Quality may be subpar because it is a fast food chain restaurant, but I've had no issues with the service here. I mean you're paying for cheap and convenience, so I don't understand why people are complaining. If you want better food then eat at another dine-in local restaurant or cook your own food, in my opinion, of course. Don't want to offend people - we are a sensitive bunch in SF. As always if you can afford to do so, a dollar tip goes a long way for these minimum wage workers. Being cheap is kind of a turn off :/ Recommend with my utmost respectful regards if you're trying to buy cheap to go food. read more

KFC - Fast Food Near Me - San Francisco, California

Date: Saturday, June 14th, 2025 Party of: 2 Meal: Late Dinner Takeaway Time Ordered: around 10:15pm Time Picked Up: about 25 mins later Ordered: via KFC app Taste of KFC 6 pc. Deal ($20) x2 *6 pc. Chicken Only x2 *Cole Slaw x2 *Mac & Cheese *Secret Recipe Fries *Mashed Potatoes x2 *Gravy x2 *4 Biscuits x2 Sauces *Hot Sauce x4 *KFC Sauce ($0.29) *Comeback Sauce ($0.29) I was watching a TV show and they were eating KFC. I am easily influenced when it comes to food. So when it was time to have dinner with the hubby, I suggested fried chicken. He was down, so I found a spot on the way home from SJ to SF. The app predicted it would take about 25 mins to prepare, but when I placed the order, they said it would only take like 10-15 mins, so I guess around that time at night, no need to leave ample time for takeout. I got two of their taste of KFC meals. I didn't know this at the time, but they are individual sides, so the smaller ones. I would advise against doing mash and gravy as separate sides. The mash was sooooo tiny. And the gravy container was larger than the mash. Feels like it should be swapped as you should have more potatoes than gravy no? The chicken was as expected. I got one bucket spicy and one reg. I likes the spicier one more since the batter wasn't as thick. There were not a lot of options for KFC along 280 closer to SF, so I'm glad this one is open late night. REVIEW #3788 read more

I wanted to recognize Maria C at the Taraval street location. Maria was so cordial, respectful and pleasant from beginning to end. She made sure my friend and I were very happy with our order and went above and beyond. We need more happy faces like hers at front counters everywhere. Thank you Maria C! read more

Short black haired girl at the register was super rude out of no where and yelled at me to speak up when she couldn't hear me than didn't even look at me when she handed me my food. The food in the bag was not our order and she had handed it to someone else before us, than rolled her eyes and got pissed off when I told her as if I had gotten the order wrong. Then she didn't even call out our number when our food was done, she just left it on the counter. So rude. read more

The food quality at this particular KFC store is terrible and has been for more than 2 years. This is the first negative review I have ever left on Yelp over 20 years so I'm not likely to do this unless I want to warn other people but the company has to do something about this. The food is badly overcooked every time I've ordered it several times in the past 2 years. The Geary Street store is okay but the Taraval store really sucks. This store has been consistently bad and something has to be done about it because KFC is starting to get overall bad ratings everywhere and I really like KFC and heat to see this happen. read more

This is the worst taco bell ever. They forgot the meat in my burrito twice. All the food tasted bad. It's like the employees made the food with their eyes closed. They also took forever to make my food even though it all tasted like trash. The soda was flat. Terrible experience. read more

Came on a Wednesday night to try their new fried chicken sandwich. Ordered to-go. The sandwich is seasoned well, but doesn't compare to Popeye's. It wasn't a good type of crispy, was stale-ish. Chicken was dry, but bearable. It wasn't as thick as Popeye's. Buns were good, soft. Sauce was creamy, but that was really it. Staff are pretty slow at this time. Would I get the chicken sandwich again? Probably not. read more

KFC - Fried Chicken Sandwich - Fast Food Near Me - San Francisco, California

Yes, 4 stars for a fast food chain. Calm yourself. I love spending time in my kitchen. Feeding my loved ones healthy delicious meals and baking wonderful treats is my secret weapon to feel happy every day. KFC? Yes darlings. When you are tired and just want to get dinner on the table, no need to call for takeout. No need to microwave whatever frozen thing you know won't look in real life like it does on the box. Get your rice cooker, some uncooked rice, chicken bone broth, spices, and nestle that KFC chicken on top of the rice then start the cycle and voila! Tender chicken, beautifully seasoned rice and all of that took little effort and less than 20 minutes! Dress it with green onions and your home made chili oil and your home made kimchi. Your family will love it and you will feel happy you fed them well. YouTube is your friend if you are not skilled in the kitchen for recipes and tutorials. This KFC location has staff in protective wear with carry-out option that is super easy and fast. Grab a 3 piece box of chicken on your way home and try the rice cooker situation. Did you know in Japan everyone orders KFC for the holidays that they have massive pre-orders? Lucky for us, we can get it any time. Stay healthy! read more

KFC - 3 pc original cooked with rice, bone broth, seasoning, and my kimchi and my chili oil to make everyones fav rice cooker chicken! - Fast Food Near Me - San Francisco, California

Haven't been to a KFC in a very long time and thought it would be a good treat. My bad for not checking my order before I left but I was watching them bag everything. Later in the evening when dinner time came around HALF my oder wasn't in the bag. The one biscuit I got was as hard as a hockey puck!!! Everything was correct on the receipt but again half the order wasn't in the bag! The quality of what we did get, was not good. Dried up chicken, nothing more than can corn, the coslaw was good but nothing else. I will never go back to any KFC at this point! read more

It's been a while but my kid likes to come in here to get chicken nuggets. Paulette and all the staff are always so friendly, kind, and responsive. We really appreciate it! read more

Take out 6/3/2021. Nowadays, almost every fast food joint has a new spicy chicken sandwich. There was a big $4 spicy sandwich promotion poster outside of this KFC. My first bite into this sandwich put a slight smile on my face. It was a familiar taste of a regular piece of KFC chicken without the grease with a mild level of spice. The bun was soft and buttery. The orange sauce was a little tangy. The center of the chicken breast was a bit dry. Overall, it wasn't bad and went above my expectations. Popeye's is still better, hands down. read more

The staff seemed very overworked and undertrained but the manager kept on yelling at them and gave off a very unfriendly and downright hostile vibe. The manager reminded me more of an annoyed costumer then anything. There was also a 40 minute wait for Taco Bell and no wait for KFC for some reason. read more

Went here and all goods. The dish are very good and absolutely going back. the chicken is very tender

I can't confirm other ppl's experiences at this KFC, I could only give my own experience on this place & it was definitely positive. Paulette the associate who helped us was both helpful & welcoming. She does speak very directly with a louder tone, so some ppl may misinterpret this as being rude, but nothing is further than the truth. She is just direct & honest without any false sugariness which we actually appreciate. Paulette helped us order & set up pick up of the fried thanksgiving turkey. No fuss no muss. She took our lunch order for both KFC & Taco Bell with speedy efficacy & made sure everything we wanted was correct on the order. When our order came out, she took a quick glance & yelled to the kitchen "can I have a Spicy Chicken Sandwich please". So she also made sure the order wasn't missing anything. Then she motioned for us to get our order, thanked us wholeheartedly, & wished us a good rest of the day with a genuine & gentle smile. This kind of no nonsense yet welcoming service is definitely my cup of tea. Thank you Paulette. We'll be back! read more

Still nasty. The chicken tenders were 30.00 for these small pieces. Once we got home we were astonished how we were swindled for such crappy small chicken read more

Horrible customer service. I was yelled at while ordering my food and I got water but she thought I got soda and proceeded to take away one of my two chicken sandwiches that I had already payed for. Do not come here. read more

i ordered online a 14 piece bucket and all i got was 8 pieces and i didn't see until i got back home. if you order from here check your food i usually check my food but i was trying to catch the bus. My receipt says 14 pieces as well so the mistake lies within kfc. Pretty sucky because i a lot for 14 pieces of chicken read more

*Service* The service here is disgusting towards us students and it's mainly from the lady who sits down with a chair as a cashier. She eats ice cream while being on the job and always talks with attitude to others, she makes others count there money multiple times cause she's lazy and I'm pretty sure it's the manager. She's a big lady who's ethnicity is black. read more

KFC is hit or miss at this location. I've had bad experience with dry chicken but went here recently and was pleasantly surprised! Chicken was juicy and flavorful! Note: Employees were not wearing PPE behind the new acrylic shield. There were around 5 people working the back. read more

I'm a fried chicken lover and a KFC fan so when i first noticed this place when first moved to the sunset area i was delighted ! Workers in the restaurant were nice and greeted me with smile , were comprehensive when i took sometime to decide what to get. Trauma began when i first met the manager of the store one like i've never seen before ! She has the worst attitude and she treats costumers workers and delivery drivers in the worst way possible. I hate this place never coming back. read more

5 stars for customer service 6 stars for following COVID guidelines. This woman needs a raise, and probably has deserved it for a long time now. Today is Wednesday, I called Monday because a large office was craving a large KFC order for today. Believe it or not, door dash limits your KFC order to under 100$ and their order was $106. In order to please this office, I wanted to go above and beyond and deliver it myself. She assured me she could do it but needed an hour heads up. I called 10 minutes before they opened (11am) Wednesday and she answered. I was blown away. The order was ready within the hour. While I waited inside KFC for them to bag the order, I was extremely impressed with her ability to put her customers in line from behind the counter. Kept everyone 6 ft apart and on their respective black lines. I don't go to fast food restaurants frequently, but I would return to this KFC. I wish I could tip her but the best thing I could do was show how much I appreciated her hard work and work ethic. She cares about her job, she cares about the food,5!3 cleanliness and the customers. I wish I got her name, but you'll know who I am talking about as soon as you walk in. read more

I completely concur with others who commend Paulette and her crew. She anticipates the customers' needs, such as providing a drink holder or offering condiments without being asked. Yes, she can be direct, but never rude. On the rare occasion that there is a problem, Paulette makes sure that things get fixed. One time an order got screwed up, but when I called about it, she made sure she made up for it the next visit. "To err is human," but to fix things is the stuff of great customer service! read more

The soda machine is always flat and the staff is always rude and unhelpful. I highly recommend going to a different KFC if you can.

After blowing into the city after a short flight from San Diego, I crossed paths with this KFC advertising their Tuesday special of 2-pieces of chicken for $0.99. Never one to turn down a good deal, I dropped in and ordered 4 orders, totaling 8 pieces of chicken. I got 4 of the regular, 2 extra crispy, and 2 grilled pieces of chicken. Since the turnover was so high during the busy day, the chicken was very fresh and piping hot. My favorites were the original and grilled but I found that much of the oil had not drained from the extra crispy, making it a very oily eating experience. Overall though, it's a great price for a decent fast food meal. This binge session probably didn't do my diet much good and is making all of the exercise for naught. But hey, I can't keep eating boring old salads can I? Maybe once in a while isn't so bad. I can't wait till next Tuesday! Food: 7/10 Service: 5/10 Price: $ Atmosphere: 4/10 read more

KFC does not accept Apple Pay, so I ended up using their card machine. I took out my visa card, which I rarely do and inserted my chip card in their machine. The next day, I was alerted by my VISA card that there was potential fraud happening on my card. A $1 charge was made by LevelUp, which is the platform KFC uses for their online orders. Someone attempted to charge a higher priced item on my card. Someone called my credit card company pretending to be me trying to add another person access to my account. I recommend you use cash when you pay for your KFC order. Any involvement with LevelUp is a risk. read more

I ordered 8 pcs combo family meal yesterday around 5:15pm, chicken pieces were loose and the biscuit tastes abnormal but I did ate the whole biscuit. After a few hours, started to have nausea and chills. I didn't eat anything else that day. I will not go back to this kfc. Bad experience, almost need to go ER. read more

I went to order the popcorn chicken that they currently have a promotion on. 70 pieces for $10. I asked 2 separate associates and even showed them a picture of the promo. They assured me that was what I will be getting. So I place an order for 2 of the promo. They asked if I could wait while they cook up some more popcorn chicken. I said sure not a problem. About 10-15 later my order was ready. I should have known better and double checked my order at the restaurant because when I got home and opened up the boxes. It was nothing close to 70 pieces. Maybe if I added both boxes together there might have been 70. KFC your prices have been going up while your quality have definitely been going down. I've been a KFC fan for almost 35 years. I've tried to turn the other cheek over the past decade, but I think this last visit is the one that broke the camel's back. Thank you for the memories but peace out. Ps a friend of mine went to another location and his experience was the same. No where near what they advertised. read more

Absolutely disgraceful. The black lady who takes an order is rude. I don't know what her story, but she is bad for business. She treated us so bad. Others who aren't Asian, she asked if they want a sauce or not. But for us, she asked nothing. When I asked for a sauce, she said she'd gave us already. Yeah right one sauce for a big famliy meal. First of all, we paid almost $50 for this order, we ain't eat free, the way she told us, and the way she treated us is horrible. Lady if you read this one, you should know you are a bitch. You're racist over Asians. I'm not coming back there. read more

Worst customer service I've ever experienced period . I understand shift changes and all , but really + - I was a walk in customer - placed a relatively easy board order in front of 4 other walk- ins and each one of them received their orders 1st and promptly addressed it to the cashier and was told the order somehow got ereased off the board . Fortunately I still had the paper receipt . And still had to wait another 5 + minutes . F.... rude incompetent establishment . Never coming to this locat again . 2 managers on duty and they're both horsing around in the back area . Unbelievable . Hope this actually gets reviewed by someone that matters . Didn't even get an apology or a beverage comp . read more

I just came back from the one on Taraval. Yes I should have checked my order before I left cause they screwed me. I ordered 3 chicken tender dinner and a 2 piece chicken dinner. I asked what I could have as a side and he said whatever I want from the choices and they all come with mashed potatoes. so I got the slaw and a Mac and cheese. When I got home there was no mashed and 4 really hard biscuits. I mean really hard. The strips were hard and dry and no sauces. What the f...k? Ths place has really gone down hill. Then I looked at my receipt and saw they charged me for 2 extra biscuits that I did not order. They suck! I will never go there again. read more

This place has a new make over and it's nice and clean.

The order arrived lightning fast, which was great--plus they do delivery from Yelp app, huzzah! But sadly my experience wasn't incredible. I guess I should have known? As much as I know many fast food places can put lots of love and care into their food, often I've found they don't and the marketing is nothing like the real thing. (Duh, I know.) Anyway, I was craving fried chickeen so ordered on a whim. They missed out two of the sides I requested. I didn't fully comprehend how small the sides were, so those two missing ones meant I had much less food that I would have preferred. The quality of the chicken wasn't amazing. (Small pieces, a little overcooked for my preference.) All in all, I imagine more value in putting in a large family order with several vs trying to scratch a fried chicken itch for one. read more
