“I heard so many things about Jollibee and after seeing it close to my house i had to go by and try it out.. LET ME TELL YOU... I had never been at a lost for words chicken in this area in a long time, but let me start out with the service. I not sure where they got the scriot for customers at Jollibee, but it made me feel right at home. The greeting was, how they say, a jolly one each time I have visited. The presentation of the fried chicken is breath taking with a golden brown crust thats crispy and thesize of the chicken. Thank you Jollibee, because size do matter when your paying for a meal. I have always done the drive through but on my last visit i decided to take my family in and goodness gracious. Clean and busy just like the drive thru. I tried the burger and was so satisfied with the taste, that after the first bite and chew i hit the umm huh and put it down for asecond to analyze it. To sum it up this is a great restaurant with really good food and if you haven't tried it out yet, you really should. I will say this, it has a price tag on it, but WORTH EVERY PENNY.“

“So, it was a cheat day. Mr C's Fried Chicken & Waffles was singing the Sirens song in my ear. Ive never been let down here before. That cornbread is amazing!!! (4 pieces) . Fried chicken skins - this the only place Ive seen them and you meant to tell me I get a plateful of my favorite part of the chicken??!! It was on point 9/10. Fried catfish, amazingly done. A voice inside said "oh they have red velvet cake, you should try that". I asked the waitress, on a 10 scale, she says 9. I take a slice home. Oh lawd. Ive always taken up for Red Velvet cake when the haters call it bs and made up chocolate, but it didnt have any love for me. Im a fat man, I will eat anything, even bad cake - but...I couldnt eat this. It was drier than the Sahara. I left it on the counter, and saw a trail of ants later."Hmm, maybe at least theyll eat it". Upon closer inspection, they were carrying ant water-pails to it to try to moisturize it. I threw it in my disposal and my disposal filed an OSHA violation against me. Would I recommend Mr Cs Fried Chicken & Waffles? ONly on days that end in -y. Would I recommend the red velvet cake? Im going to need a few therapy sessions first. 😃Please bring back the buttermilk pie.“

“Good Customer Service, always with a 😃, very friendly,“

“Tried this place out today. The food (whole chicken) was grilled perfectly. It was very delicious. However there were roaches in the dining area. There were also random people , not customers coming in and out of the dining area. I would recommend getting your food to go.“

“Busy place! The floor wasn't clean probably from a fresh soda spill so the atmosphere points go down for that. The food was excellent and it came out fast and the canes sauce was delicious as always. Service was nice but not fake nice which I always appreciate. Overall good vibes this one is approved by me for sure.“

“Friendly quick service...delicious food!!!“

“Great flavor! My mom brought it home, and I went the next day to get some more, and then another time so my husband can try it. We all love it“

“Love y’all but for the love of all things holy; either keep the outside lane for passing or for customers waiting for their food. ❤️“

“Riquísimo el café! Recién hecho!“

“Went through the drive through and got the kids chicken fingers for the grandkids. This chicken is delicious, crunchiness on the outside and juicy on the inside. Real meat, not glued together meat. The canes sauce, I really liked it. Kind of a twist on ketchup and mayo, with a little BBQ sauce flavor mixed in. The kids ate it up. It was priced well, with a small drink and fries. The woman who took my order in person at the drive through was super sweet and personable.“

“Awesome tenders and fries🤩“

“The chicken was well cooked & seasoned. The potatos were tender & also well seasoned. The tortillas were nice & warm & that was even after a 30 minute delivery time from Uber Eats. The taquitos were crispy. If you are hungry for Mexican style chicken, you should give El Pechugon a try.“

“Great service and great food“

“Outstanding comfort meal experience! Exterior attendants took order promptly and accurately despite being inundated with cars. Provided us three (3) fresh hot nicely wrapped meals. Abundant sauces were provided. Plenty of napkins. Straws were included. Drinks were accurate. We will return for another Chic-fil-A experience. TY.“

“Well, my first time visiting this place came from Tennessee and decided to stop by and get some lunch..hey guess what😉...I love what I got and I appreciate the great fast service...thanks guys hope stop by again when visit San Antonio again..chaaawwww😉“

“very good chicken and bread the best i enjoyed it“

“This place seriously did not miss. The chicken was crispy on the outside but still super juicy inside, like actually cooked perfectly. The fries were fresh and had that good seasoning, not bland at all. And the toast was buttery and soft, which lowkey made the whole plate even better.“

“Great service ! Food was hot and delicious.“

“Bush’s Chicken In San Antonio Texas.❤️💯“

“The Staff Is Friendly And Respectfull. The Food Is Very Tasty. The Place Is Clean And Tidy. The Games Área Is Amazing.“

“I ordered a Medium Platter of chicken nuggets. They did a great job. It was nice and hot when I picked it up. The manager greeted me when I walked in. He got my order and made sure I had everything I needed. They guy that made my Platter came out to give me my order himself. There was another manager sitting at the table on her break, she even got up to help with my order. Great customer service! 👏 Thank you all so much for making it a great experience. I'll be back again for sure. 😁“

“Excellent chicken meals..not one bit greasy ,tasty & enjoyable 😉... girls working there always have a great welcoming smile 😃...reasonable prices, especially for students that attend Harlan HS it's very convenient & close to the school 🏫 . My question and/or suggesting if Gift Cards are available for customers to purchase? Very friendly and relaxing atmosphere..outside and inside the cleanliness of it is outstanding 👌 💯 ➕️.“

“Went through the drive through and was pleasantly greeted by Alex. He didn’t rush me, he wasn’t rude, instead he was very welcoming and helpful when it came down to ordering my food. They were out of lemonade but suggested the half gallon of sweet tea, which I enjoyed very much. It’s great to go places and have a wonderful, fulfilling experience and Alex made sure it was great. I’ll def go back and order more chicken here!“

“So amazing will definitely return“

“If you’re looking for incredible food and outstanding service, the Flaming Bird at H‑E‑B is the place to be! From the moment I walked up, Kaylee and TJ made the experience unforgettable.
Kaylee greeted me with a warm smile and went above and beyond to make sure my order was perfect. Her attention to detail and friendly attitude made me feel like a valued guest.
TJ worked with speed and precision, making sure everything came out fresh, hot, and delicious. His professionalism and positive energy added so much to the visit.
The food itself was phenomenal—juicy, flavorful chicken with sides that hit the spot—but what truly sets this location apart is the team. Kaylee and TJ turned a quick meal into a five-star experience.
👏 Big shoutout to them both for raising the bar and showing what customer service should look like. Flaming Bird at H‑E‑B is lucky to have them, and I’ll definitely be coming back thanks to their stellar service!“

“I recommend this location due to the fact that the people that work there are always so nice going to our table asking if we need any refills, or anything else, they make us feel welcomed and i really appreciated that, so friendly and respectful. The food is awesome and freshly made on spot! Thank you so much! I live by Alamo Ranch and I prefer the Ingram.“

“I was given the wrong order through the drive-thru and then when I got home I called the location and they had me come back swap the food, give me the right order. Also gave me an extra cookie. The management was super professional the staff was awesome as well. For mistake like that they handled it perfectly.“

“The manager Jeff greeted us upon arrival and was on top of his staff to ensure everything was running smoothly being that we went at very busy time of the day. This location is always spotless, i feel safe letting my daughter play, and i can sit and relax on my phone while listening to the music they play. Thank you!“

“Went to South Flo order a pizza. My favorite employee was working freeman great job as always. He was also dealing with a very rude lady that couldn’t wait few minutes for a beer. I also went and got my self some chicken for family dinner never had it before it was so good and Matt who helped me was top notch very kind and helpful just like freema I will be definitely going back for a chicken fajita bowl thank you Matt and freeman made my family dinner and my night very good“

“come check out new location.. ready for new customer on Tuesday hopefully“

“UPDATE: finally was able to find time to come back to this spot, food was quick and decent, nothing flashy, but great for the price.

I've tried to come to this place about 5 times during their normal business hours in the last 2 months, every single time I show up during random times of the day, they just happened to have a sign posted up saying they are sorry but they have to close down for that day, what's the point of having your business hours posted if it's never followed?

I'll maybe change this review when one day the stars align and I'll actually get to see them open and try some of the food“

“i always love coming to this location friendly fast kind crew“

“As the last CFA before heading south toward Laredo, we've tried to hit this spot right at open a few times. Not open on time once, then order messed up the next time we visited. Third time worked out - maybe just getting warmed up at a newer spot. Friendly as usual.“

“Would have taken a picture but I ate it all too fast. I am so glad they added a flaming bird here at the Bandera and 410 HEB! I used to have to go to the southside for one, now it’s down the street. Food is amazing as always, and shout out to Dida for being so sweet and charming, meticulous & loving. ❤️“

“I personally felt it extremely important to give this location and it's employees the highest of praise possible as they ALWAYS exceed in customer service !! They are always welcoming their customers with a smile as well as making sure that their customers leave with one also ! I have NEVER had a single bad experience at this location what so ever !! As I sat enjoying my lunch today I was pleased to witness an employee go out of her way to help an elder with understanding the ON LINE ordering process for future orders. Not many people nowadays would be that considerate ! I will definitely be returning here more often !
To all those reading this review...PLEASE GIVE THIS LOCATION YOUR BUSINESS...You won't be disappointed I assure you !!“

“I had an excellent experience with H‑E‑B Flaming Bird! Matt, the manager, went above and beyond… incredibly accommodating and service‑oriented. He made my catering experience completely flawless from start to finish. Everything was delicious and perfectly organized. I’ll definitely be coming back again for future events!“
