Came here for the supergirl promotion. Food is good. The Supergirl's Kryptonian Kooler drink was pretty good. The sauces are the same, maybe the sweet chili might be the only different sauce. Nothing really different about them, but the pictures promoting supergirl. I ordered on the app so it was pretty quick through the drive-thru. I also got free 10 pieces of chicken nuggies with a coupon code. More than enough food for 2. If you wanted to share. read more

Just about every other time I go into this place they never have original chicken. It's always a 15 minute wait and then of course they don't tell you until you get to the front window. read more

Speaker is terrible and dont bother to fix it. Customer service is slow and poor. Consistently give the wrong food and drinks

Since the KFC was closed in Encinitas, the nearest location is 15-20 minutes away in Carlsbad Village. This store is a combined KFC/Taco Bell. Today I was in the mood for the Colonel Sanders "finger lickin good"' recipe but upon seeing a poster in the store for the chicken pot pie, I decided to go for it. The pie crust was golden brown and crispy. The chicken and veggie filling with warm and savory gravy was just what I needed on a cold afternoon. Now I know why I miss KFC so much since it closed in my neighborhood. Although the cost of KFC chicken has gone up in price, the recipe is still as tasty as ever. read more

Food is good 1. Check you're order . 2 There is ZERO Customer Service . Front counter couldn't care less about greeting you and just maybe Thankyou for your order ?? REALLY ?? I don't want to see KFC fail , but this is just an example. read more

Dirty restaurant. Dirty parking lot. Poor management and customer service. The debit/ credit or EBT never works at the register . They refuse to fix it. Basically if you don't have cash to spend here you're turned away . read more

Spent $43 on a dinner takeout. When my son brought it home, we noticed how brown and dried out the chicken was three of us had one piece. I called the number on the receipt. No one ever called me back. I called again the next day, no one called me back so I took it back. The lady behind the counter was rude. Never said she was sorry and then started to give me $15 back I guess for the chicken that we ate and was gonna have me take the bucket back with me that I brought she was unbelievably rude and then she wouldn't give me the money and I said I was gonna call corporate. She's like go ahead. This woman should not be in the restaurant business. read more

what did Mark Twain say after reading his obituary in the newspaper about reports of his death being exaggerated and somewhat premature? hey, Yelp. you were misinformed. this KFC is NOT closed. I'm a bit uncomfortable breaking a streak of one-star reviews dating back to a two-star review in 2014, but I gotta come correct. saw the KFC ad on TV and after a couple of restless nights haunted by fitful, chicken-wing dreams, I resigned myself to giving 'em a try. ordered 8 hot-and-spicy wings at the drive thru and they were oh, so good. well seasoned, the coating was perfectly crisp, fresh outta the fryer. still struggling under the Covid hangover, they're understaffed. in the middle of a modest lunch rush, one woman was getting her cardio working the window and the front counter. not the fastest fast food ever but worth the short wait. ps: not fair to compare their spicy chicken sandwich to Crack Shack or even Cross Street Chicken, but better than Popeye's and Angry Chickz is still nasty. pps: went back the next day -- just happened to be in the neighborhood -- and the experience was disappointing if only because my expectations were so high. the wings had been sitting under the heat lamps for a while and pretty sure they were sourced from Cornish game hens. deep sigh ... read more

What a crap store. Dirty inside. Slow service. Bad service. Out of most items. And this star employee who is a prick. Yo Omar, if you hate your job then quit. And wash your hands more than once a day. Watching you handle trash, cash, and food one after another is nasty. But so is this store. Trash loves trash I guess read more

KFC - Worst employee - Chicken Wings Near Me - Carlsbad, California

It was a KFC/Taco Bell combo. Food was not what we ordered, it was cold and the oil they fried the food in made everything taste weird like the oil was old. Not good. We ordered crispy chicken dark meat only but was given 2 pieces of white meat and it was cold. We also ordered 2 beef supreme chalupas but were given chicken, both of them were also cold. 3 of the 4 sides were also cold and the 1 not cold, should have been as it was coleslaw. And the biscuits were hard and tasted old. I was not happy and wanted to complain but my client wanted to go home, also, we were not given a receipt. Next time, we'll go to their Louisiana based competitor. read more

Stopped here to try their LTO Chicken & Donut sandwich. It actually was really really tasty! This review is based on this visit only, as I would typically rate KFC as a 2.5-3 star establishment. But the sandwich was HOT! Literally and deliciously! So much flavor in the chicken and donut combo! It was really messy to eat though. So much glaze on the hot donut made it pretty sticky. I also really enjoyed the wedges that came with it.. All in all, I'd recommend this LTO! read more

Today is 7/15/2023@1000 am. Never been to this KFC. Got here at 10am. Watched the people inside walk around for 25 mins. Another customer showed up at 1015 and was knocking noone came to the door. Eventually the shift lead/manager came to the door did not open, nor communicate just said with her finger go to drive thru and turned on drive thru sign. As I stood there I read the reviews and their 2 star rating based off this experience is well deserved. I took my order for 6 buckets to another franchise didn't want to even risk my food being raw or who knows with this level of service. One thing is having people call out or a situation arise which we know can happen another is leaving customers outside and not taking the pride and time to communicate with them. read more

Drive through lady who took our order was super nice. Food was piping hot (temperature). Huge positive on that. I love that. This was last time ^ I'm here today we got helped by Tony with amazing great positive attitude, customer service, great smile, on the drive through and he helped us save some money with his expertise in the deal and helped us out a lot! I'm super thankful to him! I work at a restaurant and I try to help people like he does in the same way! I really appreciate him going above and beyond, also out of his way to help people out. I'm so happy to come by this KFC! Thank you for the piping hot food, ask us for what sauce we need, giving us enough utensils napkins. You guys are the best KFC around north county! And of all SD county! read more

All I wanted was some chicken and they cancel my order 3 times and don't answer the phone I hate this place!

nastiest kfc i've ever been too. Chicken had a fishy taste too it and was gamey as hell

Well first off this is a hybrid KFC. This place is also a Taco Bell, and a franchise location. I wanted to pick up a $30 fill up with chicken instead of the tenders like I could on the app and was told no. So the chicken I was given, was not completely original like I wanted, and some was old and crispy. The fries tasted old and I was so not pleased. Be ware when going b to this location. read more

Went here for the first time the food is what you expect kfc but there's a guy working in there named Jonathan, and he has to be the kindest, most hardworking dude I've ever met. I would come back here just to be greeted by his great attitude! read more

I ordered a family meal and I was disappointed to find a piece of blue plastic in our corn...needless to say we won't eat it because there's telling how much more plastic might be in there. It's pretty large, and I'm sure whoever scooped the corn in there saw it because it was dirt right on the top of the corn container. read more

I order 24 pieces hot wings in Carlsbad KFC locations and I waited 10 to 15 minutes for my order so I get the hot and fresh hot wings but what I get is a hard and old chicken wings. I am very disappointed and this is not the first time happening to this location. This is not good for the business. read more

Food ok service not what I expected ambiance not really there service is very slow feel like not welcome

I ordered a Chicken sandwich and a order of nuggets. One of the best decisions I've made while visiting Carlsbad!

Worst service ever! "We're out of thighs." It's nowhere near closing time. So I get some tenders. No sauce and no option for a sauce. The only decent thing I got was a bunch of napkins. I give them a D- "Oh, we were busy today." read more

They look extremely understaffed. They also got my order wrong. They left out two of my sides

Just had the worst drive through customer service experience, the cashier should be fired. Got my order wrong and have the nerve to yell at me. Did not give my receipt or would log a formal complaint. read more

OMG! I was in a hurry I order a 3 piece chicken cambo I ask for a breast and two thighs... and 2 bean burritos! This f-ing place has the art of the steal as thou Donnie Trump was personally running the joint! They can't even offer more than two sugar free beverages. These slop King pigs can't even make a bean borito I got 2 bean tacos $2 for a spoon full of beans WTF. I get the combo they don't bother to fill up the small cup with soda! The bisket was so dry I could use it as a brick to throw through the plate glass! I WANTED 2 THIGHS AND A BREAST, What every man wants right! I get two drum sticks and a thigh.. oh and it was so dry too! I WANT MY MONEY BACK DO NOT GO HERE AVOID AT ALL COST DO NOT GET RIPPED OFF THIS SLOP COST $15 REMBER THE ART OF THE STEAL WELL JUST VIST THIS PLACE AND YOUR PALETTE WILL TASTE THE ART OF THE STEAL. read more

This is the second time in a row I ordered a 12 piece meal through their drive thru, and once home discovered that I had been given only 10 pieces of chicken. Once taking the 2 breasts off the top, the last few pieces were so tiny that they barely covered the bottom of the bucket. I understand that times are tough but paying close to $40 for this meal is a total ripoff. Very sad because this used to be a family favorite but never again. read more

Very seldom is there a time when we come here that we've gotten something we ordered correct or as we're watching them , that they seem to be in a different world when preparing our order opposite of what we paid for/requested. Love me some original kfc, so we continue to try, try, again. This kfc is on our way to work, so every now and then when we forget our previous experience and think only chicken then they remind us again of the poor service.... I see by reading these other reviews that we are not alone, makes me wonder if anybody in charge even cares or reads these things - my 2 cents. read more

The food is usually ok but service is spotty. The kid couldn't figure out how to ring up the order. So I asked the manager who couldn't either. They were completely out of wings on a Friday at 6. And I had to wait 20 minutes for grilled chicken. Meanwhile the manager is telling them what a great job they're doing. NOT!!! It's dirty and messy but everyone is nice which seems to be more important than service quality. read more

This place sucks!! The last three times we ordered food here we got the mashed potatoes and gravy but guess what!? No gravy!! How hard is it to get a simple order right?! The food isn't even good! If I could give them 0 stars I would! And to think... these employees are the ones that think minimum wage should go up! You can't even handle a simple task. F minus! read more

This is the worse KFC I have been too. I got chicken strips not quite done fries instead of mash potatoes, charged extra for lemonade when it comes with a drink. If you hungry miss this place. I wish I had but oh well I have a dog. One star for the lemonaid read more

Me and my gamily love your chicken sometimes I just wish the food come directly into my mouth

Have been going daily to this location since my new job this year. Amazing and friendly service! Food tastes amazing. Love the bbq sandwich! Don't change anything the staff is upbeat and puts a smile on my face!! Safe place great for the family! Keep up the fantastic customer service and Quality! read more

My review is similar to the others. Ordered chicken and after paying me they informed me that they wouldn't have original recipe for at least 20 minutes. Isn't chicken what they do? It was 515 pm on a Friday night. The store wasn't that busy. As a fan of kfc I hope they get their act together. Given the attitude of their "manager" (Grey haired 50+ year old) I have little faith. It's just not that hard to keep your signature item in stock. read more

Last week ordered a 3 piece meal, all white and received 3 pieces of brown meat. Today ordered 12 wings, 2.69 ea and they shorted me one! Edwardo was the server. They dont care what they hand you through their window read more

chicken tasted like it was reheated frozen product, very stringy and tasteless. I have also experienced about a year ago with them closing 45mins early and laughing inside when we were turned away. Swore I was never going to go back to this location but thought it would be OK since a year had gone by. This time the staff was pleasant but the food was still of a very low standard. This location needs a total revamping the kitchen especially with the cooking of the Chicken. Do you still cook your chicken in pressure cookers like they do overseas? Please use this as constructive criticism as I do like the convenience of your store. read more

My friend and I came to this location about 1.5 months ago and ordered through the drive thru. This was around 11pm on a Friday or Saturday. We got to the window to pay and they informed us that they were out of the original recipe thighs which we ordered. We ended up leaving with no food. This last Saturday at a little after 10pm we ordered through the same drive thru. After ordering they said the had no original thighs again and only one original breast. Left again with no food. They are open late on the weekends but can't seem to have their most popular menu item available. read more

Went here a couple of times and the last two times I've went, in a period of like 6 months, both times I got sick. Threw up the last time. I will warn you that you may get sick off of their chicken. It's happened to me twice. I will now only buy their taco bell (but then again, it is the same fast food place, so maybe not) If you want good food, go somewhere else. read more

They screwed up my order, so I went back in to get an item and found they didn't charge me for it, even though I ordered it. So I paid for it, waited till it was ready, walked back to the office. When I got to my office to eat it, the hot sauce packets given to me in a separate bag by a crew member were all covered in sauce, mild I think. The folks that work there dole out the sauce, so the guy who gave it to me should have detected the "leak" and not given it to me. I took a picture of the leaky sauce bag it was so appalling. I don't think I will EVER eat at this location again. And I live here!!!! read more
