Rupinder is excellent at her job. She is patient, helpful and a problem solver. There was a mixup with my doordash order and she handled the matter with such perfection. Keep up the amazing work 😊

Really rude older woman working the till today at 4:50pm, Aug 24, 2024. I asked a really simple question, whats the difference between the differrent sandwich box combos cause I saw about 3 on the board. She told me to look at the pictures. So as i tried to look to see the differences she told me to move out of the way so she could deal with other customers. Where if she would have just helped me in the first place I could have ordered there and then. I just left. It was so rude. It wasnt busy at all. There was one other person waiting who either wasnt ready cause they told me to go in front of them or they had already ordered so not sure what the rush was. Sorry, not everyone comes to KFC everyday and is an expert on your menu and can see a board thats 10ft away. Like im sorry was it really that hard to have help me out for 20 seconds in a dead food court? Jesus.

I order online from this branch every week, and I'm always happy with the service. Gurpreet and Ankit at the front are always welcoming and make sure my order is ready on time. Great customer service – they definitely deserve 5 stars!

All staff at KFC branch at 700 lawrence avenue west are great. Gurpreet, Claire,Ankit.Rupinder and sofuay. for years i eat from this branch yet i stay in NorthYork m2r3n7 you can imagine. They have a very good customer care service , empathetic, very tolerant and they love what they do. God bless them and i wish they reward them for their great job, they are the ambassadors of KFC in my opinion.

Waited 10-15 minutes due to they didn’t have any pieces ready, we got our food and drove out as soon as my son started eating the chicken he was complaining that it taste weird when I check I had to post a review it was disgusting especially supposedly they’re freshly fried also it did made my son feel sick

November 3, 2022

We ordered 2 - 3 piece chicken combos & paid a little over $10 EXTRA to upgrade to white meat no wings. They must have cut the pieces in half because the pieces they sent us were tiny. I understand the costs have gone up but if we're spending almost $20 for a 3 piece combo at least provide us with the 3 pieces we paid for.

May 8, 2022

We stayed on the line over 45 minutes at a time one of the customer service was on a call...then with no communication customers started to move to the nearest Asian Gourmet. Only then they said their point of machine does not run well. I stayed longer just because my grandkids like the chicken popcorn and KFC burgers. The employee's could still have dealt with orders to we were online for a long time manually.

This was quite the experience... The lady who took my order was I guess nice enough I guess theyre understaffed.... she kept on running to the back looking lost herself... The guy in the back looked completely confused about everything that was going on. My order took forever or at least it felt like forever. The third guy came out and confirmed that Im still waiting for my order for the past 10 minutes and said hell give me extra fries which of course he did not. And ask me to wait 2 more minutes until theyre done getting out my order which only had French fries and chicken nuggets... I mean how hard is that to make or warm up because I know they warm them up... I will not be going to that KFC again unless I have a serious craving. And to whomever is the owner of that franchise please hire capable people who are not confused about what theyre supposed to Do.

Do not come to this location if you have a coupon. They will not accept it. This KFC inside the mall is a complete waste of time. What a letdown. I guess they dont want a new customer.

A standard mall food court KFC. This one is not combined with Taco Bell. I was here on Sun 13-Aug-2023 for lunch. Good competent service, good ol familiar KFC taste. I would love to see this get expanded to include the Taco Bell menu some day!

December 22, 2023

I got a twister and there was no lettuce no tomato just a chicken tender and regular mayo not twister sauce... and they forgot to put fries in my bag. Disappointing

Poor service, employee coughing while serving customers not waring any mask it took 15 mins to get a 2 peice chicken with frys. While unber eats take away is was being served when I was first I had to wait 15 mins unacceptable! Just to get a small meal for child . Terrible service, I could have been served way sooner if the guy would stop chatting and server his customers!

December 22, 2023

It was horrible Chicken, it smelled like burnt fat from a long time ago and it also smelled ugly. I told the lady and she only gave me one extra piece but it was disgusting. I returned all your chicken

KFC is making the chicken pieces smaller like chicken thighs. They cut into 2 pieces as well the other pieces and not just that they increase the price.

We paid $80, and received chicken that literally tasted like burnt rubber and toxic chemicals. As a result, we sincerely decided this would be the last time we would ever eat at any KFC ever again.

I wish that I could give zero stars. Worst experience Ive ever had. Stood at the front of the lineup for 20 minutes while ONE girl worked the front, running around like a chicken with its head cut off. She only focused on filling skipthedishes and Uber orders the whole time, instead of taking my order. Pick up drivers were coming in long after me and being given preferential treatment. Having their orders filled long after I got there. They were even given free drinks from this girl! But when it came time to FINALLY take my order, she tells me there no more chicken, and that is too close to closing. I was there AN HOUR before closing! She didnt offer me any kind of deal (or free drink) for the wait, but she does to skipthedishes drivers...?

I ordered a meal. all the chicken pcs were old and smelled. I took one pc and asked them to change it. They were so rude. They told me i always ask to change. In front of other customer they insulted me and made false claims. It was my first time there. I will never go to this place again. I almost hit the guy, but felt sorry for them.

Waited at the counter for 10 mins before someone showed up. Server got my order wrong. Asked for hot sauce and they said they didnt have any (the Yorkdale location does have hot sauce). Ordered a 4 PC box and the chicken tasted off.

December 22, 2022

They said i had to wait for 45 minutes AFTER I paid for my food. And I actually timed them, but they took 1 hour, with the excuse that their fryer is not operational. I mean this is at 5pm. They served other people who didnt order chicken products within minutes, such as popcorn chicken, according to the counter girl, and just saw 2 employees leaving, getting out of thier uniforms within that 1 hour, signing off duty. Note it took 1 hour until i got my order of a toonie tuessay special

December 22, 2022

Picked up something quickly for dinner and there were barely any fries in the box, chicken was terrible, and the 7Up tasted like 90% water. Waste of money. Dont eat here.

KFC ain t what it used to be. ESPECIALLY at this location. Asked for a 3 piece combo, white meat got a 1/4 of a breast and 2 small little wings, tiny fries. Asked for gravy and had to go back to get it because they he forgot to put it in there bag. When I complained about where s the white he says that is what is considered white. I said this is just skin and bones he said talk to the manager it went back and forth between us. The person at the counter was rude, the service is terrible, the chicken is baby sized. Basically paid $15.35 for a kids meal consisting of skin and bones. If you have a craving for KFC avoid this location. Would have given them a 0 star if I could.

There is a big language barrier between the employees and customers..no social distance in the kitchen..

December 22, 2021

No hygienic condition applies to this location! Very dirty staff they touch everything and then they touch your food, they touch their face and clean their sweat all over their face and then pack your food, very unprofessional. During pandemic everything must be contactless but in this store everything is contacted!

December 22, 2021

The Indian girl and Indian guy working there are very rude! The girl is scratching herself with bare hand and then serving the food. very disgusting! Public health must get involved with this store.

December 22, 2021

Don t waste ur time. It s closed even if google says it s open!

December 22, 2021

they took literally 41 minutes to prepare my 2 person order (they were not busy). when i finally received it there was stuff missing. poutine also had way too much gravy

We had the Tuesday Special and it just past 8pm store closing at 10PM but the chicken they gave us are tasting burnt and too oily. ... my kids even too excited when we got home but disappointed when they tasted it... But the crew seems nice but still the chicken is burnt...

December 22, 2021

Staff can be rude and with no hospitality. Be mindful, they will not offer service even when it s a minute difference before they re close for the day.

December 22, 2021

The service is horribly slow. Comes off chaotic and unorganized at times. Often looks like staff are standing around, not doing anything. When you get your food it still ends up tasting like it should at least. Maybe the staff just needs more training and/or experience. Been here a number of times and never fails though, slow service, unreasonably slow.

December 22, 2021

the cant even get the order right and its only one sandwich and they took 20 min to make it.

December 22, 2021

The staff here is very rude and has no manners at all. The management should take actions in this kinds of situations. We pay our food and business is good because of the people buying it. We were very respectful when we ordered but the girl on the counter kept giving us attitude and throwing our foods.

What is wrong with this management. They scammed me with a soft drink that was filled with alot of water ending up tasted like sparkling water. Not very good. Ill report to the municipal if you dont make changes. And they served me a chicken that was cooked many days ago because i can tell that the chicken was very dry. My stomach was even starting to hurt after i ate there dirty food.
