The Worst Fast Food Restaurants In America
1. Sbarro
The Consumer Reports’ Grade: 65/100
Sbarro, which specializes in New York-style pizza, placed very low on this year’s list because of its low food quality and freshness. As a result, the company filed for bankruptcy earlier this year – the second time it has done so in about three years.
2. KFC

The Consumer Reports’ Grade: 71/100
Originally opened in 1960, Church’s Chicken is famous for its fried chicken, french fries, biscuits, and jalapenos. It has more than 1,600 locations internationally.
4. McDonald’s
The Consumer Reports’ Grade: 71/100
McDonald’s sells Americans over 1,500 of its burgers each minute, claiming that over 100 percent of its meat are 100% USDA-inspected, contains no preservatives, fillers, extenders, or so-called pink slime. But none of this prevents readers of Consumer Reports from judging its food quality to be among the worst.
5. Burger King
The Consumer Reports’ Grade: 71/100
Another burger restaurant chain ranked among the worst, with mediocre food quality and freshness, and poor value for money for its meals. Burger King, which introduced a gay pride Whopper, operates about 13,000 storefronts throughout the country.
6. CiCi’s Pizza
The Consumer Reports’ Grade: 72/100
CiCi’s Pizza, which began in 1980 in Plano, Texas, now has approximately 500 restaurants in the U.S., each with around 13 employees. The business was rated poorly for its food quality and for its restaurant cleanliness, but received high marks for the friendliness of its staff and the swiftness of its service.

The Consumer Reports’ Grade: 73/100
Pizza Hut, which is widely regarded as the world’s most popular pizza chain, was started by brothers in 1960 in Kansas. Now a part of Yum! Brands, Pizza Hut has approximately 6,000 restaurants in the U.S.
8. Domino’s
The Consumer Reports’ Grade: 73/100
Domino’s is among the worst fast-food eateries in the world. Domino’s quality, price, and speed of service were greatly lacking, but the managers’ client service rating was higher for the degree of friendliness shown.

The Consumer Reports’ Grade: 73/100
Taco Bell, well-known for its Mexican food, was ranked the lowest-ranked Mexican fast food restaurant in the country. Currently, however, it is creating menu items for breakfast and lunch in the restaurant’s breakfast market.
11. Panda Express

Panda Express is the only Asian restaurant on this list, and the only substantial issue with its food is not its quality or freshness, but its extremely overpriced dishes. Meanwhile, the quality of its services was rated somewhat above par.
