    Sandwich & Tender
    Kat O.

    I tried the chicken nuggets and fries. The nuggets were really good and moist. I love the dipping sauce it came with. I don't like things too spicy so I was happy with the mild option. The fries tasted dry and were disappointing. Husband got the sandwich and tender meal. He was a fan of the "lift off". He loves hot things and found it satisfying. He's looking forward to trying the hottest option. We ordered to go and the wait was minimal. Service was great. Overall we were happy and will most likely come back.

    I came here on a Friday late night since I was craving chicken tenders. It was a great choice. Starting from the service, angel took our order and he was super pleasant. We got mild, medium, and honey rub. They were all delicious. I usually can't take spice that well but the medium wasn't that spicy to me. I got the house sauce which is prob the best. It's gives sweet thousand island vibes? But it goes well with all the chicken. The chicken was also not dry like some places and the outside was crispy. I believe it was Pedro who made our chicken! Delish. There was also another cashier that was friendly to us, a young white dude. Wish I got his name too. Everything from the start to end was great and I'll be returning whenever I'm craving some tenders!!

    Houston TX Hot Chicken serving chicken sandwiches, chicken tenders, chicken nuggets, salads, fries choices of different toppings with chicken, Belgian waffle, milkshakes, cookies and drinks. Chicken can be made with no sauce or a choice of flavored sauce. House dipping sauce is included and you can also get additional dipping sauces there are lots to choose from for $1.00. Clean inside, good lighting, good music and friendly staff. I like that the staff are keeps the dining area clean. On the menu: 2 Tenders no pickles and Waffle with French Fries meal. I like that I could choose a different flavor of sauce for each of the chicken tenders, I chose mild and lemon pepper. Good portions. I like the crinkle cut fries that are lightly seasoned. The waffle is yummy it is crispy on the edges. I ordered addition dipping sauces - cheese sauce and ranch. Their house sauce has a little sweet chili flavor. It was my first time here and I like it actually pretty good. I am adding this to my chicken spot rotation.

    Excellent fried chicken - based restaurant. Having lived in Houston myself, I was reluctant to try chicken as I felt there is no such a thing as Houston style chicken. However - it turns out it is Nashville style chicken!!! Very clean and hot environment, good music and good vibes. Original Chicken is pretty good with nice sauces. I tried nuggets as well as sandwich. Loaded fries were awesome!

    Medium spice level

    I really enjoy the Houston Hot Chicken Henderson location. The staff are very friendly and they will help you chose a menu option if you have trouble choosing. Customer service is A+! I ordered the Southwest Salad with the medium spice level and seasoned fries. The chicken was juicy and crispy. I love spicy food and the medium has a little heat with flavor. The salad could have had greens that were more fresh but overall it was a tasty salad. Also, I love the crinkle cut fries and the seasoning is perfect. If you not sure about the spice, start with mild or medium. I'll definitely visit again to try more spice levels.

    The best way in the healthiest way to eat chicken sandwiches. Alex is an amazing customer service employee makes everybody feel very warm and welcome and acknowledge being here. He has a great energy and a great vibe and really enjoys what he does and it's really cool to come into a store like this he's awesome and deserves a promotion. Always great, easy listening music short lines delicious meals. This is how food is supposed to be made. If you're out in Vegas it's worth coming out here to the Henderson area to grab this type of sandwich in a very peaceful environment with easy parking.

    Southwest Salad

    This place is just going downhill. I come here on a regular basis. The last two times I've been here, I've waited for my food longer than what was listed for pick up time on my app. It's beyond ridiculous. I understand you guys might be short staffed. But you should probably try to fix that. Today, there were all these people waiting in line and I didn't realize people were sitting down and waiting for their food as well. There was at least four people working, I don't understand the delay. Maybe they just need to shut off their online services and focus on the people there if they are that busy. What really made me more mad was that my order was already ready, and the register Employee kept telling me it wasn't ready. I literally waited for 20 minutes for nothing. My food was in front of her face sitting on the counter, but she couldn't tell if my order was ready. How pathetic. This is why I do NOT TIP. After these last two times, I'm gonna rethink whether or not if I really want Houston's at this point even when that chicken was damn good.

    Made it back just in time for my Texas Caesar Salad with non spicy chicken!
    Sarah B.

    I was adamant even though I heard WONDERFUL things about this place but the name being hot I was assuming it was spicy and I'm a total baby when it comes to food that is too spicy (embarrassing I know) lol but when I picked up my chicken caesar salad non spicy and was amazed!!! It was delicious! I also got their lemonade it tasted home made not like Minute Maid or something it was more tart than that! Sooo delicious. This was on my lunch break at the time so I didn't get a chance to scope out the atmosphere of everything just grab my food, but YUM now I literally dream of this salad! Ordering and picking up my food the girl that helped me was super sweet and on top of it when I went in quick to grab it! I believe she was the same girl I talked to over the phone because she was that nice! The vibe there seemed busy even though I was in and out I loved how cute it was decorated!! Very red, CLEAN, the decoration was so cute!!! I would LOVE to return and try more of their non spicy options on my day off and get to sit down, enjoy and take more pics of their adorable lay out of furniture! The vibes of it almost reminds me of one of the restaurants from pulp fiction so I will for sure get more pics!!!

    This place was great when it first opened a couple years ago, but like most corporate chain restaurants, they have gone way downhill since. I order from here fairly often and the decline in food and service decline noticeably every time. So while I would have given a 5 star review a couple years back, it has dropped all the way to one star now. I am writing this review while waiting for my food to be done which was supposed to be 10 minutes ago. The food is consistently not on time (they give you the time to pick up your order when you order online. The portions are about half of what they used to be (salads & fries) Food portions: small Food packing: sloppy French fry seasoning: none Napkins: cheap and covered in grease

    Order window!

    Jacob was absolutely amazing great customer service especially for it being so late at night! 11:15 pm 45 minutes before closing He has such a positive attitude! Great job!!

    Mild chicken sandwich leftover cheese fries and a non existent tender!

    Everything was sooooooooo good!!! The cheese fries were fire, but the slaw needed more dressing for my liking! This place is definitely worth it, the chicken isn't too spicy but not too sweet! I definitely want to come back for more!!

    Chicken sandwich and tender meal
    Jaslyn S.

    First time here , got the sandwich and tender combo. Husband ate the sandwich w mild heat , he said it had the right amount of spice . I had the lemon pepper flavor on mine and it was perfect for this no spice gal. Chicken was tender and juicy . Very casual spot with great music while we were there and the service was quick.

    After visiting Aztec Burgers for dinner, I have now placed them as one of my most favorite burger…read morejoints in the Las Vegas area. It's located in Henderson and is a local restaurant. My choice was the BBQ Smash Burger with bacon, BBQ Sauce and fried onion rings and it exceeded my expectations in every way! The burger had so much flavor! The meat was very juicy and seasoned perfect, the BBQ sauce added just enough sweet and smokiness, and the crispy, salty bacon made this a truly an amazing burger! The onion rings were nearly as impressive as the burger itself! The breading was a perfect golden brown and very crunchy without feeling too greasy. The portions were large! Each bite was full of flavor and light enough to make it easy to not think about how many onion rings I was actually eating! I would say the combination of the burger and onion rings made this one of my better burgers that I have eaten in a while! What I liked as much about Aztec Burgers was how inexpensive the burgers are! It was both an extremely satisfying meal, as well as very cheap when compared to other restaurants with similar offerings in this area. The flavor, the size of the portions, and the price were all factors that contributed to such an amazing evening at Aztec Burgers! Aztec Burgers is one of those places I will definitely return to. With their outstanding smashburgers, the perfect fried onion rings, as well as their warm and casual service style, if you're anywhere near Henderson or Las Vegas and are looking for a burger that is both delicious, then you have to give Aztec Burgers a try! The service is amazing here and the team members are helpful!

I usually order the OG without cheese, and my husband loves the half-and-half burger with chorizo (also without cheese). Both are always flavorful and cooked just right. The portions are great too -- the burgers come with a generous serving of fries, which makes it an even better value. If you're in Henderson and craving a really good smashed burger, Aztec Burger is definitely worth checking out.

    I wanted to like Oak Room, but they're completely missing the mark…read more First, there's no Wi-Fi, which already makes it a bad choice if you want to come here to work or relax for a while. On top of that, they were playing rap/hip hop when the space would make much more sense with chill lounge music, jazz, or oldies. The vibe feels confused. The menu is also poorly positioned for the location. A lot of the items are things I'd much rather get from the surrounding restaurants that do them better. If King's Fish is 10 steps away, or Echo & Rig is nearby, why would I choose to pay $58 for a ribeye here in what feels like an empty gaming bar? Instead of differentiating itself, Oak Room seems to be competing in categories where the nearby spots already win. The place would make far more sense leaning into elevated bar food, small plates, and finger foods. Outside of fries, fried shrimp, and egg rolls, there's not much on the menu that fits the environment. This is not the kind of place people naturally want to go for herb-crusted salmon or a ribeye. I'm writing this more as a favor to the owner than anything else: reevaluate the menu, the music, and the overall positioning. Right now it doesn't feel like a place to work, chill, or have a standout meal -- and the fact that it always seems empty reflects that.
