Best chicken fingers in town I've been coming to this family owned establishment for years

Basic chicken tenders battered and deep fried. Service is great. Basic vibe fee seats

Awesome prices and quick service! The food's simple but really good - nothing too fancy. You come for the tempura style chicken, and they always throw in a bit extra. Rice isn't too bad, and sometimes it might be a little on the greasy side, but it's juicy and fresh. They've been around for ages. read more

Chicken and rice good . service is average . Need too give more rice based on size . And everything is an extra charge . I paid for extra egg and got teaspoonful per the cashier. .. when it look like no egg was not in rice from start read more

I've been in the area for a few years and always saw this place in the little strip mall along Valley View and Josey. Decided to try it out after one of my barbers mentioned it. They do follow social distancing guidelines so the line was actually outside with only 4-5 customers allowed inside. Everyone adhered to this. I got the chicken and also tried the wings. The chicken was solid. It reminds me of the Chinese buffets I'd go to as a kid. The wing wasn't my favorite. I'd stick to the tenders or whatever they called it. It does come with rice so that covered my fix for carbs. They do have a few sauces. I just went with the hot sauce. I probably should have tried one of each. Relatively cheap and it's good food. A little bit oily, so be prepared for that. But it's good. read more

The chicken is sooo good and service is good I will tell my friends about it and I hope they will tell more people so they can try it.

really fast service despite 4 other parties being in the restaurant. there isn't much on the inside, but the food speaks for itself! the chicken is fresh and hot and the sauces are all delicious read more

Chicken & Rice - Chicken Finger Meal - SO crispy! - Chinese Near Me - Farmers Branch, Texas

Your Honor, I plead guilty! Yes, CNR is definitely a guilty pleasure of mine. It's a good thing we live in North Carrollton, and so don't come down there very often, because if we did, I would probably keel over! The chicken wings and tenders are really good, and the egg rolls are outstanding. The rice is meh ... The one knock on this place is the fault (likely) of the city of Farmers Branch. For several years, they tried unsuccessfully to wage war on the Latino residents, only to lose again and again in the courts. As such, gringos don't seem to be completely welcome. At least it doesn't feel that way. Nonetheless, we will continue to go back again and again until the grease drips off the ends of our elbows, or we keel over first. Remember ... if you smile at others and treat them well, they will do the same for you ... talking to my fellow gringos here! read more

There is a sign on the window saying that the restaurant's most recent food grade is available to view only upon request. That should tell you everything you need to know about CnR. In the interest of trying out a new place to do a Yelp review on, I ignored the sign and walked in. I was greeted by a group of happy young ladies eager to take my order. They have a daily special or you can order of their menu. You have a choice of chicken, chicken, or chicken and rice. Looking back into the kitchen, I saw trays upon trays of..you guessed it chicken. I chose the chicken tenders over the wings. Pricing is super cheap and the portions are huge. The chicken tenders are big, battered and fried crisp. The outsides looked ok but some of the chicken didn't taste as fresh. You definitely need to eat these dunked in some sauce, they don't have much flavor and can be dry. I tried duck sauce, spicy sauce and sweet and spicy sauces with the packets of duck sauce coming out ahead. My meal came with 2 scoops of rice and an eggroll. I skipped the eggroll, it looked overdone and the rice was also flavorless. I finished about half of my combo and was going to put it away but my stomach began to grumble. Took me the rest of the day to feel normal after this meal. So if you are willing to take the risk for some cheap prices and have an iron clad stomach, this is the place for you. read more

Chicken & Rice - Tenders, rice & eggroll combo - Chinese Near Me - Farmers Branch, Texas

This was the most bland food I've ever had in my life. The rice doesn't even have vegetables and the chicken has no flavor. I give this restaurant a 1/10. WORST CHICKEN PLACE IN DALLAS.SORRY NOT SORRY read more

Food was great, and had very big portions I love the free refills. Staff was very friendly. Will go again. And they have Powerade the blue one nobody has the blue one anymore! We ate inside, just a bench and some chairs to have a quick lunch! Still clean tho even in a rush read more

Good friend told me about this place and I have never been a big Chicken and Rice fan. That said this place is VERY tasty and good sized portions. Rice is spicy and too hot for my wife but I like it. French Fries are GREAT but $1 extra. Chicken was extremely moist and perfectly fried. I suggwest get a 6 or 8 piece meal and most people, especially females; should get 2 meals off of it. Warning-NOT the greatest of neighborhoods. Enjoy, I'll be going back! read more

I have been to their Northwest Highway location a few times and always had a good experience. Tonight I went to this location in Farmers Branch as it is closer to home. I was really craving some stir-fry noodles, so I got their Noodle Bowl. I got home and while it was hot and fresh, there was no sauce in it or anything. It tasted very plain, no seasoning or anything. Soy sauce didn't even help it. So, I went back up to the store and asked for some teriyaki sauce because they have a chicken teriyaki bowl, so I figured they would have teriyaki sauce. The girl at the register said they don't have teriyaki sauce. So then I asked what comes in the chicken teriyaki bowl because the website says it has teriyaki sauce in it, and she says she isn't sure because she hasn't had it before. That's no excuse... If it's on the menu and you're at the cash register, then you need to know. Another girl chimed in and said the chicken teriyaki bowl is also pretty dry and she puts a powder on it. So then I asked for some of the sauces that come with the chicken fingers and then they charged me for them, only ten cents a cup but still it's the principle of it. I'd also ordered a chicken finger with my meal and wasn't offered any sauce. Stick to the chicken fingers and rice and you'll be fine. Giving them 2 stars because the food is hot and fresh. read more

This is what they mean when you hear "hole in the wall". The chicken is always perfectly golden and crispy. It's pretty basic on flavor but if you like sweet n sour chicken on the cheap, this is an excellent spot. It's not the healthiest choice you could make but you won't be hungry in an hour either. It's very heavy and greasy. They have great daily specials. Only a handful of tiny tables. No decorations. Plain and simple. No muss no fuss. You don't go for the ambiance. read more

Chicken & Rice - Best deal in town for chicken n rice. - Chinese Near Me - Farmers Branch, Texas

When the food is hot it's pretty good but when it's warm or cold it is not. The manager is very rude and she does not like when you take the food back and request hot food. I've been there probably 10 times and had to take it back twice and she did not like it and this time she told me not to come back. Wow... read more

If you want a HUGE pile of super fresh crispy chicken tenders with myriad sauces (cost extra!), this is the place to go. I think you can get like twenty tenders for ten bucks or something ridic. Also, they have fried rice (whatever) and other things on the menu. I don't know what those other things are but I have seen them in my periphery while deciding how many dozen tenders I need at that moment. The tenders remind me of the ones at Chili's- lots of breading, hot white meat. (The name of a movie I saw your mom in, coincidentally.) It's not healthy and it's not haute cuisine, but it's tasty and filling and satisfies that hole left in my cholesterol labs by my cardiologist. read more

Great prices, extraordinarily greasy chicken. its a no frills experience that would normally thrive in, but the bottom line is the chicken was way too greasy. I dont know how they super saturate the chicken batter where it remains in place, yet weighs down 50% to 75% of the enitre chicken wing or tender. The flavor is only enhanced with the sauces, hot and normal. in dipping the chicken in the sauces, i notice that the embedded oil slick created a natural adversion to the sauces as the greasy has taken over every pocket of space in the batter In order to get enough sauce on teh piece of chicken, one would need to bite a part of the batter off and then pour the sauce over the affected area like trying ot plaster a piece of ice. In the end, this place is about your preferances. What i give is my experience and shouldnot stop you from trying this dive out. Untill my next foodventure, God speed!! read more

If you want a artery clogging super cheap lunch well this is the place. The chicken is sooo good. It's perfectly crispy. They have daily lunch specials and sometimes you can get eight pieces of chicken tenders with fried rice and an egg roll for $3.50. When you need good hangover food this place is especially nice ;) read more

Good Cheap Food, Although not the healthiest, their food is good and they give you good portions for the price. Also look out for the specials they have as well. I love their shrimp fried rice and their chicken fingers. Just be warned I gave it one star off because of the size of the chicken. It is abnormally huge! read more

Well for starters...its not a Chinese place (although it shows on the search as Chinese/Asian fusion).As their name suggests, chicken and rice is their signature dish (Although they do serve noodles too...just because). The food is okay. Its not a fantastic gourmet meal, but its cheap and sumptuous. Its probably good for maybe a quick lunch or take out. I'd probably go there again to get their wings and tenders if I'm having people over. So bottom line...cheap food..better than panda...good for takeout. read more

I've been coming here since I was s kid. Always fresh,hot, lots of chicken and very cheap. My husband and I can split a meal for 8 dollars and be full. And I love their hot sauce! read more

Always good and cheap. You can beat the deal here. I like it. Try the sweet and sour with the daily special.

I've been going to Chicken and Rice for years, since they opened in Farmers Branch. Lately, their food has gone downhill. Today, I got chicken fingers, rice and SN egg roll. The chicken was over cooked and dry. The egg roll was way over cooked and had a funny taste to it. May hand been cooked in same grease as fish. May be last time I go there. read more

Always consistently good. This location has always been on point...i should know I've been coming here since high school and thats been sometime ago! read more

The chicken is battered and the fried rice is probably the blandest I've had. If you order wings they are heavily battered and not friendly to eat. The egg rolls were a struggle as well. If I were to come back it would be for the chicken strips alone, they were good but not with the sauces from here... Just with the sauces from my fridge. This place is ultra affordable and you get what you pay for. read more

I've came here 3 times during lunch and each time the chicken doesn't taste fresh. They cook too much before lunch and it just sits under the lamps getting dry. This was my last attempt. I guess I have to go to the one on NW hwy instead. read more

been a favorite of mine for over 15years! they call themselves chinese fast food, but their specialties are really just chicken strips/fingers and wings. the fingers are more tempura style than breaded style. always hot, fresh and fast! read more

Chicken & Rice - their menu board - Chinese Near Me - Farmers Branch, Texas

See all

I used to like it occasionally every few months for dirt cheap greasy food where the "tasteless" taste grows on you. I had eaten at this location since being a kid. The last time I ate here about 4 years ago it gave both me and my wife the worst case of food poisoning we have ever had in our lives. This was the only place we had eaten that day, and sure enough a few hours later right after midnight, sick as dogs. Luckily we had two bathrooms, we were helpless and almost thought we should go to the hospital, and I've had bad food poisoning from places I wouldn't expect like a nice seafood restaurant in the San Francisco wharf from swordfish. This was on another level for both of us. We will never be able to look or step foot in this place again. Looking back I should have known better. read more

Super crunchy chicken wings or chicken fingers served with fried rice and eggroll. YUMM! Portions are large and the price is low. Perfect combo! The spicy sweet sauce is the way to go! read more

Usually a good lunch spot to grab some quick delicious chicken fingers. Their fresh and hot and you can't possibly beat the price. Best bang for your buck! read more

Seeing a couple of these places around the city and figured I give this place a try for lunch. Got the #1 combo: 4 chicken fingers, fried rice, egg roll, and a drink. Chicken fingers were greasy and lacked any real flavor besides batter and grease. Fried rice was bland as well. Egg roll tasted like what you would get at any other chinese restaurant. Coke was delicious. Maybe the wings are better and I might give that a try next time. For chicken fingers, I would get some from Raising Canes, but there weren't any nearby. read more

Cheap and fast. You can feed 4 people for about $11. The chicken is all white meat. It's similar to sweet and sour chicken but the size and shape of long john silvers. The fried rice is super basic but its just for filler here. The dipping sauces are pretty good. Sweet and sour, sweet and spicy (my fav), and spicy (Buffalo). The food is a little on the greasy side but it's DEEP FRIED chicken and FRIED rice so it's kind of a given. read more

This is the devil's food, because its everything your doctor tells you not to eat and your belly hates you for!!! On the other hand, who doesn't love chicken and rice? and Who can mess that up? Unless you do something totally off I am a fan regardless of this joint and I think price is definitely appropriate for the portion, however, the sauce charges and extra charges for silly things that are not really on the menu. The other main con about these establishments is location and also the inside dining. You might as well eat in your car because there is no inside dining available and the location of these joints are GHETTOO lol. Sometimes its easier and safer to hit up a whataburger but if your strolling down or trolling than hit it up and grab a combo!! read more

I love this place!! The chicken batter kind of reminds me of long John silver, just a thousand times better. The price for these meals is so cheap. Especially on Wednesday when you can get a pieces of chicken and rice for 4.99, like who has prices like that. Nobody but them. **Warning**You might get the "itis" after this. Lol read more

I am a huge fan of CNR since it opened in Richardson Tx. I went to that location quite often and they never fail me. They have the best customer service and food is always fresh. HOWEVER, the Farmer's Branch location needs a HUGE REFACE on employees and a little remodel wouldn't hurt either. The employees are not only rude and unprofessional but they wear no hair nets no gloves and they wear flip flops. I have been here several times and have witnessed so many things that it just makes me want to tell them about themselves. I lady came in to apply for the open position they advertised on the door and she just happen to be dressed like a tomboy. They ladies at the front told her they are no longer hiring and then talked about her in a bad way in Spanish once she left to the cooks and other employees. They make the chicken in advance and have 3-4 pans sitting under the heat lamps causing it to be dry and over cooked. This fish is not catfish it's Swai and they over cook it too. My coworker purchased a drink there as well and it had a bug in it and when she gave it back to the blonde Hispanic lady at the front the lady argued with her telling her there was no bug in it. There needs to be better staff in order for this store to succeed. read more
