    I've never been to a Chicken Express. Thought I would pop in and check out what they are all about. There's a Randall's grocery store on one side, and a gas station on the other side. Chicken Express lot is private. I noticed it was pretty dark too. I went inside and looked over their menu. I got a 2 piece with a biscuit. He asked what I wanted as far as the chicken goes. I asked for 2 thighs. As I looked around at the condiments. I say, sauce and honey packets and a few other things. I grabbed a honey packed for my biscuit. My order was ready rather quickly. I found a seat and started in. The biscuit is small. But my whole meal was pretty inexpensive, I wasn't expecting a large biscuit. It was fine enough for me at the moment. I squeezed out some of the honey on one side. Not bad with honey. It was good without honey too. The 2 chicken thighs were really good. Warm, juicy, and the skin part was crunchy with a light fried taste. Meal was pretty decent, inexpensive, and filling.

    Two piece fish add-on. Huge catfish fillets, cooked perfectly. Sweet little corn hush puppies.

    I'm not certain if it had just been a really long time since I'd visited Chicken Express, but I think their food has really improved. I remember thinking it was just a-okay before. Now, if I feel like a yummy, greasy indulgent, cheat meal, Chicken Express pops to the top of the list. Their chicken comes out piping hot and super crispy. Absolutely adore their dinner rolls. If getting chicken, adding pickled jalapenos is a must for me. I recently ordered fried catfish á la carte. Received two massive! fillets (too much food honestly) and tasty little sweet corn hush puppies. For a fast food chain, I am super impressed. And the prices are great. Get ya some yard bird and mud cats! ;)

I actually walked in and dined in a cool nicely decorated dining room. No waiting this time, I got my receipt with a number that they call, when order is ready for pick up. Friendly staff and eager to help you with your order. Location you usually have to wait a long wait especially when the school is out in the area which is Lake Travis High school. No trouble parking in this area especially because it has a very large parking lot. So you either can go to the window or you can dine in. You'll love it! The prices here are so low I love it that's how you save money and the burgers are phenomenally good.

If you've never gone before, start with the classic burger (or cheeseburger) paired with fries and a sweetened/unsweetened tea. You can't go wrong. Future iterations can include modifications, like adding grilled onions, or going lighter with a lettuce burger (they actually do a solid job at wrapping the lettuce burger). I was pleasantly surprised by a P Terry's in Lakeway and, while I wasn't planning on P Terry's, I turned in to the location upon seeing the sign. A beautiful backdrop, and great timing as it was their 21st anniversary and a special meal was being promoted. Music added to the ambiance, giving 1950s diner vibes, and the staff were all so friendly! Full of smiles and great energy. Bonus? P Terry's is pretty dang affordable. Typical meals coming costing around $10.

    Craving a good burger so off I go to Wendy's to check out their double cheese burgers apparently…read morethey were out of bacon which I love bacon cheeseburgers double cheese that is. Upon entering there is no abbiance in this place very plain just boring nothing colorful you have a drink in the corner of the place. I hate writing a bad agree and one thing about me I don't like to do but truth has to be told.. Go ahead to explain what I really wanted several times because these people do not speak english especially blue people that work here I feel for them because they seem not to understand what I was asking. So the order did come to me and I started eating my burger when in fact it was tasteless I'm serious you have to put a lot of salt on it to even taste the burger. It had no flavor it had wilted lettuce the tomatoes were wilted you couldn't find the second burger Patty. I also started eating the French fries you could tell that the oil is old so it's hard to eat. The service was average nothing great not friendly people just people from I believe different countries that are trying to serve you. Unfortunately you have to keep begging them for mayonnaise and ketchup since they don't keep it out. So you have to wait a while to get it while your burger's getting cold in French fries as well. Not a very good experience unfortunately.

    CANT GET MY ORDER RIGHT…read more I told them no lettuce, tomato 3 times!!!! Also asked for a side of ranch twice. I actually don't understand how it's possible to mess up when repeated multiple times. W

I ordered a double meat, double cheese burger with pickles, mayonnaise, and bacon, and it was phenomenal. The bacon was cooked perfectly--crispy, not greasy at all, mild, and full of flavor. The meat was tender, juicy, and incredibly succulent, with an amazing taste. Every ingredient came together perfectly. The milkshake was completely different from anything I've had before. It was whipped and very fluffy--light, smooth, and nothing like the heavy milkshakes you get at fast-food restaurants. It was delicious and paired perfectly with the burger. After being kicked out of All Star Burger simply for voicing a concern (as mentioned in my previous reviews), please read my review, it will blow your mind, this experience was incredibly refreshing. Hatfield Hamburgers is far beyond what All Star would ever dream of being, both in food quality and overall customer experience. If you're in Lakeway and want an exceptional burger and a truly unique milkshake, this is the place. I will definitely be back. Hatfield Burgets has drive in which is a plus.

I heard they had sold off a huge majority stake to another company, and it really shows. Definitely not an ATX thing anymore. Quality control for tacos in Austin out the window. :( Staff was very unanimated. Not rude, cordial, but certainly not friendly. I ordered an off menu item -simple refried beans and cheese in a flour tortilla- and was told it would be four dollars. When I looked at my receipt they charged me 7 bucks; just a few cents less than the Steak Fajita taco I ordered. Rip off IMHO. Both tacos were thrown together so sloppy, with torn tortillas and everything. Sounds very nitpicky I know, but how hard can it be to at least get the ingredients inside a tortilla when you order a taco? Very messy. And the fajita meat had too much gristle on it for my liking (tough). On a positive note, the self service station was very well stocked and clean. Half of the large restaurant consists of four top tables that reads family friendly. The entire other half and patio is totally a local "bar" hangout. It was very apparent there were lots of regulars drinking (and not eating), talking very loudly amongst themselves. So if that's the vibe you seek, this is a joint for you. Um, cheers!

As they were to make my sandwich I asked the employee making it if they could substitute the cheddar for a white cheese which he said they have to charge me extra.

Leather said gladly she would cancelled my order and told me never to comeback we don't need people like you. wow just like that. It gets better when she finish voided my order she tossed the receipt to the side and wrote on it cancelled rude customer.
