This place is deee-lish. I've visited twice now with my friends who love coming here for halal hot chicken. I was curious to try hot chicken since I hadn't tried it before Dave's, but let's just say Dave's was a great first experience. The chicken is gloriously crispy and I ordered the medium level which was just right for me - a modest level of spice while still being able to taste the chicken. I tried a bit of my friend's hot-spice level chicken and it was pretty spicy - a good tongue-burning level but you're not quite as... read more

I visited this location for the first time and I am astounded by the quality and affordability! We ordered the #3, a tender and a slider combo. I chose mild and medium to try out both -- definitely recommend the medium if you're a fan of spice but not looking for anything unbearable/uncomfortable. I highly recommend adding honey to the slider, it really ties it all together. Oh! And ask for extra Dave's sauce, it's perfect for the fries. Also, if you live in the area or you're a Rice University student, there's a 15% off d... read more

Omg this place is so good! Loved the chicken, the crisp, the bread, the sauce, the spiciness... their coleslaw is very tasty, not too drenched in dressing, and fresh with a nice crunch. Next time I'll go a notch (or two!) down on the spice scale. I had only done medium but damn, it's a nice kick!

I went with a colleague of mine to eat at this establishment and I was quite pleasantly surprised! The crispy chicken tenders for moist and crispy on the outside... The heat level I chose was medium due to the nature of some mediums are hotter than others. However this particular hot chicken was on point I have to say the Decour inside it was colorful and fun but the food was hands-down delicious if you're looking for a quick fix of hot chicken this is your place!

Finally made it to Dave's. I got the "Reaper" chicken tenders, signed the waiver and was sooooo disappointed at the lack of heat!! I was looking forward to a good burn. Buffalo Wild Wings "BLAZIN" is hotter than their reaper. The waiver is just a scare tactic. However the chicken and sauce are pretty good. Hopefully they'll come up with a hotter reaper!

Came here on a Saturday night and it was relatively empty. We ordered the #2 (~$14) which came w two sliders and fries. The order took 30 mins to finish even though it was sparse. The slider was kind of small but the chicken was super flavorful and the tart pickle cut it well. I do think the sliders were pricey given the size, but I was pretty full afterwards. The crinkle cut fries were really good, salted perfectly and stands well on their own.

Food was delicious! Wait time was horrible but that's expected with good food. I wouldn't take it to go as it's fresh fresh, ours got soggy on the way home from the steam. Definitely added to our list of go to places

Food is always amazing, but we had lunch there today and Ojinga was the employee working in the front - quite possibly the nicest guy ever. So helpful, attentive, and was so friendly. Loved our experience today more than usual because of him.
