I’ve tried this place twice, once dining in and once for takeout. The dine in experience was definitely better. The first time I had the chicken sandwich which I really enjoyed (unfortunately I don’t have any pictures).
The second time I ordered takeout and tried the chicken wrap, two pieces of fried chicken, and popcorn chicken. Overall everything was okay but the fried chicken pieces were extremely oily and looked very dark almost as if they had been fried multiple times (except for the red spots from the spicy seasoning: I ordered them spicy and they definitely delivered, which I appreciated).
Bonus points for being halal.

As someone who visits almost every Friday, I can confidently say this place delivers on flavor. Their cod burgers, cheeseburgers, and wraps are all great, but the fried chicken is the real standout and definitely a must-try.
The only reason I’m not giving 5 stars is because the 5-piece mixed chicken combo feels a bit overpriced. Portion sizes can be inconsistent, and sometimes the smaller pieces don’t feel worth the price.
I’d recommend going with the 3-piece mixed chicken combo instead for the best value. If you can handle the heat, I recommend getting the super spicy option.

I tried the 98k in Pittsburgh and loved it. I was surprised to know there was also a 98k in State College but I have never tried it before it was closed. I found the reopened 98k on DoorDash the other day and ordered it right away. However what I got was the worst fried chicken I have ever had. Super insipid, very dry on the outside, weirdly soft in the inside without juice as if the meat has been kept frozen forever with ton of STPP in it. Can frequent customers tell me if the reopened 98k the same as it was? Was my experience an outlier that only happens when the store has lots of stocked chicken to get rid of at the beginning of reopening and skilled staff are away during Winter? Shall I order from it again?

How can I describe this well? It tastes so good! As an international student from Asia, I find the flavors very comforting because they remind me of fast food restaurants back home. It’s also really affordable, and I would say it tastes amazing because it’s just like the food from where I come from. Honestly, it’s way better than all the burgers at American fast-food chains!

The restaurant was delightful. I ordered a 5-piece chicken meal, but it was more than I could finish. Next time, I’ll opt for the 3-piece chicken instead. The taste was excellent, and I found it even better than KFC.

As someone who lived in China for over 20 years, I often miss the unique menu options at Chinese KFCs, which differ quite a bit from those in the US. So, I was excited to find this place on Google and planned a visit.
My wife and I ordered the couple’s combo set for $24 plus tax and tip, which included two burgers, two hot wings, two “Orleans” roasted wings, and a bag of popcorn chicken. We also ordered a bag of fries for our two-year-old for an additional $6.
I was pleased to find that the food tasted very close to what I remember from Chinese KFCs. The chicken was well-seasoned, though a bit dry inside—I enjoyed it, but my wife prefers it juicier. The popcorn chicken was crispy, though I think it could use a bit more salt and pepper.
The fries also tasted like I remembered. A little backstory: KFC fries in China haven’t changed much, so they tend to get soggy quickly. In contrast, KFC fries in the US improved after 2018, so there’s a difference.
Overall, I enjoyed the food and look forward to coming back to try more items on the menu!

I had a delicious spicy chicken sandwich and onion rings at 98k Fried Chicken & Sandwich. It was tasty.

I used to love this place when they done chicken breast sandwiches. Chicken thigh is no bueno. Bring back the breast.

I used to like this spot. Will never return again. Ordered takeout for myself. Waited 30mins then went to pick it up. Was rudely told by employees, “we don’t have your order, and kitchen is closed.” I’ll never ever spend another dime at this establishment. You should fire all current staff members before something worse happens.

Me and my son tried this place last week. The chicken was so crispy and delicious. He had wings and I had a chicken sandwich and fries combo. Both were delicious. We also tried the jumbo shrimp and they were yummy as well. Definitely would eat here again. Very clean establishment and food was made to order. Service was great!
