Really mediocre fried chicken overall. It looks the part, but once you bite in, there's just no flavor inside. The seasoning doesn't penetrate, so it ends up tasting pretty bland unless you rely on the outside. Honestly, Jollibee does it better, more flavor, juicier, and actually satisfying. Big downside is you can't even order individual pieces here, which makes it harder to just try it out or build your own combo. Not terrible, but definitely not somewhere I'd go out of my way for. read more

I remember years ago when this was the 2nd gas station to offer Krispy Krunchy Chicken. Gas station chicken? You bet. Savory, tangy, and crunchy chicken. Delish. read more

3.5 STARS Date: Wednesday, April 2, 2025 Time: around 5:30pm Meal: Dinner *Hand-Breaded Chicken *Fries *Mashed Potatoes & Gravy *Honey Biscuits The bro in law was trying to get chicken from a new spot that just opened up. Turns out it was a zoo, so he settled for Krispy Krunchy Chicken. I've had it before and enjoyed it. I like the crispy breading. But the bro in law wasn't that impressed with KKC. He'd rather have chicken from a spot where you swap the middle K for an F. The chicken was good. Not quite as crispy and flavorful as I remember, but would fulfill a craving. I tried the biscuits. Waaay too sweet for me. But anyone that like cornbread or a mix of sweet and savory might enjoy this. Or make it into a dessert and top it with ice cream and / or whipped cream? I didn't try the mashed or fries, but they looked fine. Gas station chicken. Pretty good for what it is. REVIEW #3751 read more

I've grabbed fried chicken from a different location of Krispy Krunchy Chicken, but this was my first time visiting the location on San Felipe at Aborn. I ordered a 3 piece with biscuit and almost bought their special for 5 wings, but those were smaller, sauced wings, not the whole-sized wings. I ended up buying 2 whole wings in addition to my 3 pieces. As I remember from the other location, the crust was as the namesake described, crispy. It also had a slight kick of spiciness. I'm a wimp with delicate taste buds. ha ha! If you're in the area, don't let the fact that Krispy Krunchy Chicken is sold inside a gas station. It's worth buying. Try it! read more

Chicken, red beans & rice, biscuits and potato wedges were all great. Wonderful flavor! Will absolutely be going again.

Not going to lie - this review 5/5 is solely for the blue berry honey biscuit they give as part of the chicken combo. Considering the brand is sold out of gas stations, it's on par/relative to Popeyes chicken. This location was located in a Circle K gas station that was really clean and nice Chicken tenders 4/5 - they were juicy, moist and were a good size. The only wish I had was a thicker more crunchy skin. Blue berry biscuit 110000/5. In the moment when I first tried the biscuit I thought it was good. It was really moist, flakey, had a nice honey drizzle and a good crispy exterior but soft interior. I actually had a left over biscuit that I air fried at home and when I ate it as a snack it was like- one of the best snacks I've ever had I even considered coming back out to get another one the same day read more

Love this krispy krunchy chicken! I know some might feel weird about it coming from a gas station, but its worth a try. It has a clean taste with the meat halal and the biscuits they sell are tasty as well. Sometimes could be a little on the dry crispy side but so delicious when fresh. Service is always friendly and all locations and i will always be back. I never even noticed this place until a friend told me about it. I probably would have never considered before. Glad i discovered this place read more

This was a couple of months ago they had a special dark meat / potato wedges or tenders and potato wedges

No longer halal. Unfortunately didn't even share a sign to show the supplier changed. read more

The best fried chicken spot hands down. I always love ordering here and I love their biscuit. I prefer this over Popeyes and KFC

5 stars for the chicken and 5 for the service. It's in a convenient location and the site is clean and quick. The chicken is so delicious literally Krispy N Krunchy ! read more

Went looking for some fried chicken. This place came up with decent reviews. My fault that I didn't really read the reviews. The place is located in a gas station. The chicken come frozen and is heated in a convection oven(think giant air fryer). The lady took my order and placed it in a paper bag. By the time I got home the bag had grease stains.You can tell that they injected spices and other juices into the meat . There was orange coloring inside the thigh meat. Calling this fried chicken is like calling 7-11 nachos gourmet Mexican food. The only positive is it's a lot cheaper than KFC. Not worth even taking pictures. read more

Mashed potato: 3.5/5. It's not hot. You can eat right right away. Taste is ok. I can do without. Mixed pieces: 4/5. Cajun rocks! It's much tastier than Popeyes and KFC! The 8 piece mixed has 2 wings, 2 drums, 2 small breasts, and 2 big breasts. read more

Did I ever in my life think that I would crave fried chicken from a gas station? No, but here I am craving it as a write this review. I came across this place while driving by, and immediately judged it. Ew, gas station chicken, but I was oh so very wrong. My fellow Yelpers highly rated this place so I said ok, no one died, lemme try it out. It took a while cuz they made freshly fried chicken. It was still piping hot when I got it home. And soooo crunchy! The wedges were not great, the Mac & cheese were decent. But that fried goodness-get in my belly! read more

I was a little thrown off that this place was inside the gas station convenience store, but we ordered the 12 piece dark chicken and it was pretty good! It was seasoned well, very crispy, and even had a little bit of spice to it. I kind of wish the fries were actually fries instead of potato wedgies. The honey butter biscuits were also better than I expected. I thought the prices were pretty good for the chicken and spices compared to other chicken places. I knocked off a star because I wished they gave free sauces like other places do (at least ketchup/hot sauce). Also because the guy doing our order didn't have his mask on all the way and it made me feel a little weird about him getting our food. I can get over it but I know other people who are more cautious won't let that slide. read more

Let me start me start by saying that these potato wedges were so crunchy and delicious. They weren't no skinny wedges either they were perfect. The chicken was so crunchy and soft in the inside. I would've just preferred the chicken to have seasoning but it was spicy. read more

This location of Krispy Krunchy Chicken recently opened up and its sign piqued my interest since it's right at an intersection stoplight. A family meal of 12 pieces of mixed chicken, 6 piece chicken tenders, fries, and blueberry muffins came out to be roughly $28. Not a bad deal at all! The chicken pieces are large and full of crunch as well as flavor. The chicken is Cajun style - which I guess unfortunately is a bit too spicy for me personally. When biting into the chicken (both tenders and bone-in) you can see streaks of spice. I couldn't really tell if those streaks are hot sauce or Cayenne powder, but that stuff sure tingled my mouth. The rest of my family enjoyed the meal though without issues. If you couldn't tell, I'm pretty spicy-sensitive ;( If you like Cajun, you'll probably like the food. Anyway, the steak cut wedge fries are thick and well-seasoned. They pair perfectly with the honey mustard sauce. Overall, the price is very reasonable for the amount of food you get. I was definitely a bit nervous after reading someone's review of finding a worm in their food, but didn't see anything creepy crawly in our order fortunately. Hopefully healthy and safe food quality is consistent here! read more

The food has always been good but I just had the worst experience ever through DoorDash. Our dasher waited for 30 minutes and the restaurant refused to make our food. It's not like they were even closed. They just decided they didn't want to make it. Horrible experience will not be going back read more

I don't know how they do it but their chicken is always juicy with a crispy deep fry. I can't say anything positive or negative about the service. Wish they had more sides to order. They charge about $2 for extra sauce. That is ridiculous considering the sauce isn't much bigger than a couple packets of ketchup. read more

My first time eating this chicken it was amazing. The service was amazing and the ambience itself was good. It's usually little to no line cause it's right next to a gas station or inside one but for a price of good chicken. read more

KKC is pretty good fried chix, especially for chix sold out of a gas station. When you get it from this particular location, its always fresh & hot, with an ultra crisp crust, & juicy & tender interior. Service is sooo friendly, polite & quick. The negatives are that its quite salty - a lot of reviewers seem to think that the chicken is seasoned perfectly (are they referring only to the spices but excluding the salt?), but the salt level really gets to me. Its certainly saltier to me than KFC, Popeyes or Jollibee. Pro-tip - get the chix breast over dark or wings so there's a better ratio of super salty batter to meat. Also, enjoy it with a side of rice or potatoes to temper that saltiness & you should be ok! read more

Hi Habibi's, This place is halal! My mom loves this place. Its so funny because when we first pulled up she was not impressed at all. She likes your typical middle eastern halal food, rice with meat and some tabouleh/hummus. I think its hilarious that she cant stop talking about this place now. This place looks like your typical gas station type food but its a prime example of how you shouldn't judge a book by its cover. Seriously, sooooooo flavorful. idk how they marinate the chicken but its crazy on the inside. Not to mention the nice kkkkrispy outer layer that just explodes with a crunch when you bite in. I never get any of the sides. I believe I first tried this place in Tracy when I pulled up to a gas station and saw a halal sign. Since then they have been consistent and fresh each time. *Just a heads up: they don't have every part of the chicken at all times and employees are not always willing to fry it fresh for you. So if you only eat drumsticks or etc I would try and get there early. Save your chicken until five minutes before grub time and place it in your air fryer or oven. Delicious and tastes just as good! read more

Ordered the new Spicy Chicken Sandwich, wing and fries. The Chicken was well seasoned with just enough heat in the sandwich both items were Krispy Krunchy and the fries held up well to my preferred dipping sauce of ketchup . Definitely recommend read more

Would I say it's the best chicken I've ever had? No but it was good, seasoned well and crispy. Red beans and rice were good as well as the biscuits. Definitely beats out the other chicken places in the area. Service was fast. The only drawback you're at a gas station so no place to sit down and eat, of course it's handy if you are in need of gas. If I'm in that area again I will probably go there. read more

We ordered mixed, breast, thigh, leg and wing. The coating was crunch with a bit spice to it. The breast cooked perfectly, juicy inside and crunch outside. The other parts of chicken were also good. We had Mac and cheese, very delicious. The bisque is good on first day, it does not taste good pre-heat the next day. Will do it again. read more

I've been eyeing this place for awhile now and the stars aligned! Went with 3 piece chicken, red beans rice, and crispy wings. Chicken is tender and juicy, coating is crunchy, and flavor is just enough (could use a little more?) Red beans n rice - I still prefer Popeyes. Here, it's decent, nice spicy kick, but a little under spiced. All and all, great chicken , will come back. They take phone orders too! read more

I heard the hype. The hype was strong enough for me to venture over and give it a try. Maybe I had a bad batch. Maybe I came at a bad time. Or maybe I was just expecting something different. Chicken was not as moist as I wanted, and a bit under seasoned. With Popeyes, KFC and Jollibee in your neighborhood, you have to come on strong. I'll give it another try but you really have to wow me. read more

Inside the gas station convenience store. Best chicken slightly spicy it's just the best around and a slight step up from Popeyes chicken I love it. I stopped after going to one in my neighborhood while I was on this side of town! yum! Even after I just ate at a gourmet sushi bar!! read more

No more halal except wings and chicken strips. Common guys, fix it! That's why your sales are down

Fried chicken is so bad for me but I can't stray away from it! Word from my homies that this gas station fried chicken was really delicious so we just had to go out to grab a bucket. Right off the bat - pricing is a bit cheaper than usual. The chicken itself - super crispy, slightly oil. Surprisingly not too salty and very moist. Not dry at all even though we went later at night. From what I can describe - a good mixture of KFC and Popeyes. KFC got rid of their wedges and I happy to say that I found a replacement. Thickly cut salted soft starchy wedges with fried chicken! A beautiful meal! Will be spreading the word. read more

Mmmmm! I would say Krispy Krunchy Chicken is a crossing between Popeyes and Jollibee. Their chicken is super juicy and flavorful and totally not what I would expect to get from a gas station. Prices are super reasonable too! We were suppose to stop by for a snack and ended up ordered 10 pieces, fries and honey biscuits. I am a fan and will come back to try the other dishes. read more

I finally had a chance to get Krispy Krunchy chicken, and boy it really hit the spot! I am a big fan of all types of fried chicken, so when this place opened up close to my house, I knew I had to check it out and try it. I got there around 2 pm and thankfully there wasn't much of a line to order the food. They do have 2 separate cashiers now one for Valero gas & a separate one to order the chicken. Once I got there, there was one person ahead of me which was perfect because it gave me some time to decide what to order. I ended up ordering: *12 piece dark chicken (it was for the fam, don't judge): the chicken was crispy and juicy, and every bite I really enjoyed. I didn't feel it was overly oily, and I can confirm the chicken was crunchy! *Mashed potatoes: this was pretty standard, I think I have had more flavorful gravy before though *Fries: I got the fries, and these were okay - some of the pieces were really big and it wasnt as crispy when I got it. I plan to throw the leftovers in the airfryer which will hopefully change that! * honey butter biscuit: I really enjoyed these. This is unique to krispy krunchy chicken and I would give this a try if you are into biscuits. Overall, great experience, and would recommend others to give this place a shot! read more

Parts of their menu are NO LONGER HALAL. I called a couple of days ago just to make sure. The reason I'm giving it 4 stars is because when they were all Halal, the food was tasty, portions were good and service was excellent. Prices were quite competitive. All that being said, I can no longer give my business to them since their food, cooking oils, etc. looked to be mixed when I got there. read more

It's pretty good considering you buy it at the Valero gas station. I'm going to compare it to the KFC across the street. It's definitely tasty. Has a slight spiciness to it. It seems less greasy than the KFC. And eating next day leftovers are still good. The fries are the steak type. Mine were very undercooked. The honey biscuit was also better than KFC. And the price is cheaper. I'm definitely eating this again. read more

Halal food and local family-owned and operated business! I love fried chicken and I find myself coming back to buy the exact same thing (4 pcs chicken tenders, french fries and blueberry biscuits). I would say they have one of the best fried chicken and chicken tenders -even better than popeyes, carl's jr and kfc. They sell it inside the Circle K at the Valero. This place is pretty new and I was able to chat with one of the owners. She said that they didn't anticipate the high volume of customers so the wait times were pretty long and they ran out of a lot of items the first time I tried this place. I visited again for the 5th time yesterday and they have everything dialed-in now. Will come back and try the rest of their menu. I recommend the fried chicken, cajun tenders, fries, biscuits and cracklings. read more

THE best chicken. Period. DO NOT get the "churros". No flavor, not sweet enough, and a strange spicy finish. Not befitting of a place with otherwise great fried food. I got duped thinking it was as good as their chicken. They need to discontinue the churros. Bring back the apple pie. read more

My rating is based on their chicken sandwich only. The bread was not as good as the other reviews made it sound. The chicken itself was just ok. Perhaps their fried chicken is amazing, but the sando was mediocre. I much prefer a Popeyes sando read more

Just like the name says. The fried chicken is crispy and crunchy... and tastes good. It a little on the saltier side but I kind of like it like that. Better than Popeye's in my opinion. read more
