    This review is specifically for the fried chicken offered at KFC and their customer service. There are 17 locations of KFC in HI, with the Kaneohe location opened around 1987 or 1988 in the Windward City Shopping Center. Originally known as Kentucky Fried Chicken, it changed its name to KFC in 1991 to appeal to health-conscious consumers, as well as to shorten its name. The restaurant chain is known for its buckets of fried chicken, combo meals, sandwiches, sides, chicken pot pie, and bowls. Since I was in the area, I visited the Kaneohe location of KFC to order their Tuesday special of 8 pieces dark meat chicken (4 drumsticks + 4 thighs) for $10. It sounded like a deal. I ordered all pieces original, knowing the extra crispy did not have any taste. Yes, all 8 pieces came with a bucket, but it was so misaligned, as the bucket was so much bigger than the actual chicken. Yes, the chicken pieces were puny, as the drumsticks looked like drumettes, and the thighs were so small. One drumstick actually showed a side of the bone, with the meat gone. All chicken pieces were also greasy. The chickens were tasteless. Even at this good deal, the chickens' quality is compromised, which made this deal not a good one. Now I know why I haven't had KFC for years. Three stars for the chicken. I was told that this special was on my app. So, as I was trying to finalize my order on my app, I was having a problem, as it kept saying that this special was not applicable to this location. Fortunately, there were no customers in the store, so two staff members (CJ and a female worker) helped me to delete the app and reinsert it into my cell phone, as well as to ensure proper info was inputted. The two individuals were very friendly, knowledgeable, and helpful, and so I was very grateful that they helped me. Other places would have just told me that I had to do it on my own. Add on another star for their helpfulness and friendly attitude. Minimal staff at this small KFC location, with most of their customer contact is via drive-through. Staff is very friendly. It was slow during the peak lunch hour. They have a nice interior dining area that is clean and bright. Hours of operation are daily 10:30a to 9:30p. Free parking in shopping complex that is shared with other businesses. I remember the days of the past when KFC was the best chicken around with its regular original batter or extra crispy batter. You would find buckets of chicken at many potlucks around town. And now, I just couldn't believe how tiny their chickens are and greasy they are. No wonder I haven't been part of the scene for many years. What happened to its quality? If the Colonel was still around, I'm sure he would be very upset. Sure hope there will be a revival!

    We were at Windward City Shopping Center and wanted to get something for dinner. It was late, around 7:10pm. I wanted to try the dim sum spot but they closed at 7. We decided on KFC and ordered on the phone app. Luckily, they closed at 8. I ordered some extra crispy chicken pieces and mashed potatoes. The hubby ordered a Nashville Hot Mac & Cheese Bowl. When we went to pick up our food, it still wasn't ready. They told me that if I wanted the extra crispy chicken it would take another 20 minutes. However, they had the original recipe chicken ready if I was ok with that. I went with the original instead of waiting another 20 minutes. They also messed up with the Nashville Hot Mac & Cheese Bowl. He just got the regular Mac & Cheese Bowl. The food was still good though and the cashier was nice.

    6 piece chicken with sides - mac 'n cheese, coleslaw, biscuits, corn & mashed potatoes for $24 ! Special offer on mobile app. It wasn't quite ready yet when we arrived even though the order status on the app said that it was. The manager on duty was very nice. Our order was correct ! The food was tasty. The thighs were good sized this time. Will definitely get that special again.

    This "KFC" is located in the Winward City Shopping Center in Kaneohe. I was driving through town and decided to pop in for a quick meal. Because I dined in, and because the food didn't have to endure the rigors of travel, the plate that they served me was aesthetically "picture perfect", and the taste was textbook good. The store was very clean and well maintained. But I can tell that this restaurant is still feeling the aftereffects of the pandemic. There seemed to be a shortage of workers; and the store seems to be focused on drive-thru business with occasional walk-ins. My only complaint? There was a note posted in the entrance stating that the bathroom was closed; but, if necessary, there was a restroom available next to the sushi restaurant. After a long drive, I decided to go for a walk and explore the shopping center. There was no restroom available next to the sushi restaurant. *snipe hunt*

    8 piece chicken 8 Piece Meal

    Ordered from door dash. 8 piece meal, didnt come with biscuits, and also, the chicken was abysmally bad(see pic). They included that piece in the 8 pieces, most of them were super small. The ones that were of decent size were dry, like dryer than grilled chicken breast left in a dehydrator. Bucket look like it came from chickens with avian flu.

    The restaurant doesn't let you dine in because of COVID but you can go in and order takeout. Unfortunately since they are focused on call in and drive through customers and they don't notice real people. Once I got their attention, the order went through quickly. The service was ok, the sandwich freshly made, but Kentucky fried chicken just doesn't taste so good.

    The picture is mashed potatoes without the gravy. No gravy in a separate bowl, no gravy packed with the meal.

    We ordered online/ pickup, 8 pc fillup, and 2 orders of hot wings. The biscuits were not quite baked through, still a little doughy. The picture is mashed potatoes without the gravy. No gravy in a separate bowl, no gravy packed with the meal. The order was supposed to include mashed potatoes and gravy. The cole slaw is very watery. The honey "sauce" is sugar water, disgusting . Very disappointed in the service. I tried calling the restaurant, busy signal for 3 blips then a hangup. I called repeatedly for 20 minutes to report the mistakes. Could not get through, so I posted on Yelp. The hot wings with the KFC sauce is one of my favorites, still is.

    Initial visit to Uncle's Chicken in the Kapalama Shopping Plaza across from Upscale Hawaii, the old…read moreDiner's The eatery is nestled in between Viet Chubby Boy and Sakana Grill. Open for 3-4 years, it is one of those hole-in-the-wall places that locals who live and work in the neighborhood are cognizant of as a hidden gem. I am not the biggest fan of chicken...give me duck, anyday. But a good chicken sandwich is a meal that I can appreciate. Looking at the menu on the picture window...I had to wonder is Uncle: Korean...African-American...Deep South gentleman? Well, I think he's Taiwanese. Menu revolves around chicken. They have plates, sandwiches, and slushies. I got the Taro Hokkaido Slushie for takeout. It was okay...I can't tell you what it tastes like...other than that it was sweet. The Grilled Chicken Sandwich was unassuming. It was slightly spiced...a bit different than I am used to and it had a bit of a kick. I would not order anything spicy from their menu. Piece of battered chicken breast that was both juicy and flavorful. A real surprise. Service was just under 15 minutes...I walked in and ordered takeout. There was one order ahead of me. Dining area is bigger than you would think, but there are only four tables inside...it is mostly a takeaway place. Parking stalls are for Uncle's and the plaza. Stalls at Upscale, as well. Hours are from 1030a till 930p...except on Fridays and Saturdays, when they close at 1000p.
