Dave's Hot chicken is my favorite place to grab a Hot Chicken sandwich. Across from the Sacramento and the Union city location, both of them have consistently given me no reason to complain about the way they season their chicken sandwich. The only issue I have is their spiciest level of chicken sandwich tastes significantly worse than their hot level. At the reaper spice the chicken sandwich tastes bitter, whereas the hot seems to nail it just right. Mixing the spicy chicken sandwich with honey just hits just right. The swe... read more

This was my first time here and used the drive thru to order. Itzel was very helpful and friendly. She asked if it was my first time and had any questions on the menu. I did not feel rushed to order and was a good first time experience. They made sure to include sauces and utensils in the bag. Got home and the chicken was fresh and delicious. Loved it

Great for the family. My son and I tried the Reeper level and needed a shake to cool us down. Maryah was very helpful and made sure that we were ok.

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
