I may be white but damn the reaper chicken is some mid level spice although really good chicken. inside of the store is to packed and loud around lunch time but the outside is nice and quiet. 9/10 would eat here again (keep in mind this user has a high spice tolerance)

I live in the neighborhood. I was excited to see a new resturant. I have come for dine in, take out and drive through. Every experience I've had here has been varied. Only the last couple times (2/24) has it been consistent when coming through the drive through. I always get the single tender in hot. The hot is a bit spicy. But the slice of white bread is nice if it gets a little too hot. The pickles also are great! I love the combo with the spicy chicken. The last two times I have come through the chicken was cooked great.... read more

I wanted to update my review after eating Dave's for a second time. The first time we had Dave's hot chicken, it was very average and over priced. On a recent exhausting day, my husband suggested we try it again as they are just up the street from us. This time, the food was excellent, some of the best chicken tenders I've had, very moist, perfect meat and a crispy exterior. I'm a spice wimp, but was still okay with the medium level. The fries were very crispy and tasty as well. I love the pickles, don't understand the n... read more

Was out with a friend and discussing food spots around town that have opened since I last visited, Dave's came up and the sides were highly recommended. Thought I would give it a taste test and tried the Mac&cheese and the Kale Salad. Not a kale fan really but this side was pretty good! The M&C was also good, very rich and creamy. Didn't need anymore food but wouldn't have another opportunity to try so I did. Worth the visit.

We were visiting Portland with family and our kids recommended this place to try. We loved it! If you are looking for a place to enjoy some delicious hot chicken sandwiches, fries, mac and cheese, and local beers, look no further than Dave's Hot Chicken. This fast-casual restaurant chain, which started as a pop-up in Los Angeles, has expanded to several locations across the US, including Portland, Oregon also, I found few in San Diego, which I was not aware before. It was on a weekday afternoon and place was clean and coz... read more

My son is a huge fan. I'm basing this off of his experience. Portions look healthy and very well seasoned. He went with Medium spice and seemed to truly enjoy it. The slider is much more than a slider as the strip looked more the size of pelican than chicken. You won't go hungry stopping by here. He also wanted a chocolate shake as well. Dave's seems like an overall crowd pleaser.

I've seen a lot of reviews confused about why white bread comes with the chicken strips and I just gotta say "If you're out of touch, just SAY THAT!". I'm originally from Tennessee (Nashville is the birthplace of hot chicken) and all across the deep south, hot chicken dominated before eventually being popularized nationwide leading to the creation of this SoCal (East Hollywood-based) chain. In the south, it's very common to be served a piece of plain white bread with anything from hot chicken, to regular fried, to catfish, ... read more
