Haven’t had it in years. It was just ok back then. We have one about 5 minutes away but never go there. Much better choices in the area. Our 40 year old son tells us that it’s pretty good though.
KFC is fine. I'm just kind of over chicken. Growing up in the 1960's and early 1970's we ate a lot of chicken because money was tight and chicken was cheap.
But to be honest, KFC used to have a far better menu than they do now. When I am in Texas I go to KFC because at the KFC in the town my FIL lived in, they still sell fried chicken livers which I like. They don't sell livers here, and even Cracker Barrell dropped chicken liver from it's menu.
KFC has been terrible since some new owners took control. Food is wildly inconsistent from one store the next. Some are good but others are greasy. They have lost control of their quality/consistency between various franchises and seem to be run by some big company that knows nothing about good food.
Not the greatest but I would rate them better than Zaxby's, Chick Fil A, Bojangles, Raising Cain's, Slim Chickens, Wing Stop, and church's just to name a few competitors.
I'm about an hour from the birthplace of KFC (never been to that one though). Once every couple of months I'll get a craving for it. I won't go out of my way for it, but if it's convenient, I might stop by.
It's only okay but I like Popeyes a lot better. Inflation has killed the thrill of fast food for me, though, and I clutch my chest at everything--from Taco Bell bean burritos (over $2!) to the price of fried chicken (no more $5 boxes). It's convenient but no longer worth the squeeze.
A case of food poisoning after eating at a KFC in CA on the first day of vacation turned me off of them. That was 28 years ago and I haven't been near one since.

I'm about 1.5 hours from there. I've been once, didn't find the restaurant to be anything to write home about but it was neat tot see the memorabilia and such. There was nothing special on the menu
In the small town I grew up in, KFC was one of the "nicer" restaurants when I was a kid and it was honestly very good. When I visit my parents, it's still good at that location.
I moved as an adult and the ones in my area now and not great at all. We have Lee's though and its very good.
