Ordered the hottest chicken - thought I was gonna die - hard to taste hahaha made to order hot and fresh can't complain - order came out when stared - place was a little dirty - tables uncleaned trash full no one in the restaurant it was 2:30pm so no excuse - definitely get what you expect here lol

The chicken slider here is great but the ambience of this small shop is abysmal. The world's worst low fidelity speaker blasts music inside and outside the shop. Also the wait for one's order is way longer than one would expect. It would have been nice if the cashier provided some idea of how long the wait would be for the food. 

Business response:

Appreciate the feedback, Art. Glad you enjoyed the slider, but sorry the vibe wasn’t what you were hoping for. We hear you on the wait time and communication—definitely something we can work on. If you’d like to share more, feel free to reach out at dhcfeedback.com.

This was my first time trying Dave's Hot Chicken and the food was pretty good. We placed an order for pickup and everything was hot and ready when we picked up our order. The service was good and I would recommend if you're in the area. 

Business response:

Thanks for giving us a try, Maya! Happy to hear your order was fresh and ready to go. Appreciate the recommendation, and hope to see you again soon!
