    I've never been to a Chicken Express. Thought I would pop in and check out what they are all about. There's a Randall's grocery store on one side, and a gas station on the other side. Chicken Express lot is private. I noticed it was pretty dark too. I went inside and looked over their menu. I got a 2 piece with a biscuit. He asked what I wanted as far as the chicken goes. I asked for 2 thighs. As I looked around at the condiments. I say, sauce and honey packets and a few other things. I grabbed a honey packed for my biscuit. My order was ready rather quickly. I found a seat and started in. The biscuit is small. But my whole meal was pretty inexpensive, I wasn't expecting a large biscuit. It was fine enough for me at the moment. I squeezed out some of the honey on one side. Not bad with honey. It was good without honey too. The 2 chicken thighs were really good. Warm, juicy, and the skin part was crunchy with a light fried taste. Meal was pretty decent, inexpensive, and filling.

    Two piece fish add-on. Huge catfish fillets, cooked perfectly. Sweet little corn hush puppies.

    I'm not certain if it had just been a really long time since I'd visited Chicken Express, but I think their food has really improved. I remember thinking it was just a-okay before. Now, if I feel like a yummy, greasy indulgent, cheat meal, Chicken Express pops to the top of the list. Their chicken comes out piping hot and super crispy. Absolutely adore their dinner rolls. If getting chicken, adding pickled jalapenos is a must for me. I recently ordered fried catfish á la carte. Received two massive! fillets (too much food honestly) and tasty little sweet corn hush puppies. For a fast food chain, I am super impressed. And the prices are great. Get ya some yard bird and mud cats! ;)

    I'm from California and my boyfriend took me here to try it out! Below is my honest review - Food - 3/5 . It was okay for me. I got the spicy chicken tenders with mashed potatoes, gravy, corn nuggets and sweet tea. It wasn't bad but it wasn't tasty for me. I would still prefer Chick Fil A and Raising Canes. Service - 4/5. The server / cashier was nice and accommodating but wasn't enthusiastic Bathroom - 4/5 Ambiance - 9/14/24 on a Saturday at around noon ish and it wasn't busy at all. Chicken Express is a one and done for me and there is nothing wrong with that. Glad I was able to try it out and had a good experience overall!

    Great chicken and I love their fried okra. But it's way overpriced for fast food chicken.

They make what I consider the best burgers anywhere. The beef tastes clean and natural, and you can tell it's quality Angus meat. My go-to order is the bacon double cheeseburger with French fries and a vanilla malt, and it's consistently delicious every single time. The vanilla malt is especially good -- thick, creamy, and the perfect complement to the burger and fries. One of the sweetest touches is that they offer little dog treats. My dog gets so excited whenever he realizes we're heading to P. Terry's -- it's become our little tradition, and I love that they think about their furry customers too. The burgers are always made just right, the fries are hot and fresh, and the overall experience never fails. It's rare to find a place that delivers this level of consistency. This is absolutely one of my favorite burgers of all time, and I highly recommend this location to anyone craving a truly great, natural-tasting burger.

I've eaten at my fair share of TBs over the years. Like other FF chains, you pretty much know what to expect from Taco "Hell" in terms of food quality, service, and price. Typically meh...we're not talking 5-star dining here after all! However, after living in the area for over two years and visiting this Lakeway TB about a dozen times or so, I can honestly say "It's as good as it gets!" [taking into account the fast food factor]. Never an incorrect order, always super, super friendly employees (maybe that's why a few others have stated the staff are "weird" because they're not used to seeing smiling faces at joints like TB - lol - alien), and they take care in preparing the grub correctly. Icing: location was just completely remodeled; not that I ever thought it needed any TLC in the first place. So, snaps for Lakeway Taco Bell! I might feel bad about eating the food afterward, but am always a happy camper when making the trek home to munch and crunch in front of the dumb-box. :D There's a reason why they stay open late...and thanks for the spiffy wetnap and mints included in the bag...very much needed about that time!

There were workers talking very loudly apparently complaining about a customer. In my opinion that time could have been better spent cleaning tables! There were literally cup tops and food under two of the tables. There were also two employees out for a smoke break. The place was not busy but no excuse for not using the time to clean the tables and floor. Do better Taco Bell we like eating here.

    Hatfield Hamburgers in Lakeway was absolutely outstanding. Everything about this place was…read morewonderful and exactly what a great burger experience should be. I ordered a double meat, double cheese burger with pickles, mayonnaise, and bacon, and it was phenomenal. The bacon was cooked perfectly--crispy, not greasy at all, mild, and full of flavor. The meat was tender, juicy, and incredibly succulent, with an amazing taste. Every ingredient came together perfectly. The milkshake was completely different from anything I've had before. It was whipped and very fluffy--light, smooth, and nothing like the heavy milkshakes you get at fast-food restaurants. It was delicious and paired perfectly with the burger. After being kicked out of All Star Burger simply for voicing a concern (as mentioned in my previous reviews), please read my review, it will blow your mind, this experience was incredibly refreshing. Hatfield Hamburgers is far beyond what All Star would ever dream of being, both in food quality and overall customer experience. If you're in Lakeway and want an exceptional burger and a truly unique milkshake, this is the place. I will definitely be back. Hatfield Burgets has drive in which is a plus.

They also have other sandwich options, kids meals, and different kinds sides. I got the bacon burger how it comes and a side of fries. Let me tell you, the bacon burger was amazing!!! Perfectly grilled, double patty, with grilled onions, bacon, and cheese. I loved the seasoning that they put on the fries! They have 3 special sauces... their special sauce (to me was kind of a mix of ketchup/mayo/thousand island type of vibe), one that is more of a honey mustard feel, and the other is a more peppered version of the first one. My favorite was the peppered one. It was great to dip fries in and I also topped my burger with that too! They have beer and wine on tap. They have an outside, fenced in play set for kids, with outdoor seating. What's more to love? Great burger place, with drinks, and a place for your kids to play? Can't beat it!!

I use the app frequently and rarely have issues with my orders. On the rare occasion something is missed, they fix it quickly without hassle. Parking can be tight near the door during lunch rush since it shares the lot with Starbucks, but I have never had trouble finding a spot within reasonable walking distance. It is a minor inconvenience at worst. The dining area is small and gets busy at lunch, but that is to be expected for a popular sandwich spot in this area.
