Someone might try to lock your car and demand $200 unless you can show receipts from nearby stores. This person asked me to transfer money to his personal account, which made me question the legality of his actions. As a foreigner, I wasn’t sure if this is common here, but his behavior was very aggressive. Instead of paying him, I recommend using that $200 on something more worthwhile.

I bought food from the restaurant, then quickly went to Rite Aid to buy medicine, which only took about five minutes. When I returned, my car had been booted. I’m disappointed in the KFC owner for allowing this to happen to customers. My food was still in the car, and I never even got to eat it. It feels like they’re treating booting cars as a business. When you visit, you’ll often see at least five cars booted at the same time. I hope a lawyer steps in to take action against those responsible because they are unfairly profiting from customers. To the KFC owner: please respect your customers and stop this practice—it’s damaging to your business. Unless, of course, you’re benefiting from the money collected through booting cars!

Unfortunately, this location isn’t the best option for dining. While visiting someone in the hospital, I had a very unpleasant experience at KFC. We usually enjoy KFC, but this particular branch fell short. I plan to contact someone about my experience.

It seemed like the food had been refried after sitting out for a while. This was the worst meal I’ve ever had; it completely spoiled our lunch, and we ended up feeling like we wasted our money.

The parking ticket was incredibly frustrating, and I was disappointed with the food as well. The owner really needs to invest in higher-quality ingredients and stop cutting corners. On a positive note, the staff was polite. I would recommend checking out Chicken Magician on the corner instead. It's unfortunate that I had this experience. It feels like the owner is more interested in making extra money by booting cars and hiring off-duty cops from Newark, which isn't a solid business strategy.
