Finally a hot chicken spot I can get behind. As of late, there are so many hot chicken spots opening around the bay area! Safe to say the hot chicken industry is getting a bit stuffy and saturated. To be able to make this claim as my go to hot chicken spot in Oakland, I had to try majority of their menu in all different heat settings (I have not tried the Reaper yet though). With that being said, the food executes on a high level and my taste buds were dancing. Please note that I am a bit bias as I live pretty close to he... read more

This spot is about a block away from work. A lot of hype so I decided to check it out. It did not disappoint! I got the 1 slider and w chicken finger meal. The chicken tasted really fresh. Their sauce is so good! If you're in the area and want chicken fingers, I recommend!

I absolutely love this place and the food is so good. The manager Holly is next level. She really took care of us in a horrible situation.

A quick place for getting your lunch. The food is made to order and the quantity is ample for one person. The fries is seasoned and taste good but less crispy would be great if it was bit more crispy. The chicken tenders is of decent size with good spice kick to it. The lunch dishes start from $9.95 to $14.95 with side options for which you pay separately. For the price and quality it is a good balance. Bottom line will visit this place again.

The food was pretty good I don't have any complaints.. the spice is a dry rub.. it doesn't taste like dry Cinnamon I tried hot and extra hot.. Hot was more of a medium spice and extra hot was a decent level of spice my nose started running but nothing too major. The sandwich could have had more slaw for my liking and the side of fries were hefty .. I actually gave most away to an unhoused person because I couldn't finish them.. all food was served hot and fresh 5/5 customer service They don't have ranch .. their Dave sauce... read more

Got the slider and tender combo with fries and an extra side of slaw and mac n cheese. I'm a wimp when it comes to spice so ordered it mild and it still had enough kick. Chicken was juicy, fries were perfectly crispy and delicious, mac n cheese was alright, slaw didn't have much dressing on it so that's my only complaint. Definitely coming back!

Dave's is a good fried chicken spot. I got their hottest and wasn't impressed by the spice level. I do however like their fries (think hot Boys crinkle cut with seasoning). The have sliders instead of sandwiches at a reasonable price 6.75 for one 13 after tax for a combo one slider and fries side. Their special is pretty bomb I'll give them that. I would go back but not for the heat but for the quality of food. Fast grab and go ambiance, with sit down option. The service was very friendly and for how busy they were our food ... read more
