In the heart of Texas, The Cookshack celebrates heat, a tradition Texans know all too well. We like things spicy, so we turned up the heat on some of the best damn fried chicken and ribs in the country. You choose one of our 5 heat levels, from Not Hot to AMF, and we’ll do the rest.
We also offer incredible sides to complement our hand-battered chicken tenders, our hot-chicken sandwich, and hand-smoked ribs, from traditional fries to our very own, house-made Mac n Cheese. Make sure you try one of our salads, as well. The Shack salad and the Kale Chicken salad are exceptional.
Based on 385 reviews, the restaurant has received a rating of 4.5 stars. Price $$

We had wanted to try this location for sometime now and finally we made it. The food, the atmosphere and the prices were perfect. I ordered the half ribs with the two tenders and fries. The meat fell right off the bones and the tenders were nice and flavorful. I spoke to the manager and he told me all about the preparation put into their ribs. It really showed cause you can tell it was all made with love. I can’t wait to take more of my family here. Kuddos to the awesome staff and cooks. They are doing all the right things here. ❤️

Went on a Sunday evening. It was moderately full and there was a group of young people that were very loud and that was bothersome for me but I’m mentioning it for those who are sensitive to loud environments. All the employees were pleasant and courteous. The family packages are a great value. We had the tenders & ribs with sweet potatoes fries and a waffle. Tenders were hot fresh & juicy. Ribs had good flavor but really a matter of taste. The sweet heat sauce was very good but the house sauce tasted like salad dressing. My waffle was fresh & fluffy and really hit the spot. Overall a solid place for good ribs, waffles & fries.

Nice chill spot. Good food! Good drinks! Great staff! Prices are good. We’ve been a few times, and each time, everything has been good. From management to the staff, everyone is friendly and is definitely going to make sure everything is good. We had Chicken and Waffles, Hog Heaven Loaded Fries, Chicken Tacos, and Ribs. All was fantastic! Drinks… The Boujee is best and then The Sangria Swirl, they will leave your spirit happy!

I got my food to go, and they gave me a complementary fountain drink while I waited! I ordered the chicken and waffles with the chicken medium spicy. It was so delicious the waffles had a delicious buttery flavor paired with the crispness of the chicken, and the cinnamon butter was so perfect.

Not only is this a fun atmosphere, the food is amazing and the staff is awesome! I brought my two oldest kids here for dinner just to try something new. We were not disappointed! The chicken was perfection! Moist and crunchy, and with the option to have a little spice! Then there was the waffles, dear lord, I had died and gone to heaven! With cinnamon butter?! PAHLEASE! I got the sweet potato fries, which rocked! And my kiddos had regular fries, also rocked! They have a range of sauces to dip that sweet sweet chicken in, but it really doesn’t need it, that stuff is delicious all on its own! We will be back, and we have already told all our friends about it. Keep up the good work guys!

Met with a friend for lunch here and was impressed with the food! I had fries topped with coleslaw and rib meat and the fries were seasoned and delicious, and the rib meat tender and flavorful.

The best baby back ribs we have ever eaten. Service from Jason was really great. It was our 1st time there & we arrived close to closing. Jason was so helpful: he explained the whole menu to us.
