Back in Dallas and I had to immediately make a stop at Mike's Chicken…read more Consistently good every time. The buffalo sauce is tangy with the perfect kick of spice, and the gravy is just country gravy, but somehow SO good with the fries. The sweet tea was a little less sweet than I remember from my last visit, but nevertheless, still good. Highly recommend!

Then of course, we had the illustrious piece of lemon meringue pie. Oh Lordy that tasted superb! The service was good, even had a trainee that quickly learns, as usual they were attentive asked repeatedly if we wanted more sides or water and cleaned our table while we sat and relaxed! The ambience is what you'd expect for Babe's chicken House, It's fun neat little pictures and sayings on the wall.

Walked in to a friendly hostess and was seated rather quickly. Had a homey feel with wait staff bustling around delivering fresh chicken and veggies to various tables. After we were seated Nathan greeted us and explained the menu, and returned with our drinks and big bowl of Salad w/Italian dressing and homemade biscuits. The salad was fresh/crisp and the biscuits w/honey, oh my melt in your mouth goodness! I ordered the catfish. Oh so light and crisp coating of cornmeal and fried to perfection. My husband got the chicken fried steak. Nice light coating and fork tender to cut. Topped with the creamy white gravy made it so good:) All the veggies, salad and biscuits you can eat with a protein of choice (5 to choose from), makes a great, fairly inexpensive night out This is a nice family friendly place and worth a trip! Will definitely return.

It was our first time there, and Francisco took our order. He was super nice, helpful, and made sure we knew what everything was since we had never been before.

Everything was fresh, crispy, and HOT, and it tasted so good. It was definitely worth the 40-minute drive, and I would 100% go back.

Honestly, the only thing worth anything was the Kool-Aid, and that's not what you come to a chicken and waffles place for. Do better.

The service at The HEN HOUSE is great. My friend and I went to check it out. Firstly, we were greeted when we walked in and the lady that served us was very friendly and courteous. I ordered Fried Rice and fried Chicken and my friend ordered BBQ wings and friend rice. They told us it would take about 10 minutes and we were OK with it. We sat down at the restaurant and enjoyed the peace and quiet and the owner even came out and visited with us. There were a few other people waiting on their "To Go" orders and one other people dining in with us. Our order came out on time and we were able to enjoy it right there. My chicken was superb and my fried rice was flavorful! My friend was very into his chicken! Thank you. read more

I called in my order and was told I could choose my fountain drink when I arrived. Five minutes later when I got there, the same employee said the fountain machine was broken and then tried to require me to either pay for a fountain drink I would not receive or pay extra for a bottled drink. When I asked to simply remove the drink and pay for the chicken and fries that were already prepared, I was told they "don't sell that" and that I would not be served. After this dispute, the employee handed the food that had been prepared for my order to customers who were waiting in front of me and told me that my order was canceled. Shortly after, two customers came in and were allowed to order only chicken and wings with no issue, even though I had just been told that was not possible. I have video of this interaction. I then offered again to pay for the food that had been made for me. Instead of resolving the situation, the employee canceled my order and called the police even though no crime had occurred. Being refused service after attempting to pay the posted price, having your food given away in front of you, seeing other customers allowed to order what you were denied, and then having police called over a simple pricing dispute is beyond unacceptable. I recorded the interaction for my own protection because of how out of control it became. If you care about fair pricing, basic respect, or being treated like a human being, do yourself a favor and avoid this location entirely.

Chopped Beef Sandwich - Sooo good. One word, JUICY! The meat was so tender and moist, and absolutely delicious. I Loved every bite of it. The sauce is also a notable mention. Service: I was greeted upon arrival and the gentleman who was at the counter warmly welcomed me and asked if it was my frist time, and it indeed was. He came out of the service window area and showed me the menu, as well as where the daily specials were. He gave me a run down of every offering and we had some friendly conversation. He also helped take some food out to the car.

I paid a pretty penny for this plate, so I expected to actually receive oxtails. After looking closely at what I was served and going back to compare it with pictures and information online, I have serious questions about what was actually on my plate. What I received did NOT look like the oxtails I'm familiar with, and based on the comparisons I found, it looked more like kangaroo tail to me. I'm not claiming I had the meat professionally tested, so I can't tell anybody with certainty what animal it came from. But I can say with certainty that I ordered and paid for OXTAIL, and what I received raised enough red flags that I personally would not order it again. I trusted that I was getting what I paid for. After this experience, that trust is gone. If you decide to eat here and order the oxtails, I would definitely look closely at what you're being served. For the price they're charging, customers deserve to know exactly what they're eating and to receive the meat they actually ordered.

I'm not sure what seasoning or ingredients they use, but they had an unusual taste. It wasn't terrible, but it wasn't something I wanted to keep eating. The service was also pretty slow, although I did just stop in unexpectedly, so it's possible I caught them on an off day or received a less-than-fresh batch. Overall, the meal wasn't bad, but it wasn't memorable enough for me to come back, especially since the menu is primarily chicken and fries. The inside is a food hall. They got other different stories and science you can sit down anywhere. It's pretty much open seating and there's televisions for entertainment.
