“I have been going to KFCs since they started and they have been around for at least 20 years +. And I love the menus. The chicken is outstanding and I love the biskits and the chocolate chip cookies. Prices are reasonable to. I’m disabled now so I’m going to have to get someone to go and use the drive in to pick up my food. I live right down the street at the Senior Tower West building at Plainfield Avenue and W. 7th Street. We are right here at the corner. It’s so easy to get there. It’s the best spot for that KFC cause it’s right on the corner and it’s right in a busy section in that area.“

“I miss my country so much because it’s really hard to find good Peruvian food outside of Peru, but this little restaurant have it!
I really love their chicken is the closest to the real “Pollo a la brasa” you will find here in NJ. They also have delicious homemade food which brings me back to my home in Peru.
I absolutely recommend it, go and try it, you will love it.
PD: If you ask delivery, call them to be sure they send everything. It happens to me that something was missing, so now I prefer to eat there or go pick up the food. It’s so good so it worth.“

“Basic takeout experience. I wish they had better vegetable options; my kids and I hate coleslaw, so we have to make a veggie side in order to have a well rounded meal.

There's no seating inside, which is fine because we were bringing it to family, but I wish they had a drive-thru window so I wouldn't have to unbuckle my kids every time I pick up food there.“

“The owner and her beautiful children were one of the biggest highlights of my trip to Newark recently to see the Devils home opener. Talk to her about her incredible journey making this dream turn to reality. Fiercely inspiring. Sensational chicken wings and mozzarella sticks. She’s graceful, humble, polite, an excellent listener, friendly, first rate service, above and beyond, hidden gem, and has impeccable tastes in music. Do yourself a big favor and make this a weekly stop whenever you hit the mall. You won’t regret it. Say hello to her family and leave her a tip if you can.“

“I used a $6.99 coupon for a 2 PC, chicken boxed meal. It came with a small drink, biscuit, fries, and 2 small pieces of chicken, a wing and something they called chicken breast. I mentioned to the person that took my order that I never saw a leg bone in chicken breast before. He said he doesn't eat chicken. Everything tasted very good! Free refills from the self served soft drink machine. The people are pleasant!

Parking: It's located in a small strip mall. Parking is subject to how busy the area is. I went around 3pm on a Wednesday. It wasn't bad finding a parking spot.“
