I ordered THC from Uber Eats for dinner tonight and it was excellent. The bowl was BIG and made with fresh ingredient; I particularly loved the flavor of the chicken. Definitely recommend the queso and guac too! Like the other reviews say, skip Chipotle and order from The Hungry Cowgirl!

This has become my favorite place to order from. I haven’t had the chance to go in-store to eat yet, but I’m hoping to soon.I describe The Hungry Cowgirl to my friends as a “better version of Roots Natural Kitchen”. I love the long grain rice that they use, and everything is fresh-tasting.The biggest plus for me is the servings are big enough to last me for lunch and dinner. I get double chicken, so it’s around $15, but I’m so full halfway through, it’s more like I’m paying $7.50 for two meals.If you haven’t been here, I couldn’t recommend it enough!

Was curious about THC and finally tried it.Overall the food was good. Ordered one of their bowls. The bowl seemed fresh and flavorful. Some people mentioned the portion sizes were off. Felt that the bowl was more than generous. They did go heavy on beans and less on the meat but that is to be expected. The rice was different than many Tex-Mex or Mexican restaurants around here, but it is a positive difference. We tried both the citrus vinaigrette and the pepper crema. Both were really good. The vinaigrette was probably better suited for the bowl.The tortilla chips seems to be house made and were good. Some had decent levels of salt but overall it wasn’t too salty - which in my opinion is a good thing.Things were a bit off with the salsa and queso. Tried the verde bc of reviews —- it tasted off, one of the ingredients didn’t seem to be good it seems like if it was fresh it would have been. The container was barely filled less than halfway which at 2 oz for $1.25 that seemed steep. The roja salsa was good but the container was either not closed properly or was placed poorly as most of it spilled out. The salsas ended up not being worth it. The queso was also not great. It was so congealed when it arrived that the lid had an indentation on it. The texture seemed off even after reheating it. It also just tasted like white American cheese or something similar, no flavor or spice. Queso is the one thing you want a place like this to get right. Overall feel the salsa and queso here aren’t made for delivery which is weird for a place that is delivery/takeout only.Overall I’d still give them another chance and curious to try some of the other things on their menu.

Hungry CowGirl never disappoints! We have ordered delivery from Hungry many times since it's opened and are always impressed. Meals are a good size, flavorful, and consistent.One thing they do well is keeping their food light but also filling - which some other Tex-Mex brands struggle to do. Prices are also very competitive. Great for lunch or dinner!

This food never fails! Thanks for this! It’s like a better more authentic, fresher and tastier version of chipotle. Better seasoning and flavoring and you get done feeling like you just nurtured yourself vs feeding a hunger w processed food. Please support this business over moes and chipotle those places are processed and has nothing on this place

Nice small menu of southwestern influenced bowls and cantina type fair with a few original takes on American classics. Simple recipes very well prepared with nourishing ingredients at very affordable prices for the satisfyingly generous portions.It is pickup or delivery only but they have both an easy to use online order website and delivery via all the usual services. I can see the pickup location being confusing to some, so be aware that it is run out of a commercial kitchen and pickup is only accessed from the alleyway door. Nonetheless, ordering and pickup is seamless, straightforward, and very fast.Favorites:- Slow Roasted Chicken Bowl- Baked potato- Chips and queso- Tres Leches- Hibiscus Iced TeaPass:- Cornbread (more bread than cake. That's a no for this southern boy)Vegetarian options: Vegetarian bowl. Baked potato. Chips and queso. Elote. Desserts.
