An Australian TikToker has gone viral after reviewing KFC’s first fine-dining experience and it may surprise you.
TikToker user Samantha Khater has given her fans an exclusive review on KFC’s first fine-dining experience – only available during the restaurant’s one-week pop-up in Australia.
Khater’s clip, which has gained over 1.6 million views, features an 11-course meal designed by the fast-food chain to allow customers to enjoy the fast food in an ambient environment.
KFC’s fine dining goes viral on TikTok
The video also shows customers being greeted with a glass of champagne, entering a room that featured chicken-shaped lighting fixtures, black tablecloths, and wine pairings for each course.
One course could be described as “supercharged” wings, served over a flaming bed of charcoal.
Others included popcorn chicken with gnocchi, gold-crusted drumstick, and a dish that required foodies to lick a sauce reincarnation of the chain’s founder, Colonel Sanders, off their plates.
The pop-up restaurant’s deserts look like something that would be served in a 5-star restaurant as diners were given the choice of a “chocolate mousse with popping candy” or “KFC chips with ice cream.”

It is unclear whether the fast-food chain will be bringing back the pop-up restaurant, as fans are divided over the idea of fine dining at KFC.
