    Large Doritos nacho.   Loaded Nachos Large
    April J.

    I ordered a large nacho with Doritos on DoorDash. What I received looked like a kids meal. I rarely wrote reviews but this was ridiculous. I will never eat from there again.

    My sister and I were planning to meet for dinner. I found this place on Yelp so we decided to try it. The young guy taking the orders provided awesome customer service!!! He gets a 5 for his customer service!!! It was Wednesday and they have $1 wings on Wednesday. I ordered a 10 piece wings. 5 regular fried and 5 Honey Hot Lemon Pepper. My sister ordered 5 regular fried and a fish sandwich. We both agreed that the regular fried were literally just that. They were not seasoned at all!! So much so my sister was trying to give her remaining three to me but I didn't want them. I enjoyed my Honey Hot Lemon Pepper wings. I wish they had been a bit more wet!! My sister said her fish sandwich was good and she liked it I would get the flavored wings again. Also, I am willing to try other things.

    I've had two meals now from this true "hole in the wall" restaurant and believe a 5 score is not only justified but required. It's located in a Citgo gas station/convenience store and has no exterior signage. Fellow Yelper Rick F. brought this place to my attention with his review and I say thank you! One important thing to remember is that it is a TO GO ONLY restaurant as there is no room to sit and eat your food which is the only negative from coming here. I hope you live nearby like I do. My first visit was for dinner and I chose their 2 piece fried fish meal with 2 sides for $12.50. From the sides available that day I chose cabbage and rice and gravy. The food took about 10-15 minutes to prepare and when I got home, I noticed that they gave me 3 pieces of fish instead. I loved every bite. Seriously, that fried fish was the best that I have had in a long time. Even after a 10 minute ride home the fish was still hot and had great flavor. Each fish fillet was large and 2 would have been plenty of fish but that 3rd piece just gave me the opportunity to enjoy it even more. Delicious is the correct adjective here to describe that fish (5). The cabbage and rice and homemade gravy were very good too (4). This meal is on their regular daily menu. I waited over a week to return so that I could sample additions that they offer on Friday and Saturday's only (i.e. soul food). On that particular day they were offering smothered pork chops with 2 sides for $12.50 so that's what I ordered. My side selections were corn and potato salad. This meal took about 20 minutes to prepare and was still hot when I got home. The 2 large pork chops were lathered in a succulent brown gravy that made me smile. This is what great soul food is suppose to taste like and is the best that I have had here in Houston. The chops rocked (5). The corn was very good (4) and that potato salad (mayo based) is perhaps the best that I have ever had. Cool in temp and creamy and smooth it's taste was perfect (5). From what I can tell, there are two ladies that work here. I know 2 things about them First, they are both very personable and friendly. Second, they know how to cook, period! My 2 meals have impressed me with their quality. I will return and often. Thanks Rick F! P.S. I'm not much of a wing person but I took an order of them to a small party and they were enjoyed by all.

    So my first review for 2021 comes literally from the world renowned reputation of a little hole in the wall. I mean this place was so hidden that they don't even have a sign yet. Here's how it happened. I was browsing around Sam's Club just doing my normal shopping routine, when out of no where some random lady walks up to me and starts talking about how she's from Memphis and just opened a new restaurant in Jersey village that sells good Memphis style soul food and huge big burgers that are bigger than your mama's burger and how they have all kinds of different style of Buffalo wings. I mean she was going on and on and I said..okay I gather you sell wings. There was silence followed by a giggle and her handing me their impressive colorful business card thingy. Well fast forward to 6 hours later and hungry, I decided to go eye spy this place to give it a try. I yelped it... Nothing. So I had to add the business to review it. A lovely 2021 bonus for me. I drive there and was immediately lost. Based on the amazing photos on their Instagram page (once I found it) I was determined to find it. Googled the address again and again. Lost. So I'm sitting at the Citgo station confused. Pulled up to the store and was confused as I saw no sign even on the inside that said their name. So I called the number and they answered. And as I'm talking and looking inside the store, I see the lips moving of the person on the phone that synced with whom I was talking too. A scene straight from The Office. So yes... They are inside the Citgo station. Let me skip all this to the food. DAYUM! And if you missed that then let me get Friday on ya... DAAAYYYYUUUMMMMM! Look. The wings where freaking bad ass. Not the fat huge wings that all other businesses are trying to push on you. They were simply perfect in size, flavor and presentation. Uh... I done found my spot yall. Let's focus now on the smothered turkey wings on a bed of rice with a side of very seasoned green bean and amazing, got-dang spaghetti! People... These women can cook! Look, I don't care how your restaurant look. If it's clean and the food is this dang good... You're a five star in my book. Never judge a book by its cover. I highly recommend this place. You can't sit down in there but it's Covid now so who cares. Get it to go... And Prosper!

    You would never know this place is here unless you live in the area or stop by the gas station. I over heard a bartender talking about this place one time I was sitting down for lunch so I had to find this place and see what she was talking about. I stopped here last week to get some food Togo before going to work and it was well priced and definitely fresh. I got the lemon pepper wings because it was my first time and those shouldn't be hard to mess up lol. I will definitely come back and try all the different options from here and definitely tell others about this place. Also the service was great they were so happy it was my first time and a great attitude goes a long way. Thanks !

The wings had no flavor at all and the coating/rub did not even stick to the actual wings. I'm so disappointed. This was my go-to halal wings place and now I have to find something else.

    We drove a good distance to come here--since we wanted wings and this was a top rated spot on Yelp…read more I was really surprised by all of the positive reviews after I finished eating here. We opted to eat here, since they do have a small counter with a couple chairs and it was a long drive back--we wanted to try the wings fresh. We ordered the spicy honey lemon pepper wings and the buffalo garlic boneless wings. Also an order of fries and some cheese sticks. Sadly, they weren't offering waffle fries, because I was really looking forward to trying those. Out of all of the food, I probably liked the cheese sticks the best, but nothing was impressive to any degree. We had both ranch and bleu cheese, and it was hard to taste a difference between the two. They didn't put lids on some of the dipping sauces, so from the walk with our bag from the kitchen to the counter where we ate, white sauce spilled all over the bag and made a gigantic mess. The spicy honey lemon pepper tasted like mostly honey, but the wings themselves were cooked fine. The boneless wings were tough and the garlic flavor was just overall underwhelming. The fries were about as boring as it gets--I'd guess that they're frozen. The cheese sticks that I mentioned--I've actually had better at Jack in the Box. The guy who took our order was nice and easygoing, but he was constantly talking on the phone outside when not taking orders. To the extent that others who came in to order after us were taken aback and unsure if they needed to wait for him to finish his call. I really wanted to find a local business with great wings to support, but this was not it for me--I wouldn't come back.

Wings can either be tender or tough, it depends on how quick you can pick them up whenever they're ready. I also did the fried oreos here one time; now those are must order! Fried goodness with a hint of powdered sugar, it melts in your mouth and a great item after you've been salted by the wings and fries. Since it's easy to order, I'll probably order here again and try some other flavors out. Heard the tenders are also tasty so that could be next.

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!

First, I noticed that the staff handling food behind the counter were not wearing gloves. Hygiene is important, especially when preparing and serving food, and it was concerning that no one appeared to be following proper food safety practices. At that time, the rotisserie was already being cleaned, which told me they had stopped preparing fresh chicken for the day. Instead, they were serving pre-cooked chicken kept in a warmer. As expected, this made the chicken dry and hard on the outside. I ordered the 1/2 dark meat chicken with yellow rice and Tequeños. However, I was given two small leg quarters and an extra piece of white meat--which I didn't ask for--all of which were extremely dry. The portion size has noticeably decreased as well. I was also very concerned to see them using spray cleaner near the food, which poses a risk of chemical contamination. On top of that, the Tequeños were extremely dark and tasted like they had been refried, nearly burnt. Adding to the poor experience, one of the girls behind the counter was playing around and massaging her coworkers while customers were being served. That level of unprofessional behavior is not something anyone wants to see while waiting for their food. I've always liked this place for its fresh rotisserie chicken, but it feels like DoDo's has started cutting corners on both food quality and cleanliness. Paying $19.52 for this meal just didn't feel worth it.

    Terrible service and zero accountability. I placed an online order, but when I arrived, the staff…read morehad decided to close early and refused to fulfill it.

Save your time and money--go somewhere that actually values its customers.
