Tenets Basket - 2 tenders, bread, fries and bird sauce. Nashville Hot on left, xtra hot on right.
Tiffany S.

"DAMAGE CONTROL" On yesterday, I placed an order through Doordash and requested no bread but called and asked if I could substitute for more pickles. The cashier asked the manager and she was willing to accommodate me. That was nice of her because she could have said no. My order consisted of a tenders basket (Nashville HOt) and large kale salad. It arrived via door dash excellent delivery and kind driver. I opened my food and the SPICY SMELL was literally unbearable. I then started thinking maybe I am being sensitive. I cut a piece and tried to eat it and almost choked from the pepper. REMEMBER I am originally from NOLA so SPICY Is my forte. I immediately called the store and was asked if I wanted to come in or get a refund. I requested a refund than the cashier says " I don't know if we can do that so let me check. I waited a few minutes, then I continued to wait , then I hear staff laughing in background, then someone says "ISN'T THAT WHAT SHE ORDERED" at this moment I became frustrated. I had been busy all morning and needed to sleep for work that night. I headed to the store and you would not believe once I arrived at the store, the cashier was helping customers, and the PHONE WAS OFF THE HOOK by an unoccupied cash register. I immediately requested the manager in a calm tone. The manager VERENICE arrived at the front counter and greeted me. I was so furious so the first thing I did was show her my phone and the phone off of the hook. I was on HOLD for 24 minutes see picture below. She proceeded to apologize and attempted to explain they the call was missed. I further explained that DOOR DASH prices are higher so offering a person to come in the store is not the bet alternative. I ordered DOOR DASH for a reason and it is a huge inconvenience when I have to arrive in store to correct a worker's mistake. SHe understood exactly how I felt and offered a solution. I also requested for her to smell how hot it was as well. She proceeded to tell me they are using a new seasoning and she believes the person put too much. My rebuttal was you have to be more careful in preparing food like that for a customer knowing there is a difference. I know you may be confused at why would I still give them 4 stars because as the MANAGER she listened to constructive criticism, offered a solution and made sure I was satisfied. I believe it is very important as a REVIEWER to be honest and fair while also telling the truth along with offering a the solution. Whomever is the owner of this franchise I am sure you may be disappointed with the "24 minute hold time" but you should be more proud of having a manager in place who does damage control and encourages the customer to return for a better experience as well as fix the food again.

I really enjoyed my sandwich. The chicken was juicy and the seasoned fries were delicious. Will be returning for more!

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!

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.

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

Kristi H.

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.

Ok Katy, Texas what is going on??!! Let me just say a few…read morequick initial words that come to mind... Wow! Hidden Gem! Unexpected! How have I missed this place for this many years. Throughout the time I sat in the restaurant I kept saying, "Am I really in Katy". I could have been in the downtown of any major city or any of the Houston districts like Upper Kirby or the Heights. It's so unassuming from the outside & then you walk in and 1st see the indoor patio seating & then you open the 2nd set of doors & you are hit with a dimly lit, lounge-like/chic-like restaurant. Food: Calamari - 9/10. Super tender. Seasoned. Served with capers & pickled onion on top. Garlic aoli & sweet Thai sauces on side. Both sauces were good but I give the edge to the aioli. Very decent portion size! Seafood stew - 8/10. This is a stew with rice & tons of seafood. It's a spoon, not fork dish. It's HUGE. I didn't even put a dent in it. It's served super hot. I mean 15 minutes after it had been on the table it was still piping hot! I can't believe how much I had left to take home. It was tasty, hearty, & plentiful! You have to see my picture of how much I took home!! Shrimp Bowl- 9/10. Very flavorful. I got it with lettuce, not rice. Maybe for $25 it may not seem like the best value, but flavor-wise, I did enjoy it. Drinks: - Katy's Finest - tasty mezcal & tequila drink. I felt like it had a hint of mint (which I don't prefer) but they assured me it did not. ‍ - New World Cosmo - deviations from a regular Cosmo are hibiscus & passion fruit added. It was a nice twist on the Cosmo & was more tart than sweet. Sidecar- their version deviates from classic by adding St Germaine. I asked for less sweet & it was an enjoyable cocktail. - Espresso Martini- just yummy! Nothing left to say. I've been twice now & will definitely add them to my local rotation. Servers are attentive. Staff is friendly. Bartender, Miguel, is skilled. Vibe is nice. Food is good. What else could you ask for? I highly recommend a visit! Tip: happy hour starts at 11am thru 5pm. Cocktails are reduced from $15 to $10.

The host was friendly and quickly responded by finding our reservation and getting us seated. Fusion Grill and Bar immediately gave me the vibe of a big city bistro with its decor and dimly lit dining room. The walls were covered with greenery and floral designs music filling the air but not too overpowering. Our server patiently answered questions and guided us through the very extensive menu. There was a plan to sample as much of the menu as our stomachs would hold. First, the cocktails before dinner were great and beautifully served. The bartenders are very talented with their creations filling a drink menu with something for everyone. My dining experience started with the calamari 5/5 which was plentiful, perfectly seasoned and tender. This absolutely killed my appetite before I could consider an entree but ordered a burger anyway. The burgers 5/5 are massive and a real challenge to consume after eating a starter. Fusion Grill and Bar was an incredible find in Katy and now one of my local top five.

The restaurant is very dimly lit, but intentionally so -- just enough light to see your table and your plate. It creates an intimate, connected atmosphere where you naturally put your phone down. Soft live piano music in the background adds to the charm and makes conversation flow easily. I ordered the calamari, while my friend chose the oxtail tacos. Both came in generous portions, seasoned well, and arrived without a long wait. A strong start to the meal. For my entrée, I selected the whole red snapper, served with salad and plantains. I added a side of jollof rice, which paired perfectly with the fish. Another colleague ordered the pork chop with green beans and mashed potatoes -- absolutely delectable. I didn't finish every bite of my snapper only because I wanted to save room for dessert. Our table tried a variety: pineapple upside‑down cake, cheesecake, and key lime pie. Each one was a great finish to the meal and made the evening of catching up even sweeter. The chef personally greeted each table, which added a thoughtful, welcoming touch. The staff was attentive throughout the night, making the experience feel special from start to finish. A memorable meal, a cozy ambiance, and a perfect place to reconnect with people who've become lifelong friends. Loved it.

They serve brunch on Saturday and Sunday until 330. The brunch menu is huge. It is not a super large menu, which I feel very endearing. We decided to try the bagel and lox with cream cheese, the Buzz burger with fries, and their homemade chips. They start off by bringing you this beautiful craft of bottled water. That to me was an amazing bonus. We also ordered two sodas which came in a can. I sort of wish it was a more of a fountain drink than one can of soda for the price. *Now service was super slow. However, the waitress did come and tell us that they are running a little behind and she apologized for it and she was super sweet, so that made up for the weight. How do I known how long it was going to take, I don't know if I would've stayed, but in the end, the food was amazing. The burger was cooked to perfection. My boyfriend is a hamburger snob and he kept saying how good it was how fresh it was and how perfectly cooked it was. They serve you shoestring fries that feel like they're double fried and they were phenomenal. My bagel was toasted perfectly and had a very good amount of cream cheese and lox. As a Jewish girl living in the area that I do, it's very hard to find good bagels with lox and cream cheese. I will most definitely be back for this sooner than later. The homemade chips took quite a while to come out, and at one point I was ready to say we don't need it, but these potato chips beat Buccees beaver chips, 100%. They were super fresh and very crunchy and tasted amazing. I will definitely recommend those to anybody that orders some. My boyfriend then ordered a tropical sunrise smoothie and it was so tasty and tasted like a strawberry banana smoothie. Now once again that did take a long time to come out and at one point, we were wishing we had not ordered it but once we did get it, it was really good and I highly recommend it. The restaurant is not very large and it's the perfect brunch spot for anybody looking for a smaller Cafe with very good choices.
