I think it's better and fresher than Popeyes. Staff seems friendlier. May cost a bit more but worth it IMO. I don't ever recall a line at the drive through and can't comment on inside but staff at window seemed friendly and order has always been correct

We are so glad you enjoyed your visit and appreciate you taking the time to post a review! -Julie

The boys in Blue Öyster Cult had it down right when they said Don't Fear the Reaper. At least where Dave's Carolina Reaper slider is concerned. I thought heat had finally met its match when I read a news story saying Dave's made customers sign a liability waiver when ordering a sandwich or chicken tender including Carolina Reaper peppers. "You acknowledge that eating the REAPER can cause you harm, including, but not limited to, bodily injury, property damage, emotional distress, or even death," the waiver reads, according ... read more

Excellent food, excellent staff. Amazingly clean restaurant. It was spotless and there were staff cleaning the already spotless place. But the service is where they shined. Either I ordered the wrong meal or the lady heard me wrong, but they only charged me for a slider instead of a tender and a slider. I wasn't paying attention so didn't notice it. When I went to pick up the order, I was confused. So I asked, "Oh, did I not pay for the larger meal?" The lady confirmed I'd not. However the manager was having none of ... read more

This place is a solid 3.5. The chicken looks like it is hand breaded. It is super moist. The buns on the sandwich was pretty awesome also. Soft. Seemed like a potato bread. I could be wrong. . I got the medium heat and honestly, there wasn't any heat at all. Maybe go another level if you want to taste some spice. The fries I got extra crispy. They were good. Seasoned well. Their fry sauce was basic. Wish it had some sort of kick to it. The pickles had a great crunch. The other order was supposed to come with cheese fries, I ... read more

Dave's.....did we just become best friends? You know me. Somehow, someway, you have been watching me since high school all those decades ago and you know me. Okay folks, food is flipping delicious. Let's just get that out of the way. Doesn't matter what you get it's gunna be bangin. Bit of info, the medium was...well very medium and is a good choice for those who are heat sensitive. Hot was not overpowering but could start to feel a little bit, really I would have gone up to very hot now knowing what I know. Cheese fry's o... read more

Business response:

Dave (the chicken) is a little embarrassed that you found out about him watching you all those years but more than anything glad that you loved his food! Thanks for the review!

We are here a few weeks ago and I totally forgot to write a review. First and foremost very clean location with lots of helpful employees. You do order then sit down. We did a Yelp check in and they gave us a free milkshake which was awesome because we were able to try their milkshakes and definitely that was 10/10. In regards to the food, it's good chicken, nothing out of this world. I love that you have the option to choose your seasoning to it (from mild to spicy). We tried one with no seasoning at all (for my little o... read more

We loved it! First time, came at 11:45 for lunch on a Friday. No line, plenty of parking, vast open and clean restaurant with plenty of seating. Cool decor! I got two tenders with fries and mac and cheese. I'm a spicy girl, and couldn't decide what level heat to go with - but was pleasantly surprised when she said I could pick a different level for each tender. Hot and extra hot. 1 tender would have been plenty for me! They were giant - no kids meal size tenders here. Great juicy, crispy, quality chicken. Delicious flavor ... read more
