Taco Bell may be one of the best-known Mexican fast-food chains but that doesn’t mean it is good. The restaurant is constantly given bad rankings and criticized for its mediocre food. The company is known for sacrificing freshness and quality to cut costs. They also often run out of menu items leaving patrons disappointed and angry.

If you are looking for quick, Asian-style food, you may have stopped at Panda Express once or twice. Chances are you were disappointed. Panda Express serves low-quality food with not much flavor. While their service is okay, the food is not worth the money.

This fast-food pizza chain is one of the worst places to go for your favorite Italian dish. In fact, many people don’t even consider Domino’s pizza to be “real” pizza. Instead, it is just soft bread with tangy, odd-tasting sauce. Domino’s restaurants are typically clean but that doesn’t make up for the bad-tasting food.

Pizza Hut is another low-ranking pizza chain that should be avoided. It scores very low on all most consumer food lists year after year. Save your money and get your pizza somewhere else!

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 contain some questionable ingredients including filler ingredients and the so-called “pink slime” that is found in the meat. We don’t even want to know what that is!

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. However, the burgers are bland, high priced, and often take a while to make. It isn’t so fast after all.

Agree with Dominos

Has really gone downhill

Biscuits and gravy may sound delicious but Church’s Chicken is not making them well. The biscuits are often used day after day rather than made fresh and the gravy is overly salty. The customers have spoken and this is a fast food restaurant to skip.

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 to be lacking in quality, value, and cleanliness. There are many places to get better quality fried chicken that you can try!

Sbarro©Provided by Spatula Desserts
You may turn to Sbarro when you want a New York-style pizza but you should really look somewhere else. Sbarro pizzas are often made hours in advance so they are not very fresh. On top of that, the company has filed for bankruptcy so they are having business issues on top of flavor issues. Not a good combination!

Little Caesars claims to have high-quality ingredients and very fresh food but this advertising has proved to be false. The restaurant struggles to serve good meals which may be why they are starting to close shops one by one.

Arby's is known for its roast beef sandwiches. However, most people find the sandwiches to be dry, tasteless, and gross. The fries are described as salty and soggy. On top of that, service is notoriously slow and unfriendly. Doesn't sound like a recipe for success!

Chick-Fil-A©photo credit: Shutterstock
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 they aren't open on one of the busiest fast-food days. It's just annoying.

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. Just another thing Sonic is known for!

Panera Bread©Photo credit: Shutterstock
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 their 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.

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!
