Here's what I've got to say abt KFC. sixgirlsonebathroom.com One night, it was a cold and windy night, we walked past the KFC on 14th Street & 2nd Avenue. As usual, we scoffed at the assumed-unhealthy ppl entering this 'restaurant' and looked inside to see WHO would succumb to the evil of fast food. Apparently four unbelievably hot Bedford_Ave_Bros... hipsters eat chicken plaid consumes fried arms and legs u guys r heathens wait, on second look you're totally bangable i forget i'm veg... buy chicken poppers sit next to u, pretending to eat this dead bird offer it to u say, "i'm not hungry but want to eat at my place?" we employ sweet sauce for some yum non-food fondling. finger lickin' good

Lines here are snaking between black airline-like strap fencing. Bathroom is a bit dirty, unisex, but at least the employees that come out have washed their hands. They have grilled fried chicken? Different. :P Not bad... but original is where it's at. :D

just when you think america couldnt possibly get any fracking nastier, the powers that be at KFC created the double down. slabs of bacon, the colonel's secret sauce, melted cheese. between two fried pieces of chicken filets. no stars for the misanthropic customer service folks who think they're doing YOU a favor by serving this crap to the public.

Once upon a time, there was a sad, lonely, drunk black princess wandering the streets of Gramercy. Why was she sad, you ask? Well the drunk princess was starving, as she had a serious case of the munchies, but at that ungodly time of the night, there was nothing open nearby that piqued her interest. As she walked along 14th street, sobbing and defeated, she came across a large building with it's lights on. The savory aroma of spices, antibiotics and hormones wafted through the air and she started to salivate at the mere thought of devouring one of the Colonel's perfectly juicy on the inside, crunchy on the outside chicken titties. She stood outside the entrance of this chicken castle for a while, trying to determine whether they were open or if she'd have to go home without her poultry fix. HARK! Was that another human she saw inside of this classy establishment feasting on messy chicken wangs and luke warm macaroni and cheese and doughy biscuits and sugary carbonated beverages? T'was, indeed! Elated, the princess rushed inside and rejoyced at the the fact that in mere miniutes, she'd be enjoying the best chicken titty of her life. She ordered an obscene amount of food, and without shame. The princess had come too far now to leave the chicken castle with just a 2 piece meal. When her 5 bags of food were finally handed to her, a single tear rolled down the princesses cheek and she dove into her potato wedges, unable to contain herself until she got to her apartment 5 blocks and 2 avenues away. The Princess skipped home that night, not only because she wanted to get some exercise in before consuming this 100,000 calorie meal, but because this chicken castle we know as Kentucky Fried Chicken had made her day before the sun had even said hello to the world. She, her chicken titty and her new found double chin all lived happily ever after. The end.

First off, let me say. If Einstien, Socrates, and Newton were put into a room and asked to create the perfect sandwich they could not come up with the Double Down. The double doen is gods gift to man. This sandwich was a game changer. Taco Bell claims they "Think outside the bun", well KFC thinks outside the bun LITERALLY! It's like they got together in a room and thought, what is the best part of the sandwich? The bit between the bread, right? well how about we make the entire sandwich the middle part!? no filler! Lets literally replace the bread with greasy fried chicken breasts! I will never forget my first, it was as If had died and gone to Kentucky Fried Heaven, the combination of cheese, grease and mechanicly separated chicken was delectable! I know KFC genetically engineers their chickens to have six legs and four wings, but if that's wrong i don't wan to be right! It just tastes so right! Overall I give this KFC a 4 out of 5 stars. I had to wait in line for 15 mins before i got my meal and the girl behind the counter forgot to give me hot sauce and gave me attitude when i asked the second time.

Lol yes. KFC. So neglected on a busy corner of 14th St. I walked in after talking with a buddy about how often we walk by without ever giving it the time of day. It was empty and rather unimpressive on the inside. The menu was full of food combinations clearly catered toward our obese youth. Buckets of fried chicken, potato wedges, cole slaw, biscuits, and soda. Clearly part of a balanced diet. Opted for a collection of wings, drumsticks, wedges and popcorn chicken. All were exactly as I expected and desired. Lots of sugary dipping sauces to accompany as well. It was as fried food should be. Greasy, hot and artery clogging. Thank you Colonel Sanders. Oh, and I prefer this KFC over even Baohaus nearby. That's how much I dislike the new Baohaus concept.

Came here on my way back home from Union Square shopping. It's a few blocks off Union Square, but totally walkable. The place was pretty empty that Saturday afternoon. My roommate had wanted KFC, so I decided to pick up a bucket and trek home with it all the way to the UES. The smell probably infuriated people, especially since the bus was crowded. Anyway, the place was empty, so I was up to order right away. I was on the phone with my roommate trying to decide what to get, so I kept apologizing to them that we were trying to finalize our order via phone. They were super patient and just waited while they served the one other customer in the place. The place is pretty clean. As I sat waiting for my big order, I just sat at the table and read the newspaper I was carrying around. The servers are pretty nice, understanding. The food came out pretty quickly as well. Definitely had a good experience here.

Food isn't that great, customer service is horrible! Co workers tell and curse at each other when there are children present. Ordered a meal the cashier said "order something else" I was very disappointed because I am a fan of KFC but never going to this one.

Score it. Four stars for The Colonel. Let me tell you how. First, to set the scene: - Birthday party to go to at Solas ( yelp.com/biz/f0QreVur1bL… , Zero Stars; don't believe the reviews). - Pre-gaming at friend's house. - Additional pre-gaming on the Second Avenue bus. We're all class. - "Ugh, this is taking too [expletive] long, let's get in a cab." - "9th Street and Second Avenue, sir! Thanks! You're awesome!" - (Casually, while at 14th Street stoplight) "I haven't had KFC in a while." - (All passengers, in unison) "SIR, WE'LL GET OFF HERE." As a New Yorker--be honest--when's the last time you delighted in the taste of KFC's farm-abused chicken parts? Understandable since it's easy to walk right past on the way to your favorite deli, your favorite halal stand, your favorite pizzeria. My advice: give a fresh chance to one of the darlings of everyone's youth/life in middle America. Each of the three of us chose a different menu item, so as to get a proper sampling of the various ways the chicken parts are prepared and served. One friend went with what lured us in: the new Triple Dip Strips. You get to pick three dips from a list of six in which to dip your perfectly golden chicken part strips. It's a lot like Pommes Frites, except mass produced and with fewer options. Nevertheless, phenomenal. Another friend went with the Mashed Potato Bowl. The only word that comes to my lips is heavenly. Detractors will argue against this assertion, no doubt, and contend that the very base of the dish is those just-add-water potato flakes. That may be true, but those are flakes of wonder, man; some kind of chemically engineered marvel. Top it off with shredded cheese that I expect might have been somehow modified to never spoil and stir in those mouth-watering, crispy chicken parts and you've got some serious food of the gods. I was probably the least adventurous on this particular outing and went with the Boneless Wings--Fiery Buffalo, natch. I like my spiciness, but my normal expectation for heat when going to this type of establishment is moderate at best. You know, they have to dial it down since a lot of people talk a big game, but are really pansies. NOT THE COLONEL. Six satisfying pieces of parts that sent me running back to the counter for a diet soda to extinguish the flames. All in all, a first rate experience. Or I guess it could've been the inebriation. ----------------------- Join me next time, when I'll offer my take on that shining beacon on the Mexican fast food hill, Taco Bell.

Have you been drinking ALL day? Have you realized that maybe you should have some sort of solid food? Maybe, you just don't like the free pizza at the Crocodile Lounge place? Well, this KFC is conveniently located next to many, many places you might have consumed many, many drinks, and thus beckons with its promise of fried chicken greasy goodness. Don't do it. Yes, I know it's KFC. I actually kind of like KFC. I used to go to that one near the W 4th subway that had something like 150 health code violations. I love the biscuits. I even like the fake mashed potatoes. So, really, I'm the last person to scoff at KFC or its many, many delights. All that being said: Don't do it. This KFC is just inexplicably bad. It's bad even when one is very drunk. Dry. Flavorless, except for that odd aftertaste, likely caused by oil (or whatever stuff is used for deep frying) that hasn't been changed since the Carter administration. If you're still craving fried chicken, stumble over to the Redhead. Yes, now you're rolling your eyes at the suggestion of getting fancy pants expensive fried chicken. If you are drunk enough to contemplate going to this KFC, you have likely spent enough on drinks that the extra $20 at Redhead (you're already drunk: just get a freaking seltzer!!) will be small change in the overall financial damage the evening has caused. They're open late. Your stomach will thank me.

This place is just another unfortunate victim to a worthless and horribly uneducated staff. I like KFC on rare occasions but would rather starve than have to deal with the cacophony of stupidity in this dump. This place belongs above 110th street. Colonel Sanders is rolling in his grave.

One time I was at the Kentucky Friend Chicken in the East Village eating a stacker for like the third time that month. Then this couple next to me started arguing about who took who to court for the first time. First, I sort of dealt with it. Then I was like, "Screw it, I'm taking my sandwich home to eat in my apartment." So I walked home with my KFC bag past all legitimate eateries feeling guilty that I live in NYC, yet eat KFC. I haven't been back since. Wouldn't mind trying that new grilled chicken though.

Clean restaurant. Line moves very fast. The only thing that sucks about this place is when you go there this lady keeps saying "Thank You for coming to my KFC" with a thick Indian accent. It gets a little annoying after a while but besides that everything else is great here.

And, lo, the heavens opened and the firey bush of the lord spoke to the Colonel and said "let thy people eat from the bounty of the lord for I bringeth tidings of biscuits and chicken." The Colonel, his mind still unclear, questioned the Lord on the presentation of said biscuits. "Doth thou not have a circular container of non microwave safe plastic? Cover with potatoes that are mashed and drown in the gravy whose color matches the Euphrates after a storm.' But still, the Colonel did not believe and wondered who would come for some a meal. The bush grew hotter and flames scorched the earth. "The young and well dressed, from Astoria, Inwood, and the Heights shall descend on your little abode and fill your halls with much rejoicing and your descendants shall inherit a lease until the Rats from below shutter you like your breathern. Make the service quick and do not hesitate in fulfilling their desires. Let them Eat and Be Merry' and the children descended from far distant lands and ate their fill and there was much rejoicing.

Kinda sad there aren't many KFCs anymore in the city (the ones on 34th st and 42nd st are closed down) so I had to go to the 14th street location. The place is fairly kept up to standards but I can see some people tend to loiter there for the television. When I crave for some kfc or wedges, I come here.

Rebecca R.
Disgusting - even after drinking. Stopped in with my girls for some wedges and chicken. Walked out with the dryest, grossest meal ever. Chicken strips were dry, biscuit was as hard as a rock (WTH?!) and wedges cold. My diet Pepsi tasted like flat syrup. Store was in need of a cleaning. Cashier was sweet but "Chris" the expediter was in a foul mood and should have considered taking the day off. Would not visit again.

I love KFC, but this is the WORST I've ever had! 2 months ago, down south, i had amazing KFC. Here, they serve dried, old crap! I've never had worse!~ And they use smaller chickens here. I've never seen such a small breast! The employees attitude sucks too. If you love KFC the way i do avoid this over priced, undersized dried up crap! Go to a better KFC! (Now I see all the bad reviews this franchise has! They are correct! AVOID THIS KFC!) KFC should revoke this franchise!

A place so nice, I ate there twice! I can't fault this place. Both times I ate there I received the correct order promptly and with friendly service. To be honest, if I worked there and had to deal with some of the jagoffs* that stumble through the door, I'd be a lot less patient. For being in a marginally seedy part of town, the place wasn't filthy. I give this place three wings up! _________________ it's a Pittsburgh thing, it's not obscene en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ja…

Two words: Outrageous, offensive. I asked for no bacon THREE TIMES, but they put it in anwyay. I gave these people a chance to make it right after I took a cab home, and what did they say? "We can't do that." Again, three times while I was waiting I asked them not to put bacon in my sandwich. Again, I took a cab home, and what did I find? Bacon! I called back. I said, pay for my cab ride to you, then back, or deliver the correct sandwich to me, then I won't write a bad review. They said no, we can't do that. Then, I said give me 10 sandwiches for making me come back in the middle of the night, but they said no, we can't do that. Go ahead, give us a bad review. They said they welcomed a bad Yelp review in fact. So what can I say? This place is DISRESPECTFUL, and has to regard for requests for no PORK/BACON.

I was in here Thursday around 6 P.M. looking for an early first dinner. I decided on the chicken pot pie $5 meal which came with a medium drink and a cookie. I unfortunately managed to spill the soda as it was pouring. The cookie was a chocolate chip cookie but soft and chewy. Tthe pot pie was as expected. Service was good and professional and no one got mad about he spilled soda.

Never again! I went to this KFC while walking my puppy for a quick solution to dinner. The cashier tells me that I can't be served because they don't allow animals. I knew I was taking a chance going in with my dog but before I could turn around and walk out, the cashier made an offensive comment along the lines of "Does he understand english? I know he hears me talking to him." To make a long story short, this location has very poor customer service. They are rude and don't seem very eager to help. I will not be eating here again!

Darien S.
DO NOT GO TO THIS ONE! Service is horrible. When I ordered two 5$ fill ups, the 2 piece drum&thigh and the chicken pot pie, the cashier lady asked me "mashed for both of them?". I was very confused because the chicken pot pie did not come with a side, so i asked if she was asking mashed potatoes for the 2 piece drum&thigh or the pot pie and she said both, so I said yes. Turns out that she messed up my order and I got 2 of the 2 piece meal. Not only did they get my order wrong, but when I got back to my apartment and was about to dig in, I found out that they didn't give me my cookies! Never coming back to this store.

There is always something wrong with their cash register or receipt printer. The last time I was here, the manager had to use a calculator. This time around, the cashier said "remember your number or else you won't get any food!" In addition, it seems that there's a really high turnover of staff. I've been here maybe three times in the past two years, and it's always a painstaking scene of training, tonight it was "hit this button here, press that button there... no... you did it wrong, let's start all over again..." Also, the employees aren't exactly what I'd ever consider professional, a muscular man came in and placed an order, as he was filling his soda, a male cashier said "I'd like to get on top of that," and a female food server said "mmm, I'd like to have that on top of me." And beware of homeless people sleeping in the bathroom! Oh, glorious KFC.

Its pretty sad when some of my better meals this week included fast food. This week, I ordered a mashed potato bowl and a small chicken meal for take out but decided to eat in for the bowl because it was so cold. The bowl was packed with yummy potatoes, gravy, corn and chicken. My only complaint is that this location does not have crispy chicken unless u want it spicy. Oh, and there are a few homeless people that come in and out of the location but the staff is nice and the place is clean so its ok. They even have a large flatscreen tv.

Haven't gone to KFC in years. Had my nephew with me this weekend and after an afternoon at Union Sq park, he was begging for KFC. I brought him to this KFC. There were two young women at the register. I was the only one on line so I went right up and they began to take my order. Despite my 9yr old nephew and I being right in front of them, one of the cashiers was complaining to the other about some personal situation, throwing the F word around like it didn't matter. So unprofessional and rude. Bon Qui Qui status. We got our food quickly and sat down. I didn't even get to finish my meal - the chicken tasted like it was fried in extremely old/dirty oil. While we were eating a homeless man came in wanting to use the restroom, but they locked the door on him so he began arguing with the staff. That lasted for about 15minutes. To top it off, I started to feel sick once we were on our way home. I think it was the food. No bueno.

This review is for the chicken littles. We were passing by and hungry after some drinks and wanted to try something new. Decor: Standard KFC, slightly dirty Service: Its KFC, don't expect much. Food: Chicken Little: - Think chicken finger, sandwiched in between two finger sized buns. It was small, bite sized. Pretty tasty. - In theory this would be great if served fresh, but ours was stale and just warm, the chicken was warm, dry and not crispy at all.

I ate the bones! KFC has always been a guilty pleasure. As a child of immigrant parents and a latchkey kid, KFC was one of the only "American" dining options available to me in my youth. Every time, my parents came home with that red and white tub, it would be a joyous occasion. To this day, I still hold KFC's coleslaw and mash potatoes as my gold standard for both dishes. And don't get me started on the wet naps. I hoarded KFC wet naps like they would be the currency of the post-apocalyptic future that I dreamed of. That being said, KFC has gone down in quality. Every time I go in recent years, the chain has failed me in quality. I came in to get the new boneless chicken and found that each piece I ate was inconsistent. Some pieces would be fresh, while others would be quite rubbery. You could visibly see the difference as the rubbery piece would be darker than the fresher pieces. Full disclosure, I still ate it. The service at this location is decent for a fast food joint, but I think I'll only come back to the chain when I'm drunk. If you ever see me here, feel free to tell me, "Go home Ed, you're drunk!" Because I probably am.

This location is small and a bit on the hood side but they serve spicy chicken. I haven't had that since my church going days as a kid! I was just there for that new bowl with the wedges and chicken tenders and I wanted to get something small so I ordered two biscuits. I asked if they had spicy chicken and she said yeah! Hell yeah man! Give me one. She said we have a two piece meal for $3. Hell yeah man! Give me that! Told her to take those biscuits off. I Paid $6 for a 2 piece meal with mashed potatoes and a biscuit with my chicken tenders bowl. They handed me my bag, it looked like I ordered a family sized meal. I got back to the office and saw two thighs and a drumstick. I didn't even finish that huge meal. I finished the drumstick, one tender, the mashed potatoes and the biscuit. I gave away the wedges because I don't like wedges and the other chicken tender to my co-worker. I ate a small portion of the thigh later in the day and I still have another thigh and the rest of the first one left. The chicken tenders are too bready. It is NOT crispy like the way they say it is in the commercial. Bastards... Also they didn't even give us dipping sauce for the tenders.

I usually swing by here late when I'm coming back home from out of town, so about three times a month. It's KFC. Everything is pretty standard. I like to get the Hot Wings, Tenders, or Popcorn Chicken and some mashed potatoes w/ gravy. I saw a special on tv awhile back about how Colonel Sanders didn't give a hoot about chicken... for him, it was all about the gravy. KFC was basically created around the gravy. And I love him for it. Love gravy. Oh, but service can be spotty. I'm a very, very calm person. It takes a lot to get me heated. One night, I walked out of their and my blood was boiling. I forget what happened, but the attitude of the person taking my order was way out of line. I'll never forget that. It was the last time I felt truly pissed off and was probably 4 or 5 months ago. That being said, normally it's just a fine ol' KFC. A-OK as long as that one chick who works there didn't get up on the wrong side of the bed.

They gave me the wrong order once. I asked for grilled and they gave me their original recipe. It would have been okay but I really hate their original recipe. And since it was a big order, I was not happy. I intended on getting the grilled and saving some for tomorrow. Semi crispy and crispy chicken doesn't store well. I ended up throwing it out. Just make sure your order is right before leaving. Food wise, it's KFC. It's everything you expect. :)

My son and I are looking for a quick meal in the village and KFC was just around the corner of where we were shopping. First the price is okay for a 10 pieces Sunday special but oh boy the service was terrible. 1 minus star because the two girls were talking and I had to wait for them to finish their conversation about another guy who owed one of the girl money for an iPod or something like that. Another star taken away because there are no AC today and the door was wide open and smoke from the kitchen has flown out to the dinning area. And finally, I took away 2 Stars because she didn't give me my cups fir my drinks and when I asked her for it, again she feels that she has to finish her conversation until she looks at me and response to my "Excuse me you forgot to give me the cups"! Then she had the nerve to hold out her hands and wait for me to reach over the counter and get those cups myself.

I gave this KFC a chance and it let me down.

Here's what I've got to say abt KFC. sixgirlsonebathroom.com One night, it was a cold and windy night, we walked past the KFC on 14th Street & 2nd Avenue. As usual, we scoffed at the assumed-unhealthy ppl entering this 'restaurant' and looked inside to see WHO would succumb to the evil of fast food. Apparently four unbelievably hot Bedford_Ave_Bros... hipsters eat chicken plaid consumes fried arms and legs u guys r heathens wait, on second look you're totally bangable i forget i'm veg... buy chicken poppers sit next to u, pretending to eat this dead bird offer it to u say, "i'm not hungry but want to eat at my place?" we employ sweet sauce for some yum non-food fondling. finger lickin' good

Lines here are snaking between black airline-like strap fencing. Bathroom is a bit dirty, unisex, but at least the employees that come out have washed their hands. They have grilled fried chicken? Different. :P Not bad... but original is where it's at. :D

- I used to love KFC but out of good conscience I can't eat their chicken any more. . . I've seen the videos and read the articles, and it's just. . . no (get Popeyes if you're craving) - recommend chicken bowl sans chicken *basically mashed potatoes, cor

just when you think america couldnt possibly get any fracking nastier, the powers that be at KFC created the double down. slabs of bacon, the colonel's secret sauce, melted cheese. between two fried pieces of chicken filets. no stars for the misanthropic customer service folks who think they're doing YOU a favor by serving this crap to the public.

Once upon a time, there was a sad, lonely, drunk black princess wandering the streets of Gramercy. Why was she sad, you ask? Well the drunk princess was starving, as she had a serious case of the munchies, but at that ungodly time of the night, there was nothing open nearby that piqued her interest. As she walked along 14th street, sobbing and defeated, she came across a large building with it's lights on. The savory aroma of spices, antibiotics and hormones wafted through the air and she started to salivate at the mere thought of devouring one of the Colonel's perfectly juicy on the inside, crunchy on the outside chicken titties. She stood outside the entrance of this chicken castle for a while, trying to determine whether they were open or if she'd have to go home without her poultry fix. HARK! Was that another human she saw inside of this classy establishment feasting on messy chicken wangs and luke warm macaroni and cheese and doughy biscuits and sugary carbonated beverages? T'was, indeed! Elated, the princess rushed inside and rejoyced at the the fact that in mere miniutes, she'd be enjoying the best chicken titty of her life. She ordered an obscene amount of food, and without shame. The princess had come too far now to leave the chicken castle with just a 2 piece meal. When her 5 bags of food were finally handed to her, a single tear rolled down the princesses cheek and she dove into her potato wedges, unable to contain herself until she got to her apartment 5 blocks and 2 avenues away. The Princess skipped home that night, not only because she wanted to get some exercise in before consuming this 100,000 calorie meal, but because this chicken castle we know as Kentucky Fried Chicken had made her day before the sun had even said hello to the world. She, her chicken titty and her new found double chin all lived happily ever after. The end.

First off, let me say. If Einstien, Socrates, and Newton were put into a room and asked to create the perfect sandwich they could not come up with the Double Down. The double doen is gods gift to man. This sandwich was a game changer. Taco Bell claims they "Think outside the bun", well KFC thinks outside the bun LITERALLY! It's like they got together in a room and thought, what is the best part of the sandwich? The bit between the bread, right? well how about we make the entire sandwich the middle part!? no filler! Lets literally replace the bread with greasy fried chicken breasts! I will never forget my first, it was as If had died and gone to Kentucky Fried Heaven, the combination of cheese, grease and mechanicly separated chicken was delectable! I know KFC genetically engineers their chickens to have six legs and four wings, but if that's wrong i don't wan to be right! It just tastes so right! Overall I give this KFC a 4 out of 5 stars. I had to wait in line for 15 mins before i got my meal and the girl behind the counter forgot to give me hot sauce and gave me attitude when i asked the second time.
(4)JacksonLee K.
The service is very FUCKING BAD and RUDE!!!! I order what I want n I paid already!!!! And they give me the wrong thing, then I try to tell them. But NO BODY CARE about ME!!! they r doing other thing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!What KIND of FUCKING SERVICE is this??????!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Lol yes. KFC. So neglected on a busy corner of 14th St. I walked in after talking with a buddy about how often we walk by without ever giving it the time of day. It was empty and rather unimpressive on the inside. The menu was full of food combinations clearly catered toward our obese youth. Buckets of fried chicken, potato wedges, cole slaw, biscuits, and soda. Clearly part of a balanced diet. Opted for a collection of wings, drumsticks, wedges and popcorn chicken. All were exactly as I expected and desired. Lots of sugary dipping sauces to accompany as well. It was as fried food should be. Greasy, hot and artery clogging. Thank you Colonel Sanders. Oh, and I prefer this KFC over even Baohaus nearby. That's how much I dislike the new Baohaus concept.

Came here on my way back home from Union Square shopping. It's a few blocks off Union Square, but totally walkable. The place was pretty empty that Saturday afternoon. My roommate had wanted KFC, so I decided to pick up a bucket and trek home with it all the way to the UES. The smell probably infuriated people, especially since the bus was crowded. Anyway, the place was empty, so I was up to order right away. I was on the phone with my roommate trying to decide what to get, so I kept apologizing to them that we were trying to finalize our order via phone. They were super patient and just waited while they served the one other customer in the place. The place is pretty clean. As I sat waiting for my big order, I just sat at the table and read the newspaper I was carrying around. The servers are pretty nice, understanding. The food came out pretty quickly as well. Definitely had a good experience here.
(3)Alexandr A.
Food isn't that great, customer service is horrible! Co workers tell and curse at each other when there are children present. Ordered a meal the cashier said "order something else" I was very disappointed because I am a fan of KFC but never going to this one.

Score it. Four stars for The Colonel. Let me tell you how. First, to set the scene: - Birthday party to go to at Solas ( yelp.com/biz/f0QreVur1bL… , Zero Stars; don't believe the reviews). - Pre-gaming at friend's house. - Additional pre-gaming on the Second Avenue bus. We're all class. - "Ugh, this is taking too [expletive] long, let's get in a cab." - "9th Street and Second Avenue, sir! Thanks! You're awesome!" - (Casually, while at 14th Street stoplight) "I haven't had KFC in a while." - (All passengers, in unison) "SIR, WE'LL GET OFF HERE." As a New Yorker--be honest--when's the last time you delighted in the taste of KFC's farm-abused chicken parts? Understandable since it's easy to walk right past on the way to your favorite deli, your favorite halal stand, your favorite pizzeria. My advice: give a fresh chance to one of the darlings of everyone's youth/life in middle America. Each of the three of us chose a different menu item, so as to get a proper sampling of the various ways the chicken parts are prepared and served. One friend went with what lured us in: the new Triple Dip Strips. You get to pick three dips from a list of six in which to dip your perfectly golden chicken part strips. It's a lot like Pommes Frites, except mass produced and with fewer options. Nevertheless, phenomenal. Another friend went with the Mashed Potato Bowl. The only word that comes to my lips is heavenly. Detractors will argue against this assertion, no doubt, and contend that the very base of the dish is those just-add-water potato flakes. That may be true, but those are flakes of wonder, man; some kind of chemically engineered marvel. Top it off with shredded cheese that I expect might have been somehow modified to never spoil and stir in those mouth-watering, crispy chicken parts and you've got some serious food of the gods. I was probably the least adventurous on this particular outing and went with the Boneless Wings--Fiery Buffalo, natch. I like my spiciness, but my normal expectation for heat when going to this type of establishment is moderate at best. You know, they have to dial it down since a lot of people talk a big game, but are really pansies. NOT THE COLONEL. Six satisfying pieces of parts that sent me running back to the counter for a diet soda to extinguish the flames. All in all, a first rate experience. Or I guess it could've been the inebriation. ----------------------- Join me next time, when I'll offer my take on that shining beacon on the Mexican fast food hill, Taco Bell.

Have you been drinking ALL day? Have you realized that maybe you should have some sort of solid food? Maybe, you just don't like the free pizza at the Crocodile Lounge place? Well, this KFC is conveniently located next to many, many places you might have consumed many, many drinks, and thus beckons with its promise of fried chicken greasy goodness. Don't do it. Yes, I know it's KFC. I actually kind of like KFC. I used to go to that one near the W 4th subway that had something like 150 health code violations. I love the biscuits. I even like the fake mashed potatoes. So, really, I'm the last person to scoff at KFC or its many, many delights. All that being said: Don't do it. This KFC is just inexplicably bad. It's bad even when one is very drunk. Dry. Flavorless, except for that odd aftertaste, likely caused by oil (or whatever stuff is used for deep frying) that hasn't been changed since the Carter administration. If you're still craving fried chicken, stumble over to the Redhead. Yes, now you're rolling your eyes at the suggestion of getting fancy pants expensive fried chicken. If you are drunk enough to contemplate going to this KFC, you have likely spent enough on drinks that the extra $20 at Redhead (you're already drunk: just get a freaking seltzer!!) will be small change in the overall financial damage the evening has caused. They're open late. Your stomach will thank me.
(2)Romano C.
This place is just another unfortunate victim to a worthless and horribly uneducated staff. I like KFC on rare occasions but would rather starve than have to deal with the cacophony of stupidity in this dump. This place belongs above 110th street. Colonel Sanders is rolling in his grave.
(1)Ryan M.
One time I was at the Kentucky Friend Chicken in the East Village eating a stacker for like the third time that month. Then this couple next to me started arguing about who took who to court for the first time. First, I sort of dealt with it. Then I was like, "Screw it, I'm taking my sandwich home to eat in my apartment." So I walked home with my KFC bag past all legitimate eateries feeling guilty that I live in NYC, yet eat KFC. I haven't been back since. Wouldn't mind trying that new grilled chicken though.
(3)Tahmidul I.
Clean restaurant. Line moves very fast. The only thing that sucks about this place is when you go there this lady keeps saying "Thank You for coming to my KFC" with a thick Indian accent. It gets a little annoying after a while but besides that everything else is great here.
(4)Marc A. S.
And, lo, the heavens opened and the firey bush of the lord spoke to the Colonel and said "let thy people eat from the bounty of the lord for I bringeth tidings of biscuits and chicken." The Colonel, his mind still unclear, questioned the Lord on the presentation of said biscuits. "Doth thou not have a circular container of non microwave safe plastic? Cover with potatoes that are mashed and drown in the gravy whose color matches the Euphrates after a storm.' But still, the Colonel did not believe and wondered who would come for some a meal. The bush grew hotter and flames scorched the earth. "The young and well dressed, from Astoria, Inwood, and the Heights shall descend on your little abode and fill your halls with much rejoicing and your descendants shall inherit a lease until the Rats from below shutter you like your breathern. Make the service quick and do not hesitate in fulfilling their desires. Let them Eat and Be Merry' and the children descended from far distant lands and ate their fill and there was much rejoicing.
(3)Jenny H.
Kinda sad there aren't many KFCs anymore in the city (the ones on 34th st and 42nd st are closed down) so I had to go to the 14th street location. The place is fairly kept up to standards but I can see some people tend to loiter there for the television. When I crave for some kfc or wedges, I come here.
(3)Rebecca R.
Disgusting - even after drinking. Stopped in with my girls for some wedges and chicken. Walked out with the dryest, grossest meal ever. Chicken strips were dry, biscuit was as hard as a rock (WTH?!) and wedges cold. My diet Pepsi tasted like flat syrup. Store was in need of a cleaning. Cashier was sweet but "Chris" the expediter was in a foul mood and should have considered taking the day off. Would not visit again.
(1)mark h.
I love KFC, but this is the WORST I've ever had! 2 months ago, down south, i had amazing KFC. Here, they serve dried, old crap! I've never had worse!~ And they use smaller chickens here. I've never seen such a small breast! The employees attitude sucks too. If you love KFC the way i do avoid this over priced, undersized dried up crap! Go to a better KFC! (Now I see all the bad reviews this franchise has! They are correct! AVOID THIS KFC!) KFC should revoke this franchise!
(1)Bill T.
A place so nice, I ate there twice! I can't fault this place. Both times I ate there I received the correct order promptly and with friendly service. To be honest, if I worked there and had to deal with some of the jagoffs* that stumble through the door, I'd be a lot less patient. For being in a marginally seedy part of town, the place wasn't filthy. I give this place three wings up! _________________ it's a Pittsburgh thing, it's not obscene en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ja…
(3)Robert A.
Two words: Outrageous, offensive. I asked for no bacon THREE TIMES, but they put it in anwyay. I gave these people a chance to make it right after I took a cab home, and what did they say? "We can't do that." Again, three times while I was waiting I asked them not to put bacon in my sandwich. Again, I took a cab home, and what did I find? Bacon! I called back. I said, pay for my cab ride to you, then back, or deliver the correct sandwich to me, then I won't write a bad review. They said no, we can't do that. Then, I said give me 10 sandwiches for making me come back in the middle of the night, but they said no, we can't do that. Go ahead, give us a bad review. They said they welcomed a bad Yelp review in fact. So what can I say? This place is DISRESPECTFUL, and has to regard for requests for no PORK/BACON.
(1)Suresh D.
I was in here Thursday around 6 P.M. looking for an early first dinner. I decided on the chicken pot pie $5 meal which came with a medium drink and a cookie. I unfortunately managed to spill the soda as it was pouring. The cookie was a chocolate chip cookie but soft and chewy. Tthe pot pie was as expected. Service was good and professional and no one got mad about he spilled soda.
(3)Brandon T.
Never again! I went to this KFC while walking my puppy for a quick solution to dinner. The cashier tells me that I can't be served because they don't allow animals. I knew I was taking a chance going in with my dog but before I could turn around and walk out, the cashier made an offensive comment along the lines of "Does he understand english? I know he hears me talking to him." To make a long story short, this location has very poor customer service. They are rude and don't seem very eager to help. I will not be eating here again!
(1)Darien S.
DO NOT GO TO THIS ONE! Service is horrible. When I ordered two 5$ fill ups, the 2 piece drum&thigh and the chicken pot pie, the cashier lady asked me "mashed for both of them?". I was very confused because the chicken pot pie did not come with a side, so i asked if she was asking mashed potatoes for the 2 piece drum&thigh or the pot pie and she said both, so I said yes. Turns out that she messed up my order and I got 2 of the 2 piece meal. Not only did they get my order wrong, but when I got back to my apartment and was about to dig in, I found out that they didn't give me my cookies! Never coming back to this store.
(1)David L.
There is always something wrong with their cash register or receipt printer. The last time I was here, the manager had to use a calculator. This time around, the cashier said "remember your number or else you won't get any food!" In addition, it seems that there's a really high turnover of staff. I've been here maybe three times in the past two years, and it's always a painstaking scene of training, tonight it was "hit this button here, press that button there... no... you did it wrong, let's start all over again..." Also, the employees aren't exactly what I'd ever consider professional, a muscular man came in and placed an order, as he was filling his soda, a male cashier said "I'd like to get on top of that," and a female food server said "mmm, I'd like to have that on top of me." And beware of homeless people sleeping in the bathroom! Oh, glorious KFC.
(2)Kenneth T.
The chicken is good but the location is dirty and constantly has homeless people hanging out here throughout the day and especially at night. The staff is decent but still needs better quality staff.
(2)Claudia D.
Its pretty sad when some of my better meals this week included fast food. This week, I ordered a mashed potato bowl and a small chicken meal for take out but decided to eat in for the bowl because it was so cold. The bowl was packed with yummy potatoes, gravy, corn and chicken. My only complaint is that this location does not have crispy chicken unless u want it spicy. Oh, and there are a few homeless people that come in and out of the location but the staff is nice and the place is clean so its ok. They even have a large flatscreen tv.
(4)Vanna V.
Haven't gone to KFC in years. Had my nephew with me this weekend and after an afternoon at Union Sq park, he was begging for KFC. I brought him to this KFC. There were two young women at the register. I was the only one on line so I went right up and they began to take my order. Despite my 9yr old nephew and I being right in front of them, one of the cashiers was complaining to the other about some personal situation, throwing the F word around like it didn't matter. So unprofessional and rude. Bon Qui Qui status. We got our food quickly and sat down. I didn't even get to finish my meal - the chicken tasted like it was fried in extremely old/dirty oil. While we were eating a homeless man came in wanting to use the restroom, but they locked the door on him so he began arguing with the staff. That lasted for about 15minutes. To top it off, I started to feel sick once we were on our way home. I think it was the food. No bueno.
(1)Kenny C.
This review is for the chicken littles. We were passing by and hungry after some drinks and wanted to try something new. Decor: Standard KFC, slightly dirty Service: Its KFC, don't expect much. Food: Chicken Little: - Think chicken finger, sandwiched in between two finger sized buns. It was small, bite sized. Pretty tasty. - In theory this would be great if served fresh, but ours was stale and just warm, the chicken was warm, dry and not crispy at all.
(2)Ed L.
I ate the bones! KFC has always been a guilty pleasure. As a child of immigrant parents and a latchkey kid, KFC was one of the only "American" dining options available to me in my youth. Every time, my parents came home with that red and white tub, it would be a joyous occasion. To this day, I still hold KFC's coleslaw and mash potatoes as my gold standard for both dishes. And don't get me started on the wet naps. I hoarded KFC wet naps like they would be the currency of the post-apocalyptic future that I dreamed of. That being said, KFC has gone down in quality. Every time I go in recent years, the chain has failed me in quality. I came in to get the new boneless chicken and found that each piece I ate was inconsistent. Some pieces would be fresh, while others would be quite rubbery. You could visibly see the difference as the rubbery piece would be darker than the fresher pieces. Full disclosure, I still ate it. The service at this location is decent for a fast food joint, but I think I'll only come back to the chain when I'm drunk. If you ever see me here, feel free to tell me, "Go home Ed, you're drunk!" Because I probably am.
(2)Edward L.
This place serves green chicken, i.e. chicken with nasty green chunks inside it. SO gross.
(1)Melody N.
It's a KFC. Food is franchised. Service is not and it sucks here.
(1)Amira A.
This location is small and a bit on the hood side but they serve spicy chicken. I haven't had that since my church going days as a kid! I was just there for that new bowl with the wedges and chicken tenders and I wanted to get something small so I ordered two biscuits. I asked if they had spicy chicken and she said yeah! Hell yeah man! Give me one. She said we have a two piece meal for $3. Hell yeah man! Give me that! Told her to take those biscuits off. I Paid $6 for a 2 piece meal with mashed potatoes and a biscuit with my chicken tenders bowl. They handed me my bag, it looked like I ordered a family sized meal. I got back to the office and saw two thighs and a drumstick. I didn't even finish that huge meal. I finished the drumstick, one tender, the mashed potatoes and the biscuit. I gave away the wedges because I don't like wedges and the other chicken tender to my co-worker. I ate a small portion of the thigh later in the day and I still have another thigh and the rest of the first one left. The chicken tenders are too bready. It is NOT crispy like the way they say it is in the commercial. Bastards... Also they didn't even give us dipping sauce for the tenders.
(4)Manny M.
I usually swing by here late when I'm coming back home from out of town, so about three times a month. It's KFC. Everything is pretty standard. I like to get the Hot Wings, Tenders, or Popcorn Chicken and some mashed potatoes w/ gravy. I saw a special on tv awhile back about how Colonel Sanders didn't give a hoot about chicken... for him, it was all about the gravy. KFC was basically created around the gravy. And I love him for it. Love gravy. Oh, but service can be spotty. I'm a very, very calm person. It takes a lot to get me heated. One night, I walked out of their and my blood was boiling. I forget what happened, but the attitude of the person taking my order was way out of line. I'll never forget that. It was the last time I felt truly pissed off and was probably 4 or 5 months ago. That being said, normally it's just a fine ol' KFC. A-OK as long as that one chick who works there didn't get up on the wrong side of the bed.
(3)Laura P.
They gave me the wrong order once. I asked for grilled and they gave me their original recipe. It would have been okay but I really hate their original recipe. And since it was a big order, I was not happy. I intended on getting the grilled and saving some for tomorrow. Semi crispy and crispy chicken doesn't store well. I ended up throwing it out. Just make sure your order is right before leaving. Food wise, it's KFC. It's everything you expect. :)
(3)Rossie P.
Service is the worse at this place. Cashiers are nasty and don't give the customers the correct orders, they give whatever they want to give. There's no manager managing these beasts, especially the cashier named Gwen. A pure BEAST!!! Get it together people!
(1)Mya C.
My son and I are looking for a quick meal in the village and KFC was just around the corner of where we were shopping. First the price is okay for a 10 pieces Sunday special but oh boy the service was terrible. 1 minus star because the two girls were talking and I had to wait for them to finish their conversation about another guy who owed one of the girl money for an iPod or something like that. Another star taken away because there are no AC today and the door was wide open and smoke from the kitchen has flown out to the dinning area. And finally, I took away 2 Stars because she didn't give me my cups fir my drinks and when I asked her for it, again she feels that she has to finish her conversation until she looks at me and response to my "Excuse me you forgot to give me the cups"! Then she had the nerve to hold out her hands and wait for me to reach over the counter and get those cups myself.
