    Chicken is great. Red beans and rice too. Easy walking distance from UH's main campus. I used to come here often during graduate school.

    GlennLock Foods operates seven Frenchy’s units in the Houston area. The Creuzot family, however, still owns the Frenchy’s on Scott Street and inside H-E-B grocery store.

    Offering a 3 piece "campus" (your choice of which piece of chicken you want) then saying its a $1.59 up charge for a breast is upsurd!
