    Finally got back to this location. We have eaten at their Frisco location several times in-between. Came here for free birthday loyalty club dessert. And we got 1/4 chicken with sides. Popular with the takeout crowd on weekday. Good meal and plenty of leftovers. See photo about upcoming 44th anniversary celebration and food specials.

    I saw their Famous Chicken Enchiladas online and just had to get some!

    I picked up a Togo yesterday, and noticed several parking spots for curbside. There is no way to check in or call, so I went inside. I doubt they ever serve curbside by the way they are set up. They didn't even acknowledge me inside, and surely would not care for anyone outside. There is no designated to-go counter and no one said "we'll be right with you." There were two tables eating and two customers ordering. Two staff members working, and I'm assuming the manager/expo on the line (The guy with the pink lips tattooed on his neck). My food sat on the counter, while I waited for the people in front of me to order. When I got my order, I asked the girl if the ranch was in there, and she says "you better check." Ok great, so I check the entire order. The salad had the ranch, but when I asked for the ranch with the kids meal, you'd think I asked for the crown jewels based on the glare I got from manager lips-neck. I then requested a side of mix cheese for the salad. He said it's going to be a charge. "Ok great how much?" "Fifty-Four cents." "Umm, ok." That took another 3-4 minutes. Then I saw that the salad had 3 red onions on it, and even if I liked onions on my salad, 3 diced onions would be pretty stingy. The 2 cherry tomatoes helped though. I haven't eaten here in a few years, but I did remember that their to-go enchilada packaging technique is really stupid. This time, the box was flipped on its side, and wrapped with plastic. Super ghetto, but whatever. Before I opened it, I could see the sauce was all over the outside of the box. What a bone-head way to pack them. When I got them out of the bag, along with my saucy arm, I saw 2 limp tortillas drowning in a cream sauce. I assume the kids chicken legs came from kid-sized chickens too; so authentic. The roll was so dry on the inside, it kind of looked like tight cobwebs. The grease on the fries was plentiful. No skimping there. I will take this as a $24 learning opportunity. I was a server for two decades, so I've seen my fair share of lousy service--but at least there was effort back then. If lips-neck guy is not the manager, the management better recognize he is a direct reflection of them and President/CEO Sean Kennedy. Cowboy Chickens need to step up their game, and take pride in what they serve. Customers have options, and they'll figure it out eventually--probably the hard way. Food is too pricey to waste on this kind of experience. And don't even get me started on the management's responses to negative reviews. Instead of addressing issues, they slap on a generic, "Sorry you didn't enjoy your visit! Hope you give us another shot!" It's like they're reading from a script written by someone with zero accountability. Don't even waste your management breath on this review. Thank you!

    This was my first visit. The staff was very friendly. The service was very fast. The rotisserie chicken was amazingly flavorful and tender. The roll was soft and delicious. The twice baked potato was delicious. The spinach dish was good. The peach cobbler was good.

    The chicken and brisket plate with Mac+cheese and Twice baked mashed potatoes

    I had planned to grab some udon next door but due to a point of sale issue stopping them from taking orders I ended stopping at cowboy chicken instead. The interior had a rustic, yet somewhat modern, wooden facade that seemed to invite me in and rotisserie chicken sounded like a good backup plan. I ended up ordering the brisket and chicken plate with the twice baked mashed potatoes and the Mac and cheese for around ~$17 before tip which seemed like a pretty good deal by BBQ standards; However, they don't have bbq in their name so I should have really compared value to a southern style restaurant instead and should have ordered with that in mind as well. The food looked quite good but was a pretty mixed bag overall. The chicken was juicy, the skin was quite crispy, and it was the standout of the plate. It was however under seasoned and lost most of its flavor once you got past the skin. The sides were pretty decent as well though not super flavorful either so neither option really stood out overall. The brisket on the other hand was chopped and greasy. I've been spoiled by years of Austin BBQ but chopped brisket really only works on a sandwiches for me so it wasn't worth the upcharge. My stomach didn't feel great after eating It from the pooling grease for a couple hours afterwards as well. I'd recommend just passing on it completely. It ended up dragging down whatever enjoyment I had from an otherwise pretty good meal. I think Cowboy Chicken should double down on their namesake as that was pretty good. I think in a world where I ordered better this could have been 3.5 rounded up to 4 stars. With what I ordered however and after my experience feeling a bit sick afterwards I doubt I'd give it another chance to test that theory.

    Want a "feel like being there" experience of enjoying Hong Kong style milk tea and French toast at…read morea cafe (茶餐廳)? The decor here is as much Hong Kong as it gets. And the food is authentic. Hot Hong Kong milk tea and French toast are my favorite breakfast items and that's exactly what I got. If I were in Hong Kong, I would get them in the morning. But I wouldn't mind having them any time of the day! The milk tea was great. I liked the aromatic, bold black tea. It was fairly creamy and smooth. The French toast was delicious also. Fried golden brown, it was toasty on the outside, and nutty, buttery (with peanut butter filling) on the inside. I liked the condensed milk drizzled on top, instead of syrup, which I normally use at home. They also have other Hong Kong style dishes, like the baked cutlet pork chop with rice, fish fillet in creamy white sauce, and iconic street foods like curry fish balls, radish, and pork rinds (yummy!) This place is fully decorated with so many Hong Kong street items, like the big wall pictures of busy, beautiful city views, signs of major streets, shop signs, etc. If you're not from Hong Kong, they may not mean too much to you. But if you are, they're invariably nostalgic. If you want a delightful experience of Hong Kong food and ambience, come give it a try.

    We ordered the green onion pork chop over rice, stir fried flat noodle with beef, salted lemon…read moresoda, Yuen Yeung, and tofu pudding, and everything was great. The green onion pork chop rice was flavorful and comforting. The pork chop was tender and well seasoned, and the scallion soy sauce soaked beautifully into the rice. Simple and satisfying, exactly what you want from a classic HK café dish. The standout was the stir fried flat noodle with beef. It came out piping hot with steam rising, and the texture was spot on. The noodles were perfectly chewy without being greasy or clumped together, and the beef was tender with that subtle smoky wok hei flavor. You can tell it was cooked fresh, and that heat and texture really made the dish shine. The salted lemon soda was bright and refreshing, while the Yuen Yeung was strong and smooth with that classic Hong Kong milk tea and coffee combo kick. The tofu pudding had an authentic Hong Kong flavor. Served warm with a light ginger sugar syrup, it was silky smooth, delicate, and not overly sweet, bringing back that nostalgic HK dessert shop vibe. If you're craving classic Hong Kong cha chaan teng comfort food, this place absolutely hits the spot. Prices are reasonable, portions are generous, and it feels like a true neighborhood spot. We will be back.

Only thing is the shoestring fries had no salt and the waffle fries were overly seasoned. If they could find a middle ground for both, I think the fries would be good. They also have a HH going on right now from Monday-Thursday 1/2 off soju & draft beers. Will definitely be coming back soon to try other things!
