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!
Angela T.

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!

A Delicious Thank You to Teachers!…read more What an incredibly thoughtful way to give back to the community! One of our teachers at school entered a drawing for a free catered lunch from Locale Farm to Table, and we were so lucky to win! The drawing was the owner Heather's way of giving back and showing her appreciation for teachers. She was especially touched by our teacher's story, which made the win feel even more meaningful. Many of us who work at the school already dine at Locale and absolutely love the food, so we knew we were in for a treat. Heather brought some of their most popular dishes, including a hot honey goat cheese spread with Pyrenees bread, roasted butternut squash and Brussels sprouts, a fresh garden salad, and a chocolate and strawberry pastry for dessert. Everything was absolutely delicious! What really stood out, though, was how much thought Heather put into making sure everyone could enjoy the meal. She heard that we had some vegetarians among us and went above and beyond by preparing additional dishes without bacon so everyone had plenty to eat. That extra touch meant so much and really showed how genuinely caring and thoughtful she is. Having this incredible meal right before the first day of school was such a special treat. Teachers and school staff work incredibly hard, and feeling appreciated in such a generous way was truly wonderful. Thank you, Heather, for your generosity, kindness, and for supporting our school community! We are so grateful, and, of course, already looking forward to our next visit to Locale!

Service was excellent, Dakota was such a nice waiter. Food came out fairly quick and they didn't mind that we moved tables. Food tasted AMAZING. I got the Cowboy BBQ salad with fries. I also got the apple juice to drink which was nice and cold. I got an Arnold Palmer with watermelon Fresca and it was good too. Prices were pretty good, seeing it's a farm to table eatery in this economy. They were also very kind about our dietary restrictions. I have celiac disease and my sister is dairy free, so she substituted a few things on her burger. We inhaled our dinner, it was soooo yummy Seriously tho, Dakota was the best waiter, give him a raise or som

Of course, I had to try their famous tri-tip sandwich and added a side of fries. The sandwich was loaded with tri-tip, tender, flavorful, and paired perfectly with their BBQ sauce. The fries were a great addition and made the meal even more filling. I also ordered the Southwestern salad with chicken, and when I opened the container, I was honestly impressed by how much food they packed in there. It was huge, fresh, and loaded with chicken, avocado, black beans, corn, peppers, and plenty of toppings. Definitely not one of those salads that leaves you hungry afterward! I also have to give Firestone Grill credit for the sauces. They gave me two large containers of BBQ sauce AND two generous containers of dressing. As someone who hates when restaurants give you one tiny sauce for an entire meal, I appreciated that more than I probably should. No sauce rationing over here! I did takeout this time, but they offer self-seating and have a full bar, so next time I definitely want to dine in, grab a drink, and enjoy the full experience

I was tired of fast food on our road trip and wanted something more real. We stopped here to check it out and everything about our experience was perfect. From the moment we walked in the door we were greeted within 30 seconds even though the 3 servers on the floor were VERY busy, they got back with us within a minute, sat us, and immediately got a drink order. When they came back they asked if we were ready to order. We were in a hurry, so when the Server came back to quality check our food we ordered dessert to go and asked for the check so we could get back on the road as we were eager to get home. We were so impressed with our service and honestly, the delicious diner food, that we planned to stop here again on our way home from our yearly trip this year. We had a different server this year, but everything about the experience was identical. Wonderful, tasty, timely, kind... Thank you, Willow Ranch staff, we will certainly make you part of our plan every year! I also wanted to note that I am a career server and the details matter to me. It is so amazing when someone like myself can receive the kind of service that I am proud to give when I'm working. I also witnessed the front of house staff engaging in friendly banter with the kitchen staff and I just love that. I am also close with the team on our line and I think that makes a huge difference in the overall performance of the restaurant.
