This was my first time trying Dave's Hot Chicken and it did not disappoint. I got a meal that came with 2 sandwiches. I ate on while driving down country roads easily and the other was STILL CRISPY when my husband ate it an hour later. We both liked it enough to add it to our - When in Waco, list, as it is the closest at an hour away. 

Business response:

The food is very good. Warning .... It's more on the hot scale. I enjoy hot seasoning, but can only handle medium. Clean and open space. Easy freeway access even during construction. It might be a little more expensive, but worth it. 

Business response:

People like you are what keep us going. We appreciate the love and support. Hope to have you back soon!

We got the sliders with fries and it is honestly so filling that it becomes two meals! The chicken was perfectly cooked and came out hot. The fries are also consistently crispy at this particular location which I appreciate alot! The staff was friendly and service was pretty fast even during the lunch rush!

I really hate that I liked this place so much, but it's good chicken. I heard the story on a podcast and happened to drive by one, so we stopped in. The sliders are the size of a regular chicken sandwich, the tenders are the size of a breast fillet and the flavor slaps. Chicken was moist and crispy with the prefect spice level. (I got the second to hottest) Spice was perfectly spicy, my kids got the medium which was still tasty. The pickles are perfectly crispy/sour as they compliment the chicken bite!! Fries are dusted with... read more

Finally tried Dave's Hot Chicken and it was a highly satisfactory experience. The mini chicken sliders paired with fries were a great combination.

Moreover, the Dave's sauce made a strong impression, possibly even outdoing Raising Cane's sauce. Regrettably, my selection of the lite mild flavor led to an absence of the spice I wanted. On my next visit, I will level up to mild or medi... read more
