    2 extra crispy legs, mashed potato, biscuit, butter
    Ned T.

    I ordered extra crispy chicken legs and the meat was a little dry. The cashier also forgot to give me a plastic knife and spoon (how else can I eat my mashed potatoes or spread butter on my biscuit). However she was friendly aside from that. I see lots of one star reviews and I think those reviewers are too harsh. This place isn't amazing but it's cheap and definitely deserves better than the one star reviews

    Everyone, My own imposed rules for any Chain Restaurant review: 1. Must visit at least three times. Two of which must be distinctly different formats; i.e. one weekday night and one weekend night. 2. Since the food should be the same everywhere, with the exception of regional items, the food category will only be judged on the quality of the expected food (i.e. temperature, consistency, and amount). 3. Ratings are based on a 10 point scale with 5 being average, which does not mean bad. What a score of 5 means is that the category meets expectations for that establishments format. Thanks. Kentucky Fried Chicken - KFC - Elgin West Location/Layout - 4/10: Easily visible from Randall Road, the location is wedged in the Northwest corner of the Brewster Creek Shopping Center Parking lot. The angle of the location and bizarre parking lot and drive through layout take a little getting used to and can be challenging especially with any snow. There is ample eating room inside although the interior always has debris on tables and especially around the fountain area, which is especially odd since it is directly next to the order/cooking area and in eye shot of all employees. Service - 3.5/10: The order takers are usually friendly and quick but the cooking and preparation area is always a miss. There has never been a time that I have visited were all food is ready; they are always waiting on something, whether it be a side item or a style of chicken and therefore can not complete orders quickly. This always causes chaos in the food prep and especially drive through area. It also leads to massive delays in getting orders complete. Food - 3.5/10: Due to the issues described above with food always running low you end up with partial orders, or one person have a complete order while the others wait, or a massive wait while most of your order sits getting cold in bags. Additionally, there is always one style of chicken, which by some chance of fate is always the one that I order that has been sitting under the heat lamp for hours and is now officially chicken jerky. Overall Experience - 4/10: KFC has always been an easy pick up on busy nights for dinner especially for a larger crowd when we are traveling. They are also located in front of Target which makes a quick dinner after hitting Target for a couple essentials an easy trip. Unfortunately, you are always risking quality and service but more especially time when visiting this location. We have found it easier to run to one of the other dozen or so restaurants located around the Randall and 20 corridor when grabbing a quick meal on our way home.

    The manager Miranda at this KFC location on Randall is a great representation of what every KFC manager should be like.

    I was looking for a quick place in Elgin because I was going to see a play downtown. Wasn't sure…read morewhat I wanted either, but I generally like Greek fast food places. Stopped in for dinner with my wife. I got the cheeseburger special (fries and a drink). I will say it was good, but a bit heavy on the added mustard. Most places go heavier on the ketchup side, but this was mustard heavy. Fries were good. Wife got the Greek chicken. She never finishes her meal so I always get to comment on both dishes. I have to say the Greek chicken was outstanding. Really flavorful. I had her wing, leg and part of the breast. The rice was tender and yummy. Small piece of garlic bread but was also good. Greek potatoes were really good too. I made a mistake. I should have ordered what she had. It was that good. I wish I took a photo, but the food was devoured so quickly. The service was long, but Thats to be expected when you order chicken dishes. Only two other people in the restaurant and both had the Greek chicken as well. I want to go back, but it's too far unless I decide to take on another play in the area. Workers in the restaurant were very nice and friendly. They thanked us for dining with them. I like that.

    Fast service. Food was always hot and trash. I mainly go for the hotdog specials which is two dogs…read morefries and drink. Their burgers are good especially the mushroom burger. There is a service charge if you use the card but if pay cash you do not have the Cc surcharge. Service very friendly fast and I am very happy with my meals I eaten there. Also they have inside tables. Highly recommend.

    This little micromanager, called my father "stupid as f***" , word by word, because they failed to…read moremake the order properly according to the website. we ordered 4 different burgers online, 4 of them came incorrect. Plain, nothing on them. we made no edits to anything we ordered, we didn't ask for any items to be removed but all items came with missing ingredients. I called and them and they told me that's how i ordered it, i looked at my receipt and no that was not how i ordered it. so we come in and nicely ask for our food to be made properly and explain what we ordered, showing them the receipt on the bag. the manager tries to tell us the western bbq burger doesn't come with the fried onions or barbecue unless you ask for it. hm, weird. because if i wanted a single stack burger i'd order that right? whatever, after a little bit of bickering he decided he will remake that burger but nothing else. my father tries his best to diffuse the situation as we approached them as nicely as we could to solve the problem (we work in food service too we get it) so he's trying to explain that maybe this is a misunderstanding from both employees side and customers side. Explaining that maybe this was something they need to take to their superiors to fix the website because what was advertised ingredient wise in the picture and caption is not what we got. We were missing bacon and sauces and key ingredients to our burgers. we received bread and meat. nothing else. the crew members decide to step in to argue and interrupt while we're explaining what happened, and call us names, saying we're wrong. The big lady with the hairnet told her manager "they have to take it up with doordash anyways" and the manager was telling it to go away because he can handle it... We did not order through doordash! Wrong order! Let your manager handle it. As the manager was talking to my dad, this girl steps in, reading the wrong receipt and proceeds to tell me that that's how my burger came. pointing to the receipt "that's how you ordered it" arguing with us... i have no idea who's order she was reading but it literally was not ours. and the name on the top was different. "that's not my order" i say "oh..." Wrong order! Just let your manager handle it next time... stop interrupting if you don't know how to solve that problem. You don't even know what's going on! That girl was ready to fight yet so clueless but looking for a reason to argue! she then proceeds to scoff and walk away saying "yall stupid as f***" i'm pretty sure she was just high. Poor poor attitude. Must be her first job or something but i've never seen somebody keep their job very long acting like that. manager was also rude to us from the start and refused to make the order over again until my father explained from his own personal work experience and working in the industry from mcdonald's to fine dining, that he's been in his shoes too. And after explaining about 8 solid times we just want our food how we ordered it on the app, he decided to remake the order. he did not want to help us at all at the start and they went 0-100 raising voices at us when we were SO nice about what happened. took 30 minutes to get out of there the second time after spending 30 minutes waiting for the food the first time. super unprofessional staff. however i gained a little respect for the manager after he finally decided to hear us out after 20 minutes and finally remake our food the way it's written on the menu. however you shouldn't have somebody with that poor of an attitude working the front, some customer service training is needed and maybe wearing press on nails + touching your hair aren't the smartest things to do when you're working with food. Touching dirty hair can easily get it caught underneath the nails. or weaken the nails to where they pop off in food! yuck! her poor attitude is written all over her body language as well. this employee belongs in the back of house not the front. Disrespecting people because you didn't do your job properly is not cute. super disappointing experience lol don't come here

    The food was hot and fresh. You order from the kiosks and save the QR code to scan for your drinks…read more The service was fast and friendly. It is clean and seems to be kept up. The iced tea was good and the shake was delicious.
