Got taken out. Fries are battered, chicken is in the same batter. Super oily and pretty gross.

Their potato wedges are next level. The seasoning is just unreal - always delicious & always good service here!

Probably the best "traditional" greasy fried chicken you'll find on the island. However, I find everything (especially the fries) too salty, and I like salty foods.

Just great chicken, in my experience the best fried chicken I have ever had. The battered chips are also to die for, why is this not more common? Anyway so amazing, one of my favourite places in Victoria.

Imho.best chicken in Victoria.always crispy and they don't break the wings to fit their cookers so no broken bones and splinters
19 February 2022 2:06
Horrible. Cold. Dry and just a mouth full of oil. DO NOT EAT HERE. It tastes like a health code violation!
16 February 2022 7:10
Still the best fried chicken on the island.the trick is to eat it in your car right after you pick them up.

Terrible. Popeyes does this much better. Unfortunately not available in Victoria. Horribly skinny chickens and totally over salted and overpriced. Omg, I never go there again.

Best fried chicken around! I always expect breast meat to inevitably be dry at some point from any place but this place, juicy, moist, tender and a great crunchy outside. EVERY TIME! Battered wedge fries are a nice touch, one of a kind and it cant be beat!

OMG! I have found my new obsession I've always, always loved their Chinese food but decided to try their chicken Can you say UNBELIEVABLY FANTASTIC! THANKS for filling my Belly for$16.00? YOUR AWESOME!

I have not had such a disappointing ginger beef. Where’s the beef.where’s the taste? No ginger flavour.no spicy! The Black bean garlic veggie.fresh veg.but no flavourful black bean sauce standard in this dish anywhere else I’ve purchased. It was veggie soup! Very unsatisfactory Asian quisine.stuck to fried chicken!
20 June 2021 2:03
Flipping amazing chicken, best I ever had, I haven’t had that much fried chicken but I know this stuff is amazing.

Usually awsum, but once in awhile one of the chicken pieces.is not like the others!
As in~ tastes bad.
24 January 2021 12:06
It's way too oily for me. The chicken strips we're okay. The potato wedges coated in the batter tasted terrible.
23 December 2020 2:41
We keep hearing about this restaurant and finally tried it out. We enjoyed everything we ordered and would definitely return.

Didn't get chicken. Got a Thai dish and sadly there wasn't much flavor. It was a very generous portion but not quite what I was after. The staff is very friendly and it was very quick. They even brought my order out to me in the rain. I'm giving them another shot just with another menu item.
23 November 2020 3:16
Love it! The only shortcoming is that never come with ketchup, sources, folks and knifes in delivery orders.
21 October 2020 6:13
This place has CRISPIEST and JUICIEST fried chicken I have ever had. I got a chance to try their ginger beef as well. It was delicious! Highly recommended. Staff were wonderful! Will definitely go back there!

THE BEST FRIED CHICKEN I HAVE EVER HAD IN MY LIFE! Perfectly crispy. The crunch, alone stimulates the pleasure centers of my brain.
Then there are the wedges. OH, the wedges. They are Indescribable.
Wash it all down with the a cool, crisp Coca-Cola classic and there you have it - Victoria's best take out fried chicken.
25 March 2020 11:12
No this place is a hidden gem of flavors. It's not just chicken and nor Chinese, it's a place that will satisfy everyone. The food is very tasty and full of flavor.
24 March 2020 22:50
Over the years.its always been good, how much more can yu ask of a chicken delivery? Itd be a five except the price is pretty high and they are mot open mondays so there u have it
28 February 2020 5:32
Best Chicken in town and it works with a keto diet. Got the fries for the family and they were a big hit.lots of flavor
21 February 2020 5:50
A long time favourite. If you have never tried their food, you are missing out on some of the best fried chicken in the city.
09 February 2020 15:51
Food was flavourless and overly greasy. It tasted like they completely forgot that season exists. Battered fries are a neat idea but these were so greasy they were almost inedible. Would not recommend.
16 January 2020 22:22
Beat chicken in town, hands down. Unfortunately, they know that, and they charge an arm and a leg. Amazing potato wedges as well. Just so damn expensive.

Look, I like their chicken. I really do. But I am 90% sure they use cocaine to batter those potato wedges. I place a second mortgage out on my house and steal change from unlocked cars, just for my next potato wedges fix.

Amazing place I've been there only 3 times and the owner operator took the time to say hello and remembered my name the fourth and fifth time I've been back. Great food
Great service got me for life!

In my opinion: worthwhile.
At the very least try it for yourself.

I'm writing a five star review to undo some of the damage these negative reviews have caused. This is not the greasiest chicken, their gravy is real gravy, and their battered fries are great and crisp. [and what's more they continue to crisp in the oven because of the low oil content] I started to ordered from here just after the new year '16 and have steadily treated myself once a month for four months now.

I always get twin pack, regular fries, large gravy.

EDIT: REVIEW CHANGED TO 4 STARS UNTIL OLD DUSTY WINGS RECIPE IS BACK. PLEASE NOT SAUCY. PLEASE BRING BACK DUSTY HOT WINGS.
08 July 2019 6:15
Pretty remarkable chicken definitely different then I've had it before, I know I'll be returning and I recommend going here to anyone who has not been
27 June 2019 22:33
Really tasty fried chicken. But the real star is the chicken wings, the spicy dusted ones might be the best I've ever had.
06 June 2019 1:02
Gotta Love Chicken on the Run! They have a unique method of frying their chicken that results in a really crispy, very tasty wing. The must marinate them for a really long time to get the flavout that deep. Highly recommend!

Chicken on the Run is run out of the same kitchen and building as Crown Palace, a Chinese take-out place. The “broasted” chicken comes in big pieces, has a crispy batter, and is moist inside. Well-seasoned and very tasty. (Regardless of the name, it’s basically fried chicken.) Accompaniments like coleslaw, onion rings, and gravy will significantly increase your bill and are not great. The fries are battered and not crispy. I typically just order chicken by the piece.

Good crispy chicken big pieces and wedge fries and good potato salad, I order from there every few months, good stuff and good portion sizes.
28 March 2019 19:29
I have been addicted to this place since 2012 and I haven't found a cure yet. Super delicious chicken
19 March 2019 8:51
Best place for chicken and potato wedges I've ever been too. Make sure to bring your wallet and maybe a credit card. Stuffs expensive, but worth it. Make sure you get a gravy to go along
18 March 2019 0:41
Best classic juice Fired chicken in town. Best meat quality. They use Island Chicken.super tasty and fresh. I order it every month. I tried three different new fire chicken restaurants, they are no match. Chicken on the run still the best.
18 February 2019 21:55
Delicious chicken and fries! Always friendly and reasonably fast service, even when they're busy.
