The outside seating area is filthy, condoms laying out and tables gross. The inside wasn't great wait her with pickles on floor and grease all over tables and chairs. Sucks because the food was delicious.

Tried Dave's at the suggestion of friends who said it was better than another favorites local chicken spot. My son had the slider/chicken tender combo #3 and I just had a single slider. You can get it with or without cheese so we went with cheese at the suggestion of the cashier. We ordered it medium spice and it was perfect. Not scorching by any means but a good heat if you like spicy. The fries have a Cajun seasoning and were a nice change. The chicken tender has a LOT of Cajun seasoning and by itself was a bit overwhelmin... read more
