Everything it’s great the only thing I would wish they had would be a kids meal on the menu and high chairs.

This couldn’t possibly be the same owners as the old location. The food quality has plummeted. If moving to a new location meant they had to cut back in another areas. They should never have done it.

We have placed large orders here a few times and everytime they never had the order ready. Today I waited almost 40 minutes for the order. They did not give me the 6 oz sauce containers they ended up giving me tiny cups. Then they only had small paper bags, and they loaded them so they started tearing when I was trying to carry them to the car. When they were at the other location the employees were quick and on top of things. The people they have now don't care. The place wasn't that clean and this isn't the 1st or 2nd time.

Staff is really slow and served cold food! The food quality and taste is not the same anymore.
The staff just sloth slow, food was cold. I order 6 items, that received in decades and so cold , I think they trying to ruin the image of old mico chicken. :3
As someone that loved Mico’s and has eaten here for years when in Houston this is a hard review to write. I was extremely disappointed to learn the buffalo tender salad was no longer available (og Mico’s fans know it). Took nearly 45 mins to get our 2 pc tender meal with only two other people waiting and the staff here just watched us from the kitchen while waiting for about 5 mins to place our order. Miss the old location since the place just isn’t the same, will have to find a new place to eat in Houston… posting an edit because while waiting the staff was saying they don’t understand why everyone is agreeing to wait 30 to 40 minutes because the food over here isn’t even that good and they were right we didn’t even finish it and went order from somewhere else… I guess when the staff agrees it’s really fallen off the wagon what a shame

Despite the recent bad reviews. I went there because it’s down the street from me. First time visitor. I ordered the hot chicken sandwich with the waffle fries and hot ketchup. The chicken was very tender and had a good “hot” flavor. The waffle fries were perfectly crispy. I gave it a chance after passing it many times. Glad I did.

It's okay for fast food. We called an asked if there was sugar in the spice rub, they said no. There's definitely brown sugar in the Hot & it is not hot at all, just sweet. The oil they fry in is also tastes weird. The salad was pretty good. The chicken was meh.

When I worked down the street from the old location, on Saturdays my wife would stop there and grab me lunch and it was always on point. Including their hottest level.
I didn't know they had moved to across from H-E-B until last week. Sadly they seem to have left all the good behind. Staff was extremely rude, they now only have three levels of heat, and they lost the hottest level.
Food was cold and greasy and their hottest level tastes like Frank's Hot Sauce. Now I know heat since I make hot sauce with fresh grown Carolina Reapers and Ghost Peppers grown right here in Houston.
This was not only a waste of time but also money. I managed to choke it all down but I won't be doing it again. I don't know why they moved, but if they don't step their game back up, they won't be too long in the new location either.
Save your time and money and look elsewhere for your hot chicken fix.

I used to love the food here, fried pickles were the best I ever had. The prices have grown ridiculously high. $16 for a chicken sandwich is insane.

Got some loaded fries from here and I always get this but today immediately after eating I began throwing up and believe I got a food poisoning.
I went in around 7:30. My meal cost $25 and it was not worth it at all. I got a tenders basket with extra tender and a side salad. The salad came in a fruit cup sized Togo container. The fries tasted like they were in grease that sat there the whole day so did the tenders. Honestly hopdoddu has way better tenders. I used to love this place but it’s gone down since they’ve changed locations.

I’ve been coming to Mico’s Hot Chicken since you first opened, but recently the food has been tasting inconsistent. Some days it’s good, but other times it tastes different or a bit off, and it ends up feeling like a waste of money. Whenever friends or family visit Houston, Mico’s has always been one of the places I take them, so I just wanted to share this feedback. Hopefully the quality can be improved.

Honestly every time I try to eat here I regret it and can’t even finish half of it. Trash everywhere too. Not edible.
