Urban Fries
Patricia T.

Co-worker kept talking about this place so naturally I got curious... I love fries, even better when it's loaded fries. So I ordered Urban Bird's version of it, named after themselves. It comes with fries, pieces of chicken tenders, and mac & cheese. They had different levels of heat to choose from-- I personally chose Nashville Hot and I really liked it. The kick was great! I've gone back three times already and I'm still not ready to branch out to other items on the menu just because I'm so obsessed with this.

YUM! This place is GOOD. There are so many hot chicken places popping up in htown, and this is the best I've tried! I got the Nashville hot chicken sandwich, and it was the perfect amount of spice. The fries were delicious too and had a great seasoning on them! The restaurant itself is pretty casual, and lots go in on their lunch hour it seems (that's what I did). It is quick and yummy! The service was prompt and kind. I plan to be back!

This food was de-freakin-lious. Been here 3 times, always slaps. Service is quick and easy. It was clean and inviting. Definitely recommend.

Chicken Sando

Yum! Urban Bird's hot chicken tenders sando was a great choice for a meal! The tenders came out hot and fresh, and I loved how saucy the sandwich was. Sometimes places can be a bit stingy with the sauce leading to a dry sad sandwich, but this sandwich was sauced to perfection. There was a great proportion of chicken compared to the soft brioche bun. Overall, this is a must try place if you like chicken sandwiches! It's in a plaza, so parking was a breeze. Call ahead to avoid the line and to save time getting this yummy chicken in your belly!

Salted caramel shake $6
Mel S.

Excellent, Excellent, Excellent!! Fabulous food, chill atmosphere, spacious, clean. OMG I must start with the strawberry lemonade, best ever! So refreshing, tart, sweet, makes you smack your lips with ever sip. Chicken: WOW, super juicy, beyond flavorful. I got the heat level 1 it was superb! The seasoning like eating mom's fried chicken with a nice very small kick at the end, not too spicy at all. Urban fries: To die for, all home comfort food smothered together with super seasoned fries OMG so worth every calorie! I thought the Mac & cheese would be weird on it but it was just like cheese fries. Delish! Shakes - Salted caramel, loaded with caramel & it's so soothing, not too sweet. The chocolate shake with caramel added, excellent also you can't go wrong. Sandwiches - great bread, crunchy pickles love the sauce it's almost like a thousand island dressing base, perfect. Order everything you'll love it and the huge portions.

Mild Tender Basket, Ranch, Bird Sauce
Kelsie C.

This was my first time visiting the Houston area, for work, and I decided to try this place. It was very clean and I loved the ambiance! Their Christmas decorations were so cute! The staff was friendly enough. For the food - it was amazing! I got mild tenders, fries, their sauce and some ranch. I am obsessed with ranch and it blew me away, I loved it!! I will definitely be visiting Urban Bird next time I come to the area!

Well Katy...the verdict is in! This Tennessee Hot Chicken is good! Of course I got the mild, no slaw, no pickles, no sauce so mine looks a little boring..but boring was good to me!! Soooo crispy and juicy!! And why would they put it next to Tiffs Treats??? #foreverthickproblems!! Kiera said the waffles are good but not better than slim chicken waffles. But she says chicken at urban's chicken is better! Happy Hour on custard and beer mon-fri 3-6!

Urban Fries - time to eat!!
Christina M.

So let's start this by saying upon entry I felt this place was clean, staff was friendly and welcoming. Menus are at the front handheld or you can look up to the right wall. I ordered the urban fries which come with mac and cheese, fries, and the chicken strips cut up. I thought this was pretty good but I knew I wouldn't finish it bc I couldn't eat all the fries and pasta that comes at the bottom. What I did eat was pretty tasty and I could see why this is their best seller. I had mine with Nashville hot heat and it was medium heat but some of it could overwhelm ur palette and dismiss any other flavor that's their. I'd get this again tho but with a diff heat level. We also had the tender basket with the sweet potato waffle fries and these things were sooo good! Fries were crispy and had a slight amount of salt on them, I mean they were pretty good. The tenders however fell a little short because they were pretty dry. So if I had to base it on this style of chicken I would say cook shack is better. It didn't seem dry in the fries but I did have sauce all over it but again this could be a misstep bc no one else seemed to have this issue.

Tender Sando is great with Nashville Heat. Fries are terrific. Kale Slaw, fresh and crunchy Tea, watered down so it has no taste. The food is very tasty. If I go back I'll get something other than tea.

We were seated and given a tour of the menu and some suggested options to try. Once the order was placed and the appetizers arrived, the chef came out, introduced himself and spoke to us what we liked best and answered questions about each item. He also came out after the mains were served to make sure everything was being enjoyed. We ordered a few sampler platters for appetizers, as well as oxtail, antelope and ostrich for the mains as we wanted to get a taste of everything. There was nothing that didn't taste amazing! This was the first time we tried camel, kangaroo, antelope and ostrich. We were surprised at how flavorful each of them and the other items were. The adventure was topped off with a slice of the most amazing key lime pie, courtesy of the chef. We will definitely be returning!

But wait, there's more....... The exterior could definitely use some work. Host stand plopped outside. Inside felt a little crowded. Wine cellar-ish. Mother's Day, a bit chaotic for all restaurants. Took 10-15 minutes to be greeted after being sat. No big deal, I get it. Santiago was great. We did the mystery mimosa experience which was fun! We go to order our food and BOOM!! This is where they get you. It was all a lie. A very deceiving menu written in a way where you think you're going to get oxtails and jollof rice plus appetizer and dessert for $55 per person. Because that's a great price, not really a deal, just a great price. WRONG. Santiago had to clarify that it was $55 EXTRA ON TOP OF $42 PER PERSON. SO $97 PER PERSON FOR OXTAILS AND JOLLOF RICE, AN APP & DESSERT. RIDICULOUS! TOTALLY DISHONEST AND DECEIVING. Write it as $55 additional per person, so everyone knows what they're getting into before they reserve their table. Because Santiago admitted everyone he served that day was shocked at the additional cost. Not wanting to ruin my wife's FIRST Mother's Day, I brushed it off and still continued with the order. Appetizer: tequeño & empanada. Bland, came out cold and after our entrees came out. Entrees: Oxtail & Jollof rice. I loved it. Flavor was great. Just wish there was a lot more. For $97, you expect to have 6-8 large oxtails and a side of rice. What i got was 4 very tiny oxtails and a full plate of rice!! Peri peri chicken & jollof rice- flavor was nice and smoky. But again, for $97, you expect more than 2 avg size leg quarters and a full plate of rice. Dessert: They were out of key lime pie by noon. I saw the cheesecake, it was a thin plain slice, so we opted for their seis leches cake. It was not good. It was not soaked enough, very dry. The reason the score wasn't lower was because service was great, the entrees tasted great and they gave each mother a single rose and Mother's Day card which had a pin in it that said best mom ever. Which made my wife's day even that much better. Thank you Chef Casey. But I don't think I would visit again solely based on the deceiving menu and small portions that are not worth the additional cost.

I had been watching this one being built for a while and was especially curious to try it since this location has a full bar, which adds a really fun twist to the traditional coffee shop concept. I stopped in for lunch and decided to sit out on the patio which ended up being the perfect choice. The atmosphere was relaxed, bright, and inviting with a nice open feel that makes it easy to slow down and actually enjoy your meal. The staff was friendly and welcoming from the moment I walked in and everything moved quickly and smoothly. I ordered the guava mimosa and it was SO good. Light, refreshing, and honestly the perfect daytime drink. For food I had the chicken avocado wrap and substituted the chips for truffle fries and both were SOOOOO good. The wrap was fresh, warm, and packed with flavor and the truffle fries were absolutely worth the upgrade. I love that this location keeps the cozy Buzz and Bites feel while also leaning into a slightly more elevated vibe with the bar and patio seating.

Everything we ordered was absolutely DELICIOUS and packed with flavor. It's hard to pick just one dish to recommend, but if I had to, I'd say the cauliflower bites were my fav and are a definite must try. Perfectly seasoned with a little spicy kick. The beignets were another standout...light, crispy, and not overly sweet; plus it came with a little dipping sauce. I had the kale and mushroom pasta dish which was heaven for this pasta-loving girl. It was fresh and full of bold flavors. You could taste the quality of the ingredients in every bite (and the added shrimp were HUGE). Don't forget to grab a matcha latte. I had the lavender flavor and it was the perfect balance of sweetness. Highly recommend as well.
