Where do I begin on this pan of the Midwood location(Coney Island Ave. @ Quentin Road)? Surly staff, for starters — and not enough to boot(which could be contributing to the surliness!); one cashier and a clerk who went to back up on prep and bagging when there was a crowd on line! Dirty floors and tables, overflowing trash bin and VERY dirty restroom — I’ve been there multiple times and that’s ALWAYS the case. But why I’m NEVER returning there now: they gave me FOODPOISONING with an order of Nachos(which I got on a Winter day when the soda machine pipes were frozen and nobody could order combos as a result!). I KNEW there was a reason why they tasted odd to me. 12 hours and 3 or 4 doses of Pepto-Bismol later, I knew what it was!

If I could give no stars, I would. I understand that this is not a five star place and don’t except it to be but… So many issues on one visit that my family will never spend another dime in the place again. It was not cheap, I think one of the most expense fast food chains out there. Then to have to wait 20 minutes to order(2 people ahead of me) then another 15 minutes just for my food. Isn’t this supposed to be fast food? The place is filthily! Do they take out the garbage? Mop the floors? When they realized that the needed some more corn for my order they went to the next order then when they got the corn they realized now I needed French fries. If they would have reviewed the order correctly and in full the first time they would have realized that they needed corn, French fries, mash pot. any maybe my wait wouldn’t have been so long. The cashier disappeared after taking my order and the gentleman after left after waiting 15 minutes. Visit a different KFC!!!

$ 20 family fill up meal definitely filled me up! I selected the original recipe chicken wings, thighs, drumsticks, and breasts. The meal also came with two mashed potatoes, one gravy(enough for the two mashed potatoes), one coleslaw(not enough for everyone), and four buttermilk biscuits. This deal is fantastic, with tax, my total came to just under $ 22! I was really stuffed after my meal was complete and the chicken was cooked to perfection! The mashed potatoes were warm and the buttermilk biscuits were crispy on the outside and warm and buttery on the inside! I will definitely be back!

Ok people now relax… is this a five star restaurant? no Is the place completely clean? not always. Does your order come out perfect and is it a seamless transaction? ummmm sometimes. But the truth of the matter is we compromise on those things because the food is pretty inexpensive and the food isn’t the worst in the world. Now remember this place is hot bed of useless calories and increased sodium, so if you eat lean turn around and run in the other direction. If you can stomach through that then get ready for some amazing biscuits and heavenly wedges! NOTVEGETARIANFRIENDLY but that’s obvious. Thankfully they have some adorable staff members so while your meat eating friends order loads of steroid pumped chicken legs revel in the cute face of the girl with the dimples in front of you.

I don’t come here often but when I do there’s always some kind of a problem. First of all, check to make sure you have everything you ordered. Every single time I come home and realize that something is missing, despite being charged for it. It’s expected at this point. The final straw was when the cashier tried to unsuccessfully handle two customers. She was taking my order while taking cash from the woman in front of me. I ordered ONE thing. She obviously did not hear me, because she was preoccupied with the woman in front of me, and put the wrong item into the system. When I corrected her she tried to belittle me and tell me that I told her the wrong item. She was trying to convince me that I ordered something else. Then, she proceeded to hand me the other woman’s change. The woman in front of me flipped out and told her to handle one customer at a time, since she epically failed at multitasking. I was flabbergasted. The cashier then tried to blame me for her mistake. I knew I was not in a fine dining establishment, so I didn’t expect great service but this was too much. Never again.

Take out is fine however, dining in can be hit or miss as the tables are not always clean. The staff has definitely improved lately, more efficient and friendly. Overall not too bad for a fast food place.

KFC is a place in which I go to with my friends to get a quick bite because of how close it is to my house. I either get some breast and some wings from KFC or a T9 meal from taco bell because they are both combined into one. The employees always seem to be in a horrible mood and look at you like they are about to murder you. Not so welcoming as you assume a fast-food restaurant to be. The place is always filled with extra space, which is good, but a lack of care can be observed in the place judging from the dirty and messy tables. I usually have to clean it myself. The bathroom in this place is also not so friendly. A weird odor and a messy toilet bowl is expected as you walk in. Besides the downside of that, the place itself serves pretty good and delicious food. It wouldn’t hurt to visit this place once in a while, but I have defiantly seen better service.

Typical crap-ass NYC location. Every table is dirty, staff forgets part of the order(cups), can’t speak clear enough to get order numbers out, confuses concepts with similar words(«nacho cheese» vs. «nachos & cheese»), and seems generally more interested in singing along to the radio than anything else. These people need to be replaced with robots.

I used to love kfc… but there is something about being able to see grease leak out from a box that kicks up a gag reflex. And worse is to see it painted on the wallpaper. There are cleaner kfcs than this one

This KFC/Taco Bell is the only food place that I have been that has consistently horrible service. The cooks and employees behind the register are definitely not hired for their customer service skills. The food is decent when you are craving KFC/taco bell and if there was another close choice for that type of food I wouldn’t ever go there again.

I frequent taco bell and this place is great because it is close and is open late. Prices are great and the service is fast. The only thing I dont like is that they have this white girl who works making tacos and she is really rude and nasty. She makes it seem like she is disarming a bomb, and if you ask her for sauce or something she shouts saying, «Im busy preparing food.» She should be fired.

This is a KFC /Taco Bell combo location. Seriously — This is the WORST service I have ever received at a Taco Bell… EVER! First of all the appearance of this establishment is TERRIBLE! There are not enough capital letters and exclamation points in the world to properly convey this point. The outside needed a good sweeping, or at least pick up the mounds of garbage I had to kick aside and hurdle over just to open the door. The windows are dirty and greasy looking. The inside of the store was the same deal — garbage everywhere: on the floor, on the tables, on the counters… It made my skin crawl just to be here. «Whatever, we will just eat and go…» I told myself. When I am doing some serious feening for a 5-layer vegetarian style burrito, I’ll be damned if I will let unsanitary conditions and dilapidation stop my prowess! We ordered our food at 9:00pm: 25-layer burritos with no meat, 17-layer burrito. There were two people at the«food bar» working on a previous order for(I timed it) 14 minutes to make one of those 5 $ boxes with 3 tacos or whatever it is. They continuously leave the counter with the food wide out in the open which scared me quite a bit about the sanitary conditions and edibility of the food. They FINALLY got to our food, again continuously left the counter… Six times! What for? I have no idea. Taking a look around, I saw two employees sitting in chairs with their head on the food counter sleeping on the other food bar(shudders) and another sitting on it texting someone. By the time we finally got our food, it was cold, cheese was un-melted, and the burrito was abnormally small and improperly wrapped with half the contents spilling out. Whatever… Suck it up and down the hatch it goes… We then discovered they made it incorrectly(they put something we said not to put in) and they gave us attitude. You would think if it took 24 minutes from order to table(we got food at 9:24pm, and placed order at 9:00pm according to receipt) you would at least get it correct! Okay no big deal, I know mistakes happen. When we brought this up they gave us a lot of blatant attitude! Are you friggin’ kiddin’ me? If you hate your job, fine — but don’t take it out on my gastrointestinal tract! Anyways… We ate… We left… The service was in fact SO bad I did their survey and wrote pretty much the same review. Maybe it will go somewhere and the owner will improve this location. This far from satisfied my appetite, but at least I will think twice before going to any Taco Bell for a while due to this experience.

BEWARE: I went to this place on October 31, 2012 and paid with my credit card. 7 days later, my credit card receives a fraudulent charge at this restaurant so I report my card as stolen and received a new one. On January 19, 2013, I go to this KFC again. I pay with my credit card that was previously stolen and 4 days later, I receive another fraudulent charge to my credit card. If it happened once, I can believed that I lost it elsewhere but since it happened twice, I have no other store to blame. PAYWITHCASH. On top of which, the food quality varies depending on who is behind the counter. Overall, I have received poorly made food but it satisfies my Taco Bell cravings.

The moment I walked into KFC, there was a dispute, between a customer and the cashier. When another employee tried to settle the situation, the customer had said out of frutration«Shes crazy!!», refering to the cashier. The second employee had told the customer, she was crazy. As the customer was grew more upset, Staci– the 3rd employee, repeatedly said«goodbye», in Russian, the customer’s supposed native language, while The customer was still expressing disgrace. When i approached the cashier with my order, I had to try 5 times to get her attention. When she put the first part into the register, she got distracted again, and I needed to try 3 more times for her attention. Every time i added to my ordered she got distracted, again. After i thought my toll with KFC was over, i take out my mashed potatos. It seems thats the container could not handle the heat, and the whole bottom fell through, with mashed totatos everywhere.

This might be hard to believe, but this is now the only location for Taco Bell within 5 miles of south Brooklyn. A sad fact that makes this Coney Island Ave. location very valuable to TB fans like myself. The new pacific shrimp Burrito is excellent, and my favorite burrito of theirs is the cheesy bean and rice, which is artery clogging perfection. The one huge problem with TB now is they have downsized everything, so a burrito is now almost half the size it used to be and still the same price. If you can get over that anger then you have to get your fill, unfortunately i have to travel miles just to get a taste. Be aware this spot is always overrun by kids who beg for free drinks, otherwise it’s a fine location.

Something really disturbing about a place when it’s door handles are greasier than the chicken they are serving. This is a KFC/Taco Bell combo(which is just what the public desperately needed) and I came here once due to a weak moment when I was going to grab some taco bell. I left immediately and did not order the food since the place inside was so filthy. I have not had any of this crap food since 2004 when I swore off all fast foods. Too much good Mexican food in Brooklyn to settle for this garbage.
