Kennedy Fried Chicken

Still excellent and professional service!!! If you have not been been to Kennedy yet then what are you waiting for???

Extreme version of junk/​unhealthy food —
(five stars if that’s what you like)
Yeay:
— open late, really late, 4/​5am late
— big selection — a lot of variety
— relatively clean
Ehhh:
— the cheeseteak was okay (mind you i was hungry)
— chicken nuggets — not chicken (that weird chicken like substance that isnt really meat, that you would find in chicken nuggets in McDonalds…)
— doesn’t look healthy
Unlike Mike M., who might’ve been starving on a long NJ Turnpike journey from Philly, I wasn’t impressed w/​the food… at all. but it’s just not what i like. This may be a great choice for people who love unhealthy/​junk food, and if that is the case, read it as five stars.

I was on a journey through New Jersey with a friend yesterday and we attempted to stop for lunch at that den of horrors rest stop before Exit 7A. Obviously, because it was actually a warm day outside, the rest stop was overflowing with humanity. Because we didn’t want to wait 45 minutes for Roy Rogers or Quiznos, we decided to roll the dice and eat at some random place off the turnpike. We ended up at Kennedy Fried Chicken, somewhere off exit 10 in what we speculated to be Perth Amboy. The restaurant was very clean inside. Nobody else was in there at the time. I was amazed by their ability to offer 52 different combo meals. I decided to get a chicken cheesesteak and I must say, it was absolutely delicious, perhaps the best I ever had. They threw in some ketchup, mayo, onions, and peppers… it almost tasted like a salsa when it all came together. The chicken was juicy and the good white meat stuff. The cheese was oozing but just the right amount. I’m not sure what else to say about this place. The service was fast and the cashier was nice. I’m pretty sure we’ll never go back, but that’s for entirely different reasons, unrelated to the quality of the Kennedy Fried Chicken, The Other KFC.
