KFC — Restaurant in Tyler

For the store: This store is fast, courteous and economical. I've placed outlandishly large orders there before (like 40 chicken wings) and they've got it done and delivered in the space on average of 10 minutes along with my Dr Pepper. For the whole company: There's nothing like a good chicken or good chicken. That secret KFC recipe always has been, is and always will be the unmatched classic. I'm 99% of the opinion that the people at home saying "I matched it!" or "I copied it!......." haven't. Also extra crispy fried chicken from other chicken companies is excellent and I'd buy it in a second and this is not meant as any kind of effront to anybody so please don't take it that way -BUT- there's just something about those KFC ingredients together as a whole. I don't know that the guy or gal who came up with that particular recipe for KFC chicken on that fateful day in the 40s 50s or 60s knew exactly how big and world-renowned this particular chicken would be. It just wouldn't be the same with an addition or subtraction to the proportions or a change of ingredients. They're like the players in the original cast of Saturday Night Live... The particular way they come together and complement the whole production and each other at the same time is one-in-a-billion unique and instantly recognizable the world over and ONE ALTERATION... would throw off the whole darn thing. KFC..........

Update as of 9/18/23:

I've increased my star rating by one star based on my last visit. Food was good, my order was correct, dining area was clean and the service was friendly. I give this location another visit before deleting my previous review. Keep up the good work.

O KFC, thy name doth ring true, For thou art a place of fried chicken and despair.

I have come to thee many times, Seeking a delicious meal, But each time I am disappointed.

Thy menu is always out of items, And thy tables are always greasy. The staff is rude and unhelpful, And the food is mediocre at best.

I have given thee many chances, But I have finally given up. I will never go to thee again, For thou art a place of misery.

Farewell, KFC, And may thy reign of terror soon come to an end.

Alas, I doth despair, For I have no other place to go for fried chicken. But I will not give up hope, For I know that there must be a better KFC out there somewhere.

Until then, I will continue to eat my sorrows away, With a bucket of greasy chicken from thy foul establishment.

A plague upon thee, KFC, And may thy tables...

Wouldn’t allow us in the restaurant to pick up an online order. Concerned, I asked if they were ok. She responded with yes just two workers today. With only two workers one stands at the door and says can’t come in, I’d think there would be other things she could do if that were the case … Well ok , how do you prefer I get my order. “Just pull around to the window and we will have it bagged up for you” Did so, arrived at window “you didn’t stop at the box and say you were here you need to pull forward” it wasn’t so much the situation it was her attitude for following her instructions. Food was average. I wouldn’t eat there by choice it was a work office order. Elderly lady barely able to walk had the door opened and closed on her as well. But then some were able to go in and order. It made no sense as I sat and waited and watched. Terrible service. I get no one wants to work but kindness goes a long way every customer deserves kindness. Bothered me enough to...
