    Chicken breast and fries
    Tomas H.

    I have Driven by here many times and wondered how it is. Well today I stopped and man I'm happy. Very good and hot chicken. Got 3 pieces 2 legs and a breast and fries and some Fried okra. The seasoning was good and everything was hot and fresh. I may pick this over Rudy's chicken for now on.

    Two of my lovely thighs!

    Chicken House has been a favorite for many years. I have a Popeye's and a Golden Chick within walking distance of me, but I can't be bothered with that nonsense. I make the 20 minute drive to Chicken House whenever I get that craving. The best chicken is when they first open but consistently good all day long, super crispy and nicely seasoned. Last time I was there I ordered ice tea. I really only drink unsweet tea but I really wanted something to drink and the only other options was sodas (or maybe water, I guess). Wow, this was the best sweet tea I have ever had. So strange but I will order it again.

    I've been curious about this place for some time, even when it was Brother's Chicken. Last night after happy hour I was feeling a little hungry. There aren't many drive-through options driving down Gaston, so I was prepared to make something at home. But then I saw the OPEN sign on the Chicken House so I made a quick turn to the drive-through. Ordering from the drive-through proved to be challenging, as the person taking my order didn't understand me, and I didn't understand him. I went ahead and pulled up to the window and ordered from a sweet lady. After taking my order, she asked me to pull around, which drives me nuts when there's no one behind me. But whatever. I ordered the chicken finger basket and it took forever for it to come out (pro-tip: call ahead). Finally home I enjoyed the chicken very much. The chicken was juicy and flavorful. The gravy was good, although it didn't taste homemade or anything, but that was okay with me. The two pieces of white bread were a nice addition as well as the fries. The fries were greasy, but they tasted gooOOOd. If I'm ever in a pinch again for fast food I'll remember Chicken House for a future visit, fo sho!

    Entrance to drive through is on the right side of the building (north side)

    Hot and delicious fried chicken at a great price! Super fast and friendly drive through service. Got the chicken dinner with 2 thighs for $5.25. Came with fries, 2 slices of bread, some pickles and pickled jalapeño. They even have a cheaper option to get chicken by the piece, which is what I'll do next time, cause the chicken is so good, that's all I need!

    Best chicken livers in Dallas area! Prices are so inexpensive compared to other chicken places and it tastes like my Mom's home recipe.

Over the years, They have added grilled items that are quite tasty, but Ima go for the fried anything along with mashies, baked beans, etc. The chicken and dumplings are heaven on earth anytime of the year. Prices are decent, considering the economy these days. If you dine in, there's staff that are happy to help you get your grub to the table, will make sure you have butter and honey for the fluffy buns, and smile no matter how busy it gets. Leaving a buck or 2 is not expected, but a nice gesture for their efforts. Blanca sez check'em out!

I swear he had our big table and an entire full section. Chicken Fried Bacon I give it a 3. I loved the taste but I like my bacon cooked all the way. Chicken Fried Chicken was moist and really good. I will give that a 4. The Black Eyed Peas Peas wore horrible. Black Eyed Peas needs to be slow cooked and butter needs to be added to the pot to make them creamy. Yeah I rate them a zero. The Brussel sprouts were the star. I don't know what they did to them but they had everyone wanting more. Yes they get a 5. Total rating 3.4 Try it for yourself you may like it.

It was cool inside with beer and wine bar service and pass trays featuring Tempura Shrimp, Caprese Salad Skewers and Swizzlers (bacon wrap jalapeño and chicken). All servers were great and plenty appetizers to go around. Dinner was uncomfortably hot as they opened the doors so those seated outside could be included in the program. I heard there was a nice evening breeze but it was stifling hot with no breeze indoors. Food though was fantastic. My starter was Arugula Salad with fresh strawberries Not your typical banquet options. I had the Shrimp Rigatoni other options were Chicken Fried Steak Flatiron Steak Frites Rice Crusted Salmon and Filet Mignon everyone at my table enjoyed their selections. Dessert was Strawberry Shortcake for me but the Chocolate Torte snd Carrot Cake looked delicious too. Table service was efficient and smooth. I did find a cool spot by the bar where I stood to listen to most of the program along with a few others. BTW I'm not from Texas so not use to the heat.

During my second visit, I tried the Bitter Lemon Soda, which was also very good--simple, refreshing, and without any overpowering flavors. I actually enjoyed The Bowen House so much that I went twice during my weekend trip to Dallas. It has an almost speakeasy-like atmosphere, with low lighting and a cozy, historic feel. It's also in a very walkable area, which made it easy to visit on foot. There is some parking available, although I would say it's somewhat limited. I don't think it would be the best spot for a very large group, but it would be perfect for a few friends getting together. I also appreciated that you can order a drink while waiting for a table or bar seating, which made the wait feel much more enjoyable. Overall, The Bowen House was one of my favorite places I visited while in Dallas. Between the atmosphere, welcoming service, and well-crafted drinks, it's definitely a place I would return to the next time I'm in town.
