Big Chicken

Love this place, we come here a lot. Best chicken tenders I've ever had. Like really juicy, crispy and bok-licious. This is my old classmate Shaq's place. He's a great guy and hits the bullseye with this chicken shaq.

I visited during happy hour and appreciated the value offering. The discounted margaritas and other menu items really made my day. I enjoyed the fries and chicken tenders both of which were served hot with just the perfect amount of outer crunch. Service was attentive and I also liked the clean nicely laid out space.

I visited this location today and had a great experience ! The staff from the manager on down were super friendly.. I got a Buffalo Chicken Sandwich Combo when fries. The sandwich was great! Perfect amount of sauce.. the taste was great and it was a good quality sandwich. The fries were good as well and I love restaurants with a variety of drink selections that differ from the standard coke/pepsi products.. which they have as well. I’ll definitely return to get what I purchase today or try something different 🙂

I ordered Big Chicken on Uber Eats and it totally hit the spot. The wings were super crispy and really juicy, and they came with four sauces—ranch, buffalo, honey mustard, and BBQ—so you get a bit of everything and they have more sauces. The onion rings stayed crunchy too which is a win since sometimes delivery can make food soggy. I’d recommend onion rings! Overall, it was a hassle-free, tasty experience that I’d definitely do again.

Big Chicken in Midtown Houston is hands down the best spot for chicken sandwiches, period! Shaq really delivered with this one. The chicken is so tasty and fresh, and the flavors are absolutely unmatched. The crispy crinkle fries are seasoned to perfection, and the real ice cream milkshakes… wow, just wow. Every bite feels like a treat! It’s hard to believe this place is so new because it’s already my number one choice over any other chicken sandwich spot. I hope Big Chicken expands to more cities like DC and Miami because this experience needs to be shared far and wide. Highly recommend checking it out—you won’t be disappointed!

Great new place to eat and hang out. The food tasted great, the staff was very friendly and accommodating. Full bar (beer& liquor) to sit and watch sports. Good sized dining area. And free Fusbal table and free NBA Jam arcade game. Self serve/free refills on soft drinks. Definitely a good try. See pictures for menu and prices.

Happy opening day! Great friendly crews, with relatively efficient and fast service. Plenty of options to choose for ranging from sandwiches, wings, popcorn chicken, salads, and varietals of kids menu. I opted for the hot Nashville chicken sandwich, which packed some heat but not overpowering to the point that you think you're on an episode of the Hot Ones. The fries were amazingly well done, crispy and salted almost to perfection. Popcorn chicken IMO is the weakest link in my menu today. It's not quite as seasoned, but it's still a good snack option. There are plenty of sauces to select from, my favorite I think was the big shack sauce. Excited for y'alls big success here in HTown!

Overall a wonderful experience! The food was good, service was excellent, and the restaurant was very clean. The service was quick, Damante who took our order was very friendly and explained the menu well. 5 star service from him! I ordered the #4 Shaq attack, and I loved it! The chicken was def the star of the show. It was tender and juicy, and the jalapeño coleslaw added a nice amount of crunch and sweetness. My bf ordered the popcorn chicken and was not super impressed. The chicken was good, but the pieces were small, and not really worth it for the price. I was a fan of the crinkle cut fries. They were salty, fluffy, and crisp on the outside. The Shaq sauce is pretty similar to cane’s sauce, but more tomatoey and peppery. Solid! The ranch is really good according to bf, very buttermilk-y. The tables and floors were clean. each table had full size paper towels

Food was delicious. Wings were extremely big, and Mac and cheese was pretty tasty considering it's not a southern food spot. I truly enjoyed the double chocolate milkshake. Perfect for a breakup or a sad day lol The margaritas were delicious. I believe happy hour is from 3-7 Definitely will be coming back!

My husband came here on duty at work with his coworkers. They had asked about the heat level on the flavors. The cashier told them which one was "the least hot/spicy" so they all ordered that flavor as most of them can't do spicy for health reasons and some don't like the spice. I'm not sure if they were pranking the group / doing it intentionally because of their profession or what.... But, they gave ALL of them the hottest level possible. This is seriously not something to joke about and is not what you should be doing to your customers. We were so excited to try this place and after this I would go as far as telling everyone not to come due to what happened. Buyer be warned as you may receive the hottest level instead of the least.

The product is nothing like the large, crispy, pieces of chicken twice the size of the brioche bun overflowing with sauce in the pictures. It's a three ounce cut smaller than the bun, which is cheap like a supermarket hamburger bun, and it's lightly breaded and soggy with an almost undetectable amount of sauce, which is kind of tasteless. The chicken is exactly the same as the premade frozen Tyson chicken you put in the microwave. For a place that is called "big" chicken and has an extremely short menu with only one main product, it's stunning how carelessly and poorly the chicken sandwich is done. But that didn't stop them from overpricing the combo at $11.

I really enjoyed eating here! The man at the counter was super nice and answered all our questions about the menu very easily. He also came around while we were eating to make sure everything was good. I got the original big chicken sandwich, and they ask if you want to add lettuce, tomato, and cheese, so I added lettuce and tomato. The chicken was big, well seasoned, and super juicy and there was a TON of lettuce so a bunch fell out. But that's fine because it was delicious either way. My mom has Celiac so she can't eat gluten and they were able to do grilled chicken tenders for her. Everything on the menu can be made grilled upon request. The tenders were also super juicy and she said she loved them. We both got crinkle cut fries but if you get a combo you can change the fries to any other side. The combo came with two sauces and if you get separate items (eg. tenders and a fry) each item comes with one sauce. I was surprised there weren't more people dining, but we did go for a late lunch. The space is big and was very clean. They also have a bar off to the side. Would come again!

Sometimes getting out of the car when wanting an easy dinner is the way to go. Big Chicken on Yale quietly opened this past week. Stopped in with the family. I personally had the Shaq Attack sandwich. Perfect spice to it with the slaw and chipotle bbq sauce. I would definitely pick that again. The tenders on their own were good too. Great breading with good flavoring. I believe we tried the majority of their sauces which still lead me back to the chipotle bbq. The location has a full bar which was unexpected from a counter service semi fast food spot. All of the staff seemed friendly. The overall clean restaurant was worth the spot with perfect hokie coloring. For most adults even the kids two tenders would be plenty of good. The Mac n cheese was the only thing I wasn't that fond of. It was mediocre.

#1 combo served piping hot and fresh. Side of buffalo sauce. I noticed they are open late too, which is a nice plus. Don't forget to download their app for rewards.

Had the Jerome's Nashville Got combo. Flavor is actually good but the chicken meat was horrible in texture. Felt like it was extremely chewy and weird texture. I could not eat much of it. Hope I don't get sick.

I observed this place and had to try it. The fast food restaurant is new, so the restaurant was immaculate. The service was so so. I order the Shaq Atrack and it came with no vegetables . The chicken was very tender but dry. The French fries were great. My opinion, if they could make the chicken moist it would be a hit. Some individuals may like it dry, I do not. The manager did ask us if our meals were fresh which they were. What was awesome was on the other side of the restaurant they have a full bar!

Uncle Jerome's Nashville hot chicken was delicious! Highly recommend. Happy hour is daily 4-7pm!

Plenty of parking. Clean and ready to serve. Large dining room. Shaded outside seating. Yummy Food!

Our first visit and the staff was very kind. No complaints about our food. I appreciate that the dressing was already mixed into my Cobb salad.

I had the BBQ chicken alert. Stupid name but great sandwich. I like the size of their sandwiches. Most of the chicken sandwich places think that bigger is better. They serve you this monstrous piece of fried chicken that's way too big for the bun. I've tried a lot of the chicken sandwich places around town, and this is the best one so far.

Service was great but food is missing it. We had the Nashville chicken sandwich, Shaq attack sandwich, and fries. The chicken patties are thin and all you're getting is batter. The batter isn't even good. Disappointing.

Is the big best fast food chicken restaurant in the world it's called shacks big chicken. The surface was good. The food was good and the ambience was great and great service. I recommend everybody to come here.

The Chicken fingers are real big and they are good and their fries are good also they also have salads.

The size of the chicken sandwich is "tiny"! The meat is flavorless. It was messy too. Unfortunately, I expected more from the photos. I will not be returning.

shaq's chicken spot is finally open! i got a sneak preview the other day and their chicken sandwiches are delicious the sauces are amazing as well so get them all

The chicken was tasty if you take it off the sandwich. The sauce tasted like liquid smoke and a bit sweet for my tastes. Overall I didn't care for the chicken sandwich. Not going in the rotation. SO got the grilled cheese and the bread was mushy and way too much cheese (I know, grilled cheese).

The chicken was okay not the best and not the worst but not near as good as Gus's World Famous Fried Chicken on Washington Avenue! The chicken is just a little on the dry side as opposed to Gus's which is just so moist and juicy it's addicting! I also tried mac and cheese because they hyped it up so much and said it has Cheez-its crumbled on top. Yes it has Cheez-Its maybe one crumbled on top but it was runny and tasted like they opened a can of cheap cheese and dumped in some elbow macaroni. Very Bland and again tasted like it came from a can. There are so many other places that have way better mac and cheese. So overall I'll continue to give my business to Gus's and probably won't go back to Shaq. Honestly I don't expect it to be around for more than 2 years!

My son and I have been to this restaurant twice already and both times the food was spectacular. I always ask and make sure that they don't put anything too spicy on my sandwiches because their heat levels can be a bit off the charts. Their french fries are nice and crispy not greasy and their chicken sandwiches are the best I've ever had. I highly recommend this place.

Food was ok when your local completion is Raising Canes, I'd go back to Canes before Big C. Service was curtious but items displayed on menu board aren't available to ring up like $2.99 for an additional Chicken Strip (per the manager the menu board is wrong) (I'm guessing this is a franchise location). Crinkle fries were cooked well and the sauces were tasty. I believe this would do better closer to a college campus with what they offer and a full bar. Great for that late night hungry college crowd. I can't see the demographic in this area supporting this much long. It probably took them longer to establish it then it will stay around. I will say if if does leave with the new layout inside from what it was as Corner Bakery, someone should swoop it up and put a cheek middle tier restaurant here.

Great staff, put me on the menu quick and easy since I was new, cool manager, good service

I visited Big Chicken last week and I was very impressed by the food quality and service. I ordered the Uncle Jerome sandwich with fries. The service was quick and the interior was very clean. I will definitely come back as the staff was welcoming and the taste was great.

Shaq just opened up the third location in Houston and so I went to check it out as it now closer to my home. Probably my favorite location, its in a nice area and the staff is great! Food came out fresh and fast, good service!
