Came for dinner on Saturday night. At first glance, there was a ton of people waiting toward the front of the store - they are new so I knew it would be busy which wasn't an issue. They didn't really say how to get the food so I just followed what everyone else was doing and standing at the front. People were pissed, the workers looked drained and upset, and people had apparently been waiting forever. I ended up waiting AN HOUR for my food. They need better organization. They need an intercom so they don't need to have every... read more

First time visit. Simple menu made ordering quick and easy. Food came out very quickly and was accurate. I usually like some heat and ordered the medium sauce. I was feeling the heat, but it was really good! The chicken was so juicy and flavorful, Mac and cheese was creamy, and the seasoned fries were delicious. My mouth is watering just writing this review. Definitely coming back! 

Business response:

Glad you were able to handle it!!! Thanks for the love!

The food is great. The chicken is crispy and can spiced to taste. For me, medium was plenty spice and I enjoy spice food. We went Saturday night and the place was packed. Most of the people order online and pick up. This unfortunately cause a huge backlog. We order at 6:06 and didn't get our food till 7. Not sure if the kitchen is slow because the kitchen is understaffed or because they were overwhelmed because it was a busy Saturday night. The restaurant is on the small side but the local art is beautiful. They should inve... read more

This is my favorite chicken. The hot is super spicy, but not overwhelming, especially with Dave's sauce. The crinkle cut fries are crispy and delicious. The mac n cheese is creamy and cheesey goodness. Your food is prepped quickly and tastes fresh. It just opened, so it's been pretty busy so far, but seating was ample. I like that a local artist was used to paint the mural inside to make people feel welcome. I appreciate the hours of operation (open until midnight Fridy and Saturday) for the late-night munchies.

Thank you for the kind words! We are happy that you had great experience with us!

Wow this is hands down the most delicious chicken around. Real moist chicken in various levels of spicy, staff that are friendly and customer service oriented. They are busy which is no surprise once you have tried their chicken. The restaurant was clean which is always important.

Thank you!!!

There is not much variation in the menu but the chicken is good. Try the Mac and cheese. It was pretty busy at lunch on Saturday but the staff still got our order fairly quickly. Good!

Let me start off by saying WOW !!!! We have never had Daves Hot Chicken before but when they announced their opening. Everyone was raving about them so we had to try. Today was finally that day since we were in town and mmyyy goooosshh. No exaggeration this was some of the best chicken tenders I have ever had! They have a nice crunch to it ( they aren't the crunchiest but it does not take away from their yummy goodness) The chicken is seriously so tender and juicy! I cried happy tears! Like what the heck Dave you really di... read more

Dave's Hot Chicken has been all I've heard about lately and so I had to try it! I was extremely satisfied and glad that I did! One thing to understand is that its a new, hot, and upcoming restaurant so the wait times may be a little high, but it's worth the wait! The staff is extremely kind and understanding, and they were definitely trying their best to get the food out as quick and efficiently as possible. Overall the chicken was amazing, the fries perfect, and the sauce was delicious! Not to mention the portions are ... read more

Very small portions and the extra hot chicken sandwich was not even spicy, considering that it's the second from the top on the spice level. The chicken sandwiches are tiny. I was expecting them to be bigger, in fact I was expecting a lot more in general considering all the buzz it's been getting! I made an online order to skip the long line!
