    I didn't bring my lunch and saw this place so I went through the drive thru. They took my order and told me to drive up front and they would bring me my order in a second. Waited a couple of minutes and the girl brought me my order. I got the crunchy chicken taco. They were pretty good. I had two of them. Meat was nice and juicy. I also got the 8 piece chicken thigh and leg. I really like their chicken. It was yummy and cooked perfectly. A nice lunch. I will try them again when i have the chance.

    I ordered my food through GrubHub. The food arrived quickly and at the perfect temperature. I ordered a eight piece leg and thigh with the side of macaroni cheese and a salad. All the food arrived at the perfect temperature... The chicken was still very hot and the Mac & cheese was almost too hot to eat it once and the salad was very well chilled along with the extra fiery hot sauce I requested.... I'd had just moved from Florida. The only thing they had to compare to El Pollo Loco was a chain call Pollo Tropical..It was mediocre at best.. The order of the legs and thighs were of a agreeable size as far as portions would go. They were cooked thoroughly and tasted very good. The best thing of it was the mac & cheese very creamy lots of Mac lot creamy cheese. The only thing that I could say bad about it and this is subject to each individual was I did find it a tad bit salty... I also got a burrito for $4.99 it was with rice and pinto beans. I am a carnivore and I would have preferred either pork or steak but since you don't offer that there it is what it is..... I also received approximately eight flour tortillas and they are very warm and very good. The other item was their a fiery sauce chilled very much and did not taste of too much vinegar,fiery but they could've been a little bit hotter for my taste bud.. The salad was a nice portion and chilled to the proper temperature I enjoyed it very much. I was surprised as to how good the food tasted and how quickly I got it so I am inclined to definitely try this place again.

    So. . .maybe I have too high of expectations for fast food. Maybe because I'm a spending my hard earned money and I think a company's best sHould be put forward when they are taking that hard earned money. The staff has always been very nice whenever I've come to this location. If there's ever been a problem with an order, it's been met with a cheerful willingness to help. That's great. But with that, the quality of food should accompany that. With that said, my husband and I wanted to try the new wings they have. So we were excited when went through the drive thru and got our bag because the smell was wonderful. Then we get home, open our box and see what looks overcooked/burned chicken. Trying to give it the benefit of the doubt, we decided to eat them anyway. They were bad but they weren't all that good. So I think there needs to be an improvement with these products. And I know that food never truly looks the same as it's advertised but I believe it should be close and these weren't. Think I'll just stick with their nachos!!

    Had yet, another issue with this location! Long story short. Placed an order, recieved a pick up time. Arrived. They weren't open for another 45 mins. They never once answered the phone. Yes, I saw them there inside. The website said they were open. Multiple sites, including theirs where I placed the order said they were open. My money was taken. Had to wait 45 mins. Was late returning to work. Note on door says pick up starts at 1. Drive opens at 11.

    This place is filthy to say the least.. Floors are sticky and nasty, owner or manager needs to read this and clean up this joint.

    Got a chicken salad that was amazing! The chicken here is the best around, cooked over an open grill and so tasty. Friendly staff too.

    Just discovered this spot and OMGEE!!! everyone needs to know about it. The chicken here is…read moreseriously some of the best I've had !!perfectly cooked, super flavorful, and just overall amazing. Shout out to the guy at the drive-thru for the top-tier customer service. Friendly, upbeat, and made the whole experience even better. Also, the restaurant itself is really cool. The outside catches your attention right away and the inside has a fun vibe that makes it stand out. If you love great chicken, do yourself a favor and check this place out. Definitely coming back!

    I've heard a lot of mixed reviews so I had to check it out! The service was really good. The kid at…read morethe counter knew it was my first time and explained some popular items he recommended. So I ordered some tenders, fries, buffalo fries and mozzarella sticks. It was decent. The tenders are surprisingly spicy even for mild! I was kinda shocked how much seasoning it had... a little too much for me. I do appreciate the quality of the chicken as it was "real" chicken, not that fake meat lol. The mozzarella sticks also just ok... too much seasoning but it had a fun cheese pull. The only item I loved was the buffalo fries! YUM. Seriously, Buffalo fries WITH mac n cheese on top!!!!! So good! Inside had a cool vibe, love the art on the walls. It was a little dirty but they were very busy so i understand. It was just ok.. not my first spot for a chicken spot but I didn't hate it either. Next time I may just order a large buffalo fry! Only thing missing on that would be blue cheese. But overall worth a try at least, but keep in mind the "hot chicken " when ordering your spice level.

    Krispy Krunchy Chicken makes delicious and juicy hand-breaded, mild Cajun-spiced fried chicken…read more When you bite into the chicken, you can see traces of a red hot sauce along the edge. That's different! Chicken is Halal. I ordered the 4 piece Krispy Krunchy combo that comes with 1 side and a Honey Biscuit. I didn't try the honey biscuit, which looked like a mini muffin top. By 7 PM on a Thursday, two sides had sadly run out: 1) Mashed Potatoes & Gravy and 2) Red Beans & Rice. The remaining choices were Mac N Cheese, French Fries, and Jambalaya. Mac and Cheese was unimpressive. Strange color and coagulating cheese, so it looked unappetizing. Neither hot nor cold. It probably had been sitting in the food warmer too long. Edible, but not worth repeating. Maybe skip the sides? Service: Fast because not many were there. Fried chicken was already made inside glass cases behind the counter. Ambiance: None? No tables. No dine-in. No outdoor dining. You're inside Circle D Food Store, a gas station convenience store and smoke shop on a frontage road by Interstate 80. There are lots of bongs for sale! I guess fried chicken is good when you have the munchies. Just stick with the fried chicken pieces to be delighted. I plan to try another Krispy Krunchy Chicken location. Thanks to the Foodies of Rocklin/Roseville Facebook group and Yelp reviews for other Krispy Krunchy locations for their recommendations.

    Got a 6 piece tenders and a soda. 2.25 plus 11.99 plus tax and crv is 15.59, I asked why it's so…read moreexpensive he said it's the tax. So I got to my car and did the math and I went back in to ask for a refund. Guy hands me a 5 and says sorry that he double charged me for the soda. But that's not true because the total would've been over 18. I asked a few times for a refund but the guy didn't speak English good and I did want the chicken. The 5 made it alright enough for me to keep my food. Chicken is mid anyways, KKC usually is good but this location was just alright. I wanted to give the guy the benefit of the doubt but it doesn't check out that he double charged me. It would've been more. Really disappointing experience.

    It's about time I post a review! This is such a good go-to spot…read more First off, I want to say the customer service is exceptional. You order at the counter, and they bring out the food really fast. Another thing that made me love this place is how well they actually read and acknowledge special instructions from DoorDash, most restaurants don't do that. The second thing to talk about is their food. I normally get the giant quesadilla, super burrito, enchilada, or California burrito. Right now, my go-to is the California burrito, which I have pictures of. Pro tip: I ask for mine extra grilled so that the tortilla is a bit crunchy on the outside, and I ask for extra carne asada meat because I am usually really hungry. One little nitpick about this place is that their meat portion isn't as large as what I normally see in other taquerias, but it still tastes good. These are not Tijuana-style tacos or burritos; they are just standard grilled meat. I love that they have an all-you-can-eat salsa bar with habanero hot sauce. Lastly, the ambiance and vibe are pretty chill. It was great when we brought some family here, and they really enjoyed it. If you have a big party, they also have seating outside with some shade. On the inside, it seems more like an "eat, chill for a little bit, and leave" type of place. They have a few TVs; it's not really a sports bar, but they play random things on the screens. There are probably around three TVs total, one in each corner of the restaurant. Overall, the restaurant is really nice and clean, which is what I really love about it. I'm rating it five stars just because I know this is a place that I always come back to. It's an easy go-to since it's close by. I think it's solid if you're just passing by as well. The one thing I could say is that I don't know about their other specialty dishes.

    It's not your typical taqueria, walking in is very vibrant and inviting. There is a variety of…read moreMexican food and they even have hand made tortillas being made in the dining area. Staff is friendly and helpful. They have a buffet of sides you can get like chips and salsas. We ordered the pozole and menudo, they both were really really delicious! Just a heads up there is no hominy in the menudo, I know that's how it's made in parts of Mexico just not use to having to ask for it but it was very enjoyable and had flavor.
