Staff is very nice spoke to the owner Carlos tonight, if you haven’t tried Rocki Chicken in Carmichael definitely check it out. You will not be disappointed“

“Great chicken but even greater service! Shout out to Anthony with the most amazing customer I have ever experienced. He knows this menu from top to bottom, and as new customers he recited it in a very professional and friendly manner. Anthony has made a simple drive through into a very memorable and amazing experience!“

“My favorite chicken spot hands down. Gannon is an awesome employee who is very friendly and always does little extra things to help customers out which I greatly appreciate. The food tastes great and is one of the few chicken places that does not upset my stomach.“

“Great Food
I ate at the pizza place which was great food and great price! pizza was Awesome and fresh different from the regular pizza places. I suggest anyone who likes pizza to check this place out, i know i will come here again soon!“

“I had a great experience with KFC's customer service. The staff was friendly, welcoming, and handled my order quickly and accurately. They were patient, answered my questions with a smile, and made sure everything was correct before I left. The restaurant was clean, and the overall service made my visit enjoyable. Excellent customer service—I look forward to coming back!“

“I had an excellent experience at Vons Chicken Rancho Cordova. The chicken wings were absolutely delicious—perfectly prepared and full of flavor. The customer service was exceptional, attentive, and welcoming throughout my visit. I was also pleasantly surprised by their radish, which was remarkably fresh and complemented the meal beautifully. Highly recommended!“

“I’ve always loved Jollibee because it’s more than fried chicken—it’s a little taste of home. The juicy, crispy Chickenjoy, the familiar flavors, and that warm Filipino hospitality have always taken me straight down memory lane to the Philippines. 🇵🇭❤️ That’s why it’s disappointing to see the San Antonio location slowly lose what makes Jollibee special. Lately, the service feels disorganized and slow, the quality seems inconsistent, and that warm Filipino welcome and atmosphere seem to be disappearing. On my most recent visit, I even received only 5 pieces of chicken when I ordered 6. Jollibee shouldn’t feel like just another busy fast-food chain. The Filipino warmth, hospitality, pride, and quality are part of the brand—and just as important as the Chickenjoy. I’m sharing this not simply to complain, but because we love Jollibee and want this location to do better. Please bring back the quality, organization, and unmistakable Filipino spirit that made us fall in love with Jollibee in the first place. We want our Jollibee back. 🇵🇭🐝❤️“

“I came to the drive thru and they were very respectful they were patient and very responcful they made the food well with everything in it and they done it fast im happy with my order.“

“Amazing Food with exceptional customer service!“

“Amazing food and kind service! The environment is quiet and peaceful, making it a great place to relax and enjoy your meal. I highly recommend the crispy garlic and Yangnyum drumsticks—they were absolutely delicious! However, I would say the prices are pretty expensive, but considering it’s a small business, I’m happy to support!“

“Everything was wonderful as always“

“great food. Great service“

“Shout out to Elijah!!! We so appreciated his help tonight. Thank you!! Tonight my family and I used the app to pick up food in the drive thru. We had an email allowing us a free chicken sandwich when you use the app. We don't eat out often so this was a treat for us. My husband had already used the app, so this was his second time in the app to get the free sandwich with our order. When we picked up our food, two of the young workers couldn't help us with this promotion, so we spoke with the manager. She also said sorry we can't help you! We were at the window and received our order, but had to order another item as the chicken sandwich was going to be my husband dinner and we wouldn't receive it. While we were trying to get this order going another young man came up to the window to help us! He heard about the situation and honored the free Chicken sandwich promotion. Everyone was kind regardless of the situation. We love this location and because of Elijah, we left happy customers.“

“The angry fry’s is my go to with the medium heat 💯🔥🔥“

“Some type of app issue. It charged my card but didn't carry order to the merchant. They provided service in line of mishap. I told her if my payment doesn't clear tomorrow I will add i see funds $16.55 taken away f3om my credit card. Not sure why it not showing on their end.“

“First time going here, and the chicken was fantastic. The buns were grilled on the inside, which gave it a nice soft crunch. I got the medium to be safe and was very good. The spices on the chicken melt in your mouth. The staff were really friendly and helped me order as well. I'm definitely going to go back and try the hot next time!“

“Mariana and Aliyah always bring me so much joy when I come in even on my hard days I never am turning down a big box meal with honey and bbq I love all the employees and they always treat me with care everyone deserves a $30 raise much love 💞“

“I love it some times when I don’t have money they give it for me free and it was so good. The food is the most tasty, Halal and healthy. The staff are so friendly and kind. I recommend you this place when you want to choose as your favorite restaurant.“

“very friendly service and my food got to me still hot. I will return“

“June 26 2026 I frequent the location. Today they gave me fried chicken nugget instead of grilled. I specifically asked for grilled because I'm on a kidney friendly diet. The fries are high potassium but I watch my portion on them. I think I might just eat inside because you really can't confirm your order doing drive thru. I like the dragon pineapple syrup.“

“Im a very picky eater but this food was actually really good! The chicken was very crispy when I received it and the biscuits were warm and buttery! The employees were polite and provided excellent customer service. My order was accurate, and the wait time was very short. Great food, great service, and great value. Highly recommend!“

“I come for the gas but I stay for the chicken this place sells a lot of fried chicken. It’s delicious juicy. It’s better than like nine of those chicken restaurants. I go to this gas station and if you pay attention when you go there, everybody’s buying the chicken. it’s amazing. Good job you guys.“

“Good news/lesser news. The good news is this new restaurant has seriously great wings and a great variety at that. The lesser news is just ordering an order of 10 wings, I was quoted 10 to 15 minutes. But I was pleased when the order came out after only about five minutes.“

“I went on two separate occasions and the chicken tenders were Krunchy, the potato wedges were fresh, and the biscuits were fluffy!
The women cooking the food is very nice and seems to take a lot of pride in making sure the food is consistently good!“

“Absolutely outstanding experience with Vermantu and her entire crew. From the moment I walked in, everything ran like a well-oiled machine—quick, efficient, and handled with real professionalism. Vermantu clearly leads by example and should 100% be the manager if she isn’t already. The team works seamlessly together, delivering fast service without cutting corners. You can tell there’s pride behind what they do. Easily a five-star experience, and I’ll be coming back because of it. Thank you all!“

“thanks u!! check it out!!!!💯🤣🤗🥰👏👌“

“Yesterday I stopped by the KFC at 3551 Bradshaw Rd and bought 16 pieces, but they forgot to add a small fries to my order. I called the store today and Antonio's assistant manager answered. He told me to come to the store and he would replace it. When I got to the store, he replaced it and gave me a chocolate cake. I really liked Antonio's service.“

“Delicious, fresh, hot chicken with tasty sides to match. The place is clean, the customer service is excellent, and there’s a bit of indoor seating available. It also has a small convenience store inside, which is a nice bonus. It’s easy to miss if you’re not looking for it, I’ve lived in Del Paso Heights for years and only recently discovered it. It’s right across from Grocery Outlet, and a great perk is that you can use your food card to buy Krispy Krunchy Chicken here.“

“​The food here is really good, with large portions and great flavor. The atmosphere is nice and calm with good music playing. Ordering was super easy. It took about 14 minutes to get our 4 meals, which felt a little slow for a quick bite, but the delicious taste definitely made up for the short wait!“

“I've stopped here several times, and the staff have always been friendly, respectful, and welcoming. One thing I especially appreciate is that they've let me use the restroom when I needed to, even if I wasn't making a purchase. They were never weird, rude, or judgmental about it—they just treated me with kindness and understanding. It's such a simple thing, but it can make a big difference when you're out and about. The restaurant is clean, the employees are courteous, and the atmosphere is always pleasant. Thank you for consistently showing compassion and great customer service! I hate the smell tho and the food no offense lol.“

“I went around 6pm and got a leg and thigh and biscuit. The biscuit was hot, soft, buttery, flaky, sugary, fluffy diabesity (diabetes and obesity in one!) deliciousness and the chicken was hot, juicy, salty, tender, crunchy, krispy diabesity so definitely worth the $6 I paid! I look forward to eating again! It is in a gas station so takeout only but this is some seriously good chicken!“

“Kiki’s fries are 🔥🔥🔥 and the chicken is 💣💣💣. I came in from out of town and needed a great lunch and that is exactly what I got!“

“There’s something deeply comforting about opening a KFC box after a long, exhausting day. The smell alone feels like a warm reset. It’s not just food—it’s a small moment where everything slows down. The crispy coating, the softness inside, the familiar taste—it all comes together in a way that feels reliable when nothing else is. Sometimes you don’t need perfection, just something that feels steady and familiar.“

“I like this place because of their food. It's always fresh and hot. And they are always friendly. They even have the mugs back if we want to drink our sodas in the glass mugs. They also can make the floats in the mugs if we ask them.

Parking: It is always clean and it is very spacious.“

“They are very friendly here, however I usually say the strips (the only thing chicken I usually get from Popeyes) at this location aren’t as tasty. I recently seen that this location is a certified training location! So it makes sense to me if the taste was a little off. Not trying to take away from this restaurant though I’m just very picky- I like to go where I know. I get everything else from them here though. Great job guys.“

“Juwan has impeccable customer service, handle confusion with ordering well, and maintained neutral and informative.while we had to wait he offered my husband his desert while we pulled to the front for the rest of the meal. I have never had anyone think of that.💯💯💯💯on Experience“

“Best Popeyes on the planet! Thank you April for packing our order just right and thank you for singing happy birthday to my husband. You have the voice of an 😇!!!“

“I placed a mobile order and went through the drive‑thru to pick it up. The employee at the window let me know it wasn’t ready yet and kindly asked me to wait a few minutes in the parking lot. I just wanted to point out that she was very friendly and provided great customer service. She even threw in something extra for the wait. I wish I had her name, but since it was an online order, it wasn’t listed on the receipt.“

“I love their spicy chicken sandwich with a cup of 6 jalapenos or they're four piece spicy chicken with mashed potatoes 😋“

“just right,not salty,recommend for seniors,hoping for seniors discount thank you“

“I couldn’t get app to work so I drove in with family . I neeee a lot of chicken and strips. Manager was on it. He suggested a couple of orders for me to mix and match maximizing chicken value . Got my attention. He brought order to car , told me my order in box and off I went . I ordered almost everything on the menu and was not disappointed by any means. Hooked it up, family happy and full. Great experience , will eat again. 💯👍🏾“
