    This location is very poorly ran. It seems like a lack of management. The cashier tries his best but there is no sense of urgency or customer service from the back staff. The women move slow and casual and I saw customers continuously get frustrated over wrong orders and wait times. The kitchen staff isn't reading the notes. The place wasn't even busy for it to this backed up. They either need better training or an additional worker. The location by Tiffany Treats is much better.

    Eeeehhhmazing! When I ate here all I could think was "Never back down, never give up" because I couldn't stop eating this ehmazing food. And for the service, it couldn't be faster, by the time I found a place to sit my food was already waiting for me. This was an exquisite dining experience and I can confidently give it my seal of approval. Dil Doe signing out.

    Urban Fries Country (No Heat) and Added Fresh Grilled Jalapeños
    Laura W.

    Ordered for delivery and food arrived hot and quick! Instead of a chicken Sandwich, I decided to try the Urban Fries, which is not my typical style of food. Selected Country (No Heat) and added grilled Jalapeños. It was good but not something I'd think to re-order. The chicken was great! Juicy, tender, and seasoned perfectly. Jalapeños had a good kick to them. I liked the Mac and cheese but found myself picking it out to eat it separately from the rest of the dish. The pickles were my favorite and I wish there were more! So crunchy and delicious. There's something sweet in the dish and I think it was honey. I'm not a sweet and savory fan. Regardless, the food was good but not a top pick for me.

    Buffalo Mac fries

    Been to Urban bird off the Katy Fwy and the food is good over there (even though at time the tables smell like old dirty water.) so when they opened up this new one on 99 and Morton we had to try them out. Not only is it an Urban Bird but they also partnered with Chronic Chicken fries, which I have never heard of but their menu looks super good. Anyways my fellow Yelpers needless to say we tried the Buffalo Mac fries and the Tijuana fries and not only do they look amazing but they taste amazing too. The cashier who helped us was friendly, reminds me of Tyler the creator (its a compliment ) didnt catch his name but was friendly and had a good attitude. We will be coming back here for sure to try the multiple fries they have. Great job Urban Bird!

    The take home cheese

    The take home cheese we received is definitely yesterday's cheese that went cold and back into the microwave can't even eat or enjoy it!

    Customer service is awful!!! Can't believe they just open with their attitude. No acknowledgment to customers coming in. They were more interested in each other than the customers. Food is just ok nothing special! Employee drink in prep area. First time, don't have to return!

    JJ, the cashier, on his phone as I'm waiting to pay.

    My wife and I love urban bird, and decided to try this location while visiting famiy...a mistake we won't make again. The cashier, JJ was awful. We got to the counter where JJ was scrolling on his phone...he didn't greet us, he didn't ask for our order, he just stood there. I told him what we wanted, one Thai Fighter to go, he said nothing to us, just tapped the screen a few times before returning to his phone. I assumed it was time to pay and tapped my card against the reader. He said "not yet" and finally put his phone down for a moment to ring us up, just to pick it back up again when I went to pay. We got our food and left, and made it home before we realized he had given us the wrong food. By the time we got back it was busy, I waited in the line and told JJ that we had been given food we didn't order, to which he loudly responded "man, I repeated it..." Before throwing the food I brought back in the trash and telling the two women working with him that I needed the food I ordered, blaming me, saying again that he repeated my order twice, and acting like I was inconveniencing him, and everythone there by asking for the food I paid for. I told him I'd rather have a refund at this point, which he declined, telling me that the manager wasn't there and he couldn't refund me. He was very rude as he handed me my order, telling me to "be sure I check my order this time" which is fair, I should have checked before we left, and JJ shouldn't have been on his phone while I was ordering, maybe if he was actually paying attention he wouldn't have rung me up wrong. The food itself was alright, and the restaurant wasn't the cleanest either, not the best urban bird we've had. We don't recommend this location at all.

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!

It normally comes with their house sauce, but I added the house‑made ranch since people on Google were raving about it. If you choose any heat level, it defaults to Nashville style breading; Coop's Classic is reserved for kids meals or no‑heat tenders. They asked if I wanted to swap the fries for something else. I asked what counted as an even exchange, and the only option was coleslaw--which the Double Clucker already comes with--so that made no sense whatsoever. I stuck with the fries. Oddly, the meal doesn't include a drink, so I added an Oreo milkshake since that also had good reviews. The staff was very friendly, and the milkshake came out first and fast. They served it to my table in the empty dining room. Flavor was fine, but it didn't come with the cherry shown in the photos and included in the menu description. Worse yet, it was extremely watery--super runny, not cold, and definitely not "Frosty" as advertised. See my videos. Big disappointment. When the food arrived, the tender itself was great--moist and flavorful. The mild heat level barely registered for me, but the ranch dip was better than the house sauce dip. The coleslaw didn't do it for me. It lacked flavor, and the cabbage pieces were cut way too large. Lastly, the fries. Oh boy. Not refrigerator cold, but definitely cool. Not warm, not hot--just... cool. And ack. Overall, I can only recommend the tenders. They do sell them à la carte for $4 and change, and those are the only thing worth getting that I tried. The sides and the milkshake were just a huge letdown.

Thus, we were literally in shock when we entered into the venue and realized that it is a SIT-DOWN RESTAURANT! I didn't think it would be fast food style like Popeye's or KFC. However, I imagined it would be along the line of Cane's, but a little more upscale. My first reaction was, "Aww man, I'm going to have to pay more for something that is already sort of pricey." I'm thinking in terms of tipping. HOWEVER, I actually had a really great time here. The menu is simple, yet unique simultaneously with monthly special burgers and Korean inspired flavors. I LOVE the fact that you can substitute the crispy chicken for GRILLED. I'm all about eating out, enjoying food, but also trying to select better options. Healthy eating doesn't mean boring! This place seems like an American/Korean fusion restaurant, or an Americanized version of Bon Chon. The vibe is really cozy, intimate, and chill. It's a great spot to casually hang out with friends or family. The wait for the chicken was long, BUT it was worth the wait. The food was hot and fresh. The Korean BBQ OG Grilled Chicken Sandwich - It was huge! Even though I am a petite 95 lb lady, I devoured that sandwich. The flavor wasn't an authentic Korean flavor, but it wasn't bad! It was more sour and salty for my taste. I think it would balance out more if there were no pickles, and a mixture of the kimchi carrot slaw + regular mayo based coleslaw. Szechuan Fries - The Szechuan mustard sauce is powerful and incredibly overwhelming. I do NOT recommend that sauce at all. I think if you order these fries, just OMIT that mustard sauce. I felt like all my sinuses cleared up and my eye balls were about to pop out. Dirty Fries - You can't go wrong with cheese fries. I am not a sour person, so I didn't enjoy the pickles on the fries. Our server, Brenna, was INCREDIBLE! She is the main reason why this review is getting a 5 star. She didn't know that it was basically our first time and she still gave us exceptional service. She was friendly, patient, and sweet. We ordered the Szechuan Fries because it was a free offer upon signing up for their rewards program. I told her I didn't like the mustard sauce and she offered to get us the Dirty Fries! I was like, "What?!" The fries were already free, so I didn't expect her to even offer a substitution. ALSO, for the Kid's Meal, she let us know that the side could be substituted for something else at no extra charge. If she didn't make that known to us, we would have had no idea. I'm glad she mentioned it because the boys LOVE mac & cheese, so that was perfect. Also, we were already getting fries, so it helped us to get more variety. All in all, the place is a little expensive, but I had a great time. The service was superb, the food was great, and I noticed that they are involved in the community. I love supporting businesses that give back. Thus, I would recommend trying this place out, even if it's just once!

Boy was I surprised to be seated by a hostess only to glance around to find a bar, enclosed patio and semi open kitchen. Did the meal itself differ from its fast casual counterparts? Not by much, but the offerings were more robust. I love to see pie on the menu alongside shakes, and while Mac and cheese and fries are welcome, orange chicken, Korean spices, broccoli salad, collards and heavenly eggs are a welcome change of pace. Our first trip (dine in) was about a 4-5 star experience. I waiter was not the most attentive and the food took quite awhile but the experience was positive enough for me to return. The second trip was a drive thru experience and it was...not as pleasant. Our service wasn't the best, our attendant less than enthused to be doing their job. A matter of fact, I felt like I was bothering her by ordering. While my food was fine, my sandwich came without napkins and again the food (one sandwich) took quite awhile. I'm unsure if I'll return with so many options in the area, but I'm glad I experienced them twice!
