    When we arrived the restaurant was pretty busy because the FIFA game was airing. The vibr was pretty lively... large TVs are in various places on the wall. We were greeted right away and seated immediately near the bar The bartender was our server... he was extremely kind and knowledgeable about the menu... great service. It was my first visit so my husband who had been there before requested the sampler of sides and a tester of the chicken (heat tester)... this is absolutely genius! A great way to try the food before ordering. We ordered the half chicken (painless heat level), greens,beans and mac & cheese. It was really good! And for the dessert, the pecas chocolate toffee pie... this was delicious!! It was also very affordable. Thank you for a great experience!

    First time here we met with friends. It was nice, the environment was laid back the service was also good! The food was really appealing, i wish there was more sauce choices, along with the fries they were tasty but too thin for our preference. Only negative input is that the the restrooms required cleaning.

    Tumble 22 is a chain fried chicken / hot chicken sandwich restaurant. This location is right on Washington and Houston. It's a bit difficult to get in and out of the parking lot onto the street. The menu is very simple and fast food esque; chicken sandwiches, tenders, and fries / sides. The sandwich was fairly good sized and comes with one side. The chicken itself was a bit bland; the cole slaw out of everything was well seasoned and had good flavor. The fries are the typical frozen shoe string fries. Service is okay; again, this spot borders on a fast food restaurant so it's quite simple service. Overall, it's okay; the chicken isn't spectacular but it's a step above Canes or Laynes in some ways but flavor wise also missing something special.

    Hot chicken tenders, Mac and cheese, and peanut butter chocolate pie!

    Visiting Houston from Baton Rouge and our teenager wanted to try the "best chicken tenders". Tumble 22 was a win for all of us. The manager, David, heard it was our first visit and sent us a first time sampler to try which was perfect to help us all choose our favorites. Every side was like a better version of normal coleslaw, or regular Mac and Cheese, or normal broccoli salad. The spice levels were what really suited all our tastes well. Cool vibes, easy location from our downtown hotel to uber over, and worth every calorie!

    Tupelo Hot Honey Chicken Sando was the best chicken I've had in a very long time. I got the deviled eggs to start with the candied bacon, and they were DEElicious. Creamy and sweet. The bacon was not chewy, but the right texture to bite through for a two-bite egg. I wasn't sure about my side item, but ended up getting the cole slaw after a small taste. It was rich, creamy, and fresh. The sandwich was thick, juicy, sweet, and crunchy! The pickles and the mango slaw was there in just the right amount to balance the heat. The bun was soft and pillowy and held everything together, even if it was drippy. I will be thinking of this sandwich for a long time to come. Service was friendly and quick. The booth and the place were really cute and modern. This seems to be a popular place, so beware that there might be big, loud parties going on. I would come back here, though, and bring my drinking friends as their bar looked amazing. I took home a slice of chocolate pecan toffee pie because I couldn't pass up fresh pie. It was nutty and hearty.x I was expecting more goo, but it was still very tasty and fresh.

    One of my favorite chicken spots! Service was amazing, and my server gave us many recommendations. I was very surprised and satisfied. Honestly still think about chicken and mac n cheese. Cute western barn vibes. Great for a quick bite or hanging with your friends.

    We got hungry after the Chinese Lunar Year celebrations and been eating Chinese food for the past several days. We wanted something different than that. We arrived around 4:30 PM right before the rush hour Tuesday. My husband and I were here two weeks ago with some friends. I loved their fried chicken! So, I wanted to take my family here to let them see how good their food is. As we were walking my elderly parents around the corner to the door, Dave was already there holding the door open for us. It was a very nice gesture and much appreciated. The dang hot fried chicken is my go to. If you've had Gus's fried chicken and think that's the best then you haven't had the best until you've tried Tumble 22's! You have traditional then 5 different hot levels to choose from hot to stupid hot based on the type of pepper ranging from jalapeño to ghost pepper!! Gus's has zero spice levels! I promise you won't be disappointed with the perfection of spice, crispness to juiciness! It's my new favorite fried chicken spot! The prices are also cheaper than Gus's. I promise you won't be disappointed!

    This place is the rave for fried chicken. Since my dad loves it so much, we decided to drop in to try. Party of three was quickly seated on Tuesday at 7:30 PM. After which, noted that there were several parties waiting by the door. The servers are very attentive, orders and drink refills were quick. We ordered: * Heavenly eggs - heat level mild, comes 5 per order, love the candied bacon on this dish * Ceasar salad w/chicken bites - who knew cranberries and pumpkin seeds would taste so good on a Ceasar salad?! * 1/4 dark - hot heat level, perfect heat level for me, don't think I could take it any hotter. The chicken is crispy, hot in temperature, and so juicy! * 1/2 mixed - even the breast piece is juicy and tasty! * Mac & cheese side - highly recommend, cheesy! * French fries - ordered it normal, didn't want to try the fancy ones on my first visit. Crispy and fresh, no complaints. The parking was rough. I had to circle around the pits 4 times before I finally landed a spot. And they're tight so I recommend ride share to get here if you can. I can't wait to come back to try their pies and milkshakes!

    Traveling all day from Seattle to Houston. 2 hour line for the rental car. After checking into the hotel, this was my first meal of the day and it didn't disappoint. Ari, our server, girl you're a gem. She executed that balance of being attentive without making anything feel rushed or like she was hovering. She recommend the "dang hot" spice level and it was on point. The chicken was piping hot, seasoned well, and spicy. Loved the Mac and cheese and greens. We got the Szechuan fries, which were just ok for me, but enjoyed the crispiness of the fries. The PB & chocolate pie was so good, too. Just the right amount of peanut butteriness and chocolate. Perfect harmony. If I lived here, I know I would eat here all the time. Delicious food, good prices, amazing service. I couldn't have asked for more after such a long day of traveling.

    Made to perfection every single time. I've been to this location atleast 10 times and they have no missed once. Music is great. Drinks are amazing. Service is off the charts. The chef Brought my kiddos Easter eggs and watched them open them. You can tell they really care here. Love tumble.

    Large Mac-N-Cheese Large Collard Greens

    First time trying and will definitely be back! I got the 1/2 chicken with Mac and cheese. Chicken was super fresh and crispy, Macaroni was delicious! David helped me order and was super attentive and answered all my questions flawlessly

    Buffalo, Mac and Cheese, and Fries
    Andrew R.

    Absolutely one of the best chicken sandwiches I have ever had. Not a doubt in my mind. Add in some amazing mac and cheese, crispy shoestring french fries, and a great selection of cold beverages... you're well on your way to your next big addiction. The staff at Tumble 22 are happy to greet you with a smile and answer any questions you may have about the menu. The menu is built to allow you to effectively build your own custom meal with individual sandwiches and sides. Nothing was disappointing. The restaurant itself was well laid out, reasonably bright and open. There was a great bar as well with a couple TV's showing the college football games. Overall this was a great experience and I'm looking forward to my next visit already.

    Fantastic chicken. Their ranch is also amazing. The spice levels are legitimately spicy the higher you get. And their mac and cheese?? DIVINE. Excellent rec from our server. Will be back! HOWEVER. The location of this place is a PAIN. Next to an extremely busy road you'd need to make an unprotected left turn. And good luck getting Houston drivers to make room out of the kindness in their hearts. If you take the back roads, there's a train track. And our luck was terrible bc in avoiding the busy road, we ran into a giant train crossing. It took us 20 minutes of traffic to get here and we live super close. So be mindful. The food and vibes are worth it. Just don't go during rush hour dinner (even on weekdays)!! It's near a police station so you'll probably see cops and firefighters eating here too.

Then she looked at me -- pescatarian, hungry -- and said, "Add the shrimp and get the crab sauce on top." Best decision I made all day. The plate didn't stand a chance.

The croissant French toast was delicious and sweet enough to eat without syrup, which is how I had it. I would get the oxtail omelette or the croissant French toast myself, if I come back. For drinks we tried the Moscow mule and peach mimosas. The peach mimosa was a little medicinal tasting, so I'd recommend the original mimosa.
