This is the KFC I go for four year in my high schools, I always buying their chicken because they make my food right. Keep doing good business in the future. read more

I went in and saw three males were chatting behind the counter very close to each other. No one wears a mask. While the person who took my order, the other two were still chatting. Toward the end, the person who was handling my order started talking while he was putting a paper lid on my bucket. One of the other two males grabbed a paper bag, opened up while still talking, my order was placed in the paper bag while all three were talking. As I was driving home, I just couldn't shake off the thoughts that their saliva might have landed on their counter, my bucket, and paper bag. I ended up throwing everything away. We are in a pandemic, how could they being so ignorant and selfish. Never return to this place again! read more

Just because the lady with the glasses that works at the register is super friendly! She really is. I swear, every time I go to this KFC, she is working!! Do not go from Mon-Fri between the times of 11am-12:30pm...Abraham Lincoln High School is right up the block so the students have off campus lunch. Basically every eating spot on Taravel St. between 19th Ave and 27 Ave is filled with students. Not worth dealing with them so it's best to wait till their lunch is over. Overall, this KFC/Taco Bell location is super tiny. Right at the corner. Not really the best place to eat you meal. It's also best to take it to-go. read more

I have recently ordered delivery through Uber Eats from both the KFC and Taco Bell sides here. Every order I have received has had something wrong: missed items, wrong items, or a mixture of both. The food itself was fine, meaning it's what you expect from KFC and/or Taco Bell. But the intractable in attentiveness is discouraging. So I will satisfy my low-rent fast-food impulses elsewhere. read more

1st of all If u look at my profile I can't remember ever giving a 1 star review.....this is the 2nd time here and always no spicy chicken, it's 8:29pm with 1 1/2 more hours till close and no spicy at all.....the worst thing is the bait and switch, I was online at KFC.com and it told me to go to this location for the $20 fill bucket meal, I lined up to find out they said they don't have it....they told me they have the 8 piece meal instead (it was identical to the $20 fill bucket but for $8.00 more), they also taped on .99 cents to the $5.00 meal.....being in the car business for over 20 yrs I'm familiar with bait and switch but for KFC to do it....it guess it's karma, SMH !!! If I could give no star I would !!! Your better off driving to skyline...... read more

Fat lady in the back takes her time with your food and stares at you. Completely rude and will never come back!

Close to boyfriend's place. Pretty yummy chicken. I still like Popeyes over KFC. Just sayin. ;)

Excellent nuggets. So delicious! Very nice place for a convenient snack. read more

"Oh GOD what is that smell?" "KFC." I've had this conversation a few times, and I was wondering, how can this place be so stinky? My boyfriend claims that there is a runoff of "kitchen fluids" (ie chicken guts, grease, sweat, taco bell hot sauce) that are washed away from the restaurant and down out the side and into the street, which happens to be right next to our apartment. Yuck! Eat here if you must, but walking through the Mist of Stink is the first battle you must fight. The rest come later. Peace out, Taco Bell/KFC. read more

Very gross place. Feels dirty and rundown. Plus always flies/gnats flying around. Honestly the don't seem to do much business here either because I'm always the only customer in there when I go. I think they only reason they're surviving is from the kids from Lincoln High School.... wont' be back... read more

They're usually friendly here, but the food is so-so. Maybe it's because I get here pretty late at night, but they're usually out of Extra Crispy chicken. Last night, my mac & cheese was pretty burnt (scraped from the bottom of the pan) and it was this bright fluorescent orange color! Another time I was here, they were out of chicken (?!?) and had to wait 15 minutes for them to cook a new batch. Plus 1 star for actually have a smile on their face. That's definitely a rarity for fast food workers. read more

The employee in this place probably sanitizes the place once every couple week. There are flies all over the place, and the cashier is super rude. read more

Really Nice Folks working there. The lady at the register is really friendly and the staff tries their best to help you. Why are people giving them 3 stars for Good rating. I was going to give them 4 stars but since people are giving this store middle or low scores just for being a KFC or Fast Food. What do you expect! It's a freaking Fast Food Chain. BTW, this store has a Tuesday deal vs some stores that don't in SF. read more

Same as any other KFC. I understand the low ratings because its a KFC, but many locals go here for food to-go. There might be a long line but an empty restaurant. I dont think it will go out of business soon. read more

My girlfriend and I came in and was craving some taco bell and kfc. As we ordered our food, we saw the most generous, kind-hearted moment. I'm not sure but she looks like the owner. She helped a homeless person with food and even asked if he needed any money too?!!! read more

This kfc location is HORRIBLE. The manager always talks like she is right and refuses Postmates orders from time to time because either they are missing parts of the order or they are training or they are just too rude to respect POSTMATE deliverers.THEY CANCEL AND SAY 'Postmate drivers have NO PATIENCE' in front of me when I am in front of them ordering for a client when I am a postmate driver in front of them. They do not handle their business correctly all the time when postmate drivers delivery, but they always treat their regular customers nice. Please don't back talk me in front of me when I am in front of you like I am not their manager, I recognize your name: Catalina, Kevin, or other Kevin. Next time I will file a complaint on you, manager of Taraval location for terrible, terrible service for talking against me in third person when I am face to face with you. I do not appreciate that. read more

This is a disgusting kfc! The chicken is half cooked and It looks weird. I'll never order from here again..

Come because of Paulette, she's a gem and offers a great a show! She has a personality that will keep you on your toes. Definitely an experience coming to this location. read more

I've been coming to this KFC since high school was just up the block. Boy, has it change since then. I would come in every so often and notice it has be on a down fall. Last Saturday was the last straw. I came in during the dinner rush so I was already expecting it to be a little slow. But, 30 MINUTES for 12 piece meal slow?!?! I only noticed 4 workers. 2 in the back and 2 in the front. The young asian girl who took my order was on point though and was hauling ass placing orders and packing orders. The other young asian dude, not so much. Seem like he was trying to spit game at his girl co-worker the whole time and moving super slow packing orders. He had alot to say to his co-work, but not a word to me when he handed me my order finally. No Thank You no nothing. Asked him for KFC hot sauce, and just pointed to the empty sauce tray. Told him their out, he mean mugged me and grabbed some from under the counter and just tossed it into the tray. If I wasn't with my 2 kids and 10 years younger, I would of slapped the S**T out of him. Also, wassup with them allowing all the homeless people to take up half of the store? There were 3 of them but had so many bags that took up the whole corner of the store (keep in mind the store isn't that big in the first place). Also had 3 big suitcases and bags blocking the entrance. I don't mine if they eat there, their paying customer as well, but have them leave their stuff outside or something. It was during dinner rush hour, there were no room for other customers to stand around waiting for their order to be SLOWLY made. Extra star went to the young asian girl working the front. Will I be back, probably, but Popeye's will be my first option. read more

I go to this KFC only to buy food for someone in Ocean Beach area. This store is small. It has small parking lot on the side of the building which will fit like 4 cars. The entrance is on Taraval St. westbound with the exit to the cross street of Taraval St. The place does not have actual dining tables, only some kind of bar table against the wall. One time I bought steak taquito, the cash register person did not know what taquito is (she's Latina!) but did not bother to confirm my order and got me beef taco. Then when I complained that that beef taco was not what I ordered, she looked at me funny and another employee who apparently knew what taquito was, demanding me to pay another $2 because the steak taquito was supposed to be more expensive than the steak taco. She took the $2 but did not ring it to the cash register. What a loser! They did not even apologize. Yesterday they did not have original wings and if I still wanted them I had to wait for 20 minutes. They did not have baked beans also. Well, I used to work for a KFC (find my review for other KFC). When the employees make mistake, first, they are supposed to be apologetic then fix the problem without charging more. read more

Better than Irving. Friendlier, cleaner, faster, and more efficient. I gave the Trainer on Irving a list of what pieces I want for what flavor chicken and he still messed up. Taraval got it right. read more

No the best place to eat but it's decent. Just avoid the school crowd during 12 noon. can't go wrong with $0.99 chicken deal! just check your order. you order the original they give you crispy. the fat black lady got an attitude. I just want to bitch slap her sometimes. read more

I was very disappointed in this KFC. I used to think it was fine but now I just cannot tolerate the bad customer service and how they make the food here. The last time I ordered a chalupa the outside was nearly burned! I never had an almost burned chalupa before. Way to ruin one of my favorite foods. I ordered tacos supreme and some other item with chicken, a side mashed potatoes and a biscuit. This lady was rude and not at all friendly. So I'm guessing they don't care about customers. Also I saw this other lady who threw my nachos in the bag like they weren't going to crack. So rough. I can see that the people who work here don't take pride in their work who would rather watch T.V. Next time I want KFC I will travel all the way to Irving st. instead. read more

This is the first one star review I have given, and there are many legitimate reasons. First of all, it's not like this restaurant is understaffed, but the service is just extremely slow. I waited in a two person line for around twenty minutes, and there were five staff members and a manager present. I was pretty relieved when I finally got my food, but then, I realized: the chicken tenders were stale, and the manager, without realizing it said oh, those are the mashed potatoes from lunch. This was at dinner time and they looked and tasted horrible. I am not happy about the service and the food here. I hope this is the only time this will happen. Finally, all the menu prices are inconsistent, and there are no more daily deals or anything. read more

Chicken tastes good. Place is clean but most of all there is a nice lady that has been working there a long time and is the most upbeat lady. Fun, funny, proficient...If I had a company I would steal her away because she deserves a job where she could get paid properly for as good as she is. Her name is Paulette read more

This. Place. Needs. To. Go! I do from time to time enjoy me some fast food, however this place does not fit in with the rest of the neighborhood. I get that it serves Lincoln high school and all, but there are much better LOCAL options within a block of this place. All KFC does for the block is generate trash, because per "corporate" policy, they are not allowed to put trash cans outside their business (I have a sneaking suspicion it has more to do with laziness). I think this location could be better used as a locally owned anything. And that is my mini KFC rant. read more

Just got home from my attempt to buy a KFC dinner for the family. I asked for a twelve piece deal of original recipe white meat and they were all out. I asked how long for another batch to be made and the fellow behind the counter said five minutes But they were already sold. WFF it's five o'clock and they don't have any white meat ready??? With that I turned around and left. I drove to 20th and Irving but there was eight people in line and no parking for blocks. No KFC for us tonight. read more

Manager works his but off and moves the line along nicely, but the food is always a hit or miss. You'll either get super freshly cooked food or chicken that has been sitting under the warmer for probably over an hour. The place needs a serious steam cleaning especially the area near the soda fountain. read more

I love the beef doubledilla. Excellent blend of yummy grease and fried tortilla goodness.

I LOVE KFC! The delicious goodness of oil drenched chicken body parts. YUM. And the aroma it leaves in your car leaves you drooling for days! read more

KFC is just KFC.. But there is something special with this one.. Their hot wings taste weird. There is an aftertaste that I can't determinate. Definitively not the same with hot wings from other KFCs. You can remove the aftertaste if you heavily dip them into their chili sauce served in the black bags. read more

1 star for service. Food 3 stars. Wow, where to start. I've been coming to this KFC for nearly 15 years, and had no issues with food or service until tonight at 7:45pm 1/21/2013. I walk in, make an order of chicken, make payment, and when I reached out to grab the receipt from the machine, the cashier Paulette(African-american) give me a whole world of trouble for simply grabbing the reciept! I ask who is the current manager of that particular franchise and she told me she was the manager! I asked her if she had a rough day and got snippy/snarky with me. WTF KFC, stop hiring high school dropouts for managers. Well, I'd happily drive 6 miles into Richmond district on 6th Ave. and Geary after tonight. read more

Had to stop in for a quick lunch and was "greeted" by Paulette. By "greet" I mean she said, "What do you want." There was absolutely no one else there except one person who had already received his order. I gave her my order and she said that I needed to give her the number. I again gave her my order and she grunted and rang me up and my order was wrong. I didn't expect much from KFC, but I do expect to be greeted curiously and my order taken correctly. Hope they give Paulette some much needed customer service training! read more

The pieces of chicken are getting smaller, I got the two piece chicken box today and the chicken is definitely smaller, small drum and the thighs was half a thigh. Not a good value at all. How can KFC stay in business, they have lost mine for sure read more

too much kids, and the chicken are almost never fresh bad choice. my friend ate the biscult with butter he was sick and has rash all over maybe allergic reaction. but it will be nice to see heated over a lamp food, get regulate read more

I had to wait for 30min for my food. Noah took my order and gave me the wrong order tried to give me half full mash n gravy. Nothing ready ... I came in at 7pm n had to ask 4 a refund at 742pm...ridiculous read more

When I moved to this neighborhood I was delighted to find out that there was a KFC only a short distance away. I was moving from the Tendernob and I absolutely hated venturing into the Tenderloin to get to the KFC within it. This KFC is right in front of a stop of the L train (22nd & Taraval), so if I'm coming home from downtown it's damn hard to resist getting off at that stop for some KFC. Unfortunately the food here is pretty meh. I'd say it's standard KFC food, but I swear it's as if they specifically order the tiniest chicken strips they can. The side dishes are laughable as well and really aren't worth getting. It's not because they're bad, but because they're served in some of the tiniest plastic containers I've ever seen. I see there's already a picture of one listed here. I'm far from an environmentalist but all that plastic for what must be less than 6 teaspoons of mashed potatoes is ridiculous. I've been to KFCs out of state in the past and I know some KFCs serve MUCH bigger portions. But, if you're in the mood for KFC, this will satisfy you I suppose. My only other complaint is that there are always a number of flys inside to make sure you're always paranoid and watching your food carefully so they don't land. I guess there isn't much they can do about the flys but it's probably best to order your food to go if you care about them. read more

i love kfc chickennnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn...it is pretty expensive tho. mai frend nd i was eatin da chicken. i ordered a oringinal nd she ordered a spicy. we dydnt knoe whut was whut so we asked a woman. she said we each had da wrong one. i was eatin whut mai frend wanted nd she ate whut i wanted. s we swich nd da woman gave us each an extra piece of chicken. read more

My local KFC.. they have remodeled so it's clean and theres a bit of room if you want to dine in. They have the deals and coupons etc... the staff is usually friendly, but the service can be slow at times. read more

I come here every other week, I can eat fried chicken all the time and it's easier than having to cook. The girls (Paulette and Iris) runs this place like nobody's business. Came in once when the Lincoln kids were having lunch and couldn't believe how quickly Iris and Paulette got everyone in and out. Another time, a homeless person was in line before me and Paulette treated him like an old friend with kindness and respect. BTW, the fried chicken is not bad either. Love the HOT WINGS. I alternate between Popeye's and KFC but every time I come here, I feel like I'm visiting with friends and I get to bring home fried chicken. read more
