Visited on a Thursday night, arriving quite late. The service we received was outstanding! The guy working there was very attentive and checked in to ensure everything was going well. Despite our arrival during the final 30-45 minutes of their operating hours, they went above and beyond to create a wonderful dining experience (I apologize for the timing, but thank you immensely for your outstanding service)! Ordered #2 (2 Sliders With Fries)The food a hot/fresh. Chicken was perfectly battered, crispy, and seasoned. The fries... read more

I very much enjoy the food, chicken is incredible, servings are much larger than I anticipate, which is good for leftovers! Not quite fast food, but makes you feel like the food is cooked well. No complaints from me!

This is the best food establishment I have ever been to! The tenders were fried and flavored perfectly, and the customer service was beyond anything I could imagine. I want to call out one of the staff, Domingo for being the best ever! He was very attentive, friendly, and even suggested and made us to try mixing the original sauce and honey. I'm sooo glad he recommended that, because the extra sweetness balanced out the chicken tender flavor really well. Going forward, I will be doing that now. So delicious, I highly recomme... read more

I was craving some Fried Chicken Sandwiches and decided to stop by here since I was in the area. I ordered with the cashier and the food came out pretty quickly! I really liked the interior of the place; it has like a downtown-city vibe with graffiti art and lights. I got the 2 Sliders with fries and was extremely disappointed after eating it. The chicken was really salty and the fries were so soggy. I did like the sauce however and the crispiness of the chicken, but I've had way better chicken sandwiches at other places... read more

Hand down the best chicken tenders for a quick eat joints. I love me a good chicken tender. Before trying Dave's my favorite was from Raising Kanes but I think Dave's hot is my new favorite. I always get the sandwich and tender combo. I like to get a side of Mac and cheese and put it in my sandwich. Yes its super fatty but it's so good so don't know it till you try it! For the spice level be careful because when I ordered medium hot it definitely had a nice kick. I also tried their reaper which is the hottest one on the me... read more

Business response:

I wanted to grab a quick lunch and decided to finally try the new Dave's Hot Chicken in the Rivermark Plaza. The waiter who took my order was super nice and gave me a few suggestions since it was my first time here. I ended up ordering the #4, which is one slider with fries. It was prepared super quickly and the same waiter came over and mixed their signature sauce with a honey packet and told me it was a really popular combination to try with the fries- and he was so right! The slider was really good, packed with flavor, ... read more

Business response:

I can literally taste it as you describe it! YUM! So glad you loved it!

Came on a weekend lunch time at around 11:30 am with some coworkers to avoid the lunch rush. The interior is nice and has a street style design on the walls. The tables and everything was really clean. I ordered Dave's #4, which is one slider with fries for $9.99. I added cheese for an additional $0.69. For the slider, I got it with medium spice. I think I have a decent spice tolerance so I would get spicy or maybe even extra spicy next time. We waited about 5 minutes after ordering to get the food. The staff was friendly a... read more

It sounds like you had a great time and great meal! We so glad you loved it and we're so glad that you tried the honey and loved it! We hope you come back again soon!
