    Chicken strips and fries.
    Andrew S.

    HHC is utterly awesome! I could just end there, but firstly reviews have to be at least 85 characters, plus I know some of you might want a little more, and so, dear reader...let's get into some more deets! The Hot Chicken sandwich is superb, so crunchy, juicy, and flavorful. I recommend medium heat, that's just perfect and packs a punch even for a crazy spice masochist like me. I highly recommend a side of crinkly fries along with house dipping sauce, or their beautiful creamy coleslaw. Next let's talk about chicken strips and waffles. OMG these chicken strips are huge, and so tender, but also come with a great crunch. Again you have a choice of heat levels, and with these I love to go up to the Buffalo and Spicy levels. I have not dared to try Liftoff level yet lol. This place brings the spice, but it's well done and flavored spice. The waffles are fantastic, have a great texture and also very sweet, but perfect combined with a little maple syrup. Chicken and waffles became a favorite of mine travelling down South, and this is the perfect way to fix cravings I get for that from time to time. One nice touch I love is the little flags they stick in items that tell you the heat level of each tender/burger. Maybe it's required due to a lawsuit because damn HHC knows how to bring the spice! I generally do take out from here, but it's a nice clean store inside and always had friendly service inside or via the drive through, definitely no complaints there either. This is fried chicken done right, and this location a gem for those of us in the NW of the city, just beware you might end up addicted. Also watch out for the spice levels, because they sure know how to bring that and go too far and you'll be saying "Houston...we have a problem!"

    Came in for dinner. We were greeted and helped by two employees. It had been awhile since we were here and needed to review the menu. Employees were patient and helpful! Asked if we wanted to taste a nugget with the level of heat. I decided on the honey butter cheesy chicken with slaw on the side. It was delicious. I also had the strawberry habicus slushy. My husband ordered the cheesy chicken with medium heat. Oh my that was hot for me! I tried a bite from the nugget we were sampling. Wooo spicy. We also ordered a side of mac and cheese which is cheesy.

    First timers!! We've been wanting to try this place for such a long time - but it was worth the wait! First I want to shout out Keshaun. He greeted us and took the time to explain the menu, options, and spice levels. Plus the great chefs! We ordered the Chicken Sandwich meal that has an extra tender, fries and a Mac n cheese + extra slaw. Sandwiches were great size, chicken is also great size as well as tender. We tried mild and buffalo. Both delicious. Mac n cheese tastes actually cheesy, not plastic. Slaw was fresh(you can always tell when it's been there a while.) Everything was seriously delicious! Only reason I am giving a 4/5 is because I personally didn't really like the fries or house sauce. Just didn't care for either. Definitely give them a try! Also restaurant was clean and had music playing.

    Great late night spot, stopped in close to 1am and was impressed by how clean the place was and how friendly the staff were. I ordered the tenders and they were fresh, flavorful, and hit the spot. They offer a range of spice levels so you can get it just how you like. Solid experience overall, would definitely return.

    Chicken and waffle mild

    This was my first time trying this place. OMG bomb i have chicken and waffle. Two tenders waffle and fries. The waffle alone was soooooo good i did not need to dip it. . I hope my review says it all i will go back again this place is a 10 out of 10. It is a little pricey for the two of us32.00 guess thats the norm.

    I love this place. The first time i went to a location in a different neighborhood. I was not a fan. A year later I was in Summerlin and popped in and it was so good. A few weeks later i found a 3rd location near me and it was also very good. My guess is maybe the first time was just a one off poor experience. I get the sandwich with the tender. And the milkshake with the waffle is a yummy treat

    Sandwich & Tender
    Jenny R.

    I've had friends telling me to come here for a while so I finally did. And let me tell you: I have been thinking of this place every day since. The chicken was SO good. I got the sandwich + 1 tender combo with fries. I got the honey butter level spice and it was just a hint of spice but a TON of flavor. The house sauce is pretty good too. Be warned: the sandwich is super messy (but oh, so good) I used the drive thru, so I can't speak on the ambiance of the inside of the restaurant, but the drive thru was pretty quick considering the food was so fresh. I'll be back!

    The chicken was delicious. Food is fresh and the chicken moist and thick. The crinkle fry's was thick and the best I've had yet in Vegas. I had three piece tenders, 1. spicy 2. Lift Off 3. Houston we have a problem. The wife had the regular tender sandwich. Staff were nice. First I started with the spicy and man it was amazingly moist and had some heat. The second Lift off made me sweat and gave the heat. Since I have done the one chip challenge with the kids and barely broke a sweat thought I would give there hottest Houston we have a problem. First that was the biggest mistake I have made in a long time. No wonder you have to sign a waiver to get it. Heat was instant regret with sudden hick-ups. Not going to lie thought I was bound for the hospital. Do your self a favor and give this spot a try it will be one of our favorite chicken spots minus the full blown heat.

    There are grilled chicken options, as well as handmade salads.

We started with the Bun Bun Chicken Salad and the 8-piece Cajun chicken wings, which came with shoestring fries. The wings were flavorful and crispy, but the real star was the dipping sauce! It was SOOOO good -- seriously, the perfect match for the chicken. Of course, we had to try some desserts too! We ordered the banana pudding pie with strawberry jelly topping, the Biscoff cookie cheesecake, and a dessert that looked like a s'mores but was actually a meringue. Everything was delicious, and it was honestly hard to pick a favorite! And if you're looking for something for a special occasion, they also make specialty cakes and shakes, which is definitely something I'd love to try next! Overall, such a great spot with tasty food, amazing desserts, and lots of options. We'll definitely be back to try more! Highly recommend giving Bun Bun Chicken Deli & Baker a try!

The inside/dining area is smaller than what I'm used to but I usually just get my food to go. Service is efficient and quick for the times that I went. First time I ordered through the kiosk and I waited 15 min. Today I ordered online and it said estimated pick up time was 7 min. I live 15 min away and they were packing my order by the time I got there. Take that how you will but I didn't have to wait so I was satisfied. I tried the new nuggets and I have to say, they were kind of disappointing. A little dry probably because it's white meat and the seasoning reminded me of Wendy's chicken nuggets. It's not a bad thing but I was expecting it to taste like the jollibee chicken. I'd rather get the bone in or chicken tenders. Will be back for sure!

Another reason I can't give 5 stars right now is the AC. They've been experiencing some issues with it, and as much as I love hot weather, it can get a little suffocating inside, especially when the restaurant is busy.
