Chocolate shake
Brooke F.

Didn't even know this place existed, just happened to stumble across it with my s/o on our way home. We were so surprised! This place is SO good!!! So many options, so much flavor, and such a great chocolate shake. Chocolate packed. We love the TVs in there as well, we were able to watch a few games while enjoying our dinner. We will be returning!

Earning my Yelp Elite status from exploring Houston's food scene, this interstate chicken chain made me proud. You order at the cashier, then listen for your name to be called at the register. I ordered the 3 tenders & fries, served with pickles (I opted out) and 2 house sauces (which I opted to keep as house sauces). I also got a regular strawberry hibiscus lemonade. My spice level was mild, but that did not at all take away from the explosion of flavor in this food! The chicken tenders were juicy and made with real chicken with its meat striated. The tenders and fries were coated with their house spice mix, which paired perfectly with their house sauce, which tasted like a comeback sauce but a bit darker and heavier on the tomato. Amazing. My drink came without ice and was very sweet and delicious. Next time, I'll try it frozen for an additional $1. Overall as a Texan who's been generally unimpressed with Arizonan food thus far, this chain cured some homesickness and provided a deliciously flavorful meal at a reasonable price.

I came hear during lunch time and the restaurant only had a few people in it. I ordered and received my to go order within about 15 minutes. The cashier was super nice and made to sure to hand me silverware and a straw. The restaurant is extremely casual and has multiple large tvs on 3 out of 4 walls. There is outdoor seating. I wasnt super impressed with the food, the frys were good but they started to taste too sweet after a few bites. The chicken was a little bland, I did the mild level and I would definitely not get it again. I did order a side of their house sauce and unfortunately that didn't really help with adding flavor. I will say that the coleslaw was phenomenal!!! If you are going to go, I would definitely recommend that you ensure you have their coleslaw.

Dined: 9 people on 4/14/26 We stopped in to celebrate winning our high school tennis match. We've never tried HHC but have tried Dave's HC and Twist HC. We LOVED HHC and feel it's slightly better than DHC & much better than THC. The hot is better and the chicken is juicier and moister! The chicken & waffle is AWESOME! Loved the fries and coleslaw as well. We will DEFINITELY be back!

Side of Pickles (side)

Charging me $2.50 for this amount of pickles is criminal. Chicken and fries were fine.

I'd been eyeing this place for couple weeks after seeing it on TikTok. I finally made it in, totally ready for some serious heat. I ordered the medium spice level and was waiting to cry because of the and... nothing. It tasted like the kitchen forgot the chili at all!!!!. I came specifically for the kick. Here's the rundown: * Medium-spice sandwich: no detectable heat. !!!!! * Chicken tender - butter honey, non spicy, ordered plain as a backup in case the sandwich melted my face off--turns out they were the only flavor on the plate. Juicy, yes, but zero spice. * Fries Classic crinkle-cuts. No special seasoning, but hey, fries are fries--they're hard to mess up and still tasted fine. * House sauce - not creamy enough, watery. So for now, it's a solid 3/5. I'm willing to give them another shot, but next time I'll either go a notch (or two) hotter or chat with the staff to make sure I'm actually getting the spice level I ordered. If that sandwich finally delivers the burn everyone raves about, I'll gladly bump the rating up.

Tried Houston's Hot Chicken and it was honestly really good. Definitely better than Dave's Hot Chicken in my opinion. The sauce was amazing, that's what really stood out. Everything just had good flavor and didn't feel dry or basic. Service was great too, no issues at all. The place was busy the whole time with people coming in and out, even Amazon drivers and people on lunch breaks were eating there, so you can tell locals actually like it. Easy 5 stars.

Whenever I'm craving a hot chicken sandwich I always come here. The store is always clean, the employees are always friendly and the food is consistently tasty, I've had no complaints!

Cheese fries
Kassie L.

Came here with my husband who wanted to try it. Houston TX Hot Chicken is on the corner of University and Rural. There is a small lot with free parking. Service was fast and friendly--can order at the counter or at one of two kiosks. I hadn't looked at the menu beforehand and quickly realized there wasn't much in the way of vegetarian food--possibly some loaded fries or a salad but there's no "chicken" substitute. I got cheese fries and a fountain drink. Husband got a chicken sandwich, fries, drink. Bill was around $30. While I wasn't thrilled with the vegetarian menu options, the crinkle cut fries were solid as was the cheese sauce. Tried the husband's mild sauce--lots of flavor. The atmosphere is sports bar-ish. There are 10 huge TVs and a giant painting of a sports car. There were two different songs playing--pop in the kitchen area and some kind of world-techno blasting in the dining area so loud it wasn't possible to have a conversation--at noon on a Thursday. I get every restaurant near ASU has to be able to serve food and transition to late-night drunk-food hang out, but honestly, the 10 screens in a small space and two different songs blaring was so overwhelming I debated fleeing to eat in my car.

Maddie, helped me and my boyfriend today earlier (5/16/26). She is the sweetest and pure loving. Definitely will be coming back for her. The food was of course delicious:)

I recently made an online order through the app and it was so convenient! My order was ready once I got there and everything came out perfect. Once again this place is great! The food, service, and ambiance of the shop is still going good. If they were closer to me I'd visit more often!

It had a really nice upscale feel while still being relaxed and comfortable. The cocktails were excellent, the food was delicious, and even the music playing overhead was on point. It was the kind of atmosphere that makes you want to sit back, enjoy yourself and keep sipping cocktails. I did have a few but my favorite was the floor is lava, while my wife enjoyed a classic margarita. They also have a really nice kids menu and some great appetizers, so it worked perfectly for our family. Our waiter, Elias, was very nice and told us that Eureka was known for their burgers. Well, he was right! The burger was excellent and those truffle fries with the fresh grated cheese on top were absolutely delicious. You can have your burger cooked to whichever style you like, I like medium myself. I would order both again without hesitation. The service was another highlight. The manager even came out to help bring our food, and you could tell everyone was working together. The entire staff seemed to be in sync, which was really nice to see. This was easily one of my favorite places we visited while in the area. Great food, great cocktails, great atmosphere and excellent service. We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves and would absolutely come back. All I have to say is... Eureka!!

I've also had nothing but positive experiences with the management here. Eureka has been one of my go-to spots in Tempe since it opened, and it's awesome to see that the quality of the food and the people working here hasn't changed. Definitely deserves some recognition!

It feels suspiciously like a trick. Like maybe you round that corner and three guys steal your wallet. But trust the process... because apparently this little side quest unlocks some fantastic food. Everything we had was delicious. Even the freaking carrots were good. CARROTS. Crunchy, flavorful, properly cooked carrots that somehow had me voluntarily reaching for more vegetables instead of just tolerating them until the meat arrived. Speaking of meat... I got the bison meatloaf, and it was fantastic. Eating it made me feel like I'd wandered into a scene from Dances with Wolves. One minute I'm majestically riding across the plains alongside the buffalo, feeling connected to nature and contemplating man's relationship with the wilderness... the next minute I'm putting the buffalo in my mouth. Circle of life. My wife's salmon was excellent. My kid's steak was cooked perfectly. My sister got the chicken and liked it enough to take the leftovers home, which is really the ultimate restaurant compliment. Plenty of food tastes good at the table. Food that earns valuable refrigerator real estate has accomplished something. But the absolute star for me was the Old Fashioned. Perfectly made... and sitting there with a proper giant ROUND scube. Immediate bonus points. If you're serving an Old Fashioned over a bunch of sad little refrigerator cubes, we've already started our relationship on shaky ground. Oliver's understood the assignment. I ordered another. Then perhaps another. History gets slightly fuzzy, which is generally a sign that the Old Fashioneds were doing excellent work. The staff was also fantastic and happily made a few adjustments to menu items for our group without making it feel like we'd requested amendments to the Constitution. Great food, excellent drinks, accommodating staff, and vegetables somehow worth mentioning in a Yelp review. Highly recommend. Just remember... when the front door sends you around the corner, don't panic. You've been chosen for the quest.

This place knows how to run a tight ship and get burgers out as fast as possible. They cook the burgers over mesquite coals right in front of you. We ordered The Great Big One with pepper jack and cheddar cheese. Our sides were fries and onion rings. Both sides were really good. Fries were super salty just the way I like them. The condiments are self served at a condiment bar. They keep it clean and organized. There is indoor and outdoor seating. Grab a table when one becomes open. Parking is limited too. Ambiance is one of an OG restaurant that doesn't create dining aesthetic fluff because the burgers speak for themselves. We will be back.

A little slow on the orders as there was only one guy working the (large) grill and another guy just taking orders and throwing buns on the griddle. We probably waited 15 minutes for our burger patty to be grilled - there was 2 other guys in front of us at the time.. Not a production house that's for sure. Meat was cooked nicely, but my only fault was the hamburger buns - once they got a bit of meat juice on them, they went soggy and fell apart quickly - which is one thing that bugs me about undercooked burger buns. Make 'em crispy and they will hold up better! This bun barely had any color despite waiting 15 min to get a cooked patty! Really!! Place could use a bit of a good clean, to be honest. While the 'old world Chuckbox vibe in Tempe' is "cool", it just looked greasy and a little messy. The fries were pretty much underdone and limp, and lacked decent seasoning. Not sure I'd revisit it unless there was an improvement in overall quality.

We choose to sit indoors. The restaurant is very cozy with dimmed lighting to add to the evening ambiance. It has a casual feel but you can dress up or down. Some people were casual and some more dressed up. We were seated at the front by the stage where live music was about to start. I thought this would be nice since I do enjoy live music. Well the speakers were facing right at our table and it was noticeably loud when the entertainer began to play. We asked for another table. We could not hear ourselves talking. I ordered a cocktail, The Giddy Up Espresso Martini. That was very delicious! They do have a full bar, it's nice to have choices as far as alcoholic beverages. Our food, Fish & Chips, BBQ Nachos, Aged Manchego, Crusty Bread Garlic Oil & Balsamic, and Molinari Sopressata. Everything was absolutely delicious! The fries with the Fish were perfect. My favorite besides the Martini. was the Crusty Bread with Olive Oil and Balsamic. Our server was the best! Amiriya made sure our drinks stayed filled and asked us what we thought about the food. Even on this busy night. After our meal we walked around the outside seating and game area. This place is a fun place to meet with others especially with the outdoor/patio game area. I would love to come back when in AZ.. But, I don't have to wait until then because we have a CD restaurant in the San Diego area! Woohoo! I can't wait to try some other dishes and have another Espresso Martini. I probably would pay for a shot of Bailey's added to the drink.

While I can certainly understand the convenience for hotel guests, I would recommend managing expectations if you are visiting specifically for the dining experience. We started with the Chili Chilies, which I was especially excited to try because it's a personal favorite. Unfortunately, the eggs arrived burnt rather than over-easy, sitting on what we could only describe as Mexican masa--almost like an attempt at corn chips. Next came the Hash, but unfortunately, it also seemed to have spent far too long under the heating lamp. By that point, I decided the safest choice for my breakfast experience was simply going to be the poached eggs. I do want to be fair and say that every restaurant can have an off morning, and perhaps this was simply ours. However, between the food being overcooked or seemingly held under the heat lamp too long, the meal just didn't leave the impression we had hoped for. One other thing worth knowing if you're visiting: parking is a challenge. The nearby garages appeared to be reserved for valet parking, leaving us to park about a block away to avoid any possibility of being towed. Overall, I'd probably keep this one primarily on the radar for Omni hotel guests looking for convenience, rather than making it a destination breakfast. Hopefully, our experience was an exception, because the concept certainly has potential.
