My dad is in Vista. He's 99 and in a be nice to everybody, let them grow old gracefully and... he can't drive and I have been taking him out on Tuesday and Thursday mornings for a couple of years or so. This is close to his place and he loves KFC so we go most Tuesdays. The people are wonderful. The chicken is very inconsistent. Sometimes it's not overdone but more often it is. 75% of the time, the pieces are tiny. They are great most of the time but today they forgot the gravy. Their potatoes are not meant to be eaten plain. If the people weren't so nice, I'd lower my rating and tell you what I really feel. read more

Stop in for 14 pcs. Leg / thighs chicken only $25 . We were heading to the beach and this seems ro be the most convenient food to grab since the kids want chicken. Friendly service at the drive thru read more

Never had any issues with drive-thru or dining and online orders. Interior eating area and exterior is always clean, there's never a line at the drive-through, food is always hot! read more

KFC - Fast Food Near Me - Vista, California

Terrible location skimps your food and doesn't care about the promos !! Super dirty bathroom !!!!

Walked in the store was empty yet no greeting, waited over 10 minutes while drive through orders were being handled still no I'm sorry I'll be right with you, it's raining and they have a bucket catching a ceiling leak right in front of the chicken hot rack kinda got me thinking of this was the right place for me, decided to use the restroom so I can give them some time to catch up (stuff happens right?) men's restroom no light no toilet paper and floor is wet no way of telling if this is another leak of just urine on the floor walked away and went over to Popeyes without any issues fresh hot food there and a new spot doesn't smell like old burnt oil like the KFC location read more

Came here a couple of weeks ago and forgot to put my review. I don't live super close by decided to come and try the chicken again. It was delicious, so flavorful. The biscuits are just as I remember. Come get some food & don't forget to order hot sauce and honey. read more

If I could give less than one star today, I would. Ordered Spicy Famous Bowl from KFC from DoorDash. All good, except opened and the it was inedible. They took their regular famous bowl, and basically poured 2 tablespoons of red grease on top of it. Wasn't like hot sauce, though a hint of such, it was just grease. Even my bags were soaked in red grease. I order KFC food all the time, and never have I seen anything like this. I got in the car, and drove down. With COVID, you can't walk in now, so i had to wait in drive through. Get to window, and she said there is nothing they can do, thats just the way they are. I told her that nobody would want this much grease. Can they just switch out regular famous bowls then. She said No, and wouldn't even look at them. Said if I have a further issue, i should take it up with DoorDash. Which, BTW, I did and DoorDash saw the photos and returned my money immediately. I order KFC reasonably enough times that they should have taken care of me. That was the last time with that attitude. read more

KFC - Like TABLESPOONS of Grease had just been poured on top. - Fast Food Near Me - Vista, California

See all

Lady named Edith has horrible service. Super rude and gave us cold food. Management clearly has to do something about her if they want service here to improve. read more

The lady in the drive thru named Edith didn't let us finish our order and just told us to go to to the window said the price and gave me the drink i didn't even asked for. Terrible service with no care for the customer. The was no one inside and outside the establishment so they weren't busy at all. She just rushed us for no reason. Now we only have a meal for 1 when we wanted to order more read more

The food was okay. Don't bother looking on the website to see a menu for specific locations and prices. The menus are not all the same or the prices. For us, the prices were higher and not worth it. read more

They forgot my tenders, were rude when I called.. and the biscuits were hard.. never this store again

I enjoyed the service that Kentucky fried Chicken the ladies there were so kind to us and I hope they get a raise because that's hard work we give them our five-star rating they even said goodbye to us when we were leaving and that makes us feel special because being friendly in this world and treating people great makes the world a better place to live in thank you thank you to the hard workers at Kentucky fried Chicken the food was delicious it was very good best chicken I've had very crispy and the fries were not like fast food places the workers were super nice if I could give them 10 Stars I would!!!!! read more

Hadn't been to KFC in a few years... their darn commercials had me wanting to try the little sandwiches... so I went a few weeks ago and really liked it as well as they seemed to have enhanced the macaroni and cheese as it was really good! Tonight I was out late and was hungry should have just gone to bed but, thought I'd get one of those sandwiches and some green beans or spinach.... Their hours are 10am to 10pm.... I got their at 9:20.... sat their waiting for someone to ask for my order.... NOTHING... I got Crickets! I sat their until I thought... OK they must have closed??? So drive off and see there are a couple of cars.... I driver around to see through the front window... and YES there are 2 employees inside both had Headsets on.... NO customers inside.... so WHY were they unable to say anything over the speaker......... REDUNCULOUS! With all the restaurants closing that seemed busy.... they need to make sure they are making customers happy so they want to come back! read more

This place is very unhygienic. The bathrooms are distracting a with no toilet paper in sight. Due to this I do not trust eating food here. I can't imagine the workers are keeping cleaning. Don't eat here. read more

Friendly drive-thru service! But, it is difficult to understand through the speaker, the words are hard to understand. Maybe it's time to have it tuned. The service at the pickup window at the drive-thru, excellent. Great chicken and great service, I love it! read more

KFC - Fast Food Near Me - Vista, California

went thru drive-thru at dinner. chicken tenders were barely warm and hard. I think they were from lunch. not going back!

I called in to see if they had turkeys for thanksgiving and they DID. Ordered turkey and many sides Mac &cheese, coleslaw, rolls, 2 orders of gravy, mashed potatoes all for $110.....Let me tell you it was amazing easily fed 8 people. If you dont want to spend hours in the kitchen, buy this and you will have so much free time on your hands before Thanksgiving. The only blurp I can give them, was the turkey was to dry Also the employees were so accommodating, friendly, and in good spirits, considering they were working on Thanksgiving Remember people this is a fast food establishment, not the fanciest in the world but it made my day. Also before you leave the window, check your order....it will take less time than writing a bad review Cheryle read more

There's only 1 reason you come to KFC and that's for fried chicken. How you gonna tell me your out and need to cook some up in 10-15min....really? I was hesitant even coming here because of the negative reviews but now I see why. read more

It's almost like this location has a constant competition going on who can screw up an order the worst. It would probably be helpful if anyone working the drive-thru could understand customers, or speak back to them, but alas that's just not available at this location. Yall got rid of the extra shitty former employees who made you feel inconvenienced for coming there for food, but now it's just incompetent ppl who either don't listen to the ppl ordering or can't understand them enough to know what it is we are ordering. This is why Popeyes has lines out the door. read more

I stopped by at 10 a.m. on 2/2/23. They are supposed to be open at 10, but I was the only customer in the place. I had to wait 10 minutes before anyone bothered to notice me. I left, never to return. Crappy management to be sure. No wonder this place gets lousy reviews. Hopefully Popeyes will take over the franchise. They know customer service. Unfortunately, KFC customer service died with the Colonel........ read more

This place always messes up my order. They read me my whole order and when I told them the drinks should be large they said they couldn't change it. Thank you for wasting my time reading it back to me. Also never give honey and butter unless you remember to ask. read more

If I could do a negative 5 stars I would. It's the worst service I have ever received anywhere, in my whole entire life. I walked out without food and will never be back. The lady working there tonight should find another job away from public contact. She was actually throwing things around and yelling at me. It doesn't help that they are constantly changing the menu. I just bought a 20 piece hot wings a few weeks ago and now the rude lady told me I could only get a 6 piece and they didn't have plain hot wings. When she told me this I had to check and see what everybody wanted instead, so I stepped outside to make a call. When I came back in to give my updated order I was verbally attacked, she then turned and walked away. I tried to get help from the other person and was ignored. This is when I decided I would not spend a penny of my hard earned money and walked out. Unless you want to be yelled at and treated very rudely I suggest you pick another place to buy a fried chicken dinner. read more

Ok, I am really getting tired of not getting the correct order. I go there often and every other time the order is WRONG. They always repeat it back to me and yet when I drive off it's either the wrong pieces of chicken or is missing items. read more

Ordered 32.00 worth of chicken was missing 3 chicken littles from my order at the time I ordered I was the only one in line so I don't understand how that mixup happened. I realized I was missing food when I got all the way home to Temecula. CHECK YOUR ORDER GUYS read more

Avoid this place, been here a few times and I think it's right to say I won't be coming here EVER again. Found a gnarly looking spider in my drink!!! They were apologetic and gave me a refund. Regardless, I don't feel comfortable eating here anymore, don't want to take any changes and neither should you! read more

KFC - Not cool, found a spider in my drink! They gave a a refund but still GROSS! - Fast Food Near Me - Vista, California

Male employee didn't wash hands after using bathroom on 10/22/22. So freaking nasty! I canceled order and will never go back to this location. Sucks because its right by my house and i like KFC. read more

The food is basically the same that you can get at any KFC, so if you've had it at one place, you know what to expect. The service is pretty quick, with an average wait time of about 5 min. The side items I usually get are the mashed potatoes & gravy, the cole slaw, bbq beans, and sometimes the mac & cheese. The corn can taste pretty weird sometimes, as does the green beans. I prefer the original and grilled over the crispy chicken, I think they both have a better flavor to them. When getting the chicken, the part ratio varies. Sometimes you get more of one piece over the other, so your mileage may vary. I wouldn't go here expecting the worlds greatest food, but for something quick and not bad tasting, it's ok. read more

I just went through the drive thru and ordered a 8 pc meal... how the hell can they screw up such a simple meal. Chicken is dry and oily. I asked for 4 thighs and 4 drum sticks... I got breast, wings and 1 drum stick... WTF? No wonder KFC is closing they hire the dumbest people... I will never eat KFC again.. I read the reviews and sure enough... these people screw up every order .... I am beyond pissed off read more

I'm sure no one important ever reads these but can yall please GET BETTER LIDS FOR YOUR DRINKS. i was walking from kfc back to my house, which isnt very far. by the time i got home there was lemonade soaking my arms and the container i had the drinks in almost collapsed from the moisture. in fact, every single time ive gotten a drink here it leaks all over my fridge. its a super simple fix, otherwise this location is great. its clean, the employees are nice, the food is good. its just those drink lids read more

This has to be the worst fast-food Outlet I won't use the word restaurant that I have ever eaten in in Southern California. Not only was the food subpar but they after three times saying no cheese on the famous bull I drove all the way home for several traffic lights up a hill into my driveway opened it up and there was cheese on it my son had to drive back and drop it off. The young man look me right in the eyes when I asked him please don't put any cheese on this. KFC can't hold a candle to Popeyes if you want real fast food read more

Way to go to whichever manager decided to stop showing the orders before they got bagged, shorted twice in the last 2 weeks in the drive thru. Will make you open the bag and check every item from now on, I don't care how much it slows you down. Try caring about your jobs, see if that works? We want $15 an hour! Yeah, ok. read more

staff is always rude! food is cold and taste like it's been sitting for hours I do not write reviews very often, but it seems to be a reoccurring event at this location will not be going here anymore read more

Went in through the drive thru last night. Told the girl specifically that I wanted Mashed Potatos, Potato Wedges and Mac n Cheese. Instead, she insists on giving me and charging me for Greens. Had to drive back and ask for the order to be redone and as it turns out, only 11 pieces of chicken out of 12. Double oops. 1st star is there cause I need to give one according to yelp. The 2nd star is for the manager who was very polite and friendly throughout the entire exchange - counted the pieces and gave us our Wedges despite the receipt listing it as Greens. read more

I hadn't had KFC in about a year or so. My husband and I stopped by to eat since it's right by our house and I'm sorry that I can't remember exactly what we ordered.. The food was so greasy and disgusting that I actually got sick not to long after eating it. Easily the worst thing I've ever received from a fast food restaurant or any restaurant for that matter. Absolutely horrible. read more

I ordered the colonel sandwich with no pickles and when I took a bite I bit into pickles !!! Gross :( the other thing was that my order was wrong, I had asked for a side of baked beans along with my combo and my wedges were substituted for baked beans, but that could have been my fault for not being specific. read more

KFC is a decent place for fast food fried chicken. What I enjoy is that you can get a lot off food for a pretty low price. The chicken is good and most of the side items are ok. I thought it was nice that when at the drive up window the girl showed me each thing I ordered as she put it in the bag. read more

Thought as little treat I would pick up some KFC for the family. Placed order online for 6:15 pm pick up. Got there at 6:03, no at the register. Under staffed and It looked like the drive thru had some orders. Another was waiting that placed their order. It is now 6:10 pm and still no one acknowledge I was there. Again they are under staffed and looks to be busy. They finally acknowledge- yes to wait another 10 mins. They ask how they can help me, I say I am h ere to pick up an order. So they are moving quickly. As I wait, I see the manager hand a bag to the drive through attendant. He goes out to take an order to a waiting vehicle. He comes back in. I noticed he has touched the door and etc. with his gloves. He continues to attend the drive through orders. and touch food, when he did not change his gloves not even sanitized them. I was like hello what is the point of the gloves. Touching the top of drinks and bangs, money. So when I received my order, I calmly and quietly let the manager know, that he just came from outside he might want to change his gloves before continuing to handle food orders. She quickly said "Yeah okay okay, thank you" paying no mind to what I just said. I was like okay well you don't keep a clean environment, not coming back here. Well i get home and the one item i was wanting was not in the order. Another thing this store is known for, they do not complete your order correctly. I pay for a 4 pc I get 3 ...so on so on. I called back and finally answered the phone. She at first said I did not order that item. When I told her I did i am looking at my order now. She offered a free combo. I am like nope, I would like my money back for that item. I will not return to that establishment. So I have to call corporate to get my $2.00 and some change back. Yup... this time I will because I paid for an item i did not receive. (Yes this trip was a couple weeks ago-just realized I did not complete my review) read more
