David P. "This review is for delivery via Uber Eats about 10-15 minutes away from the location. Nut allergy friendly - stated on app and had no issues.We ordered the Fully Loaded Loud Pack ($22), Trout (2x+Fries) ($8.25), Onion Rings ($4.40), and Crack Sauce ($0.83) for 3 adults (subtotal $35.48). It came with ketchup and tartar sauce.Fully Louded Loud Pack: Wow, the portions are great here. Corn, potatoes, shrimp, egg, sausage, and rice were all seasoned well and had a good kick even without the crack sauce (which is an awesome addition). Two pieces of egg, one sausage, one piece of corn, one potato, a good amount of shrimp. Some of the shrimp felt overcooked. I wish there was some more sausage, but the rest was well shared among 2-3 people. Crawfish in the rice was a great addition. 4.5/5Trout (2x + Fries): Surprised that these were full pieces of trout, with bones and all (be careful biting in). The fries arrived crispy and seasoned. The trout felt a bit dry. 3.5/5Onion Rings: I could see these being fantastic at the location, but they do not travel well. Half arrived soggy. The ones that were still crispy were pretty good. Nothing too unique about these, though. 2/5Crack Sauce: Just get it. It's a garlic butter cajun tangy sauce that goes on anything seafood. 4.5/5Overall rating: 4/5 for great portions and flavor but with a couple misses that may be due to delivery (definitely so on the onion rings, less so on the trout and shrimp). Also, the food is pretty salty; be warned that they are heavy handed on the seasoning."

Walked right up to the counter and ordered! Not a lot of people were in there so there were plenty of booths and tables to sit in. Burgers were well seasoned. Panties are hand formed. Fries were okay. I went with my family and everyone got their own burgers and had rave reviews about them!"

Jin C. "What a great burger spot! Came here the other weekend for a wedding, and this place did not disappoint.Atmosphere - 4/5 - Located next to Killer Noodle (which we also ate at), it is in a very busy, constructiony area. Inside, very spacious. The only knock is that you must order via a kiosk at the counter (cannot order with a person)Staff - 5/5 - You do not really engage with them other than grabbing your food. However, was friendly when I received my order and gave me my condiments with no issue.What we ordered: I wasn't able to order much, as we just ate Killer Noodle. I saw Chicken and Waffles, and just had to order something haha.Food - Hot Chicken Sandwich - 4.5/5 - Other than the size, but the sandwich itself is delicious. I wish I had gotten it spicier.Strawberry Irish Creme Brulee - 5/5 - Really enjoyed this! I do recommend as it is just a great size and taste. The custard was really good.Overall, I did enjoy this place, and will be back when I visit again."

Diana N. "$25.50 for 20 wings - pretty good price for meaty wings. Wingstop is $24.49 for 20 but doesn't include dip (+$1.59). Here, with an order of 20 wings, you can choose up to FOUR flavors and get 1 dip (ranch or bleu cheese) per 10 wings. Good size wings also with plenty of meat.We got 2 FLAVORS - lemon pepper garlic parmesan & Buffalo lemon pepper (got them naked). We both preferred the 1st one, although the Buffalo sauce was still good.CONS - 3 stars though because the wings were SALTY. The ranch helped mellow it out, otherwise it would've been too much. The bf thought the drumettes were saltier than the flats. Very slow service too. Took us almost 30 minutes to get our wings.The chocolate chip cookie was amazing though! I could've ate the whole thing (it's pretty big), but we shared. It was $2.50 or something?DREAM WINGS was good to try, but I prefer wingstop. Next choice would be pluckers (bc it's more expensive than wingstop)"

DeWayne R. "Remembered, my first experience here not being very good (about two years ago), due to their being an overzealous waiter who talked our ears off about everthing from sneakers to hats and that the Korena Fried Chicken was overcooked. I always feel like some places deserve a second chance, so since I work close to this location I decided to give it a redo.Took a trip during a late lunch break, after the noon rush, and found the place pretty empty. Interestingly enough, it still took someone over f ive minutes to even acknowledge that I was even there, even though there was a lady behind the bar - just steps from me. Someone finally came and took my order of the chicken strips, fries, and a drink. While waiting, I noticed that some of the tables weren't clean. I'm sure that the lunch rush was just ending, but no one was really attending to the tables during my time there. My food came out, after a little wait, and the presentation was OK, but the fry order looked a bit light and I had to ask for ketchup, even thought there was a little place for it on the fench fry holder. I was then given half a container of ketchup (see images). The taste of the spicy sauce was nice, but after a single bite of each chicken strip the batter fell right off of the strip. I don't recall ever seeing that before. I don't know what to do after this visit. I guess we'll see."

Chip C. "After seeing some good reviews online, we decided to come out and give it a try. It's not located in the best area of town, and you can tell they've had some security concerns since there was a police officer camped out inside - never a good sign. The food itself was pretty good. I got the cajun boiled shrimp, and the cajun fries. They asked how I wanted the shrimp - mild, hot, extra hot, etc - and I chose hot. The 'hot' was very hot, and I don't want to know how spicy the extra hot would have been. It had a good flavor, but it was almost too hot to be enjoyable. The cajun fries were excellent though, and I really enjoyed them. I wish all fries were seasoned like those.Overall, I would come back since the food was good, but I'd get my food to go next time, or delivered to me."

Adam H. "I hate to be 'that guy,' but ... meh. The quality here is phenomenal, and the menu is fun. I avoided this joint because of the whole trite mac & cheese thing. But I finally caved and ordered the Chicken Parmesan Mac to-go.First, the serving size and (once again) quality of ingredients is worthy. The menu description didn't exactly describe what I received, as there was nary a bite of fried mozzarella in the dish. There was plenty of fried -- and very dry -- chicken; the mac was cheesier than an episode of 'Three's Company.' Sauce was decent, except that there was little more than a tablespoon, which is hardly enough to define the dish. Hedging one's bets on a classic American dish that (mostly) is based on a blue box is risky, but these folks know their mac & cheese. It's good stuff, but I was mostly unimpressed. $14. Really? Good luck, guys."

The weekly specials and big tv screens draw families having a night out, bros watching a game, couples sharing the same side of the booth...I've been here a handful of times, and I've always enjoyed everything I've ordered. Tonight, the Fried Mushroom appetizer, and my Chicken Cobb Salad hit the spot! I think I might try the Shrimp Tacos next time! By the way, this casual bar & grille offer some of the best beer & cocktail prices this side of Grand Parkway. ($5 for a Jack & Coke).My server was a friendly, efficient young man in a black baseball cap named James. He had tables inside, tables outside on the playground patio, and I even saw him delivering a to-go order to a customer.The staff all seem to help each other out.

We started off with some drinks and appetizers. Smokers paradise was great, although they were out of Mezcal, tequila was the perfect substitute and it was a tasty cocktail. We shared the truffle bread and Seoul fries. The truffle bread is a mushroom lovers garlic bread dreams, 10 out of 10 would recommend! The Seoul fries were also incredible, perfect crispy fries with lots of yummy kimchi and other toppings, and they don't go skimpy on the toppings. I also got the bibimbop which I added fried chicken to and it was super good. I can't wait to go back and try more of the menu!"

We came by and ordered for dine in, which was a mistake; the chicken took about 40 min to come out. Would recommend calling ahead or doing takeout going forward. We got curly fries and a whole chicken. Portion size is very fair and the chicken is sauced very well and overall very solid KFC. It definitely rivals Krisp for me for the best chicken joint in the area."

Jando S. "The pizza game in Houston is a tough pill to swallow for overall credibility of the food scene and no place epitomizes this more than Two Guys Pizzeria. As one of several pizza spots (#1) in the immediate vicinity, this might seem like a good sign for West U / Med Center pizza lovers. Unfortunately, I can't give them my blessing given how subpar the pizza is and more importantly, the unpleasant service.Med Center Plaza has a number of bizes plugged in and Two Guys is located between Southwell's (#2) and SportsClips Haircuts. On the surface it looks like an ideal casual eatery to come in, enjoy a slice, and chill out. There's outdoor seating and decent number of tables and chairs on the interior. There's always a steady flow of people, but it's never that busy.Normally, I try to grade on a curve when it comes to H-Town pizza. Whenever a place calls themselves a New York pizzeria, I have to grade them on how close they are to the real thing and here's the verdict: This is not New York pizza.And in some ways, it's not even good pizza. Granted the schtick here is their giant slices, but this is hardly comparable to giant slices even in NYC (#2). The pizza here is messy in that the cheese doesn't necessarily hold well, the crust is gummy, and the sauce is very mediocre. I appreciate novelty in many forms, but never with poor execution. I would highly recommend adding peppers and parm to bring it to form, but that's not enough to save this pizza.There's more than just pizza but their calzones, subs, and pizza rolls are not their primary attraction and it shows. The subs are kind of just slapped together and unlike the pizza, is not exactly an abundant combo of fixings. Their pizza rolls and calzones are stuffed quite well, but a semi-salt bomb flavor wise.The service leaves a lot to be desired. I've seen mishaps for pizza toppings or charges in my takeout experiences here but they're usually resolved quickly upon noticing. However the issue is that I've had to check *every* time and more often than not, something is up. The staff behind the counter isn't the warmest, which would be a non-issue if the food was outstanding.One is looking at about $60 for a full giant pie and roughly $25-30 for the others. Slices range from $5-9 and toppings are .75 extra. They have a range of other little things such as auto-gratuity for 4 people or more, no coupons accepted, and 49 cents for credit card usage. __________(#1) It might not look like it, but there might be a half-a-dozen pizzerias in just these 2-3 blocks.(#2) This is how you do it.

You can't help but to buy goods from the energetic and loud lady that proudly exclaims that most foods and desserts are homemade. She's really friendly, and most certainly adds to the experience. This is a small place and they are very COVID 19 conscience. Wear a mask to enter, put on gloves they provide at the entrance, don't touch their counter, take a clean pen to sign your receipt, e.t.c! I will not worry about food poisoning with this restaurant. The food itself is doable. You can bring every family member here because they don't over season the food. You get the soul food flavor without the worries about health declining with every delicious bite. I had the wing sampler and truly the honey glazed wings stood out the most. Make certain to get those. The desserts are homemade as well. I need to go back for the 7up cake, but the banana pudding made me wish I had more. I recommend giving them a try."

This place is still a bit fresh, offering A variety of Korean dishes.The fried seafood platter was my favorite. It came with fried calamari, fried oysters, onion rings, and French fries. The fried oysters were spot on. Good enough to share with 5+ people. Also came with 3 different sauces, but I didn't think it was needed. The crawfish was decent price at about $8 per lb. Two flavors of Louisiana or garlic butter. You can pick your level of spicy. I chose garlic butter spicy instead of extra spicy. Careful on extra spicy. The seasonings on the crawfish were good and flavorful. The crawfish was also at good size at this time of the season. Some other items to fill up your tummy are their fried rice and spicy seafood noodles. The spicy seafood noodles can feed about 3 people. It was filled with seafood, noodles, veggies, and one spicy broth. This item came last and it was a struggle to finish since we were already so full on the food. Overall, services were good. If we needed anything, then it was brought to us. Our party had a great time here."

However they're at least 275 times better than Buffalo Wild Wings - trust me.The service here was nice, the wings were pretty hot (but we'd still like them more sizzling right out of the fryer). By Houston standards I can give just about 4 stars. If this was Buffalo they'd be 2 star wings - problem is I lived in Buffalo for decades.Luckily then, they're in Houston. And a local chain, with plenty of other spots too, some of them not as tasty as this one."

Vinh N. "Pretty good pizza with the perks of the great prices. They don't skimp on the toppings and the Desi pizzas makes things unique. The Spicy Ride isn't that spicy but the toppings liven up the chutney base. The Paneer Tikka was interesting also. The tikka seasoning wasn't strong but the paneer gives the slices a different texture and comes off like a seasoned ricotta. We need more fusion pizza joints in this city, especially since so many of the non-chain takeouts are owned by non-Italians.I wish they were close to me so that delivery wouldn't give me a cold pizza, but that's what a hot oven is for. As others have noted, it is in area where sketchy people just loiter around the convenience store next door. I don't know why people do that, but I've got more exciting options in my life."
