KFC

A joint Taco Bell and KFC! Needed to eat fast before class and I owed my bf money so ended up ordering around $ 23… Stopped myself before I ordered dessert!
We got a Big Crunch combo, cole slaw, small gravy, 5 hot wings, 2 beef taco combo with supreme fries… (Yes, almost everyday is cheat day)
Wings were not crunchy or hot
soft tacos were average
supreme fries were soggy but the gravy was delicious as a dip to all the bad quality food.
Service was good though. When you go just pray you get a freshly fried batch of fries and wings.

I’ve been coming to this location for almost 5 years now and have had really good customer service even though the place was run down either way it’s where I went for my taco bell craving which always ended in some sort of shame spiral. They recently switched most of the ridiculously overpriced KFC FRESH branded stuff out for regular kfc/​taco bell offerings. Honestly what can you expect from a kfc/​taco bell store aside from the same food and lackluster atmosphere however, it was remodeled recently almost like the new mcdonalds in the vicinity and I was impressed.
It has less comfortable seating than before and the flow is a bit unusual since it has you cutting across a main aisle where people are eating or where people put strollers. Their new commitment to reduce and eliminate artificial colors/​flavors really does have an impact on taste and quality. Also, the inclusion of a Pepsi mix fountain is a real treat, since I haven’t seen one since going to the states. In short, I like these new changes it can go a long way into rebuilding this most damaged of recognized brands.
For those complaining about pricing, get a $ 5.49 build your own box and you will always save a good deal of money

WHAT IS THE POINT OF THIS PLACE EVEN?
the amount of time it takes to put a combo together makes me wonder if it should still be labelled fast food. the prices certainly aren’t fast food prices — about double that of Popeyes and triple that of McDs for something less delicious. and they can’t even give you a main+side without a drink. last night, i was forced to take a soft drink — communism! ‘murica!
KFC — WHY D’YOU HAVE HEALTHY SH*T ON THE MENU?
is kfc going through a midlife crisis? who are these people that come into kfc and want a salad? if you are one of these people, you need to reconsider your life choices.

This place is a complete disaster service-​wise (can’t tell you about the food since I never got to try it). I waited 20 minutes to have my order taken and I was first in line! There had been many people ahead of me, but they took off after waiting for over 15 minutes to order. Once I made the order I was told to pay at the other end. So I go to pay and there was no one at the cash! So I waited another 10 minutes and then left. While waiting I was chatting with the herd of people waiting for their order and they told me that they had been waiting for their order for over 30 minutes.
Train your people!

Walked passed this new upgraded updated KFC and it looks great inside and out. They have a short list menu consider sandwiches at $ 5.99 and combos can stack $ 10+ for a meal. Can be expensive for fast food. The food is okay the waffle fries is what intrigued me to try which was really good I got the nacho mix flavor very good. The reason my low rating is there is only 20 seats here the price is a bit over the top. For fast good standards. There’s free WiFi here

What is KFC FRESH you ask?
I asked myself the same thing walking past this KFC location.
The signage was modern, bright green, and made me think of salad.
I decided to check it out.
…The inside was pretty nice!
However, when it came to ordering, the staff was very confused while trying figure out how to assemble a salad bowl.
— And the salad was loaded with mayo dressing.
It kind of grossed me out. (- a few stars).
However, they do serve hot wings! And I do love hot wings! (+1 star).
The fried chicken items are still good, but salad = incredible fail.

Not really a fan of KFC. Usually I find it greasy and overpriced. However this version of the restaurant (select/​fresh) is a huge improvement. The menu is more creative, the atmosphere updated, and I didn’t feel ripped off or greasy as I left. The computerized soda mixer was great (cherry mountain dew), spicy chicken sandwich and lattice cut fries were tasty. Beer for sale as well. As I left I felt that I would return here. Way better than say Tim Horton’s or McDonalds. Hope more pop up across the city.

So I’ve never really liked KFC because I felt their food was always way too greasy, and unappealing. KFC select seems to be like a fresh concept for them, serving a smaller menu in a fairly nicely laid out little place. Pricewise the combos come out to be on the pricier side for fast food. I’ve had all of their dishes at least once, with mixed results.
The Burgers — The Fresh Deluxe is usually what I or my girlfriend get, and they are great. For a chicken based burger the patty is not greasy, seasoned very nicely and overall many times more flavorful than a mcchicken or a whopper, for instance.
The Fries — I really enjoy the waffle fries; every time I get them at least, they are made fresh so they are really hot and very crispy. I don’t know what it is about them, they’re fun to eat and in my opinion the better tasting of the fast food chain sides.
The Desserts– I’ve had the cream balls, both strawberry and caramel. Essentially its putting vanilla soft ice cream with caramel/​strawberry sauce and other little things. It’s not bad, just not something I want to have alongside a fastfood meal. Maybe on its own on a hot day it could be nice.
The wraps — They’re not bad at all, compared to many burrito style foods I’ve had from cafeterias and fast food places, they are not bad. Nothing spectacular about them however.
The rice bowls — I find myself usually getting this for some reason. They do not taste fantastic, but they are quite filling. Taste wise I would still give the burgers the edge.
The drinks — They have those machines where you can mix and match different flavours of drinks. albeit to a lesser extent to somewhere like hero burger, but it was my first time actually seeing a machine like that having been away from a big city for 4 years haha, and I was pleasantly surpised.
All in all for a fast food place, KFC select is great. Prices a bit more expensive than the average fast food, but if you want the satisfaction of fastfood minus the real grimy and greasiness that most of them bring, KFC select is a great place near the bay/​bloor area.

KFC wanted to try something different. But KFC is comfort food. Who wants to eat at KFC when there is no fried chicken pieces or any familiar menu items at all? Utterly confounding and irritating.
The previous restaurant here was a KFC/​Taco Bell. It was sort of run down and set in the 80s décor and they didn’t even have full pieces of chicken but we came again and again and again because the staff were polite and friendly and the food was decent and cheap. Oh– and the fountain soda selection was incredible. They had Dr. Pepper! That place was great and it was nearly always full of customers. I miss the sweet staff members there — they were golden.
Fast forward to today where this miserably executed marketing manager’s wet dream /​disaster sits. This place will be closed and replaced with another Subway or yet another Starbucks or McDonalds within a year. I gave this place two chances. Both times the entire staff seemed to be under the effect of some sort of mental fugue and couldn’t feign interest in customers at all. I watched in horror as the transaction in front of me dragged on for what seemed like forever because everyone behind the counter was completely spaced out. I honestly wondered if they were under the effects of some sort of environmental sickness as a result of the reconstruction. But then again, that wouldn’t account for everyone poking on their phones behind the counter.
So, bad customer service as long as the food’s good, right? Wrong. Burgers were awful. So bad… no fries, no classic neon green coleslaw, just a bunch of psudeo-​upscale crap that I can only imagine the target market (office drones) turn their nose up at. Weird and tasteless waffle chips. Unremarkable overpriced dry burritos. Tiny portions. WTF moments all over the menu. Nothing resembled familiar food there, so why even bother with the KFC brand at all?
Like I said earlier, this is some marketing manager’s dream come true — to upscale KFC and make it an upscale «dining experience.» Fail, fail, miserable fail. This is a blight on the KFC brand. Run far, far away.
KFC is not cuisine, nor should it be.

Horrible customer service. The girl who was at the end to start the order was sitting with her back to me playing with her smart phone… Then looked at me as if I was rude for interrupting her.
I got the big boss burger which was cold presumably because they pre-​make so many and let them sit there.
I really like the concept, but every time I’ve come in there (3x now) the service has not been good.

I don’t know what people are thinking when they give a company like this more than 2 stars. People who like this place probably get full from drinking a cup of water. I never thought the day would come when a McDonalds burger would fill me up more than the garbage they call a chicken burger at this place. The chicken deluxe burger is a tiny piece which you can finish in one bite. For 4.99 plus tax, I’d rather head down to A&W or McDs. The taste is nothing amazing. Bread, chicken lettuce, and gasp… Their newest twist… A teaspoon of salsa! Pure garbage.

Give KFC another chance. This place is different than the rest. They truly have tried to reinvent themselves and I approve. I don’t even like fast food.
Do yourself a favour and go here. It’s how I imagine time travel to feel like. Something I once knew and cherished… Magically transformed into something new. Hesitant at first but gives it a try. Wonderfully surprised. Great Scott!
Dooooo it

I was excited to try this place. I’m not usually into KFC but their menu looked pretty appealing. My boyfriend and I got a burrito, the big boss sandwich, and a mango salad to take out. The staff at the counter were a bit disorganized inside. The burrito had no flavour except for the massive amount of sour cream, which made it unappetizing (I didn’t finish it and that’s unheard of for me!). The bun was falling apart on the sandwich and it seemed very bland too, like it was missing something. The best part of the meal was the salad, which was a decent size and had a nice spicy dressing, but the mango was a bit mushy. Overall we were pretty disappointed.

The food are healther than original kfc. They have some selections of salads like colesaw and lettuce. But they dont have macaroni and potato salad. The waffle fries are very good. But I expect more selections like a poutine fries or maybe onion rings. The side dish is the only thing that let me down. Whenever I order food from KFC select I dislike order their combo. The reason is becaus the side dishes. The burgers are good and the chicken is amazing. The drinks are good too. They just need good side dish.

Crispy strips and chicken burgers are good. Gave one of their burritos a try and didn’t like it very much, actually ended up throwing out over half of it. Waffle fries are good as well (when they’re fresh!) Overall a good attempt at something new for kfc but a bit on the pricey side. Worth a try if you’re in the area but nothing worth traveling for.

I really don’t know what I was expecting.
KFC seems to be trying to get out of the fast food category and more into a well-​beloved chipotle-​like aura (even with the décor, which is a blatant rip-​off).
I got a Fresh Deluxe chicken burger & a Mango Salad. My meal was around $ 15, and I am still sitting at work, hungry as ever.
The burger was more like a slider with the tiniest an thinnest piece of cold deep fried chicken you can imagine. It wasn’t even warm enough to melt any of the cheddar.
The mango salad was slopped together with «grilled chicken» that looked more like it had been steaming all day, waiting to get into my regretful stomach.
This was one of the worst lunches I’ve ever had in this area. Teaches me a lesson not to cheat on my usual family-​owned burger joints! Yuck!
P. S. I even saw two homeless people come in, look at the menu, and leave. They had the right idea!

Like Chipotle but slightly cheaper and more fried chicken.

KFC is trying something new. I’ve been missing Taco Bell at this location for cheap work lunch when I’m in a real hurry. I went to check this place out when a guy stopped by work with coupons to let us know they were open. I went for lunch and found it pretty chaotic (probably due to being freshly opened and new staff). You order at one end like Subway, they put together your food, then you pay. They have chicken fillet burgers, crispy strips, burritos, rice bowls, and salads. The sides are salad, waffle-​cut fries, and coleslaw. It’s really not so different from a normal KFC only no bone-​in chicken (which was always true for this location anyway). I got a double sandwich for like $ 4.99 and made it a combo for $ 3. I noticed last minute there are pickles on the sandwich and I have an irrational fear of pickles so I managed to stop them from being added. I should have known «special sauce» on the burger would be full of pickles as well, but it didn’t register and nobody mentioned it even after I told them no pickles. I got the waffle fries as the side and a pepsi cup for the drink. They have Pepsi’s rip-​off of the Coke machine where you pick your own drink and then flavors like lime or vanilla. Options are much more limited, though. No diet mountain dew… boooo… Got a normal diet pepsi. I used a coupon for a free cheesecake. It all cost about $ 10. They also give you a loyalty card, if you buy 11 combos you get a free main.
The bun was totally average. I watched the chicken come from the fryer fresh but it has no real crispness. The special sauce is the same nasty pickle-​tasting thousand island garbage that every other chain calls special sauce (good if you like that sort of thing, but I hate it). The waffle fries were ok. I got half left-​overs from the previous batch and half fresh. The fresh ones were crisp and salty and great. The older ones required a lot of chewing. The cheesecake was bad, but it was free Very airy, a little grainy, heavy on the artificial berry flavor. I’d say the food is average KFC fare. Don’t get too excited about it. I’ll go back to try the burrito and may update then.
