What to Eat at Texas Chicken - Burjuman Mall How we choose these items We use AI to find praise and criticism of specific foods and drinks in a selection of Google reviews. For Texas Chicken - Burjuman Mall, this list is based on 50 reviews, not every review of the restaurant. The score is positive reviews minus negative reviews. For example, two positive reviews and one negative review give +1. Each review counts once per item; neutral comments do not change the score. A zero score is not a positive recommendation. “Only neutral feedback” means there are no positive or negative votes. “Mixed feedback” means equal numbers of positive and negative votes. The quotes are examples of what people said, not every comment we counted. We use different reviews where we can. We normally show up to 10 foods and 5 drinks with non-negative scores. Items with the same score stay together. If a tied group would go past the limit, that group and the lower non-negative scores go into Honorable mentions. If an overflowing positive top tie would leave the list empty, we show up to 10 items from that tie and keep the rest in Honorable mentions. Foods and drinks with a negative score are under What to Avoid. Use this as a guide to what reviewers liked, not a guarantee that you will like it too.

“I didn't like it a lot. I ordered the three sticks with rice and tomato sauce. The portion is extremely small compared with the price. It's really cheap to insert the sticks inside the rice bowl although the photo on the menu doesn't appear like that. Overall, not a good experience.”

Tips for a Better Visit
Check Orders. Before leaving the counter, check the contents: one customer received food different from what was ordered.
Verify Prices. If ordering through the UAE app, compare the displayed total with the collection charge before paying again.
Allow Time. Build in extra time for pickup; a seven-minute estimate became another seven minutes after the first wait.
Check Heat. Check that chicken is hot through the centre before settling in, as one rice-meal review found it cold inside.
Use Parking. If you are driving, the mall has parking inside, and the food court has plenty of seating once you arrive.

The Bottom Line
Texas Chicken BurJuman is a food-court stop for fried chicken, burgers and filling combo meals. The clearest crowd-pleasers are the crunchy fried chicken, crispy burger and Kabayan meal. The Kabayan comes with regular or spicy chicken, gravy and a generous serving of steamed long-grain rice, making it one of the more substantial choices mentioned in the reviews.
There is useful mall convenience here: reviewers mention lots of seating, free Wi-Fi, clean tables and parking inside BurJuman Mall. Families have also said their children enjoyed the food. Promotions can improve the value, with customers mentioning app vouchers, Carrefour receipt coupons and other discounts, though prices deserve a quick check at pickup.
Quality and service are not entirely consistent. Some visits brought friendly, helpful service and fresh, crispy chicken; others involved unwelcoming staff, wrong items, bland fries, cold food or waits longer than the estimate. One particularly serious review reported undercooked chicken, so check that your order is correct and properly hot before leaving.
If you are collecting an app order, keep the payment confirmation handy and allow extra time during a busy visit.
