    No date of when it was written, and no expiration date
    Nikki C.

    Called KFC Corporate and they were appalled by my experience and the lack of customer service from the manager. They are mailing a $30 gift certificate that I can use at any KFC. They are also sending the District manager a message so they can address the issue. I appreciate that KFC is making the situation right We love KFC and my son always requested it when we lived near the Placentia location. Unfortunately in three years we have not had one mediocre experience at this store. We will be back, just not this location.

    I have heard a lot about this AYCE (all you can eat) KFC in Lake Elsinore from one of my friends and I decided to take I-15 instead of I-5 on my way back from San Diego to LA because I really wanted to see just how many chicken I can actually eat in one setting. This KFC location is conveniently located right off I-15 and I believe you will have to drive to Banning, CA for the other location with KFC buffet. Price: $8.99 for AYCE buffet OR $7.99 for 2 pieces AYCE buffet and each breast meat will cost additional $0.79 per piece. All buffets include a drink and 10% senior discount is available. Buffet rules: Use a new plate at every serving, receipt required for new plates, no sharing from the buffet, and no taking buffet food out of the restaurant. I actually paid extra $0.79 for breast meat and honestly I would not do it again because buffet actually had a good selection of food. Unlimited coleslaw, mashed potato, corn, biscuits, chicken wings, and thighs were more than enough for my belly to handle. Normally I would give a 4-star for such an amazing deal, but I had take a star off because (1) they ran out of unsweetened tea and (2) they ran out of the Original Recipe so I got Extra Crispy instead because I didn't want to wait 10 additional minutes. I wouldn't drive out of the way just for AYCE KFC because you probably pay more gas money anyway, but it is an affordable meal option if you are shopping at Outlets near Lake Elsinore or on the way to Temecula. P.S. - You will need a password in order to access restrooms.

    Raw chicken from KFC
    Sandy H.

    This happened to me on Sunday 4/9. Around 3pm I used the drive thru to order an 8 piece family meal. Paid over $33 dollars and was asked to park in front of the store. My meal came about 5 minutes later. Got home to find that the chicken inside the bucket had zero to none breading. As I took each piece out I realize the chicken was still raw. I called to inform them, the guy that answered the phone said that it was impossible for that to be because their oil is hot. Basically I was lying. Told the person I would just deal with corporate. I did send an email and pictures to them. Hopefully they will do something. Check out the picture. I had to put all the chicken in the oven to finish cooking it.

    2 starts for speed but now I know why! Food dry, dry and dry. Corn had no water and fries completely dried out. Only thing fresh was the biscuits surprisingly. This happened once a while back I called and complained and all they could do was exchange food same day. I live a good while away who the heck wants to turn around and exchange something that should've been rt from the first time. Will not be going back! Next time I'll wait 30min for N-N-Out

    A la Carte Chicken & Donut Sandwich
    Klariza F.

    Disappointing donut sandwich and tiny ass hot wings. Hopefully if I do try their buffet it might be better. KFC always tends to be a hit or miss, they have good days and bad, just like when I use to work at one.

    Tiny side of Mac n cheese for 3 dollars. Container not even full.

    It's been a while since I lived in Lake Elsinore, does anyone know if this location still does the buffet?

    Unfortunately, the buffet closed at the start of Covid when the dining room was closed for over a year.… Read more

    What are the days and hours for the buffet?

    My husband just asked and they will not be serving buffet for this location anymore. Sadly.

    The service was fantastic from Yvonne! She better be Manager if she's not she needs to be. She…read morenailed it and was multitasking and the politeness was out of this world! She is what the training videos should look like at every company dealing with the public. Now let's talk food. The chicken nuggets were good. I would eat those again they had these french fries that were made out of why UCCA or something those were actually really good it was almost like eating like a doughnut without the frosting. I would definitely get those again I would actually probably go specifically to this place for that. The empanada was OK. The sauces were actually really good. Yvonne was great she gave me a variety to try. So I would definitely go back there for the french fries or chicken nuggets and maybe I would try something else. Surprisingly compared to other places right now it was not too expensive.

    Hubby's been waiting for this place to open. Said he had this a few times when he was younger. We…read moretried a few things. Hubby had the 4 piece special with plantains and fries. My daughter got the 6 piece nuggets with fries and I got empanadas for me and hubby to try and the Yuca fries. First, everything smelled good but I usually double check the order and we were missing our plantains which is ok we were still there. When we got home I didn't realize we were missing the rolls for the meals either. We didn't want to go back a third time and left it. The chicken was decent not that bad. Hubby preferred grilled over the fried chicken. Said flavor was delicious. Plantains were not bad. Fries I think were the best. Not salty at all kind of soggy but very delicious and I personally prefer soggy fries. The chicken nuggets were also ok. They weren't bad. Girls ate a couple and the fries. Now the yuca fries, they tasted a bit old. They were kind of stale and not my favorite. Empanada was crunch and filling was tasty. Those are good. Overall, I had higher hopes for this place and so did hubby. We were a bit disappointed and then given we were the only ones in the drive thru and the restaurant was kind of empty, we still received our order incorrectly. The staff were friendly I will say that.

    Last Wednesday, June 2026, I decided to give this establishment a shot. I used to always eat here…read moreback in the day. I pulled up to the menu around 12:20z There was one car in front of me. They ordered quickly and moved on. I did not see the original chicken bowl on the menu so I inquired. The kind employee told me that I could in fact order the original chicken bowl (minus the pico for me-tomatoes-why would you). I did not ask the price. I was too hungry to care. I paid and received my bowl all under five minutes. Wow! The bowl was filled to the top. The food was super hot. The chicken was moist and had an amazing flavor. I was very impressed. And all of that for under $6. Unheard of. I can't recommend this place enough. I will definitely be going back I have eaten once in the dining room like 10+ years ago so obviously it's been a while. It was fine but a bit chilly for my tastes, as are most places for me. I'm a take-out kind of gal. Anyway, if you want healthy and affordable, eat here!!

    This is ridiculous. You pay for beans, rice and cheese for $3.19 but instead I got basically a…read moretortilla burrito. I didn't get any salsa. I didn't ask if I wanted any salsa. The workers inside they were moving too fast. Nobody wanted to make eye contact with anybody as if they were afraid to help. although this may be off of the value menu, you're still looking for something to be presentable and hardy, and not the size of a child's hand I would not return back to this place. oh, and the restrooms were filthy. I thought they were supposed to be checked at least every hour every two hours you can tell this restroom haven't been checked for a couple of hours.
