Spicy nuggets
Malika W.

The food is amazing and the employees are super nice. Each visit I am impressed with how friendly and welcoming the employees are. I had the chicken sandwich with fries. The sandwich was so good with the crispy pickles. I like spice so ordered mine spicy and it was perfect. I do like ranch with my sandwich; the ranch sauce complimented the sandwich perfectly. The fries with the house sauce are so good. The seasoning on the fries is the best part. I will be back to this location and would order tue same thing again. Yum!

Chilled Blueberry Lavender Lemonade
Kendra H.

I decided to treat myself to a meal out a few days ago and my food at HHC in Traverse Mtn hit the spot. The fries were hot, fresh, and crispy. The chicken sandwich (mild spice level) was tasty and moist. However, the piece of chicken on the sandwich barely covered 2/3 of the bun, which was a little disappointing. The spice level was great, flavorful but with a hint of a kick. I tried the blueberry lavender lemonade which was tart, delicious and the flavors were there. The service was friendly and they even told me goodbye on my way out. The restaurant was clean and tidy. There weren't a lot of people there as the dinner rush hadn't hit yet. Overall a successful and joyful experience.

**Original Hot Chicken Sandwich
Megan L.

Great food! Their original hot chicken sandwich is the best! On the sandwich there is pickles, slaw and their house sauce. It's so good! You can pick your spice level. I always just do mild spice and it's very flavorful. Their fries are delicious and seasoned so well. I always get their house sauce to dip the fries in.

Sandwich & Tender - Medium Sauce - So good!
Joe S.

Chicken Sandwiches are always so tasty, along with the chicken strips! My son's favorite is the cheesy hot chicken, with medium sauce. I tried to take a picture but it was gone before I could get a chance lol! Only downside, my wife ordered the chicken tortilla soup. We had just come from a softball game and it was cold outside so this sounded amazing! First bowl came out cold, asked if we could get a warm soup, still came out cold. We took it home and warmed it up ourselves. Overall still yummy, will go back!

Proof that I ate the spiciest tender in the valley

This location is one of my favorites. There is a ton of seating and parking. My big group got to sit around the outdoor table with the fire in the middle. The cashiers and servers were great and the food was even better. The portions were perfect. I was able to try a bunch of things from their menu. I'm a sucker for good fries and juicy chicken, so the fusion fries were perfect for me. I am, however, an even bigger spice fan. Not pictured are the "Houston we have a problem" tender that I ate and the frozen lavender blueberry slush that put out the resulting fire in my mouth. If you're not a spice professional, stay away from that spice level! It's not for the faint of heart. It's a really well run establishment and it is a more elevated version of fast food. Can't recommend this place enough.

Houston Hot Chicken of Utah? They caught my eye when I was lookng for something to eat during a recent road trip since I was tired of eating burgers. Service was good. They took my order and even tried giving me suggestions. I ordered their Original Hot Chicken sandwich, while my wife ordered their Cheesy Hot Chicken sandwich. The sandwich came with pickles, slaw and house sauce on a brioche bun. I ordered my sandwich "spicy". It wasn't spicy, but, it was a good sandwich. My wife liked her cheesy sandwich. Its more expensive than the more well known fast food chains. But, they do make a good sandwich. If I travel through Lehi again, or if I'm in Houston, or Bakersfield, I may have to visit them again.

Tenders and Slaw
Kasey Y.

I'm a huge fan of hot chicken tenders. These were some of the best I've had. The spice levels were good. I tried medium, hot, and lift off. All were not too bad. I didn't love the house sauce, but the fries and slaw were excellent. 5/5 stars easily. Service was good. Not enough seats. It was crowded.

Fusion Fries
Kristyl H.

Thinking about going into Houston TX Hot Chicken I was under the impression that we are going to another chicken place. I'd like to say that I was surprisingly incorrect. Is it just chicken, yup, but is it also delicious, 10000%. First off, thankfully Houston Hot Chicken is open on Sundays, in Lehi of all places, so that starts as a plus. The restaurant is near Harmon's at Traverse Mountain and wasn't too busy when we got there, but business started to pick up as we were eating. We decided to try the Fusion Fries and the Cheesy Hot Chicken. The Fries were amazing and there were plenty for my son and I to share a meal, with food leftover. My husband enjoyed the chicken sandwich as well (I didn't try it as I have an aversion to spice). We also tried the cookie shake with red velvet cookie - yum! Definitely would recommend trying Houston Tx Hot Honey Chicken and will be going again to try something different.

Texas Caesar Salad
Sarah H.

This was my second time trying HHC and I wanted to try the salad. It was delicious! I really enjoyed it - I did add a little bit extra dressing because I love extra dressing. The waffle shake was a lot for 1 person and was almost a meal! The service was great - fast and friendly. Overall it was delicious and I'll be back to try the next level up!

Curbside view
Anna H.

Really friendly and helpful staff (one of the owners came to our table and asked us how our food was and was really friendly!). Fun, casual, and energetic ambiance! I love the wood paneling on the walls. Okay, but the star of the show was the FLAVOR. The seasonings!! The fries and the sauce and the hot chicken sandwich (i got the mild and it still had a little kick, but they also have a "honey butter" version I want to try next time) it was like a wake-up call to my tastebuds. The thought that came into my head was..."this is so much better than Chick-fil-A!" Also flavorful and refreshing were the drinks! The strawberry hibiscus lemonade AND the cucumber watermelon drinks taste like SUMMER. The combo of the salty fries and sandwich with the sweet lemonade....MMM. I want to re-live that meal again!

Medium Chicken Strips with Fries and House Sauce
Megan H.

Loved Houston Hot Chicken! The place was so clean, the staff was friendly, and our food came out super quickly. It chicken was hot and the fries were crispy. Overall great experience. Definitely recommend!

Chicken was fresh and size of chicken tenders are large and meaty. Flavor is good but fries are a bit salty but have good flavor.

We came to celebrate my son's birthday. Everything was excellent. There was so much food. Literally…read moreyou won't go home hungry. Our server was super nice. She apologized for a couple things that were forgotten or that came out late. We also didn't have to wait when we got here, which was a bonus. The shrimp and grits were very tasty. The cornbread as well. I tried a little of others' food as well and it was all tasty. If you're in to southern food, come here.

We chose it because it was close to the hotel how lucky are we. We went with a group of five. We ordered three entrees and a side of wings. The wings were our starter and they were fantastic black and wings are great highly recommend. My wife and I split the fried chicken with a side of mashed potatoes and gravy and the cornbread it was absolutely fantastic cannot speak highly enough. My mom and dad split the shrimp and grits which they also said was great I did try the grits they were lovely, gooey, cheesy awesomeness. My sister had the kale salad as she needs gluten-free options it was easily the largest most fantastic looking kale salad I've ever seen, and she said it was great. The last thing I would probably comment on is the sauces with a name like sauce boss it better have good sauce and it did. Each and every sauce was unique from others I've had but didn't disappoint all where extremely tasty I especially like the spicy one that came with the fried chicken. At this restaurant they don't have salt and pepper on the table and for good reason everything was spiced and seasoned very well. As for service, our server was very attentive, very kind, made great suggestions and all that being that we came in within a half an hour, 45 minutes of closing, you can't beat that!!! If you want boring food don't eat here. If you want the same plain Jane thing you find at every other chain, don't eat here! On the other hand, if you want amazingly tasty food, service and sauces and a good story to tell eat here!!!

I ordered the buffalo ranch salad with grilled chicken and it was good! Although, I think it's better with the breaded chicken.

It didn't feel natural or genuine. I ordered the Asian salad with grilled chicken. Very generous on the chicken portion which I really appreciated! It was cooked and seasoned to perfection! I loved all the flavors in the salad - especially the cashews and peppers. The dressing, which I got on the side, was very sweet and I couldn't really eat it. Would love to see some type of wonton chip on top to add texture and I wish the salad was romaine and not mostly iceberg. My husband enjoyed his tenders and said they were juicy and hot! We shared a salted fry and I enjoyed them very much. I had a good experience and will definitely be coming back soon.

It's got the regular fare you would come to expect: Chicken tenders, chicken sandwiches, etc. I think what sets this place apart is they have a much more broad selection of sauces and some of their sides and toppings are more than just the basics. Good selection of drinks including some lemonades and fresh brewed tea that gives nice alternatives to a fountain. There are some desserts on the menu that looked good as well. Nice vibe in the restaurant, plenty of room to seat a lot of customers and a nice patio area when the weather permits.

They used to have more wrap options on the menu, which I always enjoyed with their grilled chicken, but everything else is no bueno for me. The fried chicken is tough and very stringy? I'm no expert but I think it's likely cause of how it's being frozen. I may be wrong, but whatever is the cause, the chicken is honestly always a let down. If it weren't a chicken joint, I wouldn't be so bothered by this fact, but alas. If you lather everything in their sauces, it's alright. On its own, very mid. Seems like slim chickens was pretty solid a few years ago when it opened, but nothing spectacular nowadays. There are other chicken joints around at a similar price point and I would have to recommend just about any of them over slim chickens.
