My wife won't like this review update, but I need to stand by my rating of Dave's Hot Chicken. Though how I feel about this place now, in comparison to similar hot chicken spots around the county, may feel like a bit of a slight. Simply stated, Dave's Hot Chicken is the second best chicken sandwich place I've reviewed here on Yelp. It is far superior to the bulk of spots I've dined at over the last few years, but itself falls far behind my number one favorite (Red Chickz in Carlsbad - Crack Shack is in its own category ).... read more

it's pretty good . food is good . it's clean and good seating area. workers are cool . the only thing is that they have messed up my order a couple of times . I ask for NO pickles, and they give me pickles only and no Coleslaw on my sliders (I love coleslaw) and sometimes they just literally forget to put my fries in. Pretty annoying . Other than that , Pretty good.

I took my son and his friends here after they all helped me clean out the shed in the backyard as a treat and I have to say that the young kid, white, curly hair, about 5'7-9", was so helpful and sweet. Not just when he took our order, but even after we sat down. Super cool kid and very polite. The setting was pretty chill, too, good environment and has an outside dining area. The food was pretty good, but my favorite was the fries.
