Finally got around to checking this spot out and I was very pleased. I got it through DoorDash so I was half expecting it to be soggy, but everything was really good. The breading on the chicken was so flavorful and crispy. The slaw and pickles were also very tasty. The macaroni was pretty bland but I cut up some pieces of the chicken and threw them in and that fixed it up. Would definitely come back.

I've been to the original Prince's Hot Chicken in Nashville, where the style was invented, so everything gets measured to that. This one is damned good. Authentic. Some places say "Nashville Hot Chicken", and it sometimes tastes like many things, none of which are "Nashville Hot Chicken". This place tastes like "Nashville Hot Chicken". Had the "extra hot". It is. Trust them. Not "wasp sting on the tongue" hot, mind you. This isn't "competition eating" hot. But you'd better be a "real hot" veteran if you choose to order this... read more

First of all the food was excellent everything tasted so good! The service was fast and took less than 3 minutes to get my food out to me and my friends. Also the restaurant was quiet and was overall a good place to sit down and eat! Would come again.

LOVE ME TENDER(S) What Dave's Hot Chicken lacks in variety, they make up for in consistency. For the last couple years, I've been seeking the ultimate Nashville hot chicken experience, whether it's a sandwich or breaded tender. Some have come close (Fry the Coop) and others have been middling at best. Dave's makes a more-than-decent effort. Dave's Hot Chicken has a few locations in the Chicago area: on North Ave in Melrose Park, on Western Ave in the city, and this one in Naperville at the northwest corner of Route 59 &... read more

Decent chicken. Okay fries. They do have a good selection of varying heat to add to the chicken. You can also get your chicken with out heat.

It was okay. The breading was something I wasn't used to and it was fried a little more than necessary to be chicken breast strips. The service was fast and friendly. Did not eat in so I'm unsure of anything else.

Quick, high quality bites from this franchise! We had to make sure we were in Naperville and not Nashville! Environment: Order at the counter and pick up your own food. The place was packed when we visited (a Thursday afternoon), and we actually had to wait a few minutes to claim a table. The space is really small, but definitely got a sense of casual comfort as well. This place is the perfect spot for friends to grab a quick and delicious meal. Food: Even though it was busy, the food came out in 10-15 mins tops. We tried... read more

Outstanding all around. My girl loves the chicken slider without any heat or spice, just plain. I want extra hot and all the fixins. However, I go takeout and I'm 20 minutes away so instead of putting all the condiments on the sandwich and making it a mess during the ride, they'll put everything on the side. Great job, great staff. Also, fries are great but get side of cheese cup. Very impressed with everything other than the location which is kind of hidden so be aware when using Waze or Maps because it just pops... read more

This place has the most fire chicken. My girl and I got this for dinner, and we couldn't even finish our food because it's so filling and satisfying. #ChickenSandwich #ChickenTenders
