Dave's Hot Chicken is located by Independence Mall next to Masa sushi. Waited in a long line on their grand opening day, but their staff tried to make the line go as fast as possible. After you place your order with the cashier, wait until your number is called and then sit anywhere inside. There is also outdoor seating. Cool colorful graffiti is painted all over the walls inside. They were pretty fast in getting my order of two sliders and one side ready. Everything was automatically served in to-go boxes. Downsides are t... read more

When we heard there was a new hot chicken chain coming to Wilmington, we knew we wanted to try it ASAP. We decided to take a chance and show up on opening day and arrived around 11:30am. The wait was about 40 minutes, but once we ordered the food came out super fast. It's definitely a little pricey, but even though you only get "two tenders" it's actually a good amount of food with the sides. I think they handled opening day pretty well, only letting in a few guests at a time and managing the line to keep it from getti... read more

Daves Hot Chicken Corporation sold for a Billion dollars this summer. I had to check it out! Food - greasy, flavorless, fries cold. No grilled option, no salad. Service- I came in on crutches, tipped 15% and sat outside. No one bothered to run out food to the table or check on us. Ambiance - sat outside because inside lacked character and was very sterile, no music outside...nothing redeeming about it. Value - got two #3's and one tea. Cost us $38.50. Most meals at Chix filet are around $10......half of what we spent. ... read more

From the time I walked in the door it took 40 minutes for me to get 2 tenders, food is not worth the price at all, for five dollars per tender you're way better off getting a chic fil a sandwich. And the music was on full blast the entire time, so loud you can barely hear yourself think.

We waited 22 minutes after we ordered our food to receive it. Garbages overflowing and every table dirty. We have to clean one. Food was almost cold One and done for us.

Waited in line for 15 minutes to get to the cashier who says we can't order because their card reader had been broken the whole time. I guess make sure you have cash or you can't get your food. The floors were wet as well.

By far the slowest and laziest workers around if you want your food made fast and served warm go somewhere else P.s don't even try a mobile order makes no difference

Ate dinner with my son (10) in May. All the kids his age are talking about it so he really wanted to go. We visited at 5:15pm on a Tuesday. There were 8 others present. And 2 staff working. Tables and floor were dirty. Music was so loud my son and I couldn't have a conversation and he asked to sit outside (dirty tables there, too). Wait was 15 minutes. A bit long for fast food. Expensive for chicken strips and frozen fries ($30 without drinks). Chicken had zero flavor. We had the medium sauce. The chicken (crispy b... read more
