This location seems somewhat unclean but I think its mainly because it's in an area of Penn station where the homeless tend to congregate. The staff do a decent yet inconsistent job of cleaning tables after they are used (sometimes its all clean, sometimes all filthy). This particular location is sometimes out of a lot but on this visit they thankfully had everything my group wanted, including the new Nashville hot chicken. It's clearly got nothing on a real restaurant like Peaches Hot House but was still more interesting than normal KFC.
1 star. The cashier didn't seem to understand English. No matter how many times we repeated what we wanted, she just didn't get it. At least they have pictures on the menu, so you can point as the last resort. I saw another upset customer nearby frowning because they made him wait for a long time, only to serve him the wrong thing. They gave the wrong item to him for free, while they made the correct item and made him wait AGAIN. Tip: you might want to bring a long stick here so you can point at the correct food items on the menu.
Located by the Amtrak waiting area, in kind of a dingy interior combining KFC, Taco Bell on one counter, Pizza Hut, and Nathan's and Tim Hortons on another, this is clearly your run of the mill low brow depressing fast food experience. The seating area is often not cleaned but behind the counter, there is an almost sterile type of environment which lends to an "A" DOH rating.
Now, knowing my food is safe, this is generic mass market fried chicken. Nothing too special about it. The new Nashville Hot Chicken did have a nice kick to it and they put in a valiant effort… Still nothing to write home about but it satisfies that craving. The wedges are nicely crispy. The mashed potatoes taste like it comes from a bag, mashed to all hell, goopy and perfectly fine for what it is.
Fast and convenient, and not much of anything else, it's a decent choice in Penn Station.
