    My sister took us where while we were visiting from TX. The staff here are AMAZING!!! So friendly and helpful. They brought our order to the table for us while my sister got the kids situated. She then helped me fill our water cups and also brought them over for me. The food was good. We got 12pc chicken strips meal which came with 3 sides and biscuits. Our sides were potato wedges, mashed potatoes with gravy and coleslaw. The chicken was good. The slaw and the mashed potatoes & gravy were good as well. The wedges had a tasty seasoning on them but they were completely soft and soggy. (Would have been better hot and crispy). Price was a little steep... $30.99 for the 12-piece meal. $33 and change with tax. Maybe because we don't eat out much... had a little bit of "sticker shock."

    Found a tree branch piece in my green beans

    My wife bought me Lee's lunch and I was eating the green beans and they have put a piece of stick into my green beans. I am so upset I would not recommend at all they have gone downhill and they don't give a shit I hope I don't get food poisoning from this. It was a piece of stick off of a tree no joke.

    3 piece meal.

    Decided to finally try this place after seeing the restaurants all over St. Louis. I asked Missouri natives and all gave mixed reviews so here is mine. Chicken was good but not great and the side dishes were the usual carb choices. Nothing really stood out to me. The price was excellent so there's that but not much else to rave about here. Try it out if your feeling spontaneous. Enjoy!

    This is such a nice place for a chicken dinner. Good flavor chicken in every kind they have. Great sides available.

    Spot we found on our way to St. Louis. Pretty good

    Excellent value and quality chicken during the 11-3 lunch special. Good mashed potatoes, but the macaroni and cheese is only average.

    Where do I start... my daughter, who is a friggin angel, loves KFC. So, when I told her, "Hey…read morehoney, guess what, daddy got his stimmy money in, courtesy of good ol' Uncle Sam! We have $1700 to burn, so put the ramen back in the cabinet. We're going to splurge tonight!" You can imagine the look of pure ecstasy that washed across her face. However, we pull up to the drive-through. Immediately we are met by a speaker that was faulty. Either the speaker didn't work, or the headset didn't work that the employee was wearing, or the employee was intentionally whispering sweet nothings into my ear. Anyways, we then played this fun game of me ordering a buffalo crispy chicken sandwich, without pickles or mayonnaise, her mumbling something back that was unintelligible, me repeating my order louder, and us doing this cycle several times... that was so fun! After I just assume that we have communicated in some way, I decided to move on to the next portion of this fun adventure. I pulled forward to the window. I greet the worker with a big,'"Good evening!" I mean I'm excited, I have 17 crisp, brand new Benjamin Franklins. That's more money than some see in their whole lifetime, and we got it all at once! The employee responds so sweetly, No wait, I mean curtly- "16.80" That's it. No, "Hello." No, "Howdy." No, "Welcome to KFC, it's a pleasure to serve you." None of that, just the facts- "16.80" This woman is here for business, and I respect that. I hand her my card. The window then opens up twice. Once to hand us our drinks. Once to hand us our bag of food. Then after several moments of silence, we get our card back. No, talking during these exchanges. Their actions spoke for their words. The work ethic, I guess, was supposed to be all the pleasantries needed. We leave and oh boy, we are so excited! We will eat like lower-middle class royalty tonight. Except... no. We open our food. Now, this is heartbreaking, even now, as I type this review. On the menu, the crispy chicken sandwich looks so full. So juicy. May I say, so majestic. If the Colonel was alive, God bless his soul, he'd see the menu and say, "Now that's finger licking good!" Oh man I was excited. To much chagrin, I opened the wrapper and found a bun that was literally rock hard on the bottom. The chicken was dry and had clearly that been sitting in the warmer for hours. Now, I can't prove that, but you show me a KFC worker who says that was a fresh piece of chicken, and I'll show you a darn lair. And, the buffalo sauce was sprinkled on like the chef was practicing his infant baptism techniques for priest school. I tried to eat it, but all I could taste was hard bread, dry old chicken, and just a taste of buffalo sauce. My daughter's meal was average. Not good, not bad. But, the moment was ruined. It was "finger licking bad." We didn't see the tragedy that they called food, until we arrived home. Too late to go back. My heart was sunk. My daughter now sees a broken man for a father. What's on the menu for this hollow of a shell she calls 'daddy?" Regret... and Ramen. I pulled those noodles out and got off the high horse that I had ascended too. I learned a lot this evening, money changes people. My expectations were raised too high. I'm not sure how the 1 percenters find any happiness in this life. I'm quick to forgive, so I assume I'll be back. But, next time I will lower expectations, and then hope and pray that we get a meal that represent the Colonel well.

    This place needs to be shut down, like yesterday. Why are we serving customers old food and rock…read morehard bread? Health inspectors also need to pay a visit. Absolutely disgusting establishment and poor reflection on the company. Do not waste your money. Disgusting employees as well.
