Taco Bell
Taco Bell may be one of the best-known Mexican fast-food chains but that doesn’t mean it is good. The restaurant is very often given bad rankings and criticized for its mediocre food. Most people give Taco Bell a low rating because it has very high prices, lackluster fillings, and small sizes.
Panda Express
If you are looking for quick, Asian-style food, you may have stopped at Panda Express once or twice. Chances are you were disappointed. Lots of people find that many menu items are extremely unhealthy, like the Beijing Beef which contains 26 grams of fat.
Dominos
This fast-food pizza chain is one of the worst places to go for your favorite Italian dish. In fact, a study showed that 64% of reviewers gave this fast-food chain only one star. The biggest complaint was delivery delays and sometimes not even getting the pizza delivered at all! Domino’s restaurants are typically clean, but that doesn’t make up for super slow delivery.
Pizza Hut
Pizza Hut is another low-ranking pizza chain. It scores very low on most consumer food lists year after year. One study had 66% of reviewers giving the restaurant just one star. Save your money and get your pizza somewhere else!
McDonald's
While McDonald’s may be one of the largest fast-food chains in the world, that doesn’t make it good. In fact, it is one of the lowest-ranked restaurants when it comes to taste and quality.
The burgers are known to be paper thin but have super high prices. The McRib and Filet-O-Fish also received similarly bad reviews. One user even said the company had "Lost its mind".
Burger King
This is another burger giant that you should drive right past while on your quest for good food. With over 13,000 restaurants, you’d think Burger King would taste a little better than it does. The company has had many questionable issues over the years, including accidentally serving horse meat in 2013. No, thank you!
KFC
Fried chicken is the name of the game at KFC, but they haven’t quite gotten the best reviews over the years. People find this fast food chain's staff confused, uncaring, and lacking in hygiene. There are many nicer places to get better-quality fried chicken that you can try!
Sbarro
You may turn to Sbarro when you want a New York-style pizza, but you should really look somewhere else. Sbarro ranked 65 out of 100 for freshness and overall value, which is a super-low score.
On top of that, the company has filed for bankruptcy, so they are having business issues in addition to flavor issues. Not a good combination!
Little Caesars
Little Caesars claims to have high-quality ingredients and very fresh food, but this advertising has proved to be false. The pizza chain often uses very cheap cheese just to cut costs—cheese is one of the main things on a pizza! The restaurant struggles to serve good meals, which may be why it is closing shops one by one.
Arby's
Arby's is known for its roast beef sandwiches. However, most people find the sandwiches to be of poor quality and made with "mystery meat." On top of that, service is notoriously slow and unfriendly. It doesn't sound like a recipe for success!
Chick-Fil-A
Many people love Chick-fil-A, but the fast-food chain may not be as good as it seems. Our biggest pet peeve is that the restaurants are always closed on Sundays. We know that everyone needs a day off, but it can be hard to support this restaurant when it isn't open on one of the busiest fast-food days. It's just annoying.
Sonic
The appeal of Sonic is the curbside delivery that the restaurant is famous for. However, that service often comes with a long wait. Anyone who has been to a Sonic knows that the service is anything but quick. Be prepared to wait quite a long time and also get ready for some cold food, something lots of Reddit users complain about. Just another thing Sonic is known for!
Panera Bread
Panera Bread used to be a very classy fast-food joint. With gorgeous pastries and freshly baked foods, it was one of the best restaurants out there. However, Panera's quality has been going down as rapidly as its prices are going up.
We blame the chain's rapid expansion on the failing quality. But, no matter the reason, you may want to stay away from Panera for a while.
Quiznos
Many people think of Quizno's as being a place to grab a healthy sandwich. However, the meat alternatives that the sandwich shop offers are actually pretty bad for you. They are extremely high in sodium and loaded with calories. You may think you are ordering something nutritious, but you are really ordering pure salt on a high-calorie bun. Don't let all those nice Quizno's ads fool you!
Chipotle
According to a survey, Chipotle is commonly a target for complaints, with about 63% of reviewers giving them just one star. Slow service is the biggest issue diners have with this restaurant. Fast food is supposed to be quick, not painfully slow!
WhataBurger
Ever since Whataburger was sold to a company based out of Chicago, customers say they have seen a decline in quality. The once delicious food has turned "trashy" according to some customers. Many seem to notice a serious change in the food and it isn't good.
