KFC — Restaurant in San Leandro

Reviewed Dec 2020.

KFC wedges, how I will miss you. Long gone off the menu since October 2020. They switch them for fries.. nothing original there. Not sure and can't confirm if this location is private owned or not. There is a KFC in Nework that doesnt do BBQ anything. That's neither here or there.

Con: The BBQ wing at this location is not the same, the flavor is not the same as the original, it's a little sweater with a hint of tangerine tanginess to it. I love love the original and the smell was wonderful.. changes made here is the reason why I only gave the 3 stars is for flavor.

Pro: If you love anything else then this place is great. The wings were big and juicy for texture. Made to order and hot which is nice. The employees were nice and helpful with my order, gloves and mask 24/7. Drive-thru only of course. Located on a corner lot with 2 driveways. Average waiting time, at most 4 cars. So support the locals! Fastfood can be a local I think..

Covid Technical details for the particular ones.., they do take your ccard to charge. Some places brings out the charging machine to be touchless. Only 1 window operational, same person you pay with will serve your...

I would rate the meal if I had gotten one. I have gone twice to this KFC for lunch at 10:15 ( sign on the door says open at 10:00) and received no service. The first time the door was locked, but the manager let me in. However I stood in line for 15 minutes while he did something tedious with another customer. No acknowledge, apology, or I'll be right with you. I left since I only had another 20 minutes left of my lunch. Gave them another try about a month later, only this time the door was locked and 2 workers was inside. One sweeping the other sitting. I motioned that the door was locked and one of them flashed their hands to say not till 10:00. I then said, it's 10:15. They looked at each other, looked back at me and shrugged their shoulders as to say.. oh well, to bad. 🙁 That is it for me. I don't need lunch often, but when I do, I would like to go to a place that actually opens at the time that is posted...

They have definitely changed! Recently everytime I come here thru the drive-thru window, the chicken has been hard, along with the French fries, and taste like everything is from the day before and I never find out until I'm almost on the freeway home. Well today I walked in and ordered a $20 dollar fill up box, and let me tell you nothings changed! The biscuits were hard, and dry not moist like they normally are, the Nuggets looked like the scrapings from the oil, hard and dry!😖. And the chicken (original) extra hard and dark very overly cooked looking! I should leave, but no, they need to know their food is below the mark these days! Sad to say, but it looks like my days of eating out is coming to a end. Almost $50 dollars for the food, nope they need to do better. And this is what we get for them getting a increase in pay, with absolutely no smiles on their faces. Looks like I'm going to have...
