I initially went to the one in Las Vegas and absolutely loved it so I kinda had high expectations for this one. The strawberry hibiscus lemonade was really good. The lunch special was a good deal but the house sauce tasted a little honey mustard-y? It wasn't my cup of tea really. The sandwich was cool but kinda tasted like chick fil a a bit. They do give you a good amount of fries though. They also keep the place really clean and had great customer service also. read more

So today was my very first time eating at Houston Texas Hot Chicken. The atmosphere was dope crazy art pieces & unique lights. The Cashier Evelyn U was very knowledgeable & helped me get situated. I never got back twice in one day to a place I've only had once for the first time. Till today I never buy food twice & I ended up ordering a box to go . The customer service is solid I was able to try three different lemonades I mixed em into one drink. I ended up getting a chicken & waffle was solid the favor was honey butter that alone made me go back in for another box to take back home after my day was over. The take home was the classic chicken sandwich with liftoff flavor & side of macaroni & cheese best money I've spent since summer started different coming back. Shoutout to Evelyn & staff for taking time with my food. read more

We came in 10 minutes before closing (I know, not great) and felt guilty but hopeful we could grab Houston's hot chicken since we didn't have any locations down in SoCal. We arrived and Maya was still welcoming and friendly as ever. Customer service at Houston's is always great, regardless the location which is one of the reasons we keep coming back (in addition to the delicious food). read more

I ordered through DoorDash since I wanted to try something new on a random weeknight. The food arrived well-packaged in a cool box, and the order was completely accurate. I tried the sandwich and tender meal with regular fries, opting for the mild heat level on both. For anyone with a low spice tolerance, the mild is very safe and not spicy at all; you could probably step up to buffalo if you're looking for a little kick. The only downside was the house sauce--it just wasn't really my thing. read more

They have now added Mac and cheese! It was good but tastes even better with a tender and fries! Thank you so much to the worker. They are always so kind and quick to bring you your food. The music is always good to ! read more

Megan was super sweet assisting us in our first time here! She was very informative on how the menu worked, and her suggestions were helpful in making our selections. I was indecisive about the lemonades and she allowed me to sample a few, all options were great (made me more indecisive ). I ended up with the blueberry lavender lemonade and I'm so happy with it . Our food was delicious! Thank you Megan! read more

Houston TX Hot Chicken - Medium spice Tenders and waffles, and 15pcs Medium spice nugget meal - Sandwiches Near Me - Fresno, California

Love the fries here. Sami good, too. The pickles are pretty tasteless... but they do add texture. I throw away the top of the bun as there's no dressing on it... small reductions, and carbs add up... despite eating the fries. But honestly, additional bread simply dilutes the flavor that I'm chasing. Less bread equals more concentrated FLAVOR. My typical habit with a burger wherever I go... the one exception would be heirloom! I went with the medium heat and next time I think I'll get it a bit hotter .. their sauce is solid! I was there in the evening after the gym ... about 6 PM. The restaurant was very slow, I think there were five employees there.... Super loud, talking and joking around, which was not appreciated. A lot of ghetto Talk as well... seems to be no awareness of how that translates into the public area. I almost got up to go 'inform' them and get my money back! Not good! And as the music is so loud, it's remarkable that they project overtaking it!! With five employees bantering about you would think that the bathroom would be much cleaner than it was. Whoever is the shift manager is not maintaining a very high standard... They are either unaware or indifferent... more surprising is that two employees had used and exited that same bathroom while I was eating... guess they had to get back to the party! It's amazing that people lack situational awareness, and here's an example where that loud joking battering does not help the business. It's simply not professional. I've never get a drink other than a courtesy water ... I'm here the food alone, like everywhere. I like the restaurant and this whole complex has so many good options! Good since I was getting burned out on annesso! If it was not for the loud inappropriate bantering among the staff, I would've given them more stars! Also, the register person seems kinda out of touch ... robotic immediately asking you what you would like and I mean the second you walk up to the register. How about asking me if I need a minute to continue looking at the menu? There's nobody behind me and you could get back to your ghetto banter once I'm done. That ability to be authentic adapting, and aware of various customers needs seemed completely missing .. ask me if I need a minute after greeting me, please. -G read more

Fusion alert: Took Angry Chickz mac & cheese and topped it with spicy chicken from Houston's Hot Chicken... and let me tell you, this combo slaps hard. Creamy, fiery, cheesy, and crispy -- a certified 10/10. This is how you level up comfort food. Warning: Not for the weak. One bite and you might start speaking in tongues. Hey @HoustonsHotChicken -- love y'all, but can we talk about adding some bomb-ass mac & cheese to the menu? I shouldn't have to go to two spots to make magic happen!

My server Evelyn U. Made some GREAT suggestions. I had the 3 tender with a side meal. Evelyn suggested Medium heat and I'm glad I didn't try any hotter! The chicken strips were hot, any hotter would have been too much for me! Evelyn also said she liked the mac-and-cheese, so I tried it and it was delicious! Lot's of cheesy flavor sauce and perfectly cooked macaroni! read more

2 out of 5. The positive is that they have great customer service, lots of seating, and clean restrooms. The not so positive is the portions, lack of taste, and the high price of entry. By this, I mean your total to feel fulfilled. We got their Original Chicken Sandwich with no spice and another with mild spice. The brioche bun was not special, the battered chicken was a bit below a local mid-level fast food competitor (that isn't known for their chicken,) and the sauce was odd, to say the least. Granular, to say the most. The fries looked flavored but didn't deliver on that mark, though were crispy. The coleslaw and pickles may have been the highlight of that dish. We also picked up a side of 5 a la carte nuggets. The nuggets had to weigh 1.2 oz after frying. The amount was so little, it disappointed my teenager immediately. Lastly, the strawberry hibiscus drink (they also have a freeze) was really good. The total came out to $55 not counting gratuity. Suffice it to say, we were overall dissatisfied and disappointed. The coolest thing to come out of this was exiting the restaurant to an orchestra of hail! read more

Hot party-like vibes from the walls, lights, and coloration. Chicken's piquancy level ranges from 'no spice' and/or 'honey butter' to the hottest 'Houston We Have A Problem.' In between are 'Mild,' 'Buffalo,' 'Medium,' 'Spicy,' and 'Lift Off.' Although our youngest opted and definitely needed sauce for the 'no spice' chicken, the fries were salted just right and tasty with a cheesy flavor. read more

I had an amazing experience at Houston TX Hot Chicken! The food was absolutely delicious, fresh, and full of flavor. What really made this visit stand out was the exceptional customer service.Manager Ernesto went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect and that we had a great experience. His professionalism, positive attitude, and dedication to customers truly set the standard for outstanding service. Bree was also incredibly friendly, attentive, and welcoming from the moment we arrived.It's rare to find a team that genuinely cares about their customers the way Ernesto and Bree do. They made us feel valued and appreciated, and their excellent service made the entire experience even better. I highly recommend Houston TX Hot Chicken to anyone looking for great food and even greater customer service. We will definitely be back! read more

The food was amazing! Tried a spicy sandwich and some chicken strips. They were delicious in every way. The fries were great too. Next time I'll definitely go up a spice level. Whatever it was that I got, it was milder than I was expecting. read more

It's hot hot outside I got an ice cream shake at Houston TX hot chicken restaurant. The parking situation outside their restaurant is limited as it's in a shopping area.

It's so unfortunate how much downhill this place has gotten. We used to love eating here. Our fries were cold and when we told who I believe is the female cook she just said okay and took it. No apology or anything. The cashier who originally took our order though was very sweet. She brought our new fries and apologized. The new fries was cooked this time so that's good. However it tastes different from I remember. It was very sweet and salty. Heavy on the salty part and I am a person who loves salty food. The chicken tenders were very small and one of them wasn't fully coated so it wasn't crispy. The cashier was the only good part about today's visit. read more

The chicken was very good. It was fresh. There are lots of different flavor options so it's not just hot and mild. There's a lot of dipping sauces to choose from too. The frozen lemonade was so refreshing especially after getting a little heat from the chicken. The staff was friendly and there was plenty so places to sit inside . read more

This was a bit of drive from my house in Clovis, but well worth it. Staff were super nice and decor was cool. I had the cheesy hot chicken sandwich with mild heat and fries. It was excellent, chicken cooked perfectly and the cheesy sauce was awesome. My wife's Southwest chicken salad was a pretty big salad with a generous amount of chicken all cooked perfectly. Would definitely make the drive again and wish I lived closer. read more

Always super friendly employees and really great food. One of my families favorite spots to eat in Fresno!

First thing I noticed it wasn't busy at 1pm when we decided to go try this place out thanks to Central Valley yelp. We weren't greeted, not even I'll be right with you, not one question was asked. Sometimes when you see people staring at a menu you for a while you should definitely acknowledge them. The cook kept peeking out the window as if he had nothing else to do. The guy who took our order kept asking for help from his manager due to me adding another item that I would pay for. We ordered the house favorite for my yelp review and a hibiscus lemonade that came with no ice which was weird. And my daughter ordered the fusion fries with a cucumber lemonade. At first everything looked great and delicious. First I tried the fries they were lukewarm definitely not right out of the fryer, the sandwich was a decent size and tasted really good. We started eating the fusion fries and at first it was a great first bite, the chicken tasted really good, the weirdness began with mango, beans mixed together and all sat on the side which made that side of the dish super soggy. It had cojita cheese with cilantro dressing and house sauce, it was a huge portion of food in a small bowl, it's definitely something you should share with someone since it's a lot of food. My honest opinion of the place it was weird with the chickens and car painting, the music was as if I'm in high school all over again, the employees were cussing as they were talking out in the restaurant. It's giving hood vibes in an area that is dominantly white and on the nicer side of town. Unfortunately it's not a place I would be returning too based on what I saw my first time being there. read more

Stopped by today to pick up lunch for the shop (CenCal Audio in Madera) and to celebrate the birthday boy (Birthday Boy chose HHC!!!). Ernesto was very kind and greeted us right when we walked in. He helped us place our order and recommended a few options, which we ended up trying the tenders in--mild, medium, and spicy--and each one was on point. We also had the Texas Ceasar salad and it was delicious, super fresh and full of flavor. And the fries... hands down some of the best! Crispy, seasoned just right, and definitely a must-order. Great service, great food, and an all-around awesome experience. We'll definitely be back! Lupe Varela read more

The food was surprisingly good. Brioche bun was very soft and well-made, no changes. The chicken was tender and juicy, breading was not too spicy but well flavored. Was not as crunchy as other chicken places, but instead the chicken was very soft and moist. $13.99 I really enjoyed the coleslaw Which was made with fresh cabbage, crunchy not too soft or sugary. If you are a soft chewy non crispy fry person, you'll love these fries. Also tried the mondi drink Which was a mixture of frozen berry drink like frozen lemonade, blueberry, cucumber watermelon, strawberry hibiscus mixed with their soft serve. $599. What is a little sweet, But overall very enjoyable drink. The man who took my order seem to be the owner or manager. He was very well put together, patient and knowledgeable. However the order did take a long time. At the same time, the food was done almost as soon as the order was completed so there is no complaint. read more

Good environment (tho I hate their music). Service is great. Ordered Cheesy Hot Chicken Sandwich Combo. GREAT cheese sauce (thick & flavorful). Crinkle cut fries are nice & crispy (tho these were too salty because I got the seasoned ones). Chicken sando is always really good. I've gotten their Chicken Caesar salad a bunch of times & it's always great too. My bestie has done their Tenders & Fries a bunch & it's also great. Love their Strawberry Hibiscus & Blueberry Lavender Lemonades. Strong flavor not weak like many places. Love their outdoor covered patio read more

ALL NATURAL FREE RANGE NEVER FROZEN MARINATED FOR 24 HOURS My husband and I came in around 3:30 for our FIRST visit here. It's located off Friant Road near Woodward Park. There was one other Yelper there with us, otherwise the place was empty. What I noticed right off the bat, was how VERY CLEAN and spacious the restaurant is (as well as the restroom ='s good maintenance). The staff were all friendly and gave suggestions. We sampled all the lemonades, and you can pay a little extra to have it turned into a 'Slushy', which we did! I ordered the Cucumber Watermelon and my husband ordered the Strawberry Hibiscus. I don't like heavy sweet ANYTHING and almost always just order water with my meals, but THIS was IDEAL! The Cucumber Watermelon tasted clean, icy, and refreshing. Perfect for our Fresno INFERNOOOOO summers! Oh yes, I will be back for that! Each customer has a choice range of heat levels for their orders. My husband ordered ZERO heat, and I chose moderate. I ordered the traditional sandwich, which was FANTASTIC! So crispy with just a 'bite' of heat that did not distract from the flavor, which was for me, PERFECT! It was fried in a way that was not greasy AT. ALL. How DO they DO THAT! My husband ordered the loaded fries which came with chicken tenders. The chicken has a wonderful crispy exterior, but the inside is moist and delicious. Quality chicken. Quality I can taste. Onward with the fries! Truly, these were the best crinkle fries I have ever had. They taste like they are made in house, thicker than usual, hot, crispy, non-greasy. The quality IS THERE folks! I am a total FANGIRL over the product! I JUST experienced my favorite place for a chicken sandwich and fries! (TRUMPETS SOUND). :D One previous Yelper noted the 'hood' type music. Yes, it was playing for us too & we don't like to dine with it EITHER, but the food product was SO good we pushed it aside. You really DO need to eat it while it's HOT and FRESH! If it wasn't 100° today, we COULD have sat on the outside patio... to get away... from... the music...LOL! NOW that I have had my first 'Houston Texas Hot Chicken sandwich', GONE are the days that I look at the loooong lines at their competitors, saying; "FORGET IT! I don't want to WAIT"! And HEY! I can even have one on Sundays! read more
