The bites were so good and moist. The help was great at helping us decide what to order. The medium hot was a bit spicy for our taste. We liked the mild the best. We will definitely be back. 

Business response:

Glad you enjoyed the bites, Craig! Medium can definitely bring some heat, but sounds like mild was the winner for you. Appreciate the love—hope to see you back soon!

First time trying Dave's Hot Chicken and I wasn't expecting anything so I loved it!! The chicken was buttery with a kick! And the pieces were big! Lots of pickles if you like that! And Dave's sauce did not disappoint! Fries were good and seasoned! Instead of lettuce it's Cole slaw so that was different and delicious. Customer service was excellent, everyone was nice and took the time to explain the flavors and menu! I love the location and access! Not bad! Will come back! Good stuff! Definitely try it! 

Business response:

Love to hear that we caught you by surprise in the best way! Buttery chicken with a kick and plenty of pickles—sounds like you found your perfect combo. Appreciate the kind words about our team too. Can’t wait to have you back!

I've been to many hot chicken spots but nothing compares to Dave's! The chicken is always hot,juicy, and tender. Spices are packed with flavor and have different heat levels for your liking. Forgot to mention the Dave's sauce and crispy fries which are a great compliment to the chicken ! 

Business response:

This is the kind of high praise we love! Hot, juicy, and packed with flavor—that’s what we aim for. Appreciate you calling out the fries and sauce too. Looking forward to your next visit!

Finally tried this hot chicken place. Safely chose a Medium spice level slider, which actually is the size of a burger. Next time I'll go one level higher. First taste was initially sweet with a spicier after taste. The chicken is large and crispy. Love the cabbage slaw and dill pickles in the slider and plentifully on the side. The sauce tastes like In N Out special sauce or like Thousand Island salad dressing. Fries are great crinkle cut ones and mildly seasoned. Service was sufficient. Inside is clean, quiet with gr... read more

Appreciate the thoughtful breakdown! Sounds like you really got the full experience. Next time, let us know how that spice level upgrade goes! Thanks for stopping by, and hope you find a good deal on the app for your next visit!
