I came to this Chicken Express for a quick meal to have in my hotel room. This location is shared with a service station. At first it looks sketchy but the parking lot is clean and the place appears to be well maintained. The interior has a spacious dining area and is clean. I ordered three pieces of chicken and a 9-piece gizzards. They were out of dark meat chicken so I settled for white meat. It took a few minutes for them to cook up the gizzards and the staff is overall friendly. I brought the food back to my hotel room. The chicken stayed hot and the pieces were generous. The gizzards, however, were smaller pieces than what I have encountered at other Chicken Express locations. Overall I had a decent meal that meet expectations. In sum, this Chicken Express location is a good place to grab a fast food meal. read more

Chicken Express - 3-piece white meat chicken - Three pieces of fried chicken with a crispy, golden-brown coating and a bread roll are placed inside a white paper takeout box. The chicken appears to be seasoned and battered, with some crumbs visible in the box. The bread roll is smooth and slightly shiny. The box is open, revealing the food inside, and the background is a dark surface. - American Near Me - Amarillo, Texas

Rude asf ... wouldn't let me fill my water bottle when I'd just filled my tank at their gas station. Said they had to charge for water

Love the spicy chicken strips!! Normally they're pretty fast at the drive-through (if you've been to Whataburger's drive through, you'll appreciate what I'm saying) and it's always service with a smile! My only criticism is their gravy. It either needs some zipping up or perhaps start offering a brown gravy option. I've eaten inside a few times and it's always clean and tidy inside which is comforting. Nice ambiance. read more

I love chicken express morning crew the best fresh food there turning it around. Good job

I got the 4 piece and they shorted me a tender. They also took a long time to complete my order.

Walked in and was greeted by the sweetest crew today around 130pm! Talked a bit ate... made me feel like a homey mom and pap restaurant. This establishment is connected to a gas station with clean bathrooms. The cashier Tarra was so friendly too. We were just passing through from Vegas on our way to Dallas. Chicken was perfect. Corn nuggets and fries were hot and crispy! Yall, you have got to dip the tenders in their Sweet Baby Ray's Honey Hot Sauce. Mmmmmmmmmmmmmm! read more

Nothing to say. Bad................. Gross.............. Rude!!!! Hard burnt bland..... read more

AVOID THIS LOCATION!! I wish I could give zero stars. I should've left when I saw people bailing out of the drive-thru line before I got to the window. Waited 30 MINUTES for fish meal. Sides were wrong, no hush puppies were in the box... when I asked about it they told me it would be another 3 Minutes. SERIOUSLY???? I would've left also, but I had already paid. The potatoes were AWFUL!! Grainy, watered down mush... GROSS! Rachel at the window looked high as a kite. In the mean time people are bailing out of the line behind me. This place has to be losing a crap ton of money with all the people leaving before getting their food due to the wait. It is AWFUL!! Do NOT go there. read more

Food was alright but we got to sit in the dining room and watch what appeared to be an off duty employee with her dog sitting in the dining room to while the employees took turns petting and playing with it and then returning straight back to work. No hand washing or anything... read more

I was pleasantly surprised. I didn't know what to expect. I think I had heard from someone that Chicken Express wasn't that great. I decided to take a chance because it was late and I hadn't eaten dinner yet and I didn't want a dinner that was a big deal in a restaurant. A lot of places were closed by the time I started looking for a place to eat. I'm staying in a motel about a mile away from here. I zoomed over pretty quickly and walked in. I was the only customer. I looked over the menu and ordered a three-piece dinner. I didn't think to specify all dark meat but it's probably just as well because the white meat was excellent, very juicy and tender. My main objection to white meat is that it tends to be dry but I like it as well as the next person if it's moist. The biscuit was a complete fail. By the time I even saw it was there and it gotten completely smashed and crumbled by the food on top of it. The pickle slices were okay. They had good flavor but were pretty oily and I had a hard time taking bites out of them without having to gnaw through them. I never heard of tough pickles before. The breading was sort of falling off of them but that's probably because they were moist. The flavor was fine. Someone else said their food tasted like old oil but I didn't pick up any of that flavor even though it was nearly closing time. As for the chicken, I picked up the wing first and was surprised how plump and meaty it was. I decided to try the white meat next and found it to be delicious, moist and tender. The mashed potatoes and gravy were also a pleasant surprise. The texture was good and so was the flavor. The gravy was especially good. Years ago KFC had good mashed potatoes and gravy but they have cheapened them over the years so they barely resemble potatoes. Next time I might order more gravy because it was good and I ran out too fast. I like my gravy peppery and that's how this was. I probably only ate about half my food and the rest I can eat for lunch tomorrow or the next day. The dinner was under $9 even with the tax. That was for a three piece dinner with two sides and a biscuit. The servers were neither unpleasant nor neglectful but neither were they friendly and attentive. Not that you need much in a fast food place but it's always nice when someone checks in with you and asks if you're happy with your meal. Even when I went out of my way to mention how good it was I got a very lackluster response. I'm one of those customers that likes to call out a cheerful goodbye and thank you when I leave a place and it's nice when you get a response. Theirs was more obligatory then sincere. I didn't read about how good the sweet tea was until after I was gone so I'll have to try that the next time. I would definitely go back. read more

We were literally the only people in the drive thru @9:10pm when the dining room was closed for covid. Had to keep asking if we could place our order and kept being told to hold on. Manager should do a periodic late drive thru checks. Place is garbage, just close the place at 9 if that's when y'all want to stop serving food read more

fast food delivery, service is amazing, workers are very kind and social some of the best chicken I've had in awhile

I'm usually very satisfied with my experience here. Today though, I got home with two family sides of corn nuggets, that were less than halfway full. I got the quantity that usually comes in one family side. It's frustrating to get home and realize you've been ripped off. read more

Chicken Express - Family Side of corn nuggets - American Near Me - Amarillo, Texas

Chicken was good,,, had to wait 20 minutes actually almost 30, they got my chicken ready, then I had to wait for the rolls. I get it , it was dinner time. But customer service is rotten there. No" thank you for waiting " etc. She gave me my food, I thanked her and she mumbled something...I know it's hard, no help, etc etc. But be nice! I spend hard earned money to be treated like crap. I guess it's the new normal read more

It's currently 9:19 PM. The place is supposed to close at 10:00 PM. It is currently closed even though it's supposed to be open for another 40 minutes. Because of this, I have been denied the inferior service that I've read about in other reviews. read more

Just like my cafeteria lady used to make it. I love chicken tenders, those are my fast food weaknesses. Reminds me of KFC without the pzazz and the sides, because KFC serves small nugget bites like these and as well as large tenders. Much of it is not a sight seen. Just regular food. thanks for the stop, this was mainly when we were traveling and we mildly explored Texas off of summer of 2016. read more

Chicken Express - Our order of chicken express 1/7.:17!!!! - American Near Me - Amarillo, Texas

Was passing through and was in need of a fried chicken fix. Was totally happy to see that they had Chicken Gizzards on the menu (not alot of places in Colorado still serve them). The Gizzards were cooked to ordered and tasted great. Staff was really friendly and I had no issues with them. read more

First off we waited 20 mins for our food and it wasnt even hot at all..the chicken was dry and had no flavor just overall a bad experience for us coming from California to bad food the quality was not ok at all....ill never ever try this ever again read more

Don't know why they put corn on the cob as a side dish when neither this store or the 1 on Tascosa Blvd ever have a y after 7 PM--they close a 10. Just can't seem to prepare for the last 3 hrs of the day. NOTE IT ON THE MENU, ... PLEASE. Chickens good. Service almost always sux at the W. I40 store near the mall. Manager brought my order. I asked for green beans since they r out of corn. SURPRISE, ... NO GREEN BEANS! Great management. Ok so I ask for dipping sauce for my 20 piece family order. She puts 3 containers of sauce on the counter. Now I'm no math wizard. I spent a good 1/2 second of brain power checking the weather & plotting my route home & processing the fried grease in this place & said "works out to a little over 6 1/3 strips per container." She looks at me like I'm the one that skipped out of school after 6th grade and said "huh," I said the math isn't that tough. She added 2 more sauces. Great we're down to 4 strips/sauce. I need to find a chicken house that can do math. Gotta head home. read more

The Chicken Express Restaurants in Amarillo are the worse run in the State!!!! We eat in these restaurants all over the state and they are always well run everywhere except Amarillo! The franchise owner in Amarillo must have a don't care attitude because they are always out of whatever you might want off the menu! Why have fish on the menu if you can NEVER get it. They are always run by kids who do not give a damn if the order is right or not! This will be my last trip to any Chicken Express in Amarillo!!!! The franchise owner should pay more attention to how their restaurants are run! This is not just a one trip experience! We continue to try to trade with these restaurants but I am done!! Never again will we do business with the Chicken Express in Amarillo! read more

Two words: SWEET TEA! Don't go for the chicken (which looks really bad). But they sell the tea by the gallon so stock up!

The service was so fast and the chicken was good! The poppers were spicy, the best! We were in a rush and the food came out in perfect time, definitely recommend! read more

Our family stopped here on our way through Las Vegas (end destination Dallas) and we thought the chicken was delicious. The crust is crispy and the chicken is very moist. It is very affordable price. The chicken comes with buttermilk sauce, gravy, biscuit or a roll. I would recommend it. We filled up our truck with diesel, had a bathroom stop and a yummy meal. My 7 year old said mmmmmm yummy. He is picky. read more

Drive thru servel very slow. Sat in drive thru for about 10 to 15 before getting food.

The food was good but my order was wrong. And the staff didn't seem to care just ended up buying what i wanted. The location on tascosa is much better service and food seems better. read more

The food is okay, Not worth going out of my way for. The staff there is very unprofessional. It's like they only hire hood rats with no manners. The dining area was clean and I loved the sweet tea, Other than that it was a complete fail. If I ever go there again it would only be for the tea! read more
