    I love love love this place! My family and I go here at least once every couple of weeks, the staff are always so friendly and attentive. And the home style cooking is fabulous, we just have the best experience everytime we go! I would recommend this place to anyone looking for some good food and a great atmosphere.

    We went to the Foolish Chicken tonight and were glad we did. After 3 weeks of eating out 3 meals a day, their down to earth food felt great. The chicken was tender and tasty, the sides flavourful, and the quantity perfect. While not a fancy restaurant, it had a warm, inviting atmosphere with original art on the walls. The warmth of the waitress matched the place, and we were so glad we went there.

    Great place! My family decided to celebrate the end of the semester with a nice dinner. The Foolish Chicken is one of our favourite joint in Hintonburg.I ordered the soup of the day which turned out to be a lovely curry sweet potato potage. The hint of coconut was pleasant and the heat level was just enough to tingle but not overwhelm. I opted for the chicken garden salad as my main with the house dressing. Nice portion and very healthy. The other members of my family ordered a miscellaneous array of chicken dishes ( with chicken in the name, it’s a must). The ribs are also very meaty with a perfect amount of sauce. To cap this wonderful meal, we shared two desserts : Snickers pie and Coconut rice pudding. That pie was divine but I felt like the portion could have been slightly larger( I can be glutton sometimes)The service was very attentive and personable however there was a bit of a long wait between the appetizers and the mains.Overall, solid place if you are in the neighbourhood.

    We ordered a full rack of ribs and half a chicken for two people and we were stuffed. We had bbq baked beans and fries on the side. The fries were nothing special but the beans were DELICIOUS. I think they could have been the best thing I had there. The ribs were juicy and fall off the bone. Chicken was pretty good too. The bbq sauce here is a bit on the sweeter side (I do like tangy bbq sauce).

    Just ate there with family – generous amounts of awesome food, and friendly, excellent service. I’d recommend to anyone. We’ll be going back for sure.

    A little gem of a restaurant tucked away in Wellington West. Good service, great food and reasonable prices. I had the pulled chicken and it was delicious. I’ll be back.

    I tried the ribs. I liked them.I’ve eaten here a total of four times and twice I got the chicken. Twice the chicken was (blood) red in the middle. Total turn off.I understand the many good reviews: when this place gets it right, it’s a decent meal, but…I will eat anyplace but the foolish chicken.
