This is my local location. I've never dined in because the corner where they're at is ridiculous traffic wise, both car and people. I always opt for a 2 people meal. Everything is always still perfectly hot temp wise by the time it gets to my place. Speaking of hot, their spice level is it. You can't go wrong. They stay consistent. I've yet to be disappointed with any item I've tried. Thanks for always being the perfect solution to my munchies attacks

Looks DELICIOUS!!! So much food! YUM!!! Thanks so much for the kind words Julie! You rock!

I can finally check this place off my list! I'm only subtracting one star because I ordered cheese fries and they gave me regular fries :( But besides that this place really exceeded my expectations. The food was GREAT and I will definitely be coming back. I opted for mild and it wasn't hot at all. Their "Dave's sauce" is basically thousand island sauce (or so I'm told) and it really compliments their food. I had the tenders (pictured below) and my boyfriend has the sliders. We were both happy campers. Check it out!

I wish I could give this place 3.5 stars but I am feeling generous today so I gave them the 4 instead of 3. Food was good. Where they lost points was how long it took and the parking situation. We went there after 7pm (7:11 to be exact) I know this because they only allow you to park in the lot for 45 minutes or they charge you. I get it. They don't want people hanging there all night... it's a small joint. So, we headed inside to order our food thinking we had ample time (we're both fast eaters). We were wrong! It took us ... read more

I have had Dave's Hot Chicken a few times and they have stayed consistently good. There are different levels of heat to choose from. I tend to order medium and hot and the heat is pretty tolerable. I add the special sauce and hot honey to balance out the spices. (Interesting to note that if you order the Reaper on their website, you would have to sign a disclaimer. My coworker who is NEVER phased by spicy food said it has a nice kick to it. That is a compliment! She never finds anything spicy enough. The slider and chicken ... read more

I really love this place. I think they have the best chicken tenders outside howlin rays and I really love their Dave's sauce. It's a little pricey though.

Man the hype is real me and my girlfriend were in LA this past weekend for my birthday and Dave's Hot Chicken doesn't disappoint. We did the lite mild which is no spicy but thang still spicy a little not too hot though. I can see why Drake Co-Owns it the platter also comes with curly fries which is super fire. We put the honey and Dave special sauce on the chicken sandwich so good 10/10 

Business response:

Started from the bottom now we're here! Thank you for stopping by and showing some love!

I really like Daves because of how juicy the chicken is but i chose the slider this time and I was kinda taken back on how raw the whole bread feels. It could be more toasted or toasted to order because otherwise it just kills the whole flavor of chicken. Great service and patio seating with a chill ambiance . 

Business response:

Thanks for showing some love! If you can connect with us at https://tellusdirect.com/dhc we would love a chance to impress you even more and earn that fifth star.

HOT CHICKEN HAVEN I try to avoid fast food, but Dave's Hot Chicken was offering a free chicken slider if you downloaded their app. Since I had heard a lot about this place, I was curious to try it. The Fairfax location was hopping when I arrived. As I was ordering at their counter, I noticed that they also offered a free milkshake if you checked in on Yelp. Being a YEE, you know I couldn't resist. You can choose your spice level, so I went with "hot." While I was waiting for them to freshly cook my slider, I read the encour... read more
