★★☆☆☆ 2.0 Makaveli Valles · Mar 2026

The only thing that kinda helped was the food taste for us. The drinks came out of the dispenser hot, when I reach for the 6 ketchup packs they were left behind were sticky. I asked the worker for some more and he said there was some there. I told him I understand but they were sticky and there wasn’t enough. I did see him go and look and he did reach in to see how many there was and came back out with a sticky hand. His solution instead of removing them was to put more packets in there to push those back. In all my experience was lacking from my previous ones at the other location in corpus.

Every time I order chicken livers I write in comments, "Please don't over cook livers so they will stay tender." Every time I receive livers they are over cooked and hard!!! Why can't they cook them correctly???

Chicken express used to be my daughter's favorite but lately the portland location has been terrible. The food is not fresh, items missing, order not accurate, and the chicken is tiny. 2 legs used to fill her up but now the legs look like wing drumettes instead of actual legs. Thats a leg in my 9 year old's hand! A 2 piece meal with those 2 tiny legs was around $12. Ridiculous.

I ordered okra and regular tenders they gave me a bunch of tenders which is nice but they are spicy tenders and unfortunately spicy food gives me the runs 😭 it was pricey too so it would’ve been better to just get what I ordered

Lady at drive threw didn’t even greet nor say thank you handed me my food with box all torn apart remind you I have to drive 10 minutes to get to this place … she hands me my drink and change and I drive off I get home sit down fixing to enjoy my food lol nope open the box and all my food was old and dried up didn’t touch it was so mad drove another 10 minutes back to return my food when I got there. I forgot my drink at home. Told the lady if I could have a refund, she said in order to get a refund I needed my drink. Left the food there drove 10 minutes back home got the drink. Made sure to look for the straw. I didn’t want anything missing drove 10 minutes back handed her the drink and the straw and she gave me my refund really really bad. Poor service would expect for her to say I’ll ch
