Been coming here for 5 years, since I was in college. As someone who loves spicy food, my first time here I fell in love. I loved the spicy, mouth watering, nose running chicken. They used to have xtra hot and I used to get it and be satisfied everytime with the spice. they have since gotten rid of it and honestly even getting the hot spice level isn’t hot anymore. the chicken is decent but the spice isn’t that same. it just taste like fried chicken with seasoning to me and the fries sometimes are okay but not crispy like it used to be. I only come back occasionally just to see if it’s just the way it was cooked that day or what not but it seems like something has changed and it is not as good as it used to be, even a couple years ago. The owners are great and i’ve always appreciated their service but the food just doesn’t hit the same and i’m sad that this place isn’t go to spot for food anymore.

I am editing my review as they’re now brick and mortar - expect to find a restaurant that wasn’t ready to open. It’s dirty everywhere, there’s no trash can for people to throw their trash away, and there is trash and dirty dishes just sitting on the bar. Not to mention - they’re SLOW. It took over 30 mins to get 2 orders - just two chicken tenders and one chicken sandwich. What a shame - they used to be so good!
Very delicious and moist hot chicken! Typically don’t like the dryness associated with hot chicken but Mico’s does a good job of packing flavor without drying the chicken. Recommend Medium for a nice kick without dying. Loaded fries were amazing. Great outdoor patio too, don’t forget Mico’s sauce!

I’m a Houston native and this is the best tasting hot chicken in the city. Honest and humble business that provides impressive food!

The chicken tenders were awesome and large portions. Had a caesar salad as a side, pretty good actually. And they still use real plates and glasses!!

Such an amazing hot chicken sandwich! Perfectly spicy and sweet. Great batter to chicken ratio that allows all the flavors to shine through. I wish they had draft beer selection with more tvs to watch a game. But overall great experience and would highly recommend.

Greasy and unseasoned. Food was extremely mid and overpriced. Would not come again. Place was empty as well. Would not recommend.

I don’t know what happened since they moved. But last two times I have ordered my food takes 40 minutes. My food is always different tasting and now im forced to pay $18 for a chicken sandwich. Not everyone wants a meal. They use to sell just the sandwich. But all this said I hope it’s just things they are working out.
Ordered thru Uber eats. They forgot my 2 lemonades, mind you I only ordered two Chicken Sandwich combos. Bag of fries is TINY, Cold, and soggy. Sandwich had poor presentation. Would not recommend. Not worth the 45 dollars

The quality of food has gone down sooo much with the opening of this location! I waited at least 5+ minutes before I was even acknowledged from an employee that walked out from the back. My food actually took 32 minutes from the time I ordered until it was ready. I absolutely loved the chicken at the old location, but my tenders this time were super chewy. The food is way too expensive for this type of service and food quality! Unfortunately Mico’s lost a loyal customer!
Bring back the old Mico’s!!!

I hope the owners read the reviews since they worked so hard in developing their business. Food was much better at old location. Lettuce in Caesar salad was so brown and no dressing, had to trash it. Chicken tenders were just ok but they forgot the dipping sauce. Used sandwich mustard that I had at the office.
