About this business

TO LIVE AND FRY IN L.A. In 2017, four childhood friends came up with a simple concept — take Nashville Hot Chicken and make it better than anyone else in America. With only a couple thousand dollars to their name, they boot-strapped a pop-up concept in a parking lot in East Hollywood serving a simple menu of tenders, sliders, fries, and kale slaw — they created a viral cult following with lines consistently over an hour long.

Coming from California to Utah years ago and not having a Dave's Hot Chicken was rough. We were ecstatic when we found out they were opening Utah's first location in Orem! A super cool thing they do is if you sign up for their rewards program on the app, you get a free drink. The service was amazing, the staff were happy to be there and checked in on us and our experience. The restaurant was clean and well kept. There was even a DJ for opening day, and he was playing absolute bops. The food was just as good as I remember. Th... read more

I went to the grand opening at Dave's Hot Chicken in Orem! We ordered one medium spice slider, two mild spice sliders, fries, kale slaw and a drink for $27. The chicken was crispy and flavorful, the sides were made fresh and tasted great. I'd recommend adding honey and coleslaw to the sliders. Even at their grand opening the time from ordering to getting food was about 10 minutes. They were out of mac n cheese, but it's understandable with them being slammed. Highly recommend!

This place is popping!!! Even though there was a line out the door, it went fast and was able to place order within minutes of getting there. Great friendly cashiers and amazing ambiance. The food was out of this world. If you like greatly seasoned and great tasting food... then this is the place to be at! Excited to have a Dave's in Utah!!!!!

The soft opening night was so good, not so busy and absolutely amazing chicken.. Damn this place really lives up to the hype. Delicious juicy hot chicken with excellent flavor and such good dill pickles. I had the medium heat with a tender slider and fries and it was a ton of food. Staff was also very friendly, atmosphere was nice and I got my food quickly (to go order). Will definitely be back. 5/5

the chicken looked a bit off like it had come from a zombie chicken, along with it being dry. To add on to my experience here, the toast was so soggy that it felt like it was drenched and left in a hurricane before being served. not the best experience in my opinion. In all, this felt like I was in a sadder version of canes.

the food was great but the customer service was eh, it just took way to long for my food to get out to me and way too long for someone to greet me.

It was my first time going, and I got the chicken slider and fries. The chicken was a bit burnt so it was dry. However, I loved that they give the Dave's sauce and honey on the side for me to add on to my sandwich. I've always loved everything with a LOT of sauce so I enjoyed that and thought the sauce and the honey went really well with the spicy chicken. I was disappointed by the fries. The portion was very small and not worth $4. They were crispy but perhaps too crispy -- I prefer the inside to be soft. Since I wasn't ... read more

Cold fries, combo doesn't come with a drink, small dipping sauce for two pieces of chicken. I wanted to like it, but honestly not worth the amount you pay.

Don't get the spicy chicken Instead of using different, spicier, ingredients if you make it spicier it just equals more seasoning not spicier seasoning and sense that's their whole thing it kinda sucks but if you want good chicken jus go to raising kanes
