Dave's Hot Chicken is popping up all over Portland! You can't miss their vibrant buildings, especially this NE Sandy location with all the graffiti outside and in, most portraying aportland Icons giving this national chain a local vibe. But your reading this to find out about the food so let's get to it. First, some context. I'm not a fast food person, rarely go to the famous burger or taco or chicken chains. I'd rather go To a food truck for fresh, fast food. But I tried Dave's a few weeks ago in Beaverton and I was impre... read more

I don't eat a lot of hot chicken but I do like a crunch in the breading. Maybe it was an execution thing but my 2 chicken fingers had almost no crunch at all. Other than that, it was ok. The crinkle fries were awesome. I don't get the white bread under the chicken. Finger sandwich? Maybe a SOCAL thing? LOL I'll give it another try and get the sliders.

I ordered dine in with my family and there was an employee in the back that came out to make sure my baby didn't get spicy fries and went out of her way to make a special cheese bread from my toddler without me asking. Quick and easy, yummy chicken sandwiches.

Pretty damn good. This chicken is SEASONED. Definitely get some honey with it to even out the saltiness. I got mild and it had a little kick. The "sliders" aren't sliders, they are a whole ass sandwich. I could only eat one and was stuffed. 2 people can definitely share the 2 slider combo with maybe an extra side. 1 person would be fine with 1 slider meal. The staff was super friendly. Drive thru is kinda weird, they ask for your name ( I think so they can refer to you?) and the window is a door they come in and out of. ... read more

Had the slider, with fries and mac'n cheese. Best chicken sandwich I have ever had, hands down. Kinda spendy but worth it. Why save a few bucks and be disappointed with something from one of the other chicken chains? I will be going back.

This place is fine. We got pretty much what we expected. We ordered the Slider/Tender combo x2. One medium, one hot, both subbed fries for one Mac&cheese and one slaw. The chicken wasn't dry at all and the bread was pretty good. The hot was surprisingly spicy for me but both had good flavor. I really enjoyed all the pickles. The mac & cheese and slaw were just okay but I read their fries weren't anything to write home about either. Solid fried chicken place but def a place you'd get your food to go - prob wouldn't choose to ... read more

A mixed experience, but the chicken is very good. + flavorful, juicy chicken tenders + dry rub! Not drowning in sauce! + very friendly service + used my name when handing me the food, nice touch + you can mix heat levels within an order, so I got one med and one hot -- they have seven levels, I think?! - why couldn't I just use the drive thru? The strange extra step of waiting on a curve and ordering with a human standing at my door looking cold was odd since it was not super busy or anything. - they were supposed to sub ... read more

The chicken is good but damn... It's expensive. The Mac & Cheese was was overcooked and really mushy but the flavor was good. That seems like an easy fix. I would for sure make this a regular place if it was 30% cheaper.

We'd really love a second chance to earn those 2 extra stars. If you have a few extra seconds, would you mind connecting with us at https://tellusdirect.com/dhc? -Julie
