Ignore the caprese salad , that was home made and has nothing to do with this post lol

I have a couple of employees who have been bragging about Henderson chicken for a couple of years now . They were always comparing Henderson to both Rudy's chicken and hall's chicken, both of which I am also huge fans of . And I finally, got my hands on some and I have been stuck on it and craving it regularly, every since . One thing I'd like to say to give an idea of their chicken is they are in the middle of Rudy's chicken and halls chicken, where as Rudy's chicken is overly seasoned, halls isn't seasoned at all, but Hendersons chicken is seasoned to perfection. My kids said they have the best chicken strips in the DFW , and we'll continue to test their opinions as we come across other places . Now, It very important that you understand that location plays a huge factor in your experience. Personally, I love the Lancaster location not including the overwhelming level of anxiety that I get for them being so freaking tiny and having so many people standing around outside and inside of the restaurant, but because the Lancaster location workers are always so friendly , welcoming , I'm good spirits and the food is always hot, fresh and always good. Now I've read so many reviews regarding the drive thru locations in Desoto , and I can say my experience the couple of times I've gone have always been similar to the majority of the people's reviews. The desoto location, the workers are RUDE, UNPROFESSIONAL, GHETTO, IMPATIENT AND I can list a number of other unpleasant words to describe them. I exaggerate none when I tell you, I've gone before and was approached at the intercom with "what you want "??? And as I'm telling/listing to the lady what I want she would continue to interrupt me each time with asking " is that it"? Like I really wanted to snap and address her about her unprofessional behavior and rushing me as if I wasn't doing them a favor and aiding to their business with my hard earned money, but I also know better then to be aggressive with people handling your food. I will admit that her tone was different and changed when I got to the window , she even complimented me on my hairstyle. Or ??? maybe the lady on the intercom and the lady at the window are two different people??. Either way, they are always rude for no reason. And I only still go to that Desoto Location when I really want some Henderson chicken but I don't feel like getting out of my car and confronting my anxiety. My five stars is for the recipe it's self , all locations that I've gone to the food is always good and hot . but my 5 stars, are also for the great hospitality/customer service at the location in Lancaster.

I love this place! No joke, I'm a huge fan of chicken! It's the thighs for me each and every time! Chicken is hot, fresh, and sizzling! Let's not forget extra crunchy!!! You can never go wrong here! Not gonna lie, I ate all this by myself! There's no sharing here, get your own basket!!!!

Chicken Wings

favorite chicken in dallas and especially this location. I usually get the wings. wife gets some tenders. the fries aren't the worlds best but it's seasoned perfectly without being too much. crispy. good. best chicken. and stuff.

The restaurant wasn't very busy but we waited for nearly an hour for our food. I'm assuming the wait time was due to the employees taking turns going in and out standing around outside smoking. They did appear to wash or sanitize their hands but they apparently for what we ordered because it was completely wrong. However the food they served us was good but wish it would've been what we ordered. Probably wait a while before going back there again or at least go on a different day and time.

Good ole chicken shack!

If you're hungry and want some hot, delicious, and reasonably priced chicken this is the place for you! I grew up on Henderson's chicken as a child since my grandmother lived in South Dallas and it's still the same. This was my first visit to this location in particular and like all of the rest, the customer service was great and the food excellent. Both my husband and I got a 3 piece white(2 wings and a breast) that came with peppers, fries, bread, and pickles for around $10. The breast was really juicy and not dry and the wings were heaven as always. There is one right up the street on loop 12 that is good but this one is really good. Stop in TODAY for some good ole hot Henderson's chicken. Yum!

Old dried up chicken.

We got Cowboy Chicken to go, and I was really impressed. A half chicken, twice baked potatoes, and…read morea tomato & cucumber salad made for a great meal. The chicken was juicy and tasty, the salad was fresh and crisp, and while I prefer skins on my twice baked potatoes this was still nice to eat. It's about 14$ for a half chicken combo, which is too expensive to be considered a steal, but considering one could easily spend that much on a fast food combo, this a way nicer offering.

Solid spot for rotisserie chicken and sides. This has been my staples since I moved to Dallas. I…read moreordered a family meal for 4 which costs $40 not including tax. It comes with chicken already cut, 3 deluxe sides, dessert with a choice of peach cobbler or banana pudding and choice of rolls, no rolls or chips and salsa. I got mac, green beans, mashed potatoes and gravy and banana pudding. Chicken - you cant go wrong. Your white meat will definitely be on the drier side for sure. Definitely ask for their hot sauce and bbq sauce. And if you're able to add brisket for $7 addtl it's so good!! Mac and Cheese - its a solid option and my go to when I order here Green beans - this is my first time ordering this here. I do live the texture as I do not enjoy soggy green beans. It's perfectly blanched but it lacks severely in seasoning and is extremely water. Every bite felt like oz of water. Mashed potatoes - a bit dry and chalky but I can doctor that at home The family meal is a great value and def take advantage!! Service was good. I placed a scheduled order and I was late so it was already ready on arrival! Parking is a bit crazy in this lot as fyi but you'll find something!
