    Pulled pork baked potato
    Charlene D.

    Passed this place several times and stopped by finally based on a recommendation from a neighbor. We ordered a chicken baked potato, a pulled pork baked potato, and a rib plate. The food took a while to come out and wasn't served altogether. The ribs were very chewy, full of fat, and lacked seasoning. The pulled pork potato lacked seasoning altogether and had a sprinkle of bacon (which was an extra charge). The chicken had nice flavor but was not deboned with care as we had to pull out bones and fat from the meat. Giving two stars for the pricing but you get what you pay for. I wouldn't return.

    I loooooove their wings. I get them through drive thru all the time. Wing sauces are super delicious. Wings are big and juicy. Good amount of chicken. Haven't tried their BBQ, but I'm a big wing fan

    My Chow Down Potato. One-meat (Pulled Pork for me) baked potato with cheese, sour cream and chives.
    David K.

    I pass RackShack BBQ every day on the way home from work and never bothered to turn in until last week for lunch. I'm glad I did because my "Chow Down" baked potato was great! I had it with Pulled Pork and the meat was juicy and the potato was big and filling. Price may be a concern for whoever's reading this review. I've been to BBQ places that offer a one-meat baked potato for less than Rackshack. But I've also eaten places that have charged me more! I guess that depends on you. It was $11ish for a one-meat baked potato at RackShack and it was a satisfying meal so I think I got my money's worth. But some may say that's too much and I will somewhat agree.

    Very reasonable prices. I ordered the two meat bbq plate with sausage, brisket, baked beans and macaroni and cheese. The sausage and brisket were okay, but the macaroni and baked beans were great. My aunt ordered a deluxe cheeseburger (which looked amazing) , and she's been back twice for it. The banana pudding is definitely not home made. But I will be back to try the burgers and wings.

    Chopped Beef baked potato, mango habanero wings, and fried okra
    Alexus V.

    Ok folks let me first say I'm not a 'die hard' fan of BBQ (I know and Houston is filled with BBQ locations). My coworkers has been raving about this place and I finally decided to give it a try Thursday for lunch. It's a neighborhood-feel of an eatery, there was plenty of seating and the menu is posted on a board as you walk in. I had looked at the menu prior to arriving, so I was definitely ordering the chopped beef baked potato, which I ordered, but then noticed they had wings (variety of flavors), and fried okra so I had to try these, and let me tell you how happy I was that I did so! The baked potato was huge, covered in mounds of chopped beef that it literally looked like a pile of chopped beef. I poured their bbq sauce on the potato and it tasted amazingly good! The beef was moist, potato was cooked perfectly and they did not skimp on the meat, cheese, butter or sour cream! I left off the chives as I'm not a fan. I only ate maybe 4 fork full before I proceeded to the fried okra, and a little insight about me, I'm a snoot about my fried okra. The fried okra here had to be the best I've ever had! The batter was coated just right, seasoned with salt and pepper, simple yet so good!! I couldn't stop popping them in my mouth but forced myself to because I wanted to try the mango habanero wings. Heat wise, it could've been spicier, but they were crispy and still very good. The staff that took our orders at the counter was very nice and they brought the food to our table. Overall, I will definitely return and try the rest of the many options on their menu.

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.

As far as flavors, the jerk BBQ, teryaki, and firecracker are some of the best in terms of sauce and taste. 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.

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. Despite having my contact information, they provided no courtesy call or cancellation notice. To make matters worse, the employee was incredibly rude and disrespectful, telling me it "wasn't his problem" and that I had to come back the next day for a refund. Save your time and money--go somewhere that actually values its customers.
