Wish I could give it negative stars! The drive thru lady was such a RUDE person!!! And we watched them mess up our order and they were rude asf! Unprofessional place Update: they have reached out and will escalate the situation hopefully this will not happen again. read more

Seating area was nicely redone recently. Had same experience as previous review. In on a Sunday at 1:00 pm.

They've really improved this location. It's Hemet so I don't expect much but they're a good location. The chicken is always fresh. Their buffet is a great deal..go when you're hungry though or get something off the menu if you're not planning on eating a lot. Their chicken is good here, did I mention that yet? read more

I always thought the KFC buffet was an urban legend. My boyfriend's brother has raved about it for years but I had always been doubtful. Well, let me say that I've been proven wrong--it does exist!! It's $8.50 for lunch or dinner buffet for adults. They had prices for kids and senior citizens but I was too mesmerized by the array of chicken and sides before me to notice. You can just order chicken in regular meals but why would you? They had all the chicken varieties, sides and biscuits along with some questionable desserts. Location was very clean and open. 5 stars is only for the fact that it's a buffet of KFC chicken-- can't get that just anywhere, peoples! It is in fact, as good as it gets! read more

Went through drive through since it was already 9:25 p.m. and they close at 10, and let me tell you the ladies that where working there were amazing. They where so sweet, and very friendly. Thank you ladies for a beautiful customer service. Didn't get there names, but who ever was working night today 11/15/19 you girls are the best. read more

This is too the KFC in west Hemet, I've been Patronizing your establishment for over 10 years and on July 20th, 2023, I got the worst service ever far as the food quality. On that day I came into your establishment to buy my mom some chicken to celebrate her birthday but what I got in return was the worst chicken I ever had from KFC, I'm a caterer and I know my chicken, I ordered a 12 piece chicken feast for my mom and what I got was 6 pieces of dried out chicken breast that had been sitting under a heat lamp all day 2 small pieces of thighs when you pull them apart it was like leather and 4 drumsticks that were so small one bite and you are done and also tasted like leather. This was so Embarrassing to me and my fiancé. So my fiancé called your establishment July 21st to rectify this situation but all we got was an arrogant, self-centered manager who thinks his restaurant can't do anything wrong and did not apologize and treated my fiancé as if she lying about the situation, his management skills were unbecoming as a manager and should be dealt with severe penalties even if you think you're right you don't talk to a customer like that, Whoever was the manager at 12:30 PM on July 21st needs to be taught management skills. THAT CHICKEN WAS YOUR SCRAPS AND YOU KNOW IT!!! Whoever is reading this be careful when you're ordering at this place because you just might get day old chicken or their end of scraps.... smh read more

I Used the drive through. I ordered a 2 piece chicken meal with mashed potatoes and cole slaw. Drove home and discovered they forgot the cole slaw. The chicken was dry and I could have eaten the mashed potatoes with a straw. They were that watery. I will never eat here again. read more

Very dissatisfied with the managers Frank service. We were given a certificate for outstanding achievement from my kids soccer coach. He wanted to redeem it and we headed to the nearest kfc. I asked if the voucher was accepted at their store and as soon as he saw it he told the nice cashier to give him a minute but with an attitude. Additionally we were purchasing a family meal. I don't know if he thought we were only there to get the free food. But he made us wait for over 10 minutes without acknowledging us and continued to make orders for drive through. I asked again just to know if the voucher was good or not so I can complete the order that I was going to pay for. Again he was very rude and with a nasty attitude that he couldn't help us to give him a minute that he already told the cashier to wait. This is a very bad way to do business and will be telling other parents from the team not to go to this facility so they won't have this bad experience. read more

The food there was awful. I got incredibly sick after 5 hours of ingesting just for it to come back up . I wish I'm exaggerating when I say that was the worse I've felt in my life due to food poisoning . Had the worse stomach pain and violent vomiting on top of It . I don't recommend it to anyone read more

I have to start with the good; The food was fresh, and delicious, the service was friendly and fast...but we didn't get any butter or honey with our biscuits. If it's policy to make the customer ask for such things, it should be posted that butter and honey are only handed out when requested(cheapskate trick). If it was just an oversight I understand, we're all human and make mistakes. But I sure would of liked to enjoy those biscuits I paid for. read more

This was the worst food ever. It was all old tasting none of it was fresh. I feel like throwing up. I will NEVER eat at KFC again.

Worst KFC. There was a lack of food. I was waiting for 10 minutes before the biscuits. There is a horrible amount of flies. I was fighting them off. I could not enjoy my food. The mac and cheese was watery. The rest of the food was great!!! I will not be going back the this location.I also complained to the manager! read more

KFC ALL YOU CAN EAT BUFFET!! What more can you say? A lot actually.. the $8.99 price includes a drink! A VERY GOOD DEAL! The buffet offers several styles of KFC Children, but only thighs and leg pieces; we asked for wings at the counter and were given 4... but had to ask. The buffet included mashed potatoes, gravy, green beans, corn, biscuits with butter & honey, enchiladas, salad, fruit, cherry cobbler.. and more. ALL YOU CAN EAT! We were there on a very busy Sat. Night, and found the buffet to be well attended to and fairly well stocked; which is hard to do when one customer would come over and literally take every piece of chicken as they put it out! FUN TO WATCH IF YOU ARE NOT NEXT IN LINE WAITING FOR CHICKEN! They promptly brought out more.. what can you say, its a buffet. Serve up a mountain of potatoes and a sea of gravy if you must (personally, we find it easier to just go back for more). We found the people going thru the buffet line to be entertaining to watch and overall an OK experience for the money; not sure its something we will rush back to as we found the chicken to be over cooked and a bit dried out. Something that's hard to do with KFC Chicken, but seems to happen at all KFC stores now! The buffet and restaurant were kept very clean and the staff friendly enough considering the "Take Out" line went out the door! Every seat for the buffet was full... HEMET MUST REALLY LOVE CHICKEN! This is an amazingly busy KFC! read more

I love KFC buffet. This one has more comfortable seating and its larger than Lake Elsinore. It costs more than Lake Elsinore and the chicken is under a hotlamp so its not as hot as Lake Elsinore if you dont catch it just coming out. They didnt have enough crispy legs so I had to settle for regular, I asked to get what I wanted but they told me they would bring more out but there wasnt enough, unacceptable! You have to order at the counter in Lake elsinore but at least you get exactly what you want piping hot. They have pre order deep fried turkey but they were sold out, bummer!!! read more

HAIR IN MY FOOD. i ordered lunch box and found white hair bout 3 inches long attached to chicken. Gross as hell. read more

KFC - Fast Food Near Me - Hemet, California

So to start things off good, the chicken was fresh and tasty. Although they were out of wedges we still enjoyed our meal. Now the bad , I got a Mountain Dew as a beverage and I could not find my stars once it came down to drink it. So of course I opened the lid, and what do I found?? An ANT!! I had JUST gotten my drink and was so upset. I just tossed it. Thank god I couldn't find my stats and was forced to open the lid or else I would have been drinking an ant read more

Yes, a KFC Buffet! The only reason I didn't give them 5 stars is because I had ask them to put out more chicken and extra plates. We weren't planning on eating in Hemet but the thought of KFC Buffet... We couldn't resist. read more

Employees are super duper rude. They kept yelling and giving us attitude especially to my foreign mom. The manager is horrible. DONT EVER GO THERE. THEY YELL A LOT AND THEYRE RUDE. read more

I loved it. Had 0 issues. Food was fresh and continually stocked. Deff coming back

Always great food! Big portions! Clean friendly staff.. love the kids love the chicken and I love the side best mash potatoes and grave ever!!! read more

I stopped by and food was way better than the last time that I visited. I am very happy to support the businesses in my city, especially those that take the time to correct the issues I mentioned on my previous review. Customer service was great! read more

I was going to give this place 2 stars compared to the East Florida location which I gave one star. But it changed due to inconsistency.. I was allowed to use the bathroom at this one which was good and it was somewhat clean and lit so it was usable. The employees were friendly and the lady cashier even offered to help take my tray to the table. But I kept having to ask for stuff because they don't have it out like napkins and salt and pepper. And to switch out the silverware. They had no salt (?!) so I only got to have pepper for my mashed potatoes. How do you run out of salt? This is an inventory/management issue. Last I checked those salt packets come in huge boxes and obviously you order before you get low on stock. Or make it work and substitute..go to the store and charge the company or another KFC. Don't be out of salt. The popcorn chicken was easily half the serving amount of the east Florida location. Why? The east Florida location served the popcorn chicken combo in a bucket and this one served it in a smaller to go style container. The inconsistency alone of this meal turned me off and ruined the vibe of the experience. Other than that it is way cleaner and nicer looking than the dingy ghetto east Florida location. read more

I stopped by last evening and placed my order in the drive-thru at 8:12. I waited and waited and waited. Unfortunately I was in a line and couldn't get out of it. When I finally got to the window at 8:38 I asked to speak to the manager about the excessive wait. She never apologized and just said they were running late because of the two cars in front of me. They never offered any compensation in the way of a free drink and acted shocked that I thought a 26 minute wait for an order of chicken popcorn was unreasonable. It's amazing at the poor customer service considering a new chicken place opened across the street. I won't be going back. read more

went with my friend just to go eat sum chicken and i don't kno if it's just cus i'm stupid but how in the fuck do u read that menu... like i was having a whole ass seizure up there just trying to order some damn chicken. anyways the food was pretty good, no complaints (i had some chicken tenders, mac and cheese, mashed potatoes, and coleslaw) but i noticed they had a buffet... which i was like woah! but i also noticed that they had plastic plates... for the buffet,,, like binch just get regular dishes and a dishwasher come on! but yeah wouldn't really come back but it was a good experience! read more

maria maria maria very bad customer service for being a manager i ask for a ranch before i pay for the order she says remond me when i give you the order. comes the order and now she says its 20 cents. i was upset and said no. i asked you before i paid. nope 20 cents. so she would rather give me a refund and waste the food for the 20 cents. read more

I have been to this particular location a few times and have found it to be unsatisfactory. I ordered the buffet all 3 times and have had to ask someone to bring more chicken. They do not check the buffet periodically to see what needs to be refilled. When I asked for more chicken the cashier said " I will get some momentarily." What does that mean? 10 minutes, 20 minutes? When another customer complained then more chicken was brought out. By the way, the food in the buffet was cold to warm but not hot. The restaurant was dirty, trash on the floor and food on the seats. The table had been wiped down but not the seats. The walls had food on it and it grossed me out to stare at it while eating. I think next time I'll drive a few extra miles to another location. read more

Most of the food at KFC is not only bad for you (greasy chicken), but it usually upsets my stomach. I stopped by to try their new "Georgia Gold" chicken on a whim. They've been advertising like crazy. Do NOT order this chicken! It was the most vile tasting thing I have ever tasted. The first couple of bites, I thought, well it's not great but maybe.... Then after a few more, I literally felt like I was going to throw up. Horrible. Complete waste of money! read more

This is a unique KFC because they serve lunch and dinner buffets. You can buy your tradiional meals or do buffet. I decided to do buffet. I actually got fast service today. There's normally a five minute wait between customers but I guess I was lucky. They charge $0.85 if you use your debit card. The buffet has 3 kinds of chicken...bake, original, and extra crispy. The bake was kind of dry and the original was good. For sides they have corn, green beans, baked beans, biscuits, rice, and spaghetti. I had about 2 plates before I called it quits Fountains drinks come with the food and unlimited refills. read more

i'm not the only one who thinks KFC overall is tops fast food. i'd do this buffet again in a heartbeat. adults: $8.79 children under 12: $4.99 buffet line kept fresh & stocked with all the KFC basics. i love KFC mashed potatos & gravy and coleslaw--i piled that shit on, without the constraints of standard portions. i was tempted to drink KFC gravy, like Eric Cartman. their white gravy excellent too. good alfredo pasta & cherry cobler. i ate 5 grilled drumsticks, 1 grilled breast & 1 extra crispy drumstick. good staff. trashy patrons. no music. exceeded my expectations read more

I went through the drive-thru at night. I asked the girl if she had chicken wings because I couldn't find them on your menu board outside. and she said of course. She even mentioned that there was a box with four wings and two side dishes for $5.99+tax., but was not on the board. I should've known better. I repeated myself to the young lady that the order was going to have chicken wings and she answered yes. When I got home and opened up my box it had a leg and thigh. A leg and thigh sound nothing similar to wings. I'm very disappointed because even after I tried calling him back letting him know that my order was not what I wanted. Several times they picked up the phone and just hang up. Next time I want chicken I rather wait in line for Popeyes. You would think that the team that works at Kentucky fried chicken would want to impress the customer by quality food and better service but they're showing Popeyes they have no competition. read more

This is the worst KFC ever!!!! I'm going to file a complaint with the attorney general and the Better Business Bureau. I had my wife get the new fill up extra crispy tenders. We didn't get the coleslaw and sauces. When my wife got home I looked at the receipt and we were charged $32.38. I pointed out to my wife that we should have been charged $20 plus tax. So we tried to call them to clear up the issue and they would not answer the phone, after about 10 rings they just pick up the phone and hang back up. Really? Who would want to get food from a place that treats there customers this way. What else do they do with the food they serve.. just read the other posts.. THIS KFC NEEDS TO BE SHUT DOWN... read more

Overall pretty decent. Their Colonel's Buffet is actually a pretty good deal; just make sure you go there closer to a peak time so you get a better turnover of the food. $8.99 for an all-you-can-eat Colonel-stravaganza, complete with biscuits, drink, and dessert! The food is pretty average by KFC standards, as is the service. The setup for the buffet is a bit awkward, but other than that, good. read more

These guys are so great! We came in to celebrate a high school graduation for my twin niece and nephew tonight and they just went above and beyond with kindness. Their service was great and so was the food!! read more

Probably the only KFC I know that has a buffet. Love me some of that fried chicken. All I need is the fried chicken, peas, and mashed potatoes. Unfortunately the buffet doesn't dish out potato wedges but totally worth it. read more

Chicken was cold!!! I ordered 10 piece hot wings in drive thru, I even asked for them fresh and still cold and flavorless !

Food was ok because it was not really fresh.and the lemonade was too sour. The chicken tenders we're soggy and the Mac and cheese was gross. Nextime I will just go to Popeyes which is better. read more

Lov lov lovin' it! Can't get enough of this finger lickin' good chick yi chick chicken ;)

Ok I've been wanting to try this buffet for a while now and I finally did. The buffet was $8.99 w/sm. drink for adults. What they don't tell you is the chicken pieces are drumsticks and thighs only. I asked the lady filling the buffet up, if she was going to bring out some breast pieces soon and she just about ripped my head off !!! She said that breast meat was extra and after must huffing on her part she said she could bring me a wing. I politely said no thank you. She gave me dirty looks every time I saw her.I always treat people with respect and I expect the same from them. The young guy who took our order was very nice so it was surprising that they had a mean worker on the buffet line. The other reviews were right the food was good, especially if you don't mind dark meat and grouchy old ladies. read more

Today I made the drive to see if this KFC buffet was real. Well it is real. If your a die hard KFC fan might be up your alley. We came in on a day the AC broke so that the visit a little worse. But now about the food it was fresh and tasty. ***Buffet a little small for 8.99 with a drink. But then again KFC doesn't have many choices. On the buffet the have a salad bar with lots of extras. Hot table had fried chicken, baked chicken, biscuits, mashed potatoes, turkey gravy and brown, Mac n cheese, rice, chicken and dumpling soup, broccoli and cheese, apple cobbler, baked beans, string beans, chicken noodle soup. Taste just like if you ordered it just you can eat till you puke! read more

I love this location first because they have a buffet. Not too many of those around here. Secondly because the staff is very friendly. They always make sure the buffet is stocked with hot and fresh chicken and sides. You cannot beat the price either...less than 10 bucks with drink and dessert. read more
