If you haven't yet, you may want to get your hands on this perfectly seasoned, breaded and deep fried chicken. Get it with the heat or without, either way you will not be disappointed.

i got #3 (1 slider + 1 tender + fries) with medium spice, and i really liked it! i can withstand a decent amount spice, but i don't love a lot of it, and i think this was just right. my piece of advice is to just go ahead and get #2 -- the kale slaw and bread really elevates the chicken, and it felt almost like a waste to get that tender instead of 2 sliders. i guess you could say it seems "overpriced" just by looking at the *quantity* of the food, but it's so filling i would say it's well worth the price. i was only able t... read more

That little area on Showplace drive is really turning into a busy spot! With Dave's Hot Chicken opening I'm sure it will get even crazier. I was drawn to this place because I'd peeped their menu and was delighted to find that they have mild and lite mild flavor for their chicken! Yes, I know it's counter-intuitive, but while I love the concept of hot chicken, I hate heat. Full flavored and lots of spices + no heat + fried chicken sounds like a dream! So we went tonight and did the drive thru as the line was wrapped around th... read more

I want to preface this review by saying I've been to the LA Dave's dozens of times so I'm very familiar with the quality that they uphold. With that being said the buns at this location was very dry and had the texture of cardboard I'm pretty sure they use higher quality buns in California. The chicken was also too salty. They also fill up the tray with fries in California for the combo order there was a lower quantity here. The flavor and the heat were there but the quality and quantity must be improved. I hope you can take... read more

I don't get it. The place was busy. It took forever to get the food and it was barely warm. The chicken tasted terrible. The fries were just ok. The Dave's Sauce wasn't good. This is a once and done. This particular establishment was filthy. The staff was very nice though. 

Business response:

Oh no! We're very sorry we let you down. We would like to make this right. Would you be willing to connect with us at dhcfeedback.com so we can get a second chance to impress you?

Love their chicken tenders. When in the area, will pass up Cane's to grab Dave's. Three of us had 7 great tenders but I got ripped off on the gratuity! I pushed 10% tip on a $41.42 bill but when I got home and looked at the receipt it wasn't $4.14 but rather $8.05! Shame on me for not looking at the receipt before we left! Great reason why I won't leave a tip next time I am in at Dave's. 

Business response:

Wow, you just made our day! Thanks a bunch for the stellar review. We’re super happy you had such a great time with us!

Not a Naperville local so i wanted to try Dave's. Ordered food for pickup and when i got home 30 mins later I noticed they completely messed up my order. I called and the manager said no problem we will write it down and take care of you next time you are in the area. I called when i was in the area again and they acted completely oblivious and said we can't do anything. Was on hold and then spoke with manager for over 30 minutes and said I'm not going to help you or do anything. Manager name was Jordan..avoid at all cost. H... read more
