Ordered to go and it was a little busy but got my food in a decent time. I ordered the 1 slider meal with fries. I got the medium spice and it was a good amount of spice but not spicy at all. Bathrooms were clean and service was great. I've been here multiple times and will come back again soon! 

Business response:

Appreciate you coming back again and again! Medium spice is a solid choice, and glad to hear the service and cleanliness are always on point. Looking forward to your next visit!

I thought it was super yummy and the customer service was friendly and helpful! They do have tables inside and out if you want to eat onsite. Good flavor, tried the chicken with sides of macaroni, coleslaw and fries. 

Business response:

Love hearing that you enjoyed both the food and the service! Solid side choices, too—mac, coleslaw, and fries make a great combo. Hope to see you again soon!

I love Dave's hot chicken, I've been a fan for a while now. I really dislike that they changed the reaper recipe though, that was my go-to, but now they made it way too spicy.. it h physically hurts to eat it. Nat is super friendly and she recommends mixing the Dave's sauce with honey! It's very tasty.

The chicken is phenomenal. I wish they had a little bit more on the menu, but I understand. Service is okay but not superb. It's really busy inside. 

Business response:

Glad you’re a fan of the chicken! We keep the menu simple to focus on quality, but we hear you. Appreciate the feedback, and hope to see you again soon!

It was our first time at a Dave's, and Martin was so helpful in explaining the menu! I'm allergic to nuts and was able to safely eat here because they had an allergen menu available! The restaurant is very clean and the staff was friendly. We will be back! 

Business response:

Thanks for the wonderful review, Vanessa! We’re so glad Martin was able to help and that you felt comfortable dining with us. It’s great to hear the allergen menu made a positive impact on your experience. We look forward to seeing you again soon!

I love Dave's hot chicken. It's a little bit of an addiction of mine. However, I love it when staff members stand out and make the experience that much better. Haley was so pleasant, recommending the right spice levels based off what my likes were, she was warm, friendly and a total doll. Thanks Team! You definitely know how to hire the right people.

I love coming to Dave's Hot Chicken! I usually go with their chicken sandwich with fries combo. The food here is amazing, I love that they give you the option to select your spice seasoning level for your chicken. I usually go with their medium spice seasoning, but if I am feeling bold I'll try their hot or extra hot. I can never order enough of their Dave's sauce, it's too good to avoid. The prices are fair and reasonable. The combo I went with was about $11. The chicken sandwich is great, enough seasoning in the chicken a... read more
