Legit hot chicken for a chain. It was a little slow, but expected during a lunch rush, but the chicken as worth the wait. New spot clean and fresh and the staff was actually very engaged and did a great job (rare in Utah). I'm not a fun of the kale slaw, but still pretty good in the slider. I'd have to say a little pricey, but compared to the SLC independent Nashville hot chicken place, it was a better price and value. And they didn't auto top you!!! (Sorry PB... I don't like that you do this to customers). I'll be back to ... read more

We'd heard a lot about DHC and it was yummy, but not as great as I expected. It's nice you can choose your heat level, and they have a very simple menu to choose from. Overall good food, but nothing amazing.

We came in not realizing that it was 5 mins before close. noah was insanely nice, acted like it was no problem at all, and the kitchen whipped us up a delicious slider, fries, and chocolate shake. 10/10 experience and I'm literally planning on coming here tomorrow, mostly because we love noah and hope to see him again.

Awwww go Noah! Thanks for sharing Connor, we are so glad that you loved us!

The best chicken sandwich in town! Service was friendly. Seemed well staffed, which is hard to come by these days. Soft buns and chicken was tender. Great flavor, maybe a little heavy on the cumin if you don't like that flavor. I don't usually like crinkle cut fries but these were excellent. The Mac n cheese was just ok. Nothing special. It's the real wet kind, almost soupy. Milk shake was good, but it's thin. I got used to extra thick I guess. The dipping sauce was very good, and I think should come standard on the slider.... read more

We moved from Nashville 6 years ago and have missed its famous hot chicken. We tried Dave's today, and gave it two thumbs up! I ordered the slider meal; don't let the term "slider" throw you though. This is a full size sandwich! The chicken is to die for, and there's a nice sauce and kale slaw and crisp dill pickles packed inside a toasted bun. The krinkle cut fries were crisp and seasoned, adding a great complement to the sandwich. Finding a hot chicken place that compares to Nashville hot chicken has made my day!

Looks delicious! Thank you for the photo and the awesome review!

TLDR: average chicken shop, gets the job done. 3 stars due to this being average and acceptable but nothing exceptional or above and beyond The location is in a great spot close to the mall and anything else in the area you could want. The selection is pretty basic with their choices, but not like you need much more in a place that serves fried chicken. I got the mild chicken sandwich and a hot tender, the hot had some kick to it and the mild was great for a quick bite. Worth it to visit once and see what the hype was ab... read more

This place is totally happening and pretty busy, but they get the orders out fast too. The seating is limited but they have inside and outside seating. The staff are very friendly and happy to be there. I know the place is new but it would be cool if they could inform better about the hot levels. The slider was amazing and I highly recommend you add the cheese to it. The cheese fries are also pretty good but the regular fries are great if you don't want to pay extra. The tender was also good but it needs like ranch or so... read more

We were in the area and decided to check out the hype! Off the gate, this place is very fun & urban. It reminded me of the colorful gateway wall. The service was great and staff was very friendly! Service was verrry quick even with them being a full house! The food was great! The chicken was juicy, the fries were crispy & seasoned and the Mac & Cheese was cheesy and creamy! One of the best I've had when it comes to restaurants. The food was pretty good, it mildly fell short when it came to spice. We got the medium spice as... read more
