“ Affordable and delicious! A chicken sandwich with fries for 13.99 in Gaslamp is one of the best deals you can find. And the food is good! The chicken is juicy, and the portions are large. Order at the counter where you will be given a number, and then take a seat. Your food will be delivered to your table. Our food was ready within 10 minutes and served hot. ”
“ Live a few blocks away from here and tried this “newish” place for the first time. Sat at the bar area after ordering. Staff was super friendly and nice to see how great they all got along and helped eachother out. I got the mild heat and was perfect. Sandwhich was great, sauces were awesome and the crinkle style fries were crisp and delicious. Definitely a good stop of in the heart of the Gaslamp Quarter. ”
“ Quick lunch just a block away from the SD Convention Center! Ordered through their website for pickup and glad I did because there was a long queue at lunch time. The Southwest Salad was good, though I wish there was more lettuce/salad fixings. The chicken nuggets as toppings were delicious! ”

“ I’ve been to Houston Texas Hot Chicken a few times now and I like it a lot. The chicken is always delicious, super flavorful and cooked just right. One of the things I really appreciate is that it’s open late, which is huge since there aren’t many good food options in the Gaslamp after 11. It’s definitely become a go-to spot for late-night eats! ”
