What People Are Saying About Frenchy's Chicken

The Scene – Frenchy Creuzot's unassuming walk-up operation located a couple blocks away from the University of Houston's main campus has been a culinary institution since the late 1960s. UH students, neighborhood residents and devotees from 30 miles away wait patiently for their orders. There are a few picnic tables under the aluminum awning for those who wish to eat on the premises, but it's a pretty spartan arrangement. This has been a favorite hangout for Houston Rockets after practice. – – The Food – Cayenne-flecked, lick-your-fingers-good fried chicken anchors the…

It's Not What It Used To Be, Goodbye

by NMRhodes

I love tasty delicious fried chicken wings. I used to love going to Frenchy's to get my wings. Not anymore. It's true that their prices have increased so much that now I just pass the restaurant on the way to somewhere more reasonable. Whatever the reason for the price hike, I just don't care. Frenchy's is history. A faded memory of when the food was good and the prices were reasonable. I was about done when they charged extra when you didn't want ice in your drink. WTH? These restaurants are going crazy. But I won't be going there with them.

OMG...this price hike is unacceptable

by troylandry12

Look I know we are all facing challenging times but this is totally unacceptable. This price hike is rediculous. I urge the public and loyal customers of Frenchy's to boycott this chain. I personally love their chicken but I be darned if I'm going to pay 8.99 for a five piece wing dinner. I thought 6.99 was too much but oh well. Then today I in their story to see this sign posted annoucing their new price structure. Basically they have increased pricing by 2.00 per order. what the 0)*&)^&^(^%*. Customers let show our power by boycotting Frenchy's. At this rate they obviously feel they own us instead of the other way around. Boycot...boycot...boycot!

Frenchys if you wanna Choke!

by Sonya G

Went to the Frenchy's on Scott. There were lots of people around so I figured that the chicken would be hot and fresh....WRONG!!! I got the 5pc wing dinner and the chicken was so cold and dry if it had not been for the strawberry soda I would have CHOKED! I asked for extra seasoning for my fries and I got NO seasoning for my fries and to top it off the peppers they gave me were so small I could not even use the juice from the pepper to moisten the dry chicken!!! For more than 8$ they will not have to worry about me....I passed up Popeyes for this horrible mess!!!

Frenchy's at 8110 Kirby Drive

by NWAKL

I love Frenchy's Chicken and although the locations on Scott near TSU/UH and inside of HEB are better tasting than the Kirby location I have never been dissatisfied with the food at Frenchy's on Kirby until today. This evening I went to the drive thru and ordered a King Special. I only live about 10 minutes away so there was definitely not enough time for my fries and chicken to be cold. When I tasted the fries they were cold and greasy and appeared to be halfway cooked. The chicken was also cold and tasted like it had been sitting out all day. I was very disappointed and have to agree with the majority of the people who say the Kirby location is not as good as either location on Scott.
