    I finally tried Frenchy's! The foodie that I am I needed to try it. It has been hyped and hyped and over hyped and it did not live up to the hype. I had the 5 wings with a side of greens. The greens were good I enjoyed them. But the chicken, it was just not giving what I was expecting it to be. It was fresh but it wasn't giving like omg the best chicken ever. I also added a side of sweet potato pie that was good as well. The ambiance of the restaurant was nice. I enjoyed hearing the Louisiana Bounce music as well as the Zydeco music. The guy who took our order was very nice honestly the entire staff I interacted with seemed cool. But unfortunately I was not a fan.

    I had an amazing experience with Frenchie's restaurant in Houston--even though I didn't dine in person. I ordered through DoorDash while staying at a hotel, and I was genuinely impressed that everything arrived still hot, fresh, and perfectly seasoned. The food was cooked to perfection, and the portions were generous without being overpriced. I ordered the chicken along with sides of red beans and rice, collard greens, and a roll, and every single item exceeded expectations. The flavors were rich, comforting, and clearly made with care. What stood out most was how well the quality held up through delivery. Even after transport, nothing felt soggy or lacking it tasted like it had just come straight out of the kitchen. This recommendation originally came from Beyoncé, a Houston native, and I can honestly say it did not disappoint at all. Whenever I'm back in Houston, I will absolutely be ordering from them again or hopefully visiting in person next time.

    Passing through downtown Houston near the University of Houston, the smell of Frenchy's Chicken literally invaded my car -- so I had no choice but to stop. The drive-thru was packed, so I parked, ordered online through their website, and went inside to pick it up. The line inside was just as long as the drive-thru, but they have a pickup window just outside the dining area for online orders, which made things easy. I went with the chicken tenders, dirty rice, and a strawberry Fanta. You really can't go wrong with Frenchy's. The food has been consistently good since way back when I was in middle school. Even though this location moved a block from where it originally was, that Louisiana Cajun flavor hasn't changed one bit -- and clearly neither has the demand, judging by the nonstop lines. Funny side note: I was on a call with a friend who moved from Houston to the U.K. decades ago, and when I showed him my meal, it literally brought a tear to his eye. That's the power of Frenchy's.

    I should avoid this place at all cost. Every time I'm in town I am drawn to visit despite my better judgment. This is my favorite chicken spot in the Houston and Austin area. It's been hot, can't always say fast, but lately the service times have improved, too. If you see chicken bones flying out the window because I can't hold off eating the chicken that is likely me.

    I had a craving for some fried chicken! I am so happy that they started securing the packaging as I ordered from a delivery service. I cannot attest to the actual location due to the delivery. I love when my drumsticks are small and they actually gave me more pieces than I ordered. I think this will be my new location to order from!

    Four piece with dirty rice in a row and a jalapeño. Strawberry soda, hot sauce and ketchup. OMG so good.

    This is not the Frenchies I went to, but I want to let it be known. There's a new franchise on telephone Road and Park Place in the gas station. It is very good. Excellent highly recommend telephone road in Park Place. It's in a gas station

    I heard a lot about this p lace, but they must have been in a slump when I visited. The chicken was tasty, but overpriced. The staff didn't seem like they were in a good mood.

    Overrated chicken spot. The staff appeared unhappy and wasn't welcoming. It's almost as if they're mad you're there. The chicken is mediocre and the greens left me second guessing my choices. The fries were really good though! There was plenty of dining room and they're cashless so make sure you have a card.

    First time visiting this location literally across the street from U of H. My first impressions are that it does robust to go business via drive thru. We wanted the full experience so we dined in. It is a walk up counter and there is a kiosk to place your order. The attendant is very quick to get your order and very knowledgeable about the menu. She asked me what chicken I preferred on my campus combo. I didn't know you get a choice and this was very generous and thoughtful of her to ask. I knew we were here for the chicken and some other goodies I know they do well! I had red beans and rice as my side with the 2 jalapeno peppers, sweet cornbread, and added boudin egg rolls and didn't want to pass up the peach cobbler. I love their chicken here because it is unique with a light coating of fried breading that is seasoned very well. I am sure the ingredients are a secret lol. The food took a while to come out and it was pretty busy at lunch. The interior dining space is small and there is plenty of outdoor seating. Frenchy's is a must visit Houston institution for some southern fried chicken! I totally recommend making a visit out here for some great comfort food.

    A friend suggested that I try this fried chicken since I was new to the Houston area. I went through the drive thru and 2 lanes were in operation and I still waited 30 minutes The lines were long. The attendant, I forgot the name, was very stellar and talked that location up so well. Very cheerful. The chicken was very flavorful and tasty. It has to be in the top two of the best fried chicken I've ever had. The crunch was top tier. It was fresh and the temp was still hot. The dirty rice wasn't dirty enough for me and it was dry and bland. The cornbread was a choking hazard. It was very dry as well. If I ever went again, it would be for the chicken only.

    I haven't been to the new location of Frenchy's in 3rd Ward. It is a very nice spot and spacious area inside. Frenchy's is one of the only restaurants that have good greens and cornbread, they both don't have sugar which no sugar is the best flavor for me. The fried chicken is tasteful not to salty but good seasoned. The wings are kind of small but they tasted good.

Nice cozy place, perfect setting for fried chicken. I am sure they had other stuff, but that was the mission for this visit. Started with fried pickle spears, probably the best I have ever had, no joke. Perfect coating, taste and preparation. I like the spears vs the chips. Had the special which was to legs and two thighs for the price of the 3 pc dark. Beans and slaw. Ok, the chicken was great, moist, seasoned, very well cooked. I will go out of my way to go here for the chicken. Beans, canned with a little flavor added, nothing to brag about the slaw was pretty good. The fries on my friend's plate looked great. Perfect. We got here at about 1145, the place was busy. By 1215, it was packed, but they move people through and do a booming take out. Try it, you will like it. It satisfied my fried chicken desire and. Am set for a bit, but still want to go get more!!

I enjoyed their fried chicken, which for around $12, came with a thigh and leg, along with ample amounts of coleslaw and fried okra. Even I, as a voracious eater, could not finish all the sides. The chicken itself was beautifully fried in peanut oil, and truly one of the best, juiciest, fried chicken pieces I have ever had. This place is an example of simplicity at its finest. If you are in Houston and craving some down to earth fried chicken, Gus's is the place to go!

We found parking down the street and walked over, which could probably get tricky on busier days, but I'm here for the food anyway! The staff was friendly and everything seemed to move quickly and efficiently. Even when it was busy, the noise level was never too high. Prices were reasonable too, which I appreciated. I got the breakfast burrito with turkey bacon, a side of grits, and the stuffed french toast. My sister got chicken and waffles with french toast, eggs, and chicken sausage. Every single thing was SO good that we literally came back again the next day before our flight home. Those grits especially... probably the best grits I've had that weren't made by my grandmother. Smooth, flavorful, perfect texture. And the stuffed french toast!!!! Wow. I don't usually like french toast, but the balance of tartness from the raspberry compote and the creaminess from the crème fraîche was perfect. Another great spot added to the list. 10/10

A big open lot with some food trucks and 2 random benches. Makes for a good late night dining spot after a night out. Standard hot chicken lineup with the sandwich, strips, combo, fries. I liked the halal options. The wrap with turnips did entice me a bit but went for the Sandwich + a side order of pecked fries. The service was efficient, got it out in about 10minutes. I liked the curry seasoning to the fries, the chicken was battered well and had a solid crunch/flavor. The sandwich itself is also a straightforward classic = standard brioche bun + pickles for garnish and a decent sized breast. I would say the "yummy sauce" is just a bit overwhelming for me, it's just everywhere when I unwrapped the sandwich.. It was a bit too creamy for my taste. Overall I liked the chicken and the menu for being halal, it was cooked well and the adjustable spice level is nice. But the Yummy sauce is sort of a miss for me. Not sure what's in it but too rich, 3.5/5, didn't quite stand out for me.
