Rooted here. Ready for more.
From a single fryer and a homemade spice blend in 2003 to restaurants across Mauritius, and next, the UAE.
Good chicken is a craft.
We have spent countless hours finding the right balance between flour and spices. Our marinade is made in-house, and our fryers have been fine-tuned over the years for the right cooking times and temperatures.
The result is chicken that is tender inside, golden and crispy outside, and less oily. Add generous portions and a clean, high-standard kitchen, and you have the reason people keep coming back.

Two generations of crunch
From one fryer to restaurants across Mauritius, and the next chapter in the UAE.
- 2003
It starts in Mauritius
In the busy streets of Port Louis, Rehaz, a young entrepreneur, launches Quicken's with a fryer, a food stall and his homemade spice blend. It quickly becomes a local favourite.
- 2003 to 2019
Two decades of flavour
For more than fifteen years a single outlet builds a loyal following on flavour and quality alone.
- 2019
A new chapter
Rehaz's son, Yaz, takes the reins, adding his own touch while keeping the original recipe.
- Since 2019
Rapid growth
Quicken's grows from one outlet to restaurants in Port Louis, Beau Bassin, Albion and St Pierre.
- Today
Expanding to the UAE
Two generations of passion, perfected spices and warm hospitality, on their way to Dubai and the wider UAE.
How we get the crunch
Three steps, every day. No shortcuts.
Marinate
Chicken rests in our own in-house marinade so the flavour goes all the way through.
Coat
Every piece gets our signature coating, the balance of flour and spices we spent years getting right.
Fry fresh
Fryers tuned for the right time and temperature, for chicken that is golden, crispy and less oily.
