Houston's Hot Chicken The menu is a chicken lover's dream, and the Chicken Sandwich with fries was really good. The slaw on the sandwich was --creamy, crunchy, and a perfect cool sweet counterpoint to the salty chicken. The bun, too, was incredibly soft, and did not crumble. The Lemon Pepper Strip that came with the Combo was equally impressive. The seasoning on the strips was exceptional, delivering a zesty and savory punch that was memorable. My wife's Hot Three Strip Combo also was good with the chicken cooked and sauced to perfection. Beyond the food, the vibe of the restaurant was welcoming. The service was quick and efficient, and the restaurant's interior, with its illuminated granite counters and vibrant mural, added to the overall positive atmosphere. While the food and ambiance were great, there was one minor hiccup. A cashier's habit of saying "huh?" after every sentence made for a slightly frustrating ordering process, requiring repetition that felt unnecessary. However, this small detail didn't overshadow the fantastic meal. With its exceptional food, quick service, and cool interior, this Houston's Hot Chicken location is a definite must-try for anyone loving Texas Hot Chicken.

Chicken 10 pc Nugget Meal Mac & Cheese

Yummmmyyyy! The food is very flavorful and spiced perfectly. The service was quick. The atmosphere is very welcoming and quiet.

10 piece 10 pc Nugget Meal, medium- should've gone with spicy, but still good!

I took the kids here for lunch and was impressed with the friendly staff! I like the spicy nuggets, but think the chicken would have been juicier if I got the tenders. I also should have gone up a spice level from medium to spicy. But it was all still good and came with a large portion of coleslaw which was great with the fries! It all came with a side of sauce that had some kick to it. I really liked the art work, created a great ambiance!

The chicken here is pretty good, i had the spicy tenders and they weren't as spicy as expected. I did have one tender with houston we have a problem rub. Omg it was hot, like miserable hot for a hood 10 minutes. The staff warned againagainst it, but i signed my waiver and went for it. Staff was great, and the restaurant itself is very relaxed and they keep the place pretty darn clean.

Houston we have a problem chicken tender.

So it is my birthday and we are on our way to Vegas to celebrate but had to stop to see about this crazy hot chicken. So the warning they give before you sign a waiver to even order the "Houston we have a problem" rub. If you have a heart attack, internal bleeding or even death. I told my husband as he was signing the waiver, you better pray that you are ok. If anything happens, you are in big trouble. He did the challenge and was able to take 3 bites. I had 3 mild tenders and my son had the medium rub chicken sandwich. I enjoy the country music and relaxed atmosphere. The staff is so friendly and go out of their way to make it a wonderful experience. Thank you for the great meal. We wil definitely be back.

2 Tender Meal (Best Value)

This was my first time at Houston TX Hot Chicken. It was good, but it wasn't amazing. I ordered the mild chicken tenders and they were truly mild. I should've ordered the medium ones for a bit of a kick. If you're into really juicy pickles then you definitely need to try them from here. The service was quick and easy. The store looks small on the outside but there's plenty of seating once you walk in. I wouldn't be opposed to coming here again and ordering a spicier flavor, but it's not a place that I'd go out of my way for.

Finally made it home and tried the food. Very delicious. I will definitely be taking two steps down on the spice. My high school kids have also stopped by after school and they loved it.

Honestly, this place is not good. Best thing was the beer.. fries are hella hard with little to no potato.. prob never coming back..
Angel I.

Yikes. This place is not good. I'm sorry, truly the fries were way too hard, and dried up, seemed like there was barely any potato actually in it... best thing was the beer, very mid place in my opinion. Sorry, staff were cool tho

Good place to eat for chicken. Great price and services was fantastic. Food was really good and hot. Beware of spicy it is hot

No sauce, no slaw paid extra too, pickles wwre slimey
Alessio B.

Great service but I ordered for extra sauce and extra slaw on the side and slaw and sauce already comes with it (no sauce and no slaw inside item) this was for pickup, so I paid for extra sides for nothing, and the pickles were slimey and light green. I also noticed less fries with the change of packaging, I miss the square box they used to come in

*Loaded Fries
Heidi L.

Ok, so we went to go check this place out because we have been wanting to and it just so happened that after an appointment it was before the dinner rush and we remembered so to Houston Hot Chicken we went. The employees were friendly and it was very clean. We ordered a classic chicken sandwich, a loaded fries and a 3 piece tender in medium because we all like hot. I ordered a cucumber watermelon lemonade which was so good! Our food came out quickly and gave off a very nice first impression. We dove in and the ingredients all tasted really fresh which was a plus however the chicken for all 3 dishes had absolutely no flavor at all. Usually medium is pretty decent spice level but there was nothing. I'm not sure if it was just an off day and because of how nice everything else was we will probably give it another shot soon but ultimately it was disappointing this trip and the flavor didn't live up to our expectations at all. Fries were crispy, pickles were fresh and crunchy, sauce was good, chicken was cooked well just missed the mark on the flavor. Hopefully next time it will be better, and may just have to turn up the heat on level of spice.

Tenders combo in spicy
Lydia V.

Popped in the other day to get my grub on with some hot chicken. Houston TX hot chicken is pretty good, they are definitely not skimping on the chicken. Their fries are always fresh! I had the tenders combo and fries in spicy. It was fresh and delicious, the only thing that is not consistent about the food is that sometimes when you order spicy it's not at all and other times, it is way too spicy, which was the case this last time I visited. So I guess it depends on who's ever in the kitchen and what mood they may be in! (LOL) My son had his usual favorite, which is the chicken sandwich that comes with the tender and fries. He also ordered an extra tender on the side. The pickles at HTHC are so delicious. Sometimes I order a side of them! If you ask for extra pickles, the restaurant charges you a $1.00,, or you can buy a side for $2.99. The staff is always friendly, and the service is fast. The person who took our order at the front counter, was so sweet. His shift ended while we were still enjoying our dinner, and he stopped to wish us a good evening and that he hoped we were enjoying the food! The restaurant is always clean and I really like the red vibe in there plus the music. Keep up the good work! Enjoy!

Christian music in the background waa my favorite! I am so glad my husband decided on this place…read morefor lunch today! Wowsers. The food was so delicious. I thought I was back in New Orleans. The flavors and service were fantastic! They had great lunch specials. And they also offer daily specials. Our waitress Jayden was super friendly, helpful & great mannerism. I wanted to try everything on the menu but I'd rather come back and order a different mea everytime. Such a great place for lunch. Highly recommend the catfish too. And I'm not a fish person lol. I ordered the bbq platter and let me tell you...FIRE! 2 ribs, 2 hot links, 2 pieces of chicken ( I went with the thighs) and mashed papas & macaroni and cheese. My hubby ordered the ox tails with rice and gravy & greens. Amazing as well! Side of chili beans cus I had to try and glad I did. Bombtastic! Best peach cobbler in town! And Pepsi products! Can't get any better than this :) Make sure to try this wonderful place! Moms house is home cooked mama's cooking!

And I'm glad she did it is traditionally Southern sweetened tea which would have gave me a problem drinking that. My friend opted for the Swwweeeeeet tea and I opted regular tea with lemon. The GRUB : They have a good southern menu and they have very attentive staff today we got the" Surf and Cluckers" Meal w/catfish, chicken thigh, chicken breast, 5 shrimp, sweet potatoes, Mac and cheese and black eyed peas and Cornbread... and I loved every bit of it the catfish 5/5 stars was tasty well cooked and seasoned just right the chicken breast was filleted (too thin for my liking) 4/5 stars, cooked in a very good batter along with the chicken thigh 5/5 stars the five shrimp 5/5 stars were not jumbo shrimp but we're good enough to satisfy and tasted the same way the catfish tasted in the cornmeal batter, the sweet potatoes were very good and I was surprised at how well they tasted the 5/5 stars Black Eyed Peas where soft and well seasoned 5/5 stars, cornbread was good but colder than I would have liked as it didn't melt the butter 3/5 stars while the macaroni and cheese was nothing to rave about 2/5 stars., honestly for the price it was about as much food as I would have eaten if I went to Hodels for about the same total price for 2 people, however if I had this meal anywhere else outside of Bakersfield it would have cost me approximately twice as much..Great deal for the price. Quick review of Mom's house and I was not disappointed. GIVE THEM A TRY , I've been hesitant on going here since the original owner passed away and it was renamed Mom's House, so my friend who is a sunday regular, offered to buy my lunch here, so what the heck why not just go glad we went ,well try to take the family one day.

The only red flag you'll ever catch me falling for is the one waving at me on a spicy chickenjoy…read more I have been looking forward to eating Jollibee all summer long. This was my celebration meal for getting through summer school. It was the perfect choice. I ordered the 2pc Spicy Chickenjoy w/ Jolly Spaghetti. This is my favorite spicy fried chicken of all time because it is HOT and crispy. I love to give it a good dunk in the gravy for the perfect bite. Pairing it with the jolly spaghetti is my go-to. If anyone has ever asked "Why does Filipino spaghetti have hot dogs?" the answer is simple-- because it's delicious! Filipino spaghetti is sweet and tangy, and an absolute must have when visiting Jollibee. The service here was excellent and pretty quick. The restaurant is an average size for fast food with tables and booths available. It was also very clean too. I'm looking forward to my next visit already!

I visited this location on a Sunday around 11:10AM. It was quite funny because we pulled into the…read moreparking lot, and my partner was asking where it was and I pointed and said "it's probably the building with the bucket of fried chicken on it." I couldn't get over how funny that is! I walked in on a mission to get that dang Jollibee glass tumbler. I saw a sign that said the location was allotted 108, and when I arrived it looked like there was ten or so remaining. There was nobody in line to order, but appeared as though two people in front of me had already been helped. We placed a large order at 11:15am for the 10pc chicken joy, the glass tumbler, Yum burger with cheese snack pack, spaghetti family pack, and some sides including mashed potatoes, rices, and coleslaw. They had a promotion running if you spend $35, then you get a free chicken sandwich too. About ten minutes after placing the order, our food was ready. There was a small mix up because I thought I said to go, but it was rang in as dine in (I'm really not sure if this was my error, or the cashier's error), but when the food was ready it was on a tray. I asked if we can have it bagged up for take out and Iris was very sweet and kind about it. It was really refreshing to see someone not get upset or defensive about extra work a little mistake caused. I really appreciated the customer service. When we got home, the order was accurate. Unfortunately, I was so excited about the food, it didn't even cross my mind to take a photo of the feast. I really enjoyed that the chicken skin was still crunchy, and the chicken itself was still moist. As for the spaghetti, and yumburgers - they tasted just like the other locations we've had in the Valley, SGV, and in Honolulu. It's really nice to have this option here in Bakersfield. Even the parking is plentiful. Overall - this is a great spot, and would definitely recommend coming here.

I really like the restaurant decor of a mix between music and sports memorabilia. I love the signature Cane's sauce which always goes great with their tender and juicy chicken fingers. I also really like the sweet tea, very balanced and refreshing. Everyone knows about how good the Cane's toast is, but the fries and cole slaw are also very tasty. My only slight effective criticism I might offer (pertaining to my last visit) is although I like and appreciate the music that is being played throughout the restaurant, it was a bit too loud. It was loud to the point that I was having trouble hearing the person that I was speaking to, that was sitting directly across from me. Another suggestion which pertains to the chicken. I'll start by saying I love the chicken fingers which are always so juicy and delicious, but when you're eating them the chicken has a tendency to separate from the batter. Not a big deal but I think it could possibly be corrected by cooking them for a tad bit longer. Maybe, maybe not, I don't know. Love the food though!

Service was nice, and the place was clean. I got the naked tenders for the first time, and they were actually pretty good! They were juicy and not too dry, which I was pleasantly surprised by. My only complaint is that they're definitely on the smaller side for the price. And of course, the toast has always been my favorite, it never misses and always hits the spot! Overall, a solid experience and a good option for a quick meal before hitting the road.
