      My wife and I went to The KFC on 13006 W Indian School Road Avondale AZ. The store was very clean and orderly. ** who waited on us was very nice and very professional. We ordered a bucket 16 pieces of assorted chick and one side of large coleslaw. The chicken was hot and fresh. In minutes we had our order and we were out the door. Service with a smile and great attentiveness to customer service. I would like to give extra Kudos to **. One thing I could recommend is the ** did not show up. That should be fixed. Other than that, the service was great and the personnel was very good.

      My family had sworn off of KFC a few decade ago. We were tired of soggy, dark brown, overcooked and dried out chicken. I had a yen for fried chicken a couple of weeks ago and a KFC competitor's customer service and food product was even more disappointing than KFC. My desire for fried chicken overcame my previous disappointing experiences at KFC, so I took a chance and decided to eat inside your restaurant on Lakeview Pkwy, in Rowlett, TX 75088l. Boy, was I in for a pleasant surprise! The chicken was the best I had tasted in more than a decade. It was the high quality it used to be when I was a kid. The chicken was light golden brown (but thoroughly cooked through), as well as crisp and moist inside. The quality of the chicken pieces had declined, sometimes to the point of looking like juvenile rather than full grown birds. At other times, the pieces looked large enough, but were mostly bone, not meat. Not on my most recent visit.

      The chicken pieces were a nice size and very meaty. Overall, it was a wonderful experience. The restaurant was very clean and tidy. The staff was very pleasant and helpful too. All in all, the chicken dinner I had at KFC Rowlett was topnotch. The staff told me they had a new cook, so I attributed the improvement in final quality to his expertise. Apparently, it was a correct assumption, because some of my extended family went to a different KFC in Garland, TX. They were just as disappointed as usual.

      I am hoping that KFC corporate offices are paying attention. KFC original recipe is supposed to be crisp, light golden brown, cooked through, and served hot. I would also recommend that KFC mashed potatoes and gravy be upgraded, as well as their sides, with the exception of the coleslaw, which is the best in the fast food industry "as is"! Please commend the KFC Rowlett Texas staff on their commitment to KFC quality. Their effort was obvious to me.

      Order as Rewards member and order was support be between 8-18 minutes. Arrived within 15 minutes and order not even started. Chicken fillet for sandwich was the last one put on bun and one of the 3 females only put other chicken in the fryer 10 minutes later when I asked about the second one which by the time it was ready. The first one had been sitting out already 28 minutes. The service at this franchise is the absolute worst of any KFC I’ve ordered from. Staff sits around talking while folks are waiting at front to order.

      Went to KFC in ft dodge before going to the movies and it was the worst. No ice in the machine for soda, no napkins in the napkin holder. I was supposed to get ranch for my tenders. Didn't get that either. Very disappointed. The employees acted like it was too much work to get what we wanted. Also dropping f bombs in a public restaurant is absolutely uncalled for.

      I have always loved KFC, some more than others, but this one was horrible! We were traveling through the town where 160 hwy meets I-25 in CO, and we thought we hit the jackpot because there was a KFC/TB. Two of the very best fast food chains in the world! Ha! It was 12:26 pm so everything will be fresh, right? Ha again! I could barely make out what the person was saying but finally realized he said they were out of pot pies, so I ordered a two piece combo instead. I usually love the skin on KFC chicken but this was so hard and dry, I couldn't bite into it or chew it! No wonder they were out of pot pies at noon! Their chicken is inedible!! Had evidently been sitting under the heater for a day or two. It couldn't get that bad in one day. My husband had the bowl and said it was pretty bad also. If you're hungry for KFC, keep driving!

      I agree value for money not there plus small portions. But biggest complaint, and why I won't return, is that I believe they changed the original recipe. No way does it taste the same and the pieces are very dark. The best fried chicken in my area is Shoney's or Golden Corral. Unfortunately there's no drive through and they're sit down restaurants. KFC still has good slaw but portions very small now.

I usually order a bucket of chicken, biscuits, and 4-5 sides.... So I asked for some plates, sporks and sauce to eat with. Did not give any plates, no sauce... But was nice enough to toss in 3 sporks. Then Shaine ** KFC Guest Services, has the nerve to tell me to take it up with Grubhub because I ordered through them.

He informed me that he could not give me a refund but would put my name in the book and the next time I stopped in that they would give me two cakes for the inconvenience. Well I called the store and asked if they had cakes in stock. The manager informed me that they do so I told her my name and would be by in about fifteen minutes to pick it up. I stopped and gave them my name at the drive through, gave them my name and the reason for stopping and there was some wait before she said come to the window please. I came to the window and said that she would give me one cake and that I would have to pay for the second. After a ten minute stand off I did not get the second cake and was treated horribly. Now I know why almost all the KFCs in the area have closed their doors.

      Place an order, paid for it online, and when I went to the store not only didn’t they give me my food, they gave me a note to call the office, how that became my responsibility I don't know. Guess the order number wasn’t enough. Instead of trying to help they just ignored me, I can see why the place turn violent, like I have money to just put out there with no return and it always seem to happen at the KFC on Wise Ave in Dundalk, I would never order from this location again cause there’s always an issue. So if you want to waste your time and money be my guest but neither me or my friends and family or anyone I meet will not order from there again. I know my complaints don’t matter because it seem your employees are more important than the customers.

      The chicken was under cooked and slimy. Took it back to the counter and the worker called the manager up. She stated it was cooked to the timer and I said it was not done pink and rubbery at the bone. Never asked to replace it just oh well. I eat here at least once a week for several years. The management has changed several times and the quality is now at the bottom of the barrel so I will not be back. With the attitude of the manager and not wanting to address and fix the problem.
