Frenchy's Chicken traces back to 1969, when Percy "Frenchy" Creuzot Jr. and his wife Sallie opened a po-boy shop on Scott Street in Third Ward, bringing New Orleans-inspired Creole cooking to Houston. What started as a small sandwich shop grew around Creuzot's signature-seasoned fried chicken, which became the restaurant's calling card.
The menu leans into Southern Louisiana soul food, with the fried chicken as the centerpiece alongside sides like red beans and rice. The chicken comes fried crispy and well-seasoned, and the counter-service format keeps things quick and unfussy.
Decades on, Frenchy's has expanded across Houston into multiple locations, including this Museum District spot, while holding onto its reputation as a local institution with deep roots in the city's food history.
