Houston just got a serious upgrade in the hot chicken game—The Red Chickz has officially landed in Cypress, and we finally got to see what all the hype is about. After watching video after video of their insanely crispy chicken, we had to try it for ourselves, and let’s just say, the crunch did not disappoint. Every bite was packed with flavor, texture, and just the right amount of heat. We can only hope they open more locations across the city because this is the kind of chicken we need on a regular basis.
What makes The Red Chickz stand out is their commitment to flavor. Their halal chicken is hand-battered and marinated for 48 hours, ensuring maximum crunch and tenderness. The 7 spice levels range from mild to extreme, but for us, the "Spark" level (4 of 7) was the perfect balance of heat and flavor. If you’re in the mood for tenders, a sandwich, tacos, or a loaded bowl, there’s no wrong way to enjoy their signature hot chicken. And let’s not forget about the sides—creamy mac and cheese, perfectly seasoned potato wedges, and cheese curds with an incredible cheese pull. Everything we tried was just as indulgent and satisfying as the main event!
On top of the incredible food, The Red Chickz also has some seriously good deals. Every Thursday, you can grab their famous chicken tenders for just $2 each, which is a steal considering the quality. If you're stopping by for lunch on a weekday, they offer a sandwich and a side for only $9.99 from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m.
The Red Chickz has officially made its mark on Houston, and we’re already thinking about our next visit! If you haven’t been yet, now’s the time—just be prepared to crave that crunch long after you leave.
