A popular Nashville Hot Chicken chain from California is making its way into Texas, including locations in DFW and Austin.

Angry Chickz will open 25 new locations over the next five years, with the first restaurant expected to open in 2026.

Mike LaRue, vice president of franchise development for Angry Chickz, told CW33, “This is a major step for us for Angry Chickz.  We’ve been hearing from fans in Texas and New Mexico for years asking us to come to their community, and now we’ve found the right partners to make it happen.”

Angry Chickz currently operates 33 restaurants across California, Nevada, and Arizona.
