The Crack Shack opened its doors Feb. 10 at 23501 Cinco Ranch Blvd., R140, Katy.

The Southern California-based fast-casual chicken concept chose La Centerra at Cinco Ranch as its first Texas location. The eatery features outdoor dining and a full bar, while being pet friendly and offering takeout to customers.

The Crack Shack sells sandwiches, fried chicken and shakes. The restaurant prides itself on premium ingredients—such as produce sourced from local boutique farms, poultry fed an all-natural vegetarian diet, and bread and biscuits handmade daily from micro-artisan bakeries local to the Katy location. 281-394-3456. www.crackshack.com
