First time trying this chain ... owned partly by Drake, right!? Haha. Anyway, fantastic fried chicken.

Well, since I wasn't overly disappointed the first time, I decided to give the place a second try a while back. And just as I thought, ordering extra hot was a good step up from the spice level labeled as hot. Wasn't spicy enough to give me heartburn, which would've been desirable for something labeled "extra hot," however, it was at least spicy enough to have a better balance between the heat and other seasonings. And I will give Dave's Hot Chicken credit for at least turning out a pretty juicy and overall flavorful piece o... read more

That's a damn good little meal. Little steep on the price for an all the time quick dine but tasty.

Crinkle fries - ok soft pillowy good seasoning. Mediocre but works. Pickles Cisco. Bored. Dave's sauce is a less sour version of thousand island Chicken juicy. Breading crunchy but not overwhelming. It's like a chicken finger that was in the frier longer. Not Nashville hot chicken. Missing that chicken fat. Bun average. Slaw holds it all together. Extra hot got my attention but wasn't so spicy i needed water Staff energetic and nice.

YAM - I am about this place. The 2 slider combo can absolutely serve 2 people. The sandwich is not what you could consider a slider, but it definitely packs a punch both with flavor and heat! I loved it and will definitely be back whenever I'm on the east side. the Mac and cheese was very meh, so pass on that, but the bread and fries were *chef's kisses*. Enjoy inside or take it to go at a park and you won't be disappointed.

Great food! Great flavor! Fast service (through drive thru at least, I haven't been inside) and not too pricey compared to competition. Will be going there again. Sliders and Mac and cheese are fireeee

To be honest, I wasn't expecting what I got. I was literally blown away. I had heard a few friends talk about this place today and have been looking to spoil myself a little, so after work, I ordered while in my car and drove over right away. 7 minutes. That's all it took. 7 minutes and I don't think I'll ever get chicken from another place again. Absolutely amazing! I ordered 2 strips(mild), fries, and a slider(hot). I know... way too much for one person. The light crispy breading with dry rub and the Dave's sauce . Like I ... read more

Great food and ambiance. Dave's has managed to keep the same original taste from its initial SoCal location here in Madison as well. To top it off, it's Halal!

The chicken sandwich wars are over and the victor is Dave's Hot Chicken! The flavor and tenderness of their slider puts all of their competitors to shame. I started with the mild but plan on working my way up the spice offerings. The place exceptionally clean and the staff is very friendly.
