cauliflower tossed with spinach, chickpeas, mixed herbs, sesame seeds, red onion, and mustard vinaigrette. Again the same chicken breast shards showed up in mine, and again it tasted like it was refrigerated with the quinoa barely there (photo: http://bit.ly/2LGhnFw). Still, for picnic fare, it was still fairly satisfying and we were pretty full afterward. We just felt like we were late for our flight, that's all. FOOD - 3 stars...picnic salads for dinner if that's what you want AMBIANCE - 3.5 stars...kept looking for the flight departure board SERVICE - 3.5 stars...tray table up, please TOTAL - 3 stars...chickens should probably unionize RELATED - Traveling to Toronto?

Got the chance to come here one day, as i was in the area just killing time taking some photos. much like the sherway gardens location, i had an equally enjoyable time here. i was greeted instantly, and was able to be seated right away. the waiter greeted me before i could even get all of my gear/sweater off, even though the restaurant was busy. right away he asked me if i wanted alcohol, a bit of a weird thing to start the conversation off with, i instantly dismissed it, as i was driving home after my meal, the waiter just looked at me funny over this comment. my food came quick and was outstanding, i really wish i could have changed the burger i had, and ask for it to come without pineapple, as i felt like that was a bit much. the ribs were to die for, and the wings were super hot. everything was perfect, other then the side eye about not having alcohol *gasp* this is attached to union station, which means that all sorts of transit options are possible for this place, parking is in the area, but in private paid for lots in the neighborhood, nothing directly attached to union station. would definitely come back the next time I'm in the area. go out of your way to try the house sauces, as they are outstanding and compliment anything you order. read more

The setting is nice. There are multiple sauce options and they are properly themed and branded with the Union Chicken name. There are a couple of menu items which I got to sample. First was the UC Poutine which was topped with black pepper gravy and the usual cheese curds. The poutine was good and above average in terms of how poutines go. Next item I got to try was the signature Quarter Chicken (breast). The flavor and seasoning of the grilled chicken skin was nothing special, and nothing to make it stand out from other grilled chickens available elsewhere. Going further, the white meat of the chicken came out a little dry and tasted bland. If it was not for the multiple different sauces available it would have been very hard and unenjoyable to finish the whole meal order. A few good things to add about the whole dining experience was that the service from the assigned waiter is good. I say "assigned" because there was an instance where I called out a different waiter and there was hint of sarcasm in his tone. He (assigned waiter) was prompt to come back and provide requests for a spoon, more napkins, and extra dipping sauces. The waiter also helped to clean up after an accidental glass water spill. The next thing to note is that the serving size is big and what should be expected from the price being paid. read more

This was a decent place to eat in Union. We had wings on special and they were pretty good. I think this place is good for a bite to eat if you don't want to eat in the food court.

I had supper this evening with my pals Deb, Franca and Rona Union Chicken at Union Station. It was a busy spot. Deb and Rona had Uncle Ray's Fried Chicken. Deb had hers with sweet potatoes and Rona had hers with fries. The meal looked monstrous and good. Franca had a Quinoa & Roasted Cauliflower salad. I ordered what I've ordered in the past Union Chicken ... Spit-Fired Rotisserie Chicken. This time I got it with fries. The fries were good and the chicken was really good.

Visited on Friday and decided to order a couple of sides since it was BOGO. The triple fried fries were a little too crispy and greasy (I guess that's to be expected) and the coleslaw was alright, but the highlight of the meal were the sandwiches! The portion of chicken was huge!! We ordered takeaway but everything stayed hot and crispy. The bun was nice and soft and sauce was slightly sweet with crunchy coleslaw. Very tasty! read more

Union Chicken locates at York Concourse in Union Station. It is a convenient location for travellers and people live/work nearby. This is my favourite office lunch spot. Just visited this place today, and we found out the service improved a lot from the first opening. The food arrived faster and end to end of my lunch was within an hour which is important for lunch service. Food was great and love their sauce which made things tastier. OG Style fried chicken, rotisserie chicken are both my usual order. The sides are delicious and don't forget to order the Brussel Sprouts. The only complaint is they took my favourite Korean Fried Chicken out of the menu! Please bring it back! read more

This restaurant is located besides the grand hall inside the Union station. It's a bit difficult to find but if you ask the security guards they will be happy to assist you. There are lots of indoor dining and easy to get a seat. The menu is full of drinks on one page and dinner on the other page. There are lots of chicken varieties you can choose from. I would recommend choosing from handhelds as we would the fried chicken items too oily and hard to eat as there wasn't "enough mix" of different items on a smaller scale. We felt like we were "hit" with fried chicken that made it unappetizing. Instead they could have reduced the chicken and made an awesome dinner with Mac n cheese, fries and corn bread. The restaurant is interesting and worth visiting but don't expect to satisfy your appetite. read more

I've been eyeing Union Chicken for a while now and decided to give it a try the Monday after Easter, since I knew that it wouldn't be busy. I was seated at the bar fairly quickly, but it took some time for someone to notice that I was waiting to order. However, once the order went through, the food was delivered very quickly. I ordered the O.G. chicken plate. It was 4 pieces of fried chicken in a gravy with hot sauce and honey maple syrup. The hot sauce definitely added a noticeable kick and the syrup added a sweetness that I didn't expect. I thought the chicken was very tasty. The chicken was tender and moist while the battered outside was crispy. The flavor of the batter reminded me of battered fried bananas from my childhood. Yes, it is a little expensive if you're comparing it to KFC. However, I think the price is right given the quality of ingredients and taste. read more

Great spot for chicken. We got the Ultimate Platter and it was loaded with the best items on the menu (wings, rotisserie chicken, fried chicken). It says it feeds 2-3, I would say it definitely feeds 3. It's not the cheapest but it's definitely tasty and a great place to go pre game. The staff are all friendly and very attentive too. read more

I love that there are all these restaurants opening within Union Station now - really helps with convenience in choosing a central place for commuters! If you sign up for their online mailing list, you get a free coupon for guac and chips that you can redeem for purchases above $25. The guac and chips were first to arrive - and although the portion doesn't look big, don'tn be fooled! It's more than enough for 2 people. There are at least 30+ chips, with a decent serving of guac. It wasn't amazing guac, but it sufficed! Being quite full, I got the quinoa and roasted cauliflower salad, topped with pulled chicken. It's quite filling - there's a good chunk of pulled chicken on top. The chicken isn't too dry, but nor is it too flavourful (slightly seasoned/salted). Its flavour really just comes from the dressing in which it's coated. Overall, definitely a lighter dish compared to the other menu options. My friend got the O.G. Plate; a generous portion of fried chicken topped with a sweet maple honey syrup. She seemed to struggle a bit with cutting the chicken, but did like it quite a bit. Her main comments were that it was slightly heavy, and that the skin eventually got soggy with time. Union Chicken was a good place to chill, albeit a little loud. Located right across from Wvrst and above of the food court, it's an accessible option among many! read more

I think everyone was stoned, drinks were bad. Food was supposed to be not too spiced but ended with hottest sauce....not very hospitable.

I have had their OG chicken with cayenne the first time at Union Summer, beware they don't have the same menu inside the actual location.. but we were suggested to get the Lightening chicken burger which is their best and somewhat close to what I had at their popup by the Union station. Their guac and chips are ok ok.. but the hot sauces were amazing,especially Piri Piri sauce on the side.. their triple cooked fries were soggy and salty too. Customer service was ok ok Overall I would probably go back only for their organic chicken burger otherwise it's an ok place to eat and hangout read more

I really enjoy this location at union station. I got the OG fried chicken and the regular poutine. I really enjoyed the poutine. The gravy has a great light flavour. the chicken itself is quite a lot so I recommend sharing which is what I ended up doing. The ambience is really nice however it could get a bit loud at times. I think the prices are a little higher side if average but for the location it makes sense. Check them out if your around union station and they have multiple locations in Toronto read more

Fantastic Chicken!! light and crispy, not greasy at all, clearly cooked at the perfect temperature.

Big portions, fair prices, very fresh. read more

THIS. SANDWICH. IS. SO. GOOD. I've had it three times because I love it that much. It's a big comforting hearty dish. The chicken is crispy, and the slaw keeps it from feeling greasy. I was skeptical about the maple syrup sauce but I actually really enjoyed it! It is light enough to add flavour without making the sandwich overly sweet. I want to try the Nashville version next, but some reviews say it was too spicy for them...but I am up for the challenge. I've also had their poutine which was decent, but I realized I am not a fan of chicken gravy overall. If you enjoy chicken gravy then you will enjoy this dish! Side note: I've also been craving this specific sandwich all through COVID-19 social distancing tbh. Can't wait until it's safe to eat in restaurants again! (NOTE: this picture was taken way before COVID-19. While restrictions have eased up, please try to continue practicing social distancing as much as you can.

This place can be a bit loud (music) if you're looking for a quiet spot to chat. However, the food and service totally make up for it. Why talk when u can dine on delectable fried chicken, and crispy fries! Union Station location is such a quaint, cozy setting that u can easily forget you're in a busy transportation hub. The staff and management are great at customer service and I cannot say enough about them. I'm usually gushing about the food in my reviews, this time the staff steal the show.

The Union Station revitalization project is finally finished! Grandma is healing from her facelift well, and is still dignified but lookin' sharp for 2019. Some of the best bits of her iconic visage, are the local shops and restaurants... like Union Chicken. After a long-delayed train trip, I arrived hungry. My adorable little family was waiting for me by this joint. We're not a subtle group. Clearly my handsome husband and my bouncy three-year-old wanted some fried chicken, who was I to deprive them? We cuddled up in one of their big back booths and ordered a little bit of everything. Can't go wrong with fried chicken strips and spicy beans, and their black pepper gravy poutine was equally delicious. Yes, it's a bit pricy, but you're in a train station and it's high quality goodness. read more

The MOST incredible Buffalo chicken sandwich!!!Must TRY now!! Prepared super fast. Go!

This is a great place to come to after work. This is one of the popular restaurants that is located right in Union Station. With that being said, it was super super busy. We managed to get a teeeny table but found that after 15 minutes of waiting, we were finally able to get service. Ordered our drinks and our food and soon after that, service was getting better. A girl came to drop off our drinks at the table very promptly and a man with a blazer and jeans (I believe he was the manager) came to drop off our food. I ordered their wine, I never discriminate against wine and all wine is DELICIOUS to me. My friend ordered the paper plane and she said it was the best paper plane that she ever had. We might have to come by again just for drinks. The fries were your ordinary fries but the wings were delicious. Crispy and saucy. They were good on their own and even better with the sauces that were on the table. The Piri Piri sauce had a nice kick to it. The other BBQ sauce was on the much sweeter side. The atmosphere was super busy and loud but I can see why they are super successful, their food is delicious and the location is super convenient. Perfect for those who want to grab a few drinks and then take the train back home! I really do want to come back and try all the other stuff that they have on their menu. I think I'll try it in the Newmarket Location instead, I doubt that Newmarket's Union Chicken would be as busy! Happy Eating Fellow YELPERS! read more

We came to Union Chicken for dinner. I didn't even know that this modern chic little eatery existed! To get here from the subway station, walk towards the Via Rail section of the Path towards "York Concession". Keep walking towards that direction and you will see it. Conversely, if you are coming from the streets down into the Path, walk down the stairs of the Union Station building towards York Concession to see it. This must definitely be a lunch hot spot for those that work around Union Station. This location of Union Chicken even has a dedicated take-out counter (thus confirming my assumptions for frequent fast orders and take-outs!). ;D We dined in obviously in their dining room and I was so impressed with the aesthetics of the place! I liked the wooden components of the wood and how cozy it felt. I'm so glad that my friend suggested this place for dinner! As the name suggests, this place is all about (spit-fired) rotisserie chicken and fried chicken for that matter. Thus, we shared a helping of the Uncle Ray's Fried Chicken in OG Style along with a side of Crispy Brussels Sprouts. This amount of food was perfect for us to share to feel satisfied and not overly stuffed. We were served two bottles of sauce after the cutlery were placed on our table. One was a sweet "Carolina Dip" BBQ sauce while the other was a slightly spicy "Piri Piri" sauce. Uncle Ray's Fried Chicken were buttermilk breaded boneless chicken thighs. The "OG Style" included maple-honey syrup. You could order this served on a plate version with hot sauce and black pepper gravy (which is what we ordered) or in a sandwich version with slaw, UC ranch, banana peppers, and pickle. In addition to the OG Style, you could order the "Lightning Hot Chicken" or "The Fried". The platter of OG Style fried chicken arrived in a cast iron platter with hot sauce (on the side as we requested), black pepper gravy, and maple-honey syrup. This was really well breaded fried chicken (so crispy!) and tender-tasting and moist boneless thigh meat. As far as fried chicken goes, this was top notch! I appreciate any fried chicken that has a crispy skin and moist meat underneath it. This was the perfect portion to share as I wouldn't be able to finish all of the fried chicken on the platter on my own -- there were six big pieces. (Also, I'd get bored of getting just this fried chicken in one sitting despite the variety of available dipping sauces.) The Crispy Brussels Sprouts also arrived in a similar-looking ceramic two-handled platter and we were impressed with the portion. For a side, the contents were filled to the top of the platter. At first impression, this dish was devoid of the green leafy colour usually associated with brussels sprouts. Instead, each brussels sprouts had been separated and marinated thoroughly (too much) with chili gastrique (caramelized sugar), UC ranch, mixed herbs, and spiced. This combination of ingredients resulted in a very heavy-handed serving of seasoned brussels sprouts. It felt like I was eating saucy vegetables drenched in seasoning instead of a healthier choice. There was also too much UC ranch for my taste and thus overly salty. This location got really busy as the night progressed. We felt like a lot of the other patrons were also dining there and attending the concert afterwards too (because of its close proximity to the concert arena). I noticed that our server didn't come back to check up on our table after all the food arrived. She was also nowhere to be found when we tried to get the bill. :/ I loved the fried chicken here though and would recommend that for sharing! read more

Chicken, beer selection and ambience are all good. I particularly liked how the chicken wasn't drenched in either hot sauce or sweet sauce. The only disappointing part was the beer was served in can with a glass too small to fit the entire beer. If the servers won't pour the beer, at least provide appropriately sized glasses. read more

Gave this place another try and things seem to have improved. The portions on the OG plate are DECENT considering they are still $16. The sides are still expensive at almost $6 each after taxes. Service has improved as well as chicken came out in 10-15 minutes. At the end of the day $29 (tax and tip included) for chicken and coleslaw is STILL a rip off. Why not make it a combo and offer a free refillable fountain drink??? Will come back if someone else is paying read more

This is in the York concourse of the newly opened Union food court (close to the area where people wait for GO trains). We went on a Wednesday night at around 6:30PM and the place was packed! Since we didn't have a reservation, we put ourselves on the wait list. We ended up waiting for almost 50 minutes before they could get us a table for two. We ordered the Cayenne chicken wings and the Nashville fried chicken plate. Both dishes were on the spicy side but the Nashville plate was a bit too spicy for me to enjoy it fully. The fried chicken was very crispy and juicy on the inside. Next time I would get the OG fried chicken plate instead. The chicken wings were really good too and it was served with blue cheese dipping. I thought the blue cheese helped to tone the spiciness down a bit. There was an offer on the union chicken website for free guac and chips if you put your email down so we managed to get that for free :) read more

I ordered for takeout 4 different kinds of wings (1lb) and 2 Lightning chicken sandwiches. 1. Lightning Fried Chicken Sandwich - YES! This sandwich was awesome. The chicken was HUGE. Thick and covered all of the bread. I actually struggled to fit it in my mouth as it was a few inches tall. The coating had a texture similar to popeyes and was crunchy even though my sandwich had been sitting around for 20 minutes before I could eat it. That being said, I think the chicken was a bit overcooked. Maybe 1 or 2 minutes cooked too long as the coating was getting close to burnt and the chicken was fully white without much juice. Normally, I also dislike pickles but the pickles in here were sliced ultra thin so it wasnt too strong in taste. The pickles perfectly covered every bit of bread and were still crunchy. I loved the house sauce that was spread in the sandwich and the spicy sweet sauce on the chicken. The only downside was the bread was oily and the sauces inside soaked through to the outside. Overall, it was very yummy and I enjoyed it more than Fried Chicken sandwiches from other places. I don't even think I will ever try the "Famous Original" one because this was was so good. 2. Fried Chicken wings - they were all overcooked and not very juicy. I got honey garlic, jerk, KFC, and spice 86. My favourites were the Jerk and spice 86. The jerk did not taste authentic but it still had a good flavour and amount of spice. read more

TL;DR I waited 18 minutes for a $14 sandwich made with cold chicken slurry, staff gave away my food to the wrong customer, manager gave me a $10 coupon, and then the sandwich sucked and I bit into a giant bone. Okay, let's rewind that. How do I put this nicely. How about, "This place is run by a crack team of slow-moving clownshoes who don't give a rat's." Yeah, I think we can start with that. So I saw this place while I was burning 40 minutes waiting for a train. Walked in, they had a nice ambiance for their seated service, and a convenient looking takeout counter. Prices seemed high at $14 plus tax for a sandwich, but hey, we live in Toronto and at least it was going to be good, right? I placed my order for a Viet "Bahn" Pulled Chicken Sandwich, paid, and took off to find something to drink since their selection for takeaway was limited. Came back 10 minutes later to find my order wasn't filled. No problem, sometimes food takes longer than 10 minutes, even a sandwich. After all, they had to pull the chicken and then do whatever assembly this sandwich required, right? Nothing happened for several more minutes. My takeout bag sat empty. That's fine, I was sure it was coming up. Eventually I did see someone on the line start to assemble a sandwich, but it wasn't what I was expecting; I kinda figured this would be served on a baguette, since it was styled after a bahn mi, but it was just on a regular roll. Whatevs. Somewhere in the world some dude just got his arms ripped off, and it wasn't me. One sandwich with a long wait time cannot best my feelings of gratitude toward the universe. But as the slow moving construction continued to move at the pace of a new above ground line in Scarborough, I started to notice more things that engendered misgivings: the pulled chicken wasn't pulled, it was a pulped and creamed mess of pre-slopped chicken salad. Sauce was applied sloppily. About a third of the sandwich was cilantro. At some point a few slices of carrot and cucumber were applied, which I guess is what qualifies this as "Viet." When my sandwich was wrapped and the line guy chucked it haphazardly onto the counter, I asked if he could throw another wrap of foil on it since I was about to be eating on a train. He said the counter people would do it. They didn't, but they DID stuff my sandwich in somebody else's bag and then give it to him, when even I'd heard him order the spicy chicken sandwich that was now being prepared several feet away. Sorry, Andrew. That dude left with my food, and I got to watch the agonizingly slow process of his sandwich being made, and then observed the confused looks of the staff when they went to put it in my bag, and then looked up guiltily to see if I was watching. I was, so they had to make another one. At this point we were coming up on 15-16 minutes and combined with the ordering time, my train was boarding. I got to watch a third sandwich being made even slower than the last two, and finally deposited in my bag (single wrap, sauce leaking everywhere, natch). While I was picking up my food, someone who looked managerial came over and asked the counter staff how times were going! They replied everything was great! Call me petty, but since the deception was going on one foot in front of me, I DID mention "Well, my sandwich DID take 18 minutes." The manager swiftly drew out a card, gave it to me, apologized for the wait, and proudly proclaimed my next sandwich would be on him! :D Inspecting the card revealed an equally chipper message: "NEXT ONE IS ON ME AT UC!" A closer inspection revealed it was a $10 off coupon, for my $14 +tax sandwich. I'm pretty sure literally nothing involving chicken here costs $10. Whatever. Still just a sandwich, right? At least they made a gesture. But once I got to my train and unwrapped what was sure to be a Viet/DirtySouf fusion delight, stuff got worse. The sandwich sucked. It sucked /bad/. The pulled chicken which I spied as being meat slurry earlier on was indeed just a mush of flavourless slime, cushioned by a few ribbons of veggies and an outrightly uncomfortable amount of cilantro. It was also a mess, with sauce going everywhere and all over the outside of the wrapper. Best part! Biting into the sandwich evoked a hideous teeth-shattering-on-hard-object sound! Eager to see what kind of prize was buried inside my dinner (Was it a shiny bottle cap? A rogue piece of kitchenware? The excitement and suspense coursed through me!), I pulled the sandwich apart and found it to be the very chunk of chicken bone photographed below. How in god's name it made it through the meat slurrying process I have no idea. I assume some schmuck dropped it into the Chicken Slime Bucket™ and, like the rest of the staff, couldn't have cared less. Overpriced trash that's dangerous to eat, served slowly by people who don't care. Welcome to Union Chicken. read more

So excited that this restaurant opened right at Union Station! I tried the one at Sherway and enjoyed it.

Just as tasty and juicy as the one out at Sherway Garden at the west end. The flavour is good and not too dry. One thing that I do suggest and prefer is to modify the dipping sauce consistency so that it can be a little thicker. This is by far still my favourite chicken place in town.
