    Tenders so hot it burned through the top
    Jenny C.

    Ordered cowboy chicken through DoorDash, and the chicken tenders were so hot they melted through the top of the container. We had to cut away the chicken that had been touching the melted Styrofoam. The chicken enchiladas were very good.

    Haven't been for a few years. Did not disappoint! Chicken was tender, side dishes flavorful. Service was friendly, quick and of course with a smile. No chickens in the fire pit but still loved the sight. The menu has changed a bit but still good. Glad we made the drive here

    Yelp 100 Challenge 2023 #41 Delicious chicken in various sizes and meals, and they now offer fried tenders. Cowboy chicken has been good every time I have ordered and I enjoy their side salad and twice bakes casserole. Try any menu item, just be sure with fries or okras to ask for no salt because regular they were a bit salty. All in all 5 out of 5 stars.

    Ketcher's service was world class. (my bad if i spelled his name wrong) 1. He recommended me the most delicious chicken I have ever had 2. He guided me through the extravagant menu to make my decision on what my heart truly desired. 3. He acted like real friend and wasn't afraid to let me know the sauces I asked for might not be the best option in the politest way. He said Buffalo and BBQ is definitely the move for my chicken vs balsamic and chili lime-- he was so right. 4. He was so kind. GIVE ME BOY A RAISE NOW The biggest crime I will ever experience is if they don't give ketcher a raise because he deserves more than anyone I have ever met. THE FOOD IS SO GOOD TOO GREAT SERVICE SUPER CLEAN GREAT LOCATION

    Size and how little meat was on it

    The service was abysmal the last and final time we went. Placed a pickup order for the tenders and wings dinner and the crispy drumsticks. The crispy drumsticks were actually drumettes. Ive eaten enough chicken in my life to know the difference, but when we took the food back in, the manager shrugged and said they were legs, not drumettes. They were literally as big as my thumb.

    First time at Cowboy Chicken! The place has more of a fast food vibe than a place like Babes Chicken Dinner House. You order at the counter and they bring the food to you. To the plus side, the roasted chicken was tender and delicious, and their Mac and cheese was very cheesy and flavorful. The pieces of chicken I got were a little on the small side - bigger, meatier drumsticks available at Wingbucket. The Mexican street corn was a little spicier than I would've wanted, but it was still pretty good. We'll be back again sometime.....

    Pretty good for a quick meal! Haven't been in a few years now but went recently and overall I enjoyed it. They had a great lunch deal for $10 (chicken + 2 sides + roll + drink). The chicken was a little dry but overall good.

    Such good chicken! Generous portions and high quality fresh tasting chicken. I recommend you try there homemade jalapeño lemonade.

    Usually love this place it's one of my favorite spots to eat chicken we have been here several times since they opened but I've noticed today & the lady time we ate here service is going downhill fast. Today for example the second guy helping out behind the counter who seemed irritated with not just me but other guests about coming back to the counter after placing seemed irritated when customers asked for a Togo box & plastic ware because the lobby dispensed was empty & a Togo back... as a person who also serves & works in a food setting I can tell you it was very unprofessional & I maybe looking for a new place to buy my chicken- Sherman Tx location

    Excellent food and service. Atmosphere is different and cool. Best fried chicken I've ever had…read more Loved it since the first time I went and I don't each much chicken. This place is phenomenal. We ordered dessert for the first time. Pies are NO good. I will say - we didn't love it. In fact, the peach cobbler was very disappointing. Zero flavor at all. Shortcake and coconut were better but nothing amazing. Quickly regretted asking for it. Will not have it again. Definitely not the cherry on top. We'll stick to the amazing chicken and sides and then call it a day.

    It had been years since my last visit here and I remembered really enjoying it the first time…read more Unfortunately, this return visit got off to a rocky start. When I arrived, I was waiting on two family members who were about 10 minutes away, so I went ahead to put our name in. The hostess told me I could go right in, which made it seem like a table was ready, but she never took my name or wrote anything down. After I explained I was waiting for two others, she said "okay" and then started taking names and numbers from other parties, leaving me off to the side without her saying anything else. It was odd, so I sat down. After sitting for maybe 5-7 minutes, I noticed she was taking names for parties of 2 and 3, which was confusing. When I asked about it, she said she already had my party and name even though she had never taken it. At that point, it felt like the Chinese restaurant episode of Seinfeld, where somehow you're waiting but also not really on the list. She finally took my name for a party of three and quoted a 30-45 minute wait, without accounting for the time already lost. My family members arrived shortly after, and we still waited another 20 minutes or so. Once we were seated, the service didn't improve much. Our server was extremely slow, and everything came out at once. We barely had time to get drinks, salads, or biscuits before the food arrived. Refills and additional requests felt more burdensome than attentive. While the food and drinks themselves were great, the overall service felt very disorganized and subpar.

Plenty of drinks, including a wine bottle, 2 haywire's, & a jack daniels. Soft drinks too. The appetizers were fantasic. My double cheeseburger emphasized the meat, well seasoned, right amount of pickles & greens, not overwhelmed with sauce. The tallow fries were as good as it ever gets: crispy, soft inside, must be 2x fried. Outside square had great World Cup fan area. We watched Colombia vs Uzbekistan. My team Croatia lost to England previously, but Haywire soothed my disappointment with an excellent dining experience. BTW: $638.04 with a 20% tip. Great value. This would cost so much more in my home state of California.

We also ordered a slice of Red Velvet Pound Cake. Every dish we ordered was delicious and flavorful. The wings were crispy and very flavorful. The Oxtail Soul Bowl was packed and loaded on top of a bed of corn bread and it came with a huge piece of corn bread on the side. The red velvet pound cake was something different, but good too.

My husband liked them but I thought they tasted heavily of bbq sauce. We all tried a side of spaghetti and it was good as well. Tasted like the spaghetti we used to make in college lol We got the Mystery Koolaid and Mango Peach Lemonade. Both excellent and surprisingly not too sweet. The service was 10/10. There was a very friendly young lady taking orders. This location is takeout only, so no ambiance to speak of. They run a very efficient operation, and I plan to return for sure.
