Super beautiful service!!! Very fast and customizable spice! The meals was pretty pricy though especially because it came without a drink and or a reasonable size side :/

By far, the best chicken we have eaten in Waco....Everything was fresh. Crispy. Delicious! I got the mild 10 piece. Our son got the loaded fries..... our food was spot on! SO DANG YUMMY!!! Thank you to the staff at Dave's hot chicken for carrying enough to make my food, hot and fresh

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.

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

I'm not big on dry rub chicken. Food was good. I don't have a taste for dry rub chicken. But that's me. Heh

We've driven past Dave's Hot Chicken dozens of times while traveling north on I-35 through Waco and last time we made a planned stop on a little casino road trip. The exterior is eye-catching with some unique artwork and murals. It definitely stands out in a city like Waco. I wasn't there to enjoy the artwork, however. I was on a mission to try the Reaper tender. My wife and I chose to eat inside. It's not a very large restaurant so it was crowded and rather loud. At least it was somewhat clean in the dining area. We orde... read more

One of the best Hot Chicken places around! This is refreshing to have such a master blend of spices to bring some life back to your tastebuds. Service was excellent, the line to the door was handled promptly. The style and atmosphere was really cool and the cool designs done were sick!

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