This was a new restaurant that came to town recently and I was finally able to try it out! I ordered I believe it was the number one combo which is chicken tenders and fries and a drink. I got the medium level of heat and although the fries and the tenders were very good the medium heat did have a kick to it the service was phenomenal. We were served very fast and friendly, and the ambience was moderately loud but for a quick bite to eat, especially if you like hot items or spicy items this is definitely the spot to go again... read more

We stopped at Dave's hot chicken on our way to Long Beach. I got the one tender slider. It was pretty huge as far as sliders go it was more like a sandwich size. I got the spice, medium and added, honey on top of my sandwich. The sandwich had one Dave's hot chicken tender coleslaw, pickles on a delicious brioche bun. My husband got the two tender combo with french fries. Their fries are in my top five. I love them and crave them often. Our food was very fresh and the service was pretty good. We did order our food on the self... read more

Pleasantly surprised! We tried this spot twice this week -- once with no spice on the chicken tenders and once with mild for me and medium for my partner. They have a hierarchy for spice level that you're able to choose from when you order. My box came with mild chicken tenders, seasoned French fries, pickles and 2 pieces of white bread. It also came with Dave's sauce. The tenders were really tasty -- extra large and the breaded is nice and crunchy. The mild was just that -- mild but still adding flavor with the other spic... read more

I was pleasantly surprised just happen to be going by. I needed something quick for lunch so I stopped. I'm not normally a white meat guy or a chicken strip guy, but it was very tender, Juicy, tasty. I just might go back.

Hot chicken is optional when u order . I tried the mild which has flavor with a lil bit of sweetness to it but I feel it's just okay . I prefer other chicken establishments before this one . I had the slider and the strip which to me is the same just a lil change in scenery. Fries were sprinkled in the the same powder as chicken . To each there own

Pretty huge changes to the portion of the chicken tender this week. I would surmise it's a 30% or more reduction and they no longer stick out from under the slider bun. While this might be okay for a leader at a bar it's an abrupt modification. Taste is still good but impacted by smaller thickness of tender versus fryer oil and coating. So went from near perfection to a modified version. Maybe John Taffet came in and modified for profit and I don't appreciate it. 

Business response:

Thanks for sharing your experience with us. It looks like we have some room to wow you next time. We'd love the chance to make it up to you—please reach out at http://tellusdirect.com/dhc so we can get started.

I'm not a big hot chicken fan or even a fired chicken sandwich fan, but Dave's got me liking their sandwiches. I get the light mild because I'm not a fan of eating anything that prevents me from tasting the food and only tasting the heat. That's a good sandwich. Great seasoning, crispy outer and moist tender interior. It's almost a perfect chicken sandwich. Beats any I've had Chick-fil-a, Popeyes, Canes or any other fast food chain. Servers are very friendly and the place is clean. Definitely worth more visits for their sand... read more
