In an exciting development for spicy food lovers, southern California’s renowned hot chicken chain, Angry Chickz, is set to make its Texas debut in the Houston area.
The first Texas location will open in Webster, near the Johnson Space Center, at 18207 Egret Bay Blvd. The official opening date remains undisclosed, but anticipation is already building among the locals.
Angry Chickz, famed for its Nashville-style hot chicken sandwiches, is bringing its fiery flavors to Texas. The chain is particularly known for its signature hot sauces, which vary in spiciness from the mild “Country” to the extreme “Angry” sauce.
The latter is so hot that it requires customers to sign a waiver before tasting it. This sauce is made from a potent mix of Carolina Reaper and ghost pepper, two of the spiciest peppers in the world, making it a true test for those who dare to try.
The restaurant also offers a range of fast food classics for those who prefer milder flavors. Customers can enjoy chicken tenders, mac and cheese, and other comfort foods, all available in less spicy variations. This ensures that there’s something for everyone, whether you’re a heat-seeker or prefer to keep things mild.
The expansion to Texas is spearheaded by Jim Wang, an experienced restaurateur and serial franchiser. Wang has previously introduced Houston to popular brands like Jinya Ramen and Paris Baguette, a Seoul-based French-inspired bakery.
After experiencing the original Angry Chickz in Aliso Viejo, California, Wang was inspired to bring the brand to Houston. “This brand has so much talent and the food is simply exceptional,” Wang said in a press release.
Following the Webster opening, Wang has plans to expand Angry Chickz further across Texas, with potential locations in San Antonio and other cities. This expansion aims to bring the unique flavors and culinary experience of Angry Chickz to a broader audience in the Lone Star State.
According to the source, Angry Chickz was founded by David Mkhitaryan in 2018, with its first location opening in East Hollywood, Los Angeles.
The chain quickly gained a following and now operates around 25 locations across the West Coast. Recognized for its rapid growth, Angry Chickz has been named one of the fastest-growing franchises in the US by QSR Magazine.
Houston’s food scene has long embraced the spicy, bold flavors of Nashville-style hot chicken. The arrival of Angry Chickz adds to the city’s diverse culinary landscape, offering a new destination for hot chicken enthusiasts.
With its unique approach and daring menu, Angry Chickz is poised to become a favorite among Houstonians.
For those eager to try the infamous “Angry” sauce, be prepared for an intense culinary adventure. The waiver-signing requirement adds a layer of excitement and challenge for spice lovers, making it a must-try for those who can handle the heat.
Meanwhile, the availability of milder options ensures that everyone can enjoy the delicious offerings of Angry Chickz, regardless of their spice tolerance.
As Angry Chickz prepares to open its doors in Webster, the Houston community eagerly awaits the arrival of this popular West Coast chain. With a strong reputation and a commitment to quality, Angry Chickz is set to make a significant impact on the Texas food scene.
Whether you’re a longtime fan of Nashville-style hot chicken or new to the experience, Angry Chickz promises a flavorful and memorable dining experience.
