Dave's Hot Chicken is a great choice for fast food with home style quality. The prices were a little higher like a restaurant, but the portions and the flavor make it worth every cent. We tried the sliders, the tenders, the shake, and my son had the Mac and cheese. They even had vegetarian options on the menue with cauliflower sliders. The fries were delicious and well seasoned. The chicken was tender and flavorful. The shake was perfect, and the Mac&cheese satisfied my picky little eater who is very particular about his Ma... read more

Menu was simple and straight forward. Service was decent- the chicken- It was fried well and the fries were good, but the chicken was not flavorful hot- it simply had an overpowering pure cayenne pepper hot. The moment I opened the box it was pure cayenne pepper. There were mild, medium, hot , extra hot, etc. I got the mild and my husband got the hot. His was unbearable. And we love spicy food because again- it was not a flavorful Buffalo style hot it was just red pepper hot. Maybe I'm just not familiar with this style but ... read more

The restaurant itself and the staff seemed nice. Restaurant was clean. Food is ok but extremely salty, and I'm not sure why. There are other spicy chicken sandwich places nearby like PDQ or Mad Chicken and the food is not as salty at those places.

Tried Dave's Hot Chicken for the first time while I was in Toronto. I went to school at USF, but I do not live local. I had messaged one of my classmates about how good the food was up in Toronto, and they pointed out that there was a location in Tampa. So naturally, after class one day I had to look it up and sure enough it was just down the street. I always ordered takeout before I head home after classes. I usually get either the two tenders or the slider and tender meal. I feel medium is a good happy place for me, but th... read more

It's hard for me to find fried chicken that I really like. But my bae insisted I'd try this spot and boy did it blow me out of the water. Loved EVERYTHING and I'm still thinking of their mac. Only regret I have is ordering the medium spice level. Got to try their reaper and would either go for that or the Extra Hot next time. Manager was also a cool dude and him and my love chatted for a bit (he's more social than I am LOL) The interior also has a cool design and if it were closer to me I'd swing by more often for a slide... read more

Great chicken every time! Consistently good food is the key to success. Never have to wait long for great chicken. Some cushion seating in the back but hard metal chairs everywhere else for those that need to know.

If you're a Hot Head, then you must try this place. A friend told me about it because he knows I love hot stuff. It was awesome. The reaper chicken sandwich was to die for. It's an hour away from where I live and was worth the drive. I was impressed with the texture and taste of the chicken also. Price wasn't bad either. If you like hot stuff this is a must. They have regular flavors also for the weak ones that go there with you. Haha.
