Stopped here while visiting the city. I do agree that chicken is salty but that is the brand. I believe that and prices are set by corporate for the franchise. This place is clean and my experience with people working there was great. I am sure it's a challenge to run any business in this tenderloin area. They also sell pizza and open late. read more

The honor was so nice and hospitable. My order got mixed up so he brought me enough food to feed an army.. very nice gesture. I appreciate your kindness. read more

Ordered around 3 pm, and unfortunately, the chicken wasn't fresh at all. I got the 3-piece mixed with biscuit, but ended up with just two bone-in pieces and one random chicken tender instead. The biscuit was hard as a rock. Pretty disappointing, especially since I was expecting freshly cooked chicken. Not the quality I've experienced at other Krispy Krunchy locations. read more

After a few drinks at a nearby bar, we were craving something fried and crispy. We did a Yelp! search and found this place was open well into the night. We swung by and ordered a 4 piece. Let's just say, it was a SALT BOMB. Probably the saltiest thing outside of pouring salt straight into our mouths. I will give it a thumbs up for crunch, but other than that, this place is a hard pass. Save yourselves and find another place. High hopes ended with disappointment and lingering aftertaste. Pass the Pepto. read more

Delicious. Open late. The chicken is great. I like the jambalaya and the red bean and rice. read more

I'm all for Krispy Krunchy Chicken, but we picked up 8pc before closing, so the chicken wasn't very fresh. I was hungry, so I still ate it but it was a bit dry and hard. Definitely try to come when it's fresh. read more

This is a relatively new fast food place that I only heard of because my high school friend recommended me to check it out. Although I was planning to get a full meal at another restaurant, I decided to check this place out by splitting a 2 pc chicken order with a friend. As expected for fast food places, the price per calorie is pretty great. The meal comes with a biscuit, but it is not a biscuit. Honestly, the biscuit is more like a thick oatmeal cookie than a typical biscuit, which implies they probably ran out of the regular biscuit. Even my high school friend was asking, "what's that?" and he went here just a few hours ago. In that case, I can't say they gave the wrong order, but it would be nice to know they ran out of biscuits. As for the fried chicken, I got the drumstick which should be more tender. It was still a bit dry, and I am not surprised because it is fast food. My mouth was occasionally left dry as I swallow a bite. However, the batter is pretty flavorful and not terribly oily, unlike KFC which I last tried 7 years ago. The "biscuit" was a bit too sweet and dry as well, so while the food is seasoned decently, I had a tough time enjoying the food. read more

Known to many people as "The Gas Station Chicken" finally has a store front located in the Tenderloin. This chicken lives up to the hype and in my opinion is better than the any Popeye's or KFC fried chicken. It's crispy, not greasy, there's no oily after taste. The chicken has that hint of cajun spice. The honey butter biscuits are amazing--sweet and buttery, every bite is a bite of deliciousness. Despite the location, it's worth the daytime stroll to check out. read more

Super small fried chicken joint in the Tenderloin. No place to sit down and eat so really only good for people in the neighborhood. Definitely not as good as Popeye's or even KFC. It's better than Safeway fried chicken though. Fried Chicken: Got the mixed 4-piece so I could experience all the different meat types. The wing was nice and crispy. The breast was really large and full of juicy meat. The drumstick and thigh were about what you'd expect. Overall, the meat was tender but the skin was only partially crispy. Also, the spices weren't that standout. Biscuits: Was definitely not feeling this. There was some sort of strange butter-honey-flavored glaze on top that was not the consistency of butter nor honey. Needlessly sticky and not that tasty. Boudin Bite: This was fun. Like a fast food arancini with cajun flavors and sausage. read more

This chicken is ok just ok at most but got the price it should be delicious...25$ for 8 pieces of chicken ?! Why would you charge so much ? The economy is bad enough that we have gas station chicken places charging more for this mediocre low grade fried chicken. Everyone should stop eating your under grown chicken parts. Stop ripping people off , your chicken isn't any good and you know it. read more

So this was my first time having Krispy Krunchy Chicken. This is a location that had just reopened also. Here are my honest thoughts. Fried Chicken (dark mix)- it was crunchy, not as much breading as you would see on KFC's more like Popeyes. The seasoning wasn't too bad, slightly more on the salty side but not overbearing. It was good and def better than I had expected I will say. Jambalaya- it was okay. I mean, I wasn't expecting gourmet or anything but the flavors were there. All the meats in it were tender but was a bit cold, mind you, the location was only like 6 blocks away. So it was a bit surprising. Mac & Cheese- this was actually pretty delicious but..... it was a bit on the cold side too. You don't expect these to be that much lower in temperature as these are warm sides so I'm a bit stunned by that. Mashed Potatoes- not bad, was good in flavor, the gravy was fine, but..... was also on the cooler side in temperature. Honey biscuits- they are interesting. It's very sweet with the honey over the top. The biscuit itself was very crispy as it seemed maybe dry? Every bite was a dry crispy crunch(no pun either)! Don't get me wrong it's good but I prefer KFCs. I had priority delivery so I'm not sure how these sides were even cold as if it's been sitting out. You can just look at the photos and tell because there's weren't even any residue condensations on the containers. The flavors of everything were good but the experience was mediocre. I would've rated it at least 4 stars had it seemed like my sides weren't left out for a while. As I mentioned this was my first impression with Krispy Krunchy Chicken and so we will just have to wait and see if there's a second. Update** Had to update review and change rating to 4 stars as I realized it's not fair of me to lower it to 3 for one minor detail, simply because the service was indeed spectacular and food actually tasted good. Every restaurant during this pandemic is struggling, and we all need to remember that. Plus, I expected too much. Check this place out if you have the chance! Thanks! read more

The chicken, burgers and Philly steak sandwiches & jambalaya are delicious! The sauces also, I personally like the Original sauce. The cashier is patient for the area that is located on. The inside of the location feels safe. read more

We got it via PostMates so we did not dine in. I am not sure if this was their fault or the PostMates Delivery person's fault but I ordered Biscuits and it was not in my order. In addition, we had the 6oz mashed potatoes and had no spoon. The chicken however was fried very well. I like the crispiness of the skin as it wasn't dried and had flavor. The inside had a little spiciness which I thoroughly enjoyed as it was a kick but not overbearing. read more

I first visited this place after my meal from elsewhere. I browse through the posted menu and paper menu on what was offered. But this tiny place has no dining area. And we all know that the Tenderloin neighborhood is not very enchanting. Therefore, I had to think of a way to get their fried chicken to my casa. Then I saw Grub Hub do deliver. This is my first time using the food delivery service to my casa. And I chose KKC as my first meal. I ordered the 8-piece leg and thigh for $12.99 and a 6-pack of honey biscuits. I placed my order from my app, and it will take 30-35 minutes to be delivered to my place. After a 30 minute wait, Mohammed, also an Uber driver, delivered my meal in front of my place. The chickens and biscuits were still very hot with steam steaming through the bag. The thigh pieces were ginormous, which is a meal itself. The skin was crunchy and not overly battered. And the honey biscuit had a honey glazed topping. If I had to choose biscuits from any fried chicken places, I would stick with Popeye's. As a first-time user to Grub Hub, you get $5.00 off from your meal and delivery from KKC. Whatever meal you are in the mood for, take advantage of the offered specials from Grub Hub. read more

I came here one drunk night, and I've been hooked ever since. It's in a sketch area, but don't be alarmed. The workers are nice! Pretty convenient since I live close by. And there arent a lot of places near me that I like to go to. This is theeee place to get your fried chicken. Reasonably priced. And the chicken is like their name, krunnnnnchhhhyyy. Unfortunately, their mash is all wrong. I don't know what it is. Not enough butter? Not enough cream? I love mash, and hope they work on it because it's such a staple to fried chicken. At least to me.... One thing they don't lack is a bam of salt haha. As much as I like my food to have a taste, I'd like to decide how much should be on my potato wedges. They tend to have a heavy hand here. But I would highly recommend getting as well. The biscuits are great, but again a little too salty. Highly recommend! read more

There was a time where I was obsessed with finding the best fried chicken...so of course I couldn't ignore this nearby one-dollar-sign location. Although the walk to the neighborhood left less to be desired, I was pleasantly surprised by my experience getting the chicken (and my experience eating it lol). The employees here were very friendly and answered my question about pricing and kinds of meat (I just want dark meat, please!). Pricing was around $10 for dark meat (thighs or something - sorry, he explained but I've forgotten now). And after I made it home and started eating the chicken - wow. My craving was totally and completely satisfied. Thick pieces of perfectly fried, juicy and tender chicken... mmmmm... I'm getting the craving just remembering this! It didn't need the hot sauce to go along with it, it was already pretty perfect. I will definitely be coming back to this place for more chicken! Maybe soon! read more

I ordered a delivery through an online app for the first time (GrubHub). not a fan of food delivery apps actually, but this evening I made an exception due to my craving of fried chicken and I'm not in the mood of walking to Popeye on Divisadero. so, I ordered these fried chickens through the online app. the food came on time, hot, generous portions of napkins and ketchups & hot sauce without being asked for (good service). fried chickens were awesome and crunchy! the buffalo wings were really tasty and done correctly. I will visit this location in person. I like this. read more

You ever walked out of Popeyes crestfallen? Yes You ever walked by a KFC, looked in and feel upset? God Yes Have you had to resort to Korean Chicken? Hell yea, it's amazing but my wallet cries each time. Pavlov could use me to study the link between fried chicken in SF and sincere dejection. Ordered from here trying to rekindle my spiritual connection I had lost since moving here... it didn't disappoint Value for money is amazing, the size of the chicken pieces was very satisfying. Tenderness of the chicken, ALSO satisfying, almost too soft but we good The only thing lacking is the flavour. Good salt amounts and some attempts at flavour but for the most part, relatively plain. It just means BYOS (bring your own sauce). Would have been 5 stars if they had their own unique flavour. read more

I ordered a 7up Lemon Pound Cake (look at receipt) and they gave me a sprite instead... freakin $6.99 for a can of soda! Way to rip someone off! So mad! (Their Fried Chicken is soooooo gooood tho).

Great chicken spot near our hotel, my family loved it! The potato wedges were huge and rolls sweet. Great neighborhood spot.

In the heart of the Tenderloin unceremoniously tucked into a building you might think twice about is by far the best chicken in the city! It's not fancy, but it's worth getting to. I've been there several times and it's always fresh and hot. I like the Cajun strips, with just enough spice to set them apart. You don't need dipping sauce, it's crispy outside and juicy inside and cooked perfectly. I'm told other locations are good too, but the staff here is nice, so I haven't looked anywhere else. read more

Chicken isn't bad. Better than kfc not as good as Popeyes. $20.00 for 10 bone in wings is pretty steep though.

I placed an order for 2 family platters through Uber eats and ultimately only received 1 family platter. I tried calling multiple times, but was never able to get a hold of someone. I called Uber eats and all they could do is apologize and discount me the $48 and . So now I'm stuck with no food while my coworkers eat... read more

KKC might be the best fast food fried chicken out here. The batter is the right thickness and has just enough seasoning. I usually get it delivered and it somehow travels really well versus other fried chicken I have ordered from other places. On top of all of the pros is the price point. Eight pieces of chicken is around $10. My only complaint is that it is a little salty, but whatever it is damn good. read more

Liked it a lot. Reminded me of Popeyes with the meal deal and the sides We got a wing, a thigh, a biscuit and a side of rice and beans Everything tasted great. And the chicken was moist and crispy and perfect The clerk at the register was sweet I also like their clear bags! Today was voting day and this was near our polling location read more

The fried chicken is good, but the Mac is great , and the honey biscuits are addictive. Like I'm in Step 5 of my 12, and I am considering going back. read more

It's fine but it's not better than popeyes which is the standard that all fast food fried chicken (and frankly all fried chicken period) is judged against. It might seem unfair to set the bar so high but it is what it is. But KKC is totally still good and if this spot is convenient for you, def give it a shot. read more

Game over for KFC. Krispy Krunchys have been popping up everywhere. I got a breast, thigh, and biscuit meal today. It blew KFC out of the water. They aren't even in the same category. Krispy Krunchy's chicken was huge and perfectly cooked. Really ideal fried chicken. I've yet to try the sides, but if they're even remotely as good as the chicken, I'll be thrilled. read more

This restaurant serves fried chicken and tries to be a cross between KFC and Popeyes. Unfortunately, it's worse than either. Their chicken is well done - juicy, with crispy spicy breading. However that's about all they got right. I had their Mac n cheese side, and it tasted exactly like the Boyardee stuff that used to come in a can before it was discontinued. They don't have any vegetable sides besides mashed potatoes which are the highest calorie option. The "biscuit" that came with my meal was a blueberry muffin top. None of the meals have fewer than 900 calories - and that's without a side or drink, both of which cost extra! Overall, my meal cost over $11 for some tenders, a biscuit, and a side. I can get the same combo, with a cookie and a drink, two blocks down at KFC for $6. read more

YUM. A worthy chix alternative when you've OD'd on Popeyes. The chicken tenders are so good you don't need to douse them in sauces. Mashed potatoes better than KFC not as good as Popeyes. Fricken biscuits...so good but watch out because they are 250 calories a pop! Haven't tried the other sides so can't speak to them. It's worth noting that I found out about this place because I was standing in front of a guy on Muni who saw another guy with the Krispy Krunchy bag and they both had a love fest about how good it was. Earned media!! read more

I am a huge fried chicken lover. And when I talk about fried chicken, it can only be buttermilk fried chicken. Not Korean style. When talking about fried chicken,this area was lack of option.
