I got to try it before the grand opening this Friday and all I can say is I'M HOOKED!!!I went with a medium spice level and it has a good kick to it! I tried Dave's for the first time in TX and loved it! The location on Mass Ave is perfect! Paid parking and street parking is available!

Hot freaking chicken! Went to the soft opening of Dave's hot chicken on Mass Ave and it was fantastic! We had the 2 piece Nashville hot chicken sliders in medium and extra hot spice and it was great. The chicken tenders were juicy, fresh, and giant! Crispiness wise, they were on point and the dry rubs tasty and not just hot. The fries were hot and delicious, the chicken sliders came with pickles, kale slaw, Dave's sauce, as well cheese. I'm so happy Indy finally has some quality Nashville style hot chicken and I can't wait t... read more

I was in Indianapolis for business so I decided to stop by Dave's Hot Chicken. Let me start with the good, I ordered chicken tender, and one order of Not Chicken AKA cauliflower wings. They were flavored spectacularly, I got the mild. I also ordered a strawberry fruity Pebbles shake which I later found out after I left the restaurant that she gave me a vanilla when I asked for a strawberry. Now the bad. Even before it got busy after I placed my order, the service was pretty horrible. There was no one checking to see if or... read more

Food usually really good, sometimes you get some Dave's bites that are just breading...this is mostly so y'all can train the people doing carry out to add all of the items into the bag under special requests and maybe give a better handling than just throwing the bag on the counter top and making no eye contact. The person at the register is the face of the location and what I got today made me not want to get Dave's for a while. Like I said good food, I know what a 1 star does when you're trying to get back above 4.5 so I d... read more

I ordered online and scheduled the time for pick up, I went there after 10 minutes after my pick up time to make sure my order should be ready, but no, I still wait another 20 minutes for my order! And there is only 1 table, employees just stand there talking to each other. Not coming back again.

The chicken was just ok. Actually gave me a bit of an upset stomach afterwards. The slider bun fell apart while eating it.

Place was clean and looked really nice! I came here with some friends in the evening and was excited to try it. Then the employee at the counter ignored me and talked to the guys in the kitchen instead, even though I was clearly ready to order and waiting at the register. They were out of the hot style (which was fine! I just ordered medium instead) and I was really disappointed. Food was dry and the bread was literally just toasted white bread. It was definitely not worth the price.
