Holy Rotizzerie chicken! First time here and right as I walk in, I can see the chicken being rotated through the glass. I love anywhere that has a visual presentation of food being prepared-something about it just makes it so exciting. Although the girl that took my order look like she's seen a ghost, the ambiance of the place was quiet. The guy that brought the food read back the meal to make sure I was getting the correct order, which I liked. I got two dark meals, comes with a drinks and 4 sides. The chicken was absolutely delicious, crispy on the outside and well seasoned and juicy in the inside. The Mac n cheese and the elote corn wasn't my favorite since it tasted bland- no flavor in the elote street corn. The Mac tastes like it was poured out of a can into my plate. The mash and salad were better but nothing too extravagant. Chicken Only (Dark) Leg and Thigh: 220 kcal Sides: 212 calories - Elote street corn Calories: 100-150 Mash potatoes 20-100: House salad 308: (5 oz) Mac n cheese All together paid $21 ~ Pretty good deal if you just had a long day and did not want to cook knowing you don't have to give an arm and a leg. read more

Started in 1981, or so it says on the wall. Great rotisserie chicken. You can see the rotisserie from the dining area behind the glass with tons of little chickens rotating around. I got the half chicken, which is about the size of a Cornish game hen, fried okra, mashed potatoes and gravy. It was really finger licking good. I love this price and the price wasn't bad. I will be coming back again. read more

Cowboy Chicken - Half chicken with 2 sides and a roll - Southern Near Me - Carrollton, Texas

I've driven by this place but never stopped. I was in the mood for some chicken and boy am I glad I stopped. As soon as I entered the door I was greeted, staff seemed happy to be there. You could see the chicken being cooked next to the register. I ordered the 1/4 chicken with beans and coleslaw. They had many drink choices but wasn't thirsty & was taking it home so next time. Within a short time they had it ready. The chicken was cooked perfectly-a little messy to eat but expected that. The beans were very good and the coleslaw seemed to have jalapeños in it, had a little bit of a kick which was delicious but hadn't expected it. I will definitely be stopping by here again. read more

I had one of the most unprofessional customer service experiences I've had in years at this Cowboy Chicken. I stopped by around 8:45 PM (15 minutes before closing), and from the moment I walked in, the manager at the counter made it obvious that he did not want me there. When I greeted him, he replied with a very dismissive, "Well, I'm here." I apologized for coming in close to closing, which he completely ignored. I placed my order, attempted to pay with Apple Pay (thinking it had gone through), and stepped aside to wait--as the only customer in the restaurant. After about eight minutes, he called out across the room, "Miss McCoy, what are we doing here? I don't even have a payment from you," in an extremely rude and condescending tone. Instead of simply letting me know right away that the payment didn't go through, he waited, watched me stand there, and then spoke to me as if I were an inconvenience. I asked for a manager, and he told me he was the manager. That was the most disappointing part--this level of behavior coming from management. I left without completing the order because the disrespect was unnecessary and uncalled for. If the store does not want customers near closing time, then the hours should reflect that. I've been a loyal Cowboy Chicken customer for over two decades, but after this visit, I will not return to this location. I truly hope Cowboy Chicken Corporate sees this, because no customer should be treated this way. read more

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. read more

I needed to pick up dinner for 6 people & got their chicken meal for 6 for $61 with tax. What a great deal & it was SO much food! Everyone kept commenting that everything was so good. I ordered on the app & pick-up was super easy. PS I saw if you order on the app on Wednesday, you can get $5 off the 4 person family meal. read more

What a great place! 1st time I've been there in years! Walked in was greeted and my order was taken and filled by the manager who was very personable! Food was delicious! Great service! Wonderful food and reasonable in pricing! I definitely will be back! read more

A great staff of servers and MICHELLE is the sweetest, kindest, and most helpful person you'll ever meet. My family meets there once a month. I buy the dipping sauce in a bottle and take it home. The chicken is always tasty and tender. read more

The food was great and Michele at the front counter was just awesome and so friendly and helped us along with the rest of the wait staff to make sure we had everything we needed. She is awesome. read more

I had the 3 piece dark with all legs. My sides were twice backed potaters and Mac and cheese. The food is excellent for the price point. Chicken is delicious and is always hot and not dry. Staff is always on point at this location! read more

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! read more

There are a lot of lunch places along this stretch. What makes Cowboy Chicken stand out is great food, reasonable prices, and a good rewards program. This location does a great job of keeping up with the lunch rush and Michelle provides the friendliest, most energetic customer service that I've ever seen. Be sure to try the enchiladas and the salads - the menu is more diverse than you might think. read more

First time in.counter person patiently waited while we ordered our food.food came out hot and fresh.

The rotisserie chicken is always soooo delicious. I get all dark meat because I think it tastes better at Cowboy Chicken. The white meat seems to be on the drier side here. The smoked sweet potatoes are sooo good and need nothing on them! Peach cobbler.. scrumptious! Their corn fritters are the best... I can't get them anywhere else. They just aren't as good. BRING BACK THE CORN FRITTERS! read more

Love this location, every time I order, they don't disappoint. I showed up tonight not realizing that they closed at 9, put in a mobile order and they literally filled it right at 8:58p. Talk about great service. The young guy, I assume the manager he gives manager vibes, is always the one to bring my order out. He is very engaging, communicative and just brings good energy. I recommend this location 10/10. read more

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. read more

Cowboy Chicken - The chicken and brisket plate with Mac+cheese and Twice baked mashed potatoes - Southern Near Me - Carrollton, Texas

We ordered to-go, and the food was ready by the time we got there (less than 10 minutes). The chicken was juicy, the creamed spinach was great, the green beans and ranchero beans were good, as well. The only reason I am giving it a 4/5, is because they have sweet baked potatoes as an option in their nutritional info, as well as pictures on their website. However, they do not actually have sweet potatoes, which was a bummer. read more

I dine at this location quite often. The service is always great, but I've been having some issues with the food. The food is still tasty but chicken isn't roasted long enough. It lacks color more than often and I have to finish it off at home. read more

Cowboy Chicken is my staple. You can always trust you're getting quality food. But this time was the first time I ordered wings- AND HOT DAMN!!! The best wings I've had in a long time. I'm sick of going to restaurants who try to serve too much or haven't appreciated their one product. Cowboy roasts their wings then REALLY SEASONS THEM ... COATED!!! They were juicy, tasty, meaty, and amazing quality. I've found my new wing place! read more

Ordered 1/2 white plate w side of twice baked and green beans with a drink. It was almost $15. A little pricey for a quick lunch. Chicken was dry but flavorful. Potatoes were good. Green beans were great. Bread was doughy like undercooked. It was good but not great. read more

Cowboy Chicken - Southern Near Me - Carrollton, Texas

Stopped in another location years ago and enjoyed it. I was wondering if my memory was off, but it was not. Really good Texas rotisserie chicken. Their signature enchiladas are so good. The green sour cream sauce is fantastic. For the two sides I had green beans and the twice baked potatoes. Both were perfect. The green beans were just soft and crunchy enough at the same time. Perfectly seasoned. The twice baked were also perfect. More like a hashbrown casserole, but so good. If I lived here I'd be a regular. Great job! read more

Let me qualify this five star review by saying it really does matter what you order. Sometimes the rotisserie is just a little bit dry. But the chicken tenders are the best you'll find anywhere and their chicken enchiladas are just off the charts delicious. Their cookies are great too. read more

The chicken was delicious as were my two sides - ranchero bean and Mexican street corn. Service was fast and surroundings were comfortable l. The downside was the use of single serving dishes and plastic silverware. read more

Food was great. Manager or whatever the asshole was, likes to belittle employees in front of gusts....came in 5pm Tuesday

GREAT FOOD IS ONLY GOOD FOOD IF ITS NOT HOT! I have visited this place multiple times and found the food to be quite good. The staff is usually great, but the biggest issue is that the food is not served hot. I ordered through the app, and when I arrived, four staff members were in front of house, socializing. They greeted me quickly and informed me that my food would be out soon. I waited for five minutes and decided to eat at the table inside the restaurant. Fortunately I did because the food was not hot. If I had taken the food to go, it would have been cold by the time I reached home. Instead of multiple managers at the front, at least one should focus on food quality and execution. It would be great if they could take a moment to check the food's temperature with a thermometer to ensure that it is at least 130 degrees Fahrenheit when it comes out of the kitchen. Ideally, it should be 145 degrees Fahrenheit, but it was neither of those. A business that specializes in take-out for families and groups should have better systems in place to ensure that their food is served hot. read more

Well seasoned, huge portion-the chicken cracklings and slightly spicy sauce just took it up a notch and helped to quell my craving for French fries . Really good read more

3 starts only because of the portion size of the meals! Beautiful place with great customer service. They have a lunch special that comes with a quarter piece, 2 sides and a roll. When you check in on YELP you get a complimentary cobbler. Your choice of flavors, most popular ordered is the apple cobbler which did not disappoint. It was so amazing. Disappointment in the lunch special because it was the smallest quarter I have ever seen. Seasoned perfectly, it was just the size of the inside of my palm. The new naked drums they have are about $13.00 and are really small. Let still hungry but overall happy about the service. Cheers!!! read more

Busted this location between 5pm and 6pm to order takeout. The service was fast. I ordered Half Chicken along with a couple of sides, Spanish Rice, twice baked potaters and extra pickles . The chicken was a little on the salty side- someone over salted the brine‍. I wasn't a fan of the rice - it was a little to al dente for my liking. The twice baked potaters was the star - perfect amount of cheese and sour cream. The pickles are butter-bread flavored and oh my are they tasty. You have to try the pickles. Might just have a brisket sandwich loaded with pickles next time. read more

Bad start followed by excellent recovery effort by store manager. Food order placed on the Cowboy Chicken app was delivered 20 minutes late. The order was picked-up by driver early and had been sitting in the delivery driver's car for over 40 minutes while he was making other deliveries even though my house is only 5 minutes away. I called the store manager to let them know that I was not going to eat food that had been sitting in a car for over 40 minutes. The store manager said he would remake all the food and personally deliver himself. I appreciate Cowboy Chicken taking accountability for a delivery snafu and making things right! read more

I ordered the enchiladas for my husband and I. They were so spicy we could not eat them. They were swimming in about a gallon of sauce. We tried to dig the chicken out - which there was lots of tender chicken inside. The corn was also burn your mouth spicy. The beans were great. The rice too spicy. I ordered the half white chicken for my mom. It was tender but dry. The rolls were great. The green beans were tough. Peach cobbler wasn't even cooked. It was peaches with cake batter. Summary - we haven't been there in a long time and we are not likely to return any time soon. read more

WHAT A AWESOME FIND, this was not my intentions to eat here but the restaurant I was planning on trying was packed. Walking through the doors and seeing that giant oven with all the rotisserie chicken put a huge smile on me face it was a beautiful site. The menu is very straight to the point it's chicken and more chicken and more chicken but all cooked to perfection I had the feed 3-4 people rotisserie chicken with 3 sides for only 25 dollars! That's amazing and everything was absolutely delicious! I also tried the crispy chicken that was actually mini drumsticks and it was flavorful, crispy and perfect! I'm hooked! I will definitely be back very very soon I recommend all my protein enthusiast to try this great spot read more
