Good chicken, got it to go, medium spice, the bread was wonderbread with a little butter on it. For the size of the meal I wouldn't say it's bad, it's not great either. They do have some good options, wanted a little spice and didn't really get it, I was sad considering it's Dave's hot chicken. But now I know you have to go up in spice level if you actually want spice

First time trying Dave's Hot Chicken and I am impressed. They have fried chicken sandwiches, chicken tenders and fries. New to their menu is fried cauliflower which you can get as a sandwich or as bites. They have 7 heat levels from no spice to reaper. We got the two sliders with fries combo and a side of the cauliflower bites and it was perfect for two people to share. We got mild which was perfect my partner who can't handle much heat. Fried chicken was tender but a little salty for my taste. Would have been nice to have... read more

I've been to Dave's twice now and have had such good experiences! I don't really like spice so the first time I ordered 2 tenders and got one naked and the other lite mild so I could try it. The lite mild ended up being perfect for me! It's definitely more of a flavor than spice which I loved. We were helped by Miguel today and he was so nice! He gave multiple tips + recommendations since he could tell we were new to Dave's. The restaurant was clean and had music playing. I'll definitely be back! 

Business response:

Clearly they are doing something correctly with how fast they've expanded. Of all the hot chicken places this is one of the best.

Exceptional customer service. The staff were polite, friendly and efficient. You have to order at the counter and they call your number when the foods ready. There was a queue when I got here but the staff got through it quick and the food was served in no time. Love their chicken sliders! The wall decor is space themed and fun! 

Business response:

Thank you for the glowing 5-star review! We're thrilled you had such a great time. Ready to make every visit as awesome as the last!

First time at Dave's Hot Chicken and Evelyn was super helpful and patient. She went through the different menu items with me and the different spice levels. I ended up getting a slider and a tender with cheese fries. Food was really good and fast. Will definitely be back.

We're all cheers over here! Thanks for being amazing, and here’s to many more awesome experiences with you!
