I bought into the hype I have been seeing on the chilihead forums and gave this chain a shot. Can't speak to the dining area of the place itself because I have only ordered delivery through them. I will say of the half dozen times I have ordered from them, the chicken and fries have been cooked perfect every time. A+ for consistency. On to the chicken, I usually order the 2 strips and fries. For all my fellow chiliheads, yes the reaper is technically the spiciest one but it is all heat and not too much else going o... read more

Dave's Hot Chicken is a must-try for anyone who loves flavorful and spicy food. The chicken is always cooked to perfection, with a crispy exterior and juicy interior. Their different spice levels let you customize your heat experience, and the sides, like kale slaw and mac & cheese, complement the chicken perfectly. The atmosphere is laid-back and the service is quick, making it a great spot for a casual meal.

Dave's Hot Chicken delivers bold, flavorful Nashville-style hot chicken that's juicy, crispy, and packed with heat. Their spice levels range from "No Spice" to "Reaper," catering to every tolerance. The chicken is tender with a perfect crunchy coating, and the sliders -- topped with pickles and Dave's sauce -- are especially satisfying. Sides like crinkle-cut fries and mac and cheese complement the main dishes well. The portions are generous, and the vibe is casual and fun. Prices are fair for the quality and size. Overall, ... read more

I don't usually write reviews, but I HAD to shout out Olivia O for her amazing customer service at Dave's Hot Chicken. From the moment I walked in, she greeted me with such a genuine smile and positive energy -- it totally made my day. She was super helpful with the menu (I can never decide between medium or hot ) and even checked in on me after I got my food to make sure everything was perfect -- which it was! The sliders were as always, and the fries hit different when the service is this good. In a world where fast fo... read more

The milkshake was GOOD, thick like a milkshake should be. I got the medium spice slider and fries. Good amount of spice but not very spicy over all. Quick service, and very helpful too, several times people came around and asked us if we needed anything, for a fast food joint it was surprising! The place is a bit loud though, hard to hear people but the food was good!

First of all GREAT customer service, it is my first time going here. Itzel was my server (very nice young lady) she warned me that the Reaper was extremely hot, I did not listen. Warning that Reaper is no joke, it tore me up for a while. Itzel brought me a soft serve, and it 100% knocked the heat out. Definitely recommend coming here just for the great service Itzel provided, and the food.

** 5-Star Review for Dave's Hot Chicken ** If you love spicy, juicy chicken that packs a flavorful punch, Dave's Hot Chicken is an absolute must-try. From the moment I walked in, the vibe was fun, energetic, and welcoming. The Manager Ronaldo was friendly and efficient, and the food came out hot and fresh. I ordered the two-tender combo at medium spice level, and it was *chef's kiss*. The chicken was incredibly crispy on the outside while still tender and juicy inside. The seasoning had the perfect balance of heat and flav... read more
