While traveling in the area, we stopped by for a late lunch. The restaurant was clean and the service was fast, since we were the only ones there at the time. Food was hot. Right off Highway 75 and easy to get to and then to get back on the highway.

We have eaten at this location for years and really like the food, especially the concept of designing your own sandwich; but the new guacamole additive caught us by surprise. The wife loves guacamole and wanted it on the new turkey-bacon sub. The waitress told me it was spicy so I ordered 2 of them and told her to put the guacamole only on 1 of them....thank goodness! The wife would not eat it because it was spicy HOT. We have never been served guacamole even remotely like that and don't know where else it is served. I ate her sub because I often like spicy, but this took away any enjoyment of the sub by overwhelming the other flavors. The wife ate our favorite, the oven roasted chicken breast. Note: They are now open 24/7.

I thought all basic waffles were the same. But these are higher level. My favorite diner in county. Awesome staff knows their regulars. Just steer clear of limp french fries and some lunch choices that are frozen vs fresh. Breakfast is rarely short of perfect.

I am the Manager of the Hampton Inn and Suites around the corner from this Chicken Express. Chicken Express is a great business partner for us. It all started when they booked their corporate opening team with us. We order food for our clients and evening reception from them often with very little notice. They are always nice and professional and helpful even delivering our orders without an extra charge. I am a very demanding customer and I can tell you I have never had one single problem with the service of food from this location. Thank you to Brett, Christina and the rest of the staff for being amazing business partners and for excellent service and food.

Went here twice during my stay. The second time was the best. Had a rather boisterous crowd with me and I must say we probably gave our server some fits (in a good-natured way. Taylor was, to his credit, very solicitous and deserved every penny of the tip we left him.

The absolute worse service imaginable. After waitung over 30 minutes after ordering and still no food. Unless you count the cold inedible rolls. The appetizer of queso, never came. Apparently our order was never placed by the server. Realizing the problem, our order of a fish/shrimp combo was rushed our (following our 35 minute wait). The fish and shrimp were below average. The fries were cold. Mac and cheese was pretty good. The fried okra was mushy (probably frozen and thawed). Overall, just a terrible experience. Bad service. Bad food. Poorly managed restaurant. Thank you so much for your feedback. First, we are so sorry to hear about your negative experience. We can assure you that this is not up to our standards. We are lookin’ into why this occurred, and we will do our best to prevent this from happening again. We thank you for your honest feedback, as this helps us know where we can do better.

North Rig Grill

Reviewed By LibraLady09

We stopped in for a meal after work. We knew the food had to be good because Texas Highway Patrol troopers were eating there. Law enforcement always knows good places to eat!! I settled on the enchiladas and my daughter in law chose a turkey sandwich with sweet potato fries. There is a bar, so we were able to have an adult beverage each. The food arrived quite quickly - and my gosh, there was so much!!! The food was very well presented. The enchiladas tasted good, but were a little too salt for my taste. My DIL pronounced her meal excellent.Overall, the service was good and the food and drinks were very good and plentiful - the cost was surprisingly low. I would recommend this place to everyone wanting good american style food.

We truly enjoy breakfast out. We have passed Nick’s for years. We stopped on a whim and we are happy we did! The breakfast menu was large and reasonably priced. The decor is dated but, clean and roomy. Great service and ample servings. We will be back. The food was very good.

If you’re going to be in the Denison area, you’ve got to make a stop at Huck’s! They have the best, cleanest, white and tender, perfectly battered and cooked fried catfish. Their tartar sauce is also delicious and goes perfectly with the fish—ask for extra! We love their baked potatoes and potato and ham potato salad, as well as their hush puppies and they’ve got some great veggie options. They also have the option of gluten free fried catfish with a cornmeal batter. And of course they’ve got other entree options and a full kid’s menu, but in our family the fish is the favorite! You’ll leave this place full and happy!
