Omg this place is amazing. My teenage boys love this place. My oldest is picking colleges based on if there's a Dave's hot chicken close to campus. He always orders super hot. I can't handle that level of spice. I normally just get medium. What's interesting is that the Menomonee falls branch is much less spicer than the east side version. If I'm in the falls I will order hot. If I'm on the east side I'm ordering medium. Basically adjust your spice levels by one if you eat in Milwaukee vs Menomonee falls. I guess... read more

I had my doubts at first because of how competitive the chicken industry has become after the "spicy chicken sandwich war" and everyone trying to innovate new ways to be unique. Dave's Hot Chicken allows you to pick a spice level of your choosing and curates a lovely meal with the most tender/crispy pieces of chicken battered in spice, giving the chicken a "red" and "flavorful" look. It isn't just looks though, it's that tasty. One thing I do want to add is that the prices are high, especially for the proportions your r... read more

We ordered for delivery and it was delicious! Obviously it's a risk ordering anything to go as the food isn't fresh from the kitchen. Even so, this was so good. I am not good with spicy things, so the mild lite was perfect for me. I could probably go up a notch and get mild next time. My husband loves spice! The medium was nothing to him, and hot was hot in the most perfect way. I'm craving it again right now. The dipping sauce was also amazing. We both said we were perfectly full after one slider but got the two to try othe... read more

I underestimated this place! I had heard of it but never tried it. The new location in Milwaukee has been open a few months now and it always seems decently busy. It's also clearly racked up a good amount of great reviews- and they did not lie. I ordered online late on a Sunday night and went into the store to pick up about 10 minutes later when the order was stated to have been ready. When I arrived there were at least 2 dozen people waiting for orders, which did scare me. I gave the host my name and she told me it would b... read more

Dave's hot chicken is great! I got the special that comes with 2 hot chicken sliders, fries, pickles, and Dave's sauce. I also added cheese to both sliders. The chicken was tender and the spice level was perfect. It wasn't so spicy that it took over but it was more like a spicy flavor. The sauce mixed with honey ended up being a great dipping sauce for the sandwich and the fries. The service was fast and the workers were really nice. The place itself was clean and the music was great. Overall would definitely go back and may... read more

The chicken sliders were so tender and juicy and had a great amount of flavor with the extra honey and daves sauce! Also the customer service was great and all the employees were happy and cheerful about asking how my experience was. The hot spice level is definetly hot af but so worth it! 2 sliders and Cajun fries for 15$n overall great experience and would go back!
