    The food was pretty good I liked how filling there salad was and the chicken sandwich was nice and crunchy adding the sauce to it really added a delicious flavor. Great service! This lovely young lady insisted to help me clean my table afterwards & the place is nice to have a quick lunch with a couple friends

    I made my way back to Red Chickz for dinner on a Wednesday night and oh, what a treat. The website was a little wonky for ordering but finally did it. Best value for my family of 3 was to order 10 strips and a gaggle of fries. I also ordered Cole slaw to ease the heat that was sure to come. Spice level: blaze, which sneaks up on you ! Crispiness: off the hook! The tenders were placed in a foil pan and still piping hot when I got home 15 mins later. The box of fries fed me and 2 hungry guys and we could only eat 2 strips at a time. Not to mention, reheating the next day was just as good as eating it the same day. Highly recommend.

    I absolutely love this gem. The place is small but the staff is super friendly. The tenders are delicious, the wedges are good and their macaroni is the best I've ever had!

    The original sandwich

    Stopped by since I was in the area, and I am glad to say they do hot chicken right. They had a lunch deal and $2 tender deal for thursdays. We ordered the original sandwich and got 2 tenders to round out the meal. It came out very quickly and so fresh. The chicken was steaming and so juicy. They clearly do something to brine or marinate it as the meat was also flavorful, which is sometimes missed by hot chicken spots. The spice level sparks was nice and the next level up, bonfire, was making me sweat. I would definitely get the bonfire next time as a spice enjoyer. Service was very quick and friendly. They gave us a run down of the deals and menu as it was our first time. Looking forward for the next visit!

    "The crunchiest hot chicken in Houston"- that's really all you need to know right?! Well you should also know that their tenders are Texas sized! This was my first dine in experience with this spot bc post workout treats are the best treats. I'll say my experience started out a little rocky. The gentleman behind the counter was friendly but created a less than comfortable experience answering their cellphone while taking my order. I figure it was the businesses alternative to a store location phone, but definitely awkward. I then went to grab my drink, went to throw away my straw wrapper to find that the only trash can is the back of three restaurant by the bathrooms! Operational concerns aside it was great to see those specialty lemonade/drinks, shakes, Texas sized cauliflower, kids meals and other unique offerings. Cheese tots- taste exactly how you'd expect them to taste. Chicken and waffles-surprisingly solid. I was fooled by the soft waffle (a pet peeve of mine), but paired with the super crunchy chicken, it works! Tenders- they work with the sauce! Strawberry dragonfruit drink- worth a try Mandarin cardamom-also worth a try Here are a few notes if it's your first time: *ask about the spice level. The jump from medium to hot is wild! The hot before the inferno is a ghost pepper jabanero mix! *try (atleast try) the comeback sauce without comparing it to canes. Imo, it works with the chicken!

    Spark level Chicken Tenders

    Was targeted on social media for their $2 Tender Thursday special, I just had to try for the first time! Walking in I told the order taker it was my first time here and she walked me through the menu and provided suggestions and spice preference. Already knowing what I wanted, it was pretty easy. Choose spice level. Comeback sauce (similar to Cains). I prefer my chicken to taste good while a small kick. Spark level was perfect. Big juicy chicken tenders, crispy, moist. It was great! The potato wedges were great with seasoning. Clean inside, nice customer service, plenty of parking. Can't complain - hit all my check points.

    Had to check this place out on a Thursday because the chicken tenders are two dollars apiece and they are huge. They are very tasty and well fried. Now, I'm not a Nashville hot chicken type of person so I was reminded again that I do not like this kind of dry rub spice, but my friends loved it. The only thing I noticed that I would take points off was for the mac & cheese that wasn't so good. It was rather watery and I wanted to check out the original taste so I got it without any spice. The cheese curds were delish and on point. The other thing that really struck me as odd is, it's an eatery. It should be clean. It felt wet and damp and sticky, and the bathroom had no soap, and there was a paper cup with liquid soap in there for patrons to stick their hands in, which wasn't the best. (Was Too surprised to take a pic!) That said, if you're there for the chicken, which you should be, I would just order, pick up, and go, because multiple people were sneezing...even myself, who never sneezes, I sneezed like five times & there were people behind me -- multiple people sneezing and when I looked down at my phone, it was coated with like a little dusting of probably the spices that are floating around, so I would highly recommend an air purifier and a dehumidifier (industrial size) for this location. It's just too small and not that clean, but so popular and super tasty for Red Chickz not to do well...please add those things because I don't think I could come back unless I could breathe. Now, the best part was the counter service staff. They were great. They were attentive. They were fast. They knew the menu and they were friendly and explained everything. We had waffles, also, which were on the softer side but very good. Wedges and lemonade were also so good. We spent about $48 for a $10 lunch special, curds, Mac and cheese ($5 is pricey for a little cup), and single tenders -cold, spark, glow, and bonfire - mostly no spice levels to the medium spicy)

    Ordered Togo from the counter, we took it home to eat. My husband said it's the best fried chicken he's ever had. It was really good. We got the cool and mild to try out. I would definitely get one more spicy as the mild was nothing! But very good!

    I learned about The Red Chickz through a yelp event and I am so glad this spot was introduced. The chicken here is absolutely amazing, from the crunch and the flavorful taste of their fried chicken i was not disappointed. I was also surprised that none of the chicken had a dry taste knowing that it was chicken breast, all of it was moist and that added extra points. My favorite spice level was Bonfire, it was the perfect amount of heat, so spicy enough to feel it but not overwhelming . The staff was very friendly and the service was great. The ambiance itself is very casual and inviting, so perfect to sit and relax while you're eating and the place was clean as well. A great experience overall and I need them to open more spots throughout the Houston area.

    The service was great, the atmosphere chill, and the food was even better! There are so many options that we will have to visit again. We tried the original with the bonfire. It was great, and we could have gone hotter on the sandwich. The corn ribs were seasoned with spark, and I think that was the perfect heat for those. We like spicy foods though. 5/5, we WILL be back. We want to try the honey butter sandwich and the loaded wedges.

    The Spark
    Anokhy D.

    Good lunch stop by the outlets if you're looking for hot chicken. We got the Spark, which includes two large fried chicken tenders (very juicy) and well seasoned potato wedges (decent) with their special sauce and a toasted slice of white bread (fine). It was spicy and flavorful, and came out pretty quickly after ordering. I lost all phone service in that area but they saved the day with their own wifi!

    I was in the mood for fried chicken and this place was exactly I was craving!! The young girl at the counter was super friendly and helpful in ordering. We ordered the honey butter sandwich with fries and a 2 piece tender with coleslaw. The chicken was crispy on the outside and juicy and tender inside. The fries and honey butter sandwich were also delicious! The coleslaw was too bland for my taste, but other than that , this place was really great!

    Original sandwich - 8.5/10 - Medium spice Honey butter sandwich - 9.5/10 - Medium spice Loaded wedges - 8/10 - Hot spice Chicken tenders - 9.5/10 - Hot spice Nashville taco - 8/10 - Medium spice Baja style shrimp - 8/10 - Low spice Cheese curds - 7.5/10 - Medium spice When they said they have the crunchiest hot chicken in Houston they were nottt kidding This spot had the crispiest hot chicken ive ever tried. My favorite items were the chicken tenders and the honey butter sandwich. I wish the fries were crispier tho. I would recommend this spot if youre in the area!

    With the temp dropping, I was in the mood for some soup! Our first choice was closed, so we drove…read moretill we found another place. I ordered the meatball pho which was delivered in a Texas size bowl! (Ask for cilantro t o top it off for a yummy experience and a to go container for what you don't finish!) Their version of fried dumplings was unique and the exterior was lighter than most with the filling being meat. The spring rolls were a decent size and the peanut dipping sauce was good. Hubby ordered the pork bahn me (sp?(, and he really enjoyed it We're stuffed! My only complaint is that one song that played was really loud.... interesting hearing some oldies sung by a Vietnamese person... Wasn't crazy about the game decor either. Will definitely eat here again!

    They do not have tapioca balls, not Teahouse type drinks! They have maybe 4 different drink…read moreselections that they can add boba, but that's it! And they do have fountain drinks. I got Thai tea with boba and my kid got milk tea with boba. They were delicious! But this is not a teahouse type place. They have more of a food menu versus a teahouse/drink menu. They might have hot tea and green tea but I am just guessing! Call before you go if you are looking for a specific type of drink. The inside was clean. Nice decor. Awesome painting in the middle of the big wall congratulating them on 3 or 4 years of business. And they have cool electronics to look at BUT NOT TOUCH! They are display only. Pretty cool. I'm guessing rare and expensive Nintendo systems from Asia. Very cool. And authentic games still in plastic cases (similar to Blockbuster but not blockbuster). Very pungent food aromas. Like garlic and vinegar. My mom really likes their Vietnamese sandwiches.

    I had to stop by after shopping in this Texas Heat!!!…read more This place is conveniently located in the same parking area as the outlets. So stopping by after shopping...you can't go wrong with that! Parking-you're sharing the lot space of the outlets so parking is no issue. Ambiance-they have a covered out door space with plenty of fans going and a tv for entertainment. Once I walked inside, I was greeted by a host's who were very friendly and jovial!!! I opted to sit at the bar, and the bartender was also friendly and helpful. My favorite dish is the Chicken Taquitos...they are crispy flavorful and have all the toppings that I prefer. I almost ordered as second plate;) I believe they are also available on their Happy Hour menu. Overall, I really liked this location as it is hard to come by a busy chain like this with personalized service.

    We decided to go to Cheesecake Factory for lunch before the movies. I made reservations so I could…read morecontrol the timing of us getting to the movies. Thankfully our table was ready when we arrived. We were seated immediately and ordered appetizers of boneless buffalo strips. They were giant and piping hot. Could have been a meal. Then I ordered the Cajun pasta. So much food and I was able to have lunch and dinner for the next night. My husband ordered fish and chips and son ordered smash burger. My son ordered extra fries and husband ordeeed sweet potato fries. Everyone enjoyed their food. The only negatives: no garlic bread. They have many pasta dishes, would be easy to add. I used the bread on the table to eat with my pasta. A nice French bread would have worked. The parking, not really their fault but lot of people park in their lot to go to the outlet stores. We drove around 10 mins looking for a spot. Will definitely return, lots of things on the menu and their portion sizes are amazing. We didn't get dessert but I love their cakes and cheesecake.
