The BEST Chicken Fried Steak. Lunch on 6/2/22. Arrived at 11:45 and the place was already packed. Counter service. Order and pay at the counter. Get your drink glass and buzzer from cashier after payment. Fill your glass at the drink station and go look for a place to sit. I had the "medium" size chicken fried steak, green beans and onion rings. Onion rings are not a "regular" side and cost $2.99 extra.

Worth it. SEE PHOTO As soon as I received my pizza pan covered in food, I asked for a to go container. Immediately cut the CFS in half and placed it in the to go container. Only half of the "medium" CFS was plenty. Green beans were seasoned nicely. They appear to be typical from a can but you can taste the bacon and other seasonings they use in the beans.

The onion rings were flaky, crispy and hot out of the fryer. I like ketchup with my onion rings. The CFS was covered in cream gravy. The meal was a great value for the price. I sat near the serving window where you pick up your order. More than half of the plates coming out of the window today were CFS. Quite a few with BBQ and even a few with delicious looking chicken tenders.

Maybe I'll try the tenders next time. When I left at 12:30 PM, the lunch crowd was gone. The crowd was mostly local business folks on a quick lunch break. I look forward to my next visit.

I love to eat here. I hav been going to HH for over 15 yrs now. We were close by taking pics for my son on IG, follow @monsterjam_junior for some great pics. I don't live close so when I do get a chance to go I always eat the chicken fried steak. Their CFS is the biggest you will find in Houston maybe even Texas. Their mashed potatoes and homemade gravy are the best.

I also love their French fries. I had the Large portion and my wife had the medium. We both could not finish our meals. I hear the BBQ is good but I have never had it. However, if you order the 3 meat BBQ plate CFS can be 1 of your Meats. Where else can you get that? Prices are very reasonable. UPDATE: I finally tried the BBQ, I do have 1 thing bad to add, i did not like the brisket nor did my wife.

I had been told the brisket was not very good so I had to try it, not impressed at all. The BBQ sauce is the worst too. I have been told the pork ribs are the best though. Still, Go hungry it's worth the trip

We haven't been here in years. Nothing has changed. Great food and great service. Staff is friendly and food was awesome. My wife had a baked potato with brisket and I had the "medium" size chicken fried steak with mashed potatoes and fried okra. We shared a side of onion rings, which were huge. Overall a great experience and reasonably priced.

My husband wanted a chicken fried steak so we decided to try Hickory Hollow based on previous reviews---we weren't disappointed. The staff were friendly and the food was delicious. The large chicken fried steak can feed 2 people. You need to try it.

I have had chicken fried steaks from many different places. None of them hold a candle to Hickory Hollow's! It's huge, full of flavor and very tender. This place is as Texan as it gets! Be ready to get full and your tastebuds jumping for joy. The best chicken fried steak on the planet!

In my opinion the barbecue's got to be really special in Texas to get more than three stars, if it's awful you can get less than three stars. I think their barbecue is pretty on point. The barbecue sauce tasted good, and the green beans were good as well. I'll probably be back to try some more of their food.

Good service and decent bbq at this old school spot, my family really likes it. A bit light on the sides though except the onion rings and they are really good. We had brisket chicken ribs and sausage, all are pretty good with some sauce on them, a bit dry for my taste without it. Green beans are a bit bland, fried okra is good. Overall not bad for the money.

I've been coming to Hickory Hollow for years! Great lunch spot, but one of my favorite things to do is also take out. I get their loaded baked potatoes to go, and they're still nice and hot by the time I get home. I sometimes get their amazing country fried steak to go, and somehow it's still crunchy and hot after a 20 minute drive home. Also don't sleep on their Hot Tots!

They're incredibly addicting, they have a nice kick to them and they serve it with the same awesome gravy that accompanies their country fried steak. They're super friendly and the service is crazy fast! 10/10

It's wonderful when you can roll back time in Texas a few decades to when everybody was polite and the food at a Roadhouse was always sublimely delicious. Hickory Hollow is one of my favorite Texas memories, great food and a wonderful atmosphere that just screams the Texas of my youth. Had a chicken fried steak it was huge and magically delicious.

But what was most memorable about this particular visit was just how nice kind and polite everyone was and sometimes in a big city like Houston that gets lost. So come to Hickory Hollow for the food and enjoy the delightful people customers and staff alike for dessert.

First time here. I found it through Google and the Food network both which ranked it high. I ordered their medium chicken fried steak which was huge, I took half with me. I also got coleslaw, fried okra and a sweet tea. I also ordered some hot tots to go as I heard they were also good. The chicken fried steak was very good, crispy not greasy with a light brown country pepper gravy, also very good.

The okra was crisp and well cooked not greasy and good flavor. The hot tots were also very good and the tea was fresh. The place was clean and the staff was very friendly. I will be back.
