    they served me and my daughter raw Chicken, I noticed the chicken wasn't grilled as much as it usually is, thought that was weird and when I bit the chicken it was raw!! found 2 pieces that were still raw!!

    Build Your Own Bigger Plate - 2 Half Sides, kids meal and soda that tasted like water

    Service was good from the person taking my order... but the food and drinks were horrible. Kids meal had like 4 pieces of orange chicken and a bit of rice... you want me to justify this as $7??? My bigger plate option looks like.... Well I don't know what it is. Sodas were watered down... I have taken a photo of the receipt to time stamp the purchase plus the time of this post. 10 mins at best...This was not money well spent and we will not be back. What a dump of a franchise.... Disappointing!

    They short change me on my food . I was given 3 pieces of meat and 7 pieces of uncooked brococoli. why does want have to pay for 3 pieces of meat. This company is very stingy.?people should stop spending money there

    -2 Stars for dried out fried rice .. The other food was pretty good .. The place was clean and the staff was nice .. I had fried (dried) rice with Firecracker shrimp and Shanghai angus beef which both are an up charge which is ridiculous .. My son had chow mein with a double order of Beijing beef .. Mrs. Texas had Spring rolls with fried (dried) rice .. We may try this location again, or perhaps the new location in Cedar Park. Not really worthy of a bookmark in my Yelp opinion.

    The bottom of the bag
    Courtney B.

    On February 6, 2019, I visited this establishment and placed a to-go order for a family meal. I ordered the broccoli beef, kung pao chicken, teriyaki chicken, fried rice and noodles. The service was quick as there were few patrons in the establishment at the time of the visit. However, the employees working there seemed less than thrilled to be working. The food was as expected. The lower than average rating is accredited to the service rendered and the poor packing of the food. The food was held upright from the establishment to its destination, yet, the contents of the bag were all over the bottom of the bag making the containers they came in soggy and not usable.

    Overcooked rangoons.

    The crew was professional and polite to eachother as they fixed a register malfunction. It's nice to see polite people working together.

    This is a good place that shoots itself in the foot with klutzy self-representation…read more. They call themselves a virtual kitchen located within Urban Chicken. They are NOT a virtual kitchen - and it is just as well that they are not a virtual kitchen. They make it sound like Chronic Fries is borrowing space from Urban Chicken. Chronic Fries is not "borrowing space" from Urban Chicken. The two institutions are one and the same. The menu for one is printed on the back of the menu for other. They may have a complicated ownership structure - But that does not get around the fact that this is simply a fast food restaurant where you can order both chicken and fries. * * * I don't see why Chronic Fries would want to be a virtual kitchen. Virtual kitchens are awful antiseptic places where there is no place to sit down. In a virtual kitchen, you get your food from a numbered box. In a virtual kitchen, there is screen against a wall from which you order. Otherwise, you use your phone. It takes effort to make contact with a human being. Virtual Kitchens are total THX 1138. Virtual kitchens s**k. * * * Chronic Fries/Urban Chicken is a nifty place for a fast food restaurant. They have tons of seating both indoors and outdoors. The crowd is heavily college-age which may or may not be collegiate. The crowd is diverse the way Round Rock is diverse. The crowd has a lot of church kids the way Round Rock has a lot of church kids. My male companion and I were the oldest people in the place. Virtual kitchens don't have crowds - let alone young ones. * * * The fries are super-duper. (Okay, for a college aged place, I probably should have used a term less dated than "super-duper".) For the maximum french fry bliss experience, get any version with chicken on top. Some versions give you chicken automatically. All versions let you order chicken on top as an add-on. Urban Chicken does a good chicken And what goes on your French Fries will be top notch. We got three kinds of fries. The standout was the BBQ Mac and Cheese Fries. Hot Cheetos Fries were just what they sound like. The sides that don't have much Hot Cheetos on them are not all that interesting. You get to the part with industrial quantities of ground up Hot Cheetos on top and, Suddenly things start to go live action. Plain macaroni and cheese fries are not that exciting by themselves. But they sell about half a dozen sauces to put on top of your macaroni and cheese fries. Some of those look like they could make a real compelling argument That they belong on your fries If your toppings are not exotic enough already. * * * Just for the record, they also run a soft-serve operation. That soft-serve operation offers milk shakes as a possible beverage. Thumbs up on the soft serve milk shakes. Their version of an Oreo Milkshake has about a truckload of Oreo crumbs dumped on top. On a milkshake that means that the crumbs end up all on the bottom with your maraschino cherry. Why oh why, in the 21st century, do we still have to put up with maraschino cherries? Why oh why, in the 20th century, the 19th century, the 18th century or any century that you can possibly think of, do we still have to put up with maraschino cherries? The church kids eating at the various tables around you can probably explain to you that because Eve ate the Apple in the Garden of Eden - and Adam ate the apple too - that they were thrown out of the Garden of Eden - and forced to have maraschino cherries on top of their desserts. God's love and the Forgiveness of Jesus Christ gives you the really good Oreo Milkshake that surrounds that maraschino cherry. I have no idea if that theology is sound ... But the Oreo milkshake is objectively good And the difficulty of sucking up those Oreo crumbs with your straw Is the exact equivalent of attaining heaven merely by the force of good works. * * * First rate fries. First rate toppings. First rate drinks. A corporate office with an identity problem. And religious people to talk to in the seats If the fries inspire you to seek a higher way. * * * What's not to like? (Outside of the identity problem.)

    You have to try this place. The first time I went they had just opened and were working out the…read morekinks so I waited to write the review. I had the chicken and waffles with the non spicy dry rub. The chicken was juicy and flavorful and the waffle was one of the best I've ever had. The fries were great as well. Would definitely go back!

    This place was AMAZING! First Time, here, in Round Rock…read more A friend took me, +he ordered the "Smash Burger Mac Fries" for me. I asked for a 1/2 order of it. (I COULD eat it, ALL!) It was Delicious! (Oh, I didn't even offer some to my friend... I'm Greedy!) Ambiance was great. It wasn't too Loud OR Quiet; it felt Lively!!

    Its been yearsssssss since Ive done a review on here.. that's how disappointing & gross our $52…read moremeal was. Im still looking at my plate, disappointed. I knew better when I seen buddy put a sealed bag of cooked helotes in water to warm it, that this was 50/50 on good, but DAMN. The chicken tenders, tasty. Juicy & not small. The plain is basically like eating a canes tender.. boring. The lemon pepper & bbq ones were a lil better but very light on the flavor. Like, very light. Mid at best. The sweet potato waffle fries, fkn trash! They HAD to have been warmed/prepped in a microwave bc there isnt a CRISP to be found. Soggy and undercooked. The white mac. Horrible. Bagged boiled noodles & 50 gallons of cheese sauce that has not a pinch of flavor. It was so gross. But the one that made me spit out my food & write this review was having to wring the grease outta my "Texas Toast". 1st of all why tf do you use toast to line the bottom of the chicken box & seal it up?? I rolled a tender into a piece of bread & took a bite & it was like a mouth of melted butter. I was immediately grossed out. I literally smashed & smooshed the toast, wringing it out & it was like a wet towel. Dripping w grease. That was it for me. This was a definite waste of money!! Idk how this place was so packed!!!!
