This place was AMAZING! First Time, here, in Round Rock. A friend took me, +he ordered the "Smash Burger Mac Fries" for me. I asked for a 1/2 order of it. (I COULD eat it, ALL!) It was Delicious! (Oh, I didn't even offer some to my friend... I'm Greedy!) Ambiance was great. It wasn't too Loud OR Quiet; it felt Lively!! read more

Its been yearsssssss since Ive done a review on here.. that's how disappointing & gross our $52 meal was. Im still looking at my plate, disappointed. I knew better when I seen buddy put a sealed bag of cooked helotes in water to warm it, that this was 50/50 on good, but DAMN. The chicken tenders, tasty. Juicy & not small. The plain is basically like eating a canes tender.. boring. The lemon pepper & bbq ones were a lil better but very light on the flavor. Like, very light. Mid at best. The sweet potato waffle fries, fkn trash! They HAD to have been warmed/prepped in a microwave bc there isnt a CRISP to be found. Soggy and undercooked. The white mac. Horrible. Bagged boiled noodles & 50 gallons of cheese sauce that has not a pinch of flavor. It was so gross. But the one that made me spit out my food & write this review was having to wring the grease outta my "Texas Toast". 1st of all why tf do you use toast to line the bottom of the chicken box & seal it up?? I rolled a tender into a piece of bread & took a bite & it was like a mouth of melted butter. I was immediately grossed out. I literally smashed & smooshed the toast, wringing it out & it was like a wet towel. Dripping w grease. That was it for me. This was a definite waste of money!! Idk how this place was so packed!!!! read more

I was torn on 3 or 4 starts. Ultimately went with 4 because the food was too good to deny a start. The restaurant was super messy. Not dirty, but they were clearly overwhelmed with the traffic they had. there were 10+ drivers waiting to pick up meals which clogged up the small restaurant as well. The staff were nice, but also seemed overwhelmed. Our meal never came out despite asking several times. Finally they remade it for us. I'm going to chalk it up to being a Friday evening. The food itself was DELICIOUS!!!! We were saying this replaces our other fast good chicken options based on food alone. Perfectly fried. The cole slaw was delicious. Waffles were fluffy but not soggy. We loved the seasonings we tried (dill pickle and mild). Excellent food! read more

I ordered take out for my whole company in Cedar Park. I think most of them enjoyed the food (they selected Urban Bird). However, I ordered a chicken sandwich, and asked for pickles, tomatoes and lettuce. What I got was a chicken sandwich literally drowned in cole slaw (actual thick, drippy cole slaw, like what you get at Canes on the side.) As a result, the sandwich was soggy and cold. So while their chicken is quite good, whoever is making sandwiches over there needs to read this! read more

Everything was so good. We got the chicken and waffles and the meatless tenders with fries. Everyone was nice and knowledgeable. We sat outside in a shaded area. The weather was nice. I will be going back. read more

Urban is my go to spot for chicken. My kids and I enjoy coming here. The service is fast and they are polite. There days way you have a language barrier interaction; however, they have staff who will assist if needed. The chicken here is very juicy and tasty. It is never dry. My favorite is the chicken and waffles. I like it no other way honestly. I keep telling myself I am going to try something new. I am set with my favorite meal. The ambiance of the place can be quite warm during the summer months, and that is due how the front of the building facing the west when the sun sets. There are plenty of seats to includ two large tables with stools and an outside patio area with tables and umbrellas. Parking is hit or miss as the area is usually full when I come, but I still manage to find parking. I recommend trying this place at least once for the experience and hopefully you will like it like I do. read more

I've been here a few times now and the food is always good. The tenders are huge, the elote fries are delicious. Love the chicken and waffles the most. Staff is friendly but not really attentive. Restaurant is pretty small but I like getting it to go anyway. Best part is they are open late which is unusual these days. read more

Came during the "winter storm" for a friends birthday (very casual). Menus are located at the front when you walk in, decided to get the Buffalo Mac based on my friends recommendation. I enjoyed it and had enjoy to take with me Togo. I will likely reheat in my air fryer because the sauce will definitely make the fries soggy, however felt there was a good portion of fries, Mac, chicken and sauce present. Food came out in about 5 minutes and I enjoyed it. I saw the videos for the milk shake and I was tempted however I don't need 20 oz worth of milkshake so in that, I wish they offered a smaller size. read more

Great fried chicken! The fries were nice and crispy, the toast was buttery and soft, and the sauce was also flavorful and slightly sweet. I got the hot cheeto mac n cheese as a side and it was pretty decent! Although i wish i tried the waffles. Maybe next time! read more

I LOVED everything we tried from here. The staff were very nice and helpful. The ambiance was amazing with good music playing and cleanliness was up-to par. Their elote fries were so delicious! And so were the urban fries. Chicken is well seasoned and very well cooked. Service was fast, we did not have to wait a lot. Best part is that they are HALAL. 10/10 I definitely recommend! read more

Casual clean chicken spot to get tenders or a chicken sandwich. I usually get the family pack meal for 37.99 which is enough to feed three people. The chicken here is always crispy and juicy on the inside. I would suggest getting their lemon pepper tenders with the maple sriracha sauce. Also, the fries are always seasoned well and I love that they offer 3 lemonade selections(mango, strawberry, blueberry). read more

First, the place is cute, especially with the giant rooster! I made the mistake of getting the Buffalo Mac without realizing how hot it is...to me! If you are a heat champ with food, this should be a breeze for you. If you didn't grow up eating spicy food and you don't prefer heat, this is not for you! I could not finish my meal due to it making me feel uncomfortable and too full! I tried using extra ranch to cool it down, it didn't help. Everything is absolutely DRENCHED in the buffalo sauce. This place is also a bit pricey for fast food. I'd be willing to try it one more time and choose a food that doesn't wreck me. read more

Ordered this Togo and wife picked it up, i ended up getting the second to hottest chicken strips while my wife got the Mac fries and chicken bowl and sandwich. Beginning with the sandwich..... i highly recommend avoiding this due to extreme mediocrity..... it lacked flavor and love to say the least . The bowl she had was probably the best thing but was a little too much due to everything not working together and clashing flavors . Now the strips good lord the strips were hotter than satans ex girlfriend at a pool party. It isn't for the faint of heart but still pretty tasty. The sauce and drinks were a really good addition as well and were surprisingly top tier! All in all I'd give this place a 8/10 read more

Came back for a second visit. This one wasn't that great. Staff seemed a bit 'off'. Facilities were adequate. However, the food was a miss. While the fries were fresh and hot - like I like them to be - the chicken (Nashville Hot) was too much for my tastebuds. If I do return, it won't be for that level of spicy. read more

Urban Bird Hot Chicken - The creature - Chicken Shop Near Me - Round Rock, Texas

Similar to Tumble 22, although the sandwich I had was a bit drier. Fries were great. I think this place has potential but just needs to dial in the moisture of the chicken sandwich, could be a hit or miss in this case. Surprisingly, it was the chocolate chip cookie that stole the show. For a pre packaged cookie, it had a great taste, soft chewy texture. Hands down would come back for their chocolate chip cookie, maybe even the sandwich just to see if it was a fluke. read more

I really don't like to leave one star reviews, even if I do have genuinely bad experiences. However, every single thing about this place wasn't great from the start. Now I like to try to go to places and try new things unbiased despite the hype or despite the bad reviews; I understand that a lot of restaurants have good and bad days. So let me start by saying that this place was overpriced, and I was fully expecting that as a Nashville hot chicken place. I definitely think that tasty food is worth a dollar amount. And honestly after eating here I can confidently say that KFC has a better Nashville hot chicken. Not only did the delivery driver forget my large drink that was $3.99, but the sides are extremely small, the chicken tenders are two for $9, and not to mention the most important part of Nashville hot chicken; the chicken was incredibly small when they boast their size, but they are also dry! Their mac & cheese is made in a flavorless white sauce that is too saucy for southern mac & cheese if you ask me. Literally just taste like salty noodles. And they throw a side of crunched up hot Cheetos? The fries were only partially seasoned and were incredibly soggy and blonde. If you are experienced in Nashvillehot chicken, do not even bother, wasting your time here. read more

I came in on October 11th of this year with Thing Two to get some food for take-out. What we got: Nashville Mac The fries are tossed in a house seasoning and topped with white cheese and chicken. The amount of cheese and accouterments drowned the crinkle cut fries, which rendered them soggy (insert sad face here). The portions served here are large enough for two adults or, in my case, one 17 year old man-boy, aka Thing One. The white cheese mix atop these fries seemed to be the type that comes out of the can, which I am not a fan of. Buffalo Mac This is essentially the same dish as the Nashville Mac (subsitie the Buffalo Sauce on this for Comeback Sauce on the Nashville Mac, and it's the same entree). The soggy fries beneath the chicken on this entree are attributed to the heavy cheese and sauce piled on high. The 'buffalo' on this entree provides a tangy, vinegary aspect that some may find pleasing. The amount of food offered on the french fry entries are hefty. However, the wait time on these entrees was greater than 30 minutes, which is hard to fathom as there were only three other guests in the establishment at the time of our visit who already had their food. Additionally, there were several employees here who seemed to be conversing around the cooking area as opposed to cooking it while I waited for my food. I guess these employees were following the 'time is relative' principle. read more

I usually go to Hattie B's or Dave's hot chicken or even Austin's local Tumble22. We are a big hot chicken fans and like try new hot chicken. Places. We came here on this past Sunday and ordered tender meal and sandwich meal. Also ordered a tender on the side along with a small Mac and cheese. We did tender meal mild and sandwich meal Extra Hot. Even the tender on the side I did Extra hot. Which Xtra hot had decent spice to it the tenders were super small. I feel $4 for this small tender is a bit steep. Service was super fast and swift. Noticed employee cleaning the tables which is a good sign. It wasn't busy like Dave's hot chicken usually is but that's good that we can eat in peace and don't have to wait too long for our food. Overall decent food but I personally think tenders were too small for the price. For drinks we had the lemonades. They had 3 tries of lemonades.. strawberry, mango and blueberry. read more

Service was fantastic, and we got through the line quick. I ordered the strawberry lemonade and Tijuana fries. It was a ton of food. I ate about half. Great combination of flavors, with the lime adding that tang of citrus to tie it all together. Fries were tasty, and the chicken tender with just the right amount of spice. Strawberry Lemonade was light and refreshing. I'm refilling my glass before I leave. Only downfall... it's hot in here! However having been in this location at other restaurant s, I know that's just this suite. read more

Great food and improving service! Food: HUGE tenders with great flavors!!! Reasonable price for its portion size. They have different spice levels to choose from and they are dry rub. I consider myself to hand spice well, but I feel Nashville Hot is good enough for me. I accidentally ordered the "Burn You Twice" once, and yes, indeed it did burn me twice. Ears were muffled for a little while eating lol so be careful! They also season their fries but I feel like it can be a little too salty. Love the potato buns and slaws. Their mango lemonade is da bomb! They are a new restaurant, so when they first opened, the service was quite messy and long wait time...BUTTT I have returned a couple of times a definitely a lot of improvement. The food comes out a little faster and correct. I just don't quite understand how they have such a system that looks very efficient from the outside but can take so long to deliver food when staff are just standing there. Sometimes, the cashier person just needs to add a little smile :) Overall, low key vibe, make sure you're not in a rush going somewhere after read more

Attention chili heads and spicy food lovers. We tried urban bird for the first time and we will definitely be back. Husband got chicken and waffles - mild. The tender was very flavorful and he loved the combo. It came with butter, syrup, and special sauce on the side. I thought I was a tough guy and ordered fire in the hole tenders (their spiciest). I'm a huge chili head and always get the highest heat level anywhere (Thai hot, stupid hot at T22, etc.) I was like, "pshh I can handle it.) I got 4 tenders only. They were so spicy, at one point tears were involuntary coming out of my eyes. I couldn't talk but I just wanted to prove I could do it. I couldn't take it anymore so went inside to buy a drink and they saw my face and without me even speaking he handed me a glass and then asked if I wanted milk. He was so kind. I got my Coke Zero and went back outside to try and eat more. Still trying to prove to myself that I could handle it (I'm foolish!). I couldn't make it through tender #3 of 4. I went inside to refill my Coke Zero and this time an other guy asked me if I was ok. I told them jokingly that the fire in the hole tender had defeated me. They insisted to take my remaining tender away and handed me a Nashville hot spice level one to try. So friendly and kind. I am a huge Tumble 22 (stupid hot) fan but dare I say I liked these as much or better. Next time I'll get one heat level below this one (and I'm sure I'll foolishly try the stupid hot ones again one day) If you like a spicy, you will loves these. Their ranch was good. Their other house sauce was like a Big Mac sauce and had sweetness. Kiddo got fries with macaroni and cheese and loved it. Please like my review and photos if they are helpful! read more

First, I would like to say that the name does match the food. Yes, there is hot sauce, but no hot chicken. Service: The cashier was really pleasant and willing to assist all customers who came in. The register is positioned in the wrong place. A line is built around customers trying to eat and confusion to where the line ends or starts. In addition, the door to the kitchen sits right next to the register, which creates another confusion. The menu board was out of order on visit, so you don't know what they serve unless you have one of the stacked menus sitting next to the register. Also, the online pick-up menu is different from the PDF menu that is available. Food: Not cooked to order. I am very disappointed to it being my first time. Items on the menu sound good. However, it did not come out to my expectations of me and several other customers. Ambiance: Again, the setup in this restaurant is all wrong and makes it confusing to what is going on. Overall: It is hard to recommend to place with so many unsuccessful business requirements that should be made. Staff is very dysfunctional and seems to not know how to handle big crowds. Staff doesn't seem to know how to work together and stay disciplined. Unfortunately, I will not be back until improvements are made. read more

I think I've gone here like 10 times and have enjoyed every one. When they first opened, the service was slow but the food was fresh. Now the service is fast but the chicken is usually already fried when you get there. It's still good though. I've tried a couple of the dry rubs and they were all good. My favorite meal is the chicken and waffles. They have the best waffles. I would stay away from the mac and cheese if you're looking for good seasoning. There's plenty of seating inside and outside. You may have to share a table though as some tables are really big. read more

I thought it was good! My chicken sandwich and chicken fries were everything I personally love in those dishes. The chicken sandwich wasn't the best I've ever had (and I wish they'd use one chicken patty instead of two tenders) but it was still very delicious to me. Their bird sauce is good as well. All of their lemonade offerings were great too and the staff was on their A game when I went on a Saturday evening. read more

Food. The best and most incredible fried chicken of all time. No comparison to any fast food chicken tenders. I am a mild heat kinda girl but my husband tried to put on his big boy pants for the SUPER hot and could only eat one tender. Haha. It's not for the faint of heart. The best dish I go back for over and over is the Chicken & Waffles. Full stop. You need to try it to believe it. Don't forget to pet the chicken while you are there, and the staff is the best in the business. I highly recommend ordering ahead the line can get crazy long but it is soooo worth it! The cool vibe rolls out to the patio too. This is a hidden gem that has never disappoints. read more

We walked in and saw the giant cock on the table, SURPRISE!! It's in the same location where vertskebab used to be. There's seating for small crowds and they offer delivery via Uber/door dash. I ordered the tender basket with Xtra hot & sweet potato fries. The portion is a little small for the price. The sweet potato fries are nice and crispy with just enough salt. The tenders are "jumbo" on the menu but are the size of premade tenders you'd buy at the store. It comes with bird sauce which is their version of thousand island. I'm not really a fan and didn't know I could get a different sauce. Nashville hot = mild jalapeno Xtra hot = serano or habanero Overall not bad but could be better flavor in the seasoning. It's mostly heat, would like to have some savory flavor added. Honestly think tumble 22 has a leg up on portion, flavor and price compared to these guys. read more

Very solid chicken sandwhich spot! This is my second time here (first time was at a Yelp elite event in houston), so I knew what to expect. The sandwiches were super hot and delicious. It was really tough to eat this time for some reason, seemed liked the burger was covered in sauce, so it kept getting over my hands/messy. Beautiful burn flavor had a nice kick to it. The lemonades were tasty as well. It's a little bit pricey for the cost of a chicken sandwhich, but it is very tasty so that could be why. read more

We enjoy urban bird but recently went in to order food for my family which included myself husband and our 7 year old. We asked for lemon pepper sauce, and a mild sauce and realize when we made it all the way to our home in Hutto that the highest level of sauce was drizzled on everything and couldn't be eaten. It was far too late to come back so I called repeatedly no one ever answered the phone, we submitted an inquiry via the website for a call back and still nothing . We threw $48.11 of food in the trash. I am still waiting on someone to acknowledge and it's been 5 days read more

Food is delicious and chicken tenders are big, so I love that it's a big portion. There are several spice level to choose from. I can eat spicy food and find that the mild level is pretty spicy. If you really want a great kick, go for Nashville hot. Fries are okay, a bit heavy with the seasoning so some pieces are super salty. Customer service is great. I would recommend them having one or two more cashiers to speed up the process. Only one. They're new so be patient with them as they're working through some kinks. read more
