Reviews for KFC in San Diego, CA
Our cashier was amazing and very patient with us--i wish I had gotten his name. Quality of food sucked. We spent $80 and the... tenders we luke warm at best. We live 5min away so it wasn't the drive home. We also bought a 24 piece all dark meal --and wegot lots of white meat--not a bonus--and unwanted. Read more
I went to KFC at Clairemont Town Square. I bought a 12 piece bucket of chicken & a large side of green beans. My friend & I were... having a picnic on a sunny Sunday at Mission Bay Park. The KFC is small, but efficient, friendly, & helpful. There are tables, arestroom, parking, & the aroma of delicious chicken cooking fills the room. The picnic was amazing: delicious "original"chicken, green beans, & deviled-egg potato salad on a quiet beach setting with a special friend & the beauty of the bay andapproaching sunset all around us. It was glorious!! Read more
Very polite and helpful cashier person. Food was good, but mash potatoes were downsized to practically nothing. Of course the... price of side orders was up-sized???? The table tops were all dirty and unwashed on the bad side. The booth to sit in had tornup cushions that looked like somebody slashed them. The prices of side orders were not listed on the menu board. As a matter offact, no side orders like coleslaw, mashed potatoes, corn, etc. were even shown on the main menu board. I had to ask the cashierif they still had them anymore. Read more
This place just can't get it right. I've had the chicken sandwich here 5 times now. 4 times out of 5 it has been horrible today... was no exception it was cold hard and very old. On top of that the bun tasted very very stale. Also I asked for extra picklesand saw through the pass through that someone had actually physically removed pickles from my sandwich and threw them back intothe bin. The clerk who was helping me actually went to another station and added my pickles back . Great concept, Sub par food.So sad. I will definitely keep driving out of my way for Popeyes chicken sandwich!! Read more
If you order online you can only pick up by car. They used to bring our online orders to the door when they saw us. Today 2... ladies fully ignored us as we knocked for 20 min patiently waiting. They saw us and they didn?t care. It?s a little inhumane andwe felt helpless unable to pick up our food. Maybe put a sign on a door on how to pick up an online order. Maybe specify onlinethat it?s drive through only. Maybe open the door to let us know. We ended up waiting in long car line like idiots. Wings gotcold. Great experience 10/10 recommend. Read more
Good food, good service, ice machine was broken during my visit.
KFC was known in my childhood as "Kentucky Fried Chicken," a fast food joint that was "finger lickin' good" due to Colonel... Harland Sanders' no-longer-secret fried chicken batter recipe and its famed 11 herbs and spices. A bucket of Kentucky FriedChicken on the dining table used to be a genuine treat when I was a young boy, long before a consortium of slick, carpet-baggingMBAs from up north renamed it, re-branded it, and figured out how to grow and raise genetically-mutated poultry on metal rodswithout feet, beaks, spines, or nervous systems, while pumping liquid hormones, pesticides, and carcinogens directly into theirveins. This was also before KFCs like this location in Clairemont began sharing kitchens with Taco Bell, a chain restaurantknown for purveying powerful, exotic laxatives. KFC's most redeeming quality is that the food is both filling and cheap, andthe cheapest way to eat pressure-fried chicken and a biscuit at KFC at present seems to be their "Fill Up Box" value meals. For$5.49, the Fill Up Box includes your chicken selection of choice, an 8oz container of mashed potatoes and gravy, a biscuit, amedium soft drink, and a chocolate chip cookie. For purposes of this review, I ordered both the 2 Piece (Leg and Thigh)Original Recipe and the 1 Piece (Breast) Extra Crispy Recipe. My Original Recipe pieces were coated in a soft and finelytextured batter. Very well-seasoned, with lots of salt, but my goodness it is just so very greasy, resulting in a soggy coatingthat one does not associate with fried chicken. The taste was not horrible, and the chicken was anything but dry, with themelted fat from the dark meat making the oily chicken even greasier. If I had any issues with the flavor it was that the chickenalmost tastes over-salted and my tastebuds felt brutally assaulted by heaps of MSG and oil. Extra Crispy is even saltier and,yes, it is much crispier. The late Colonel Sanders despised the Extra Crispy recipe, once publicly denouncing it as Read more
