Line out the door still! So thinking should be good...experience overall was there. Line moved fast, staff friendly, but lil tired from the traffic coming in the door. Good concept, Nashville "style" for sure. But, if you don't like gristle...may not be for you. Fries, good. Slaw, bland, but think was made for having on sandwich. Not favorite, mixed reviews here, do not think I will come to crave.

Huge portions and great spices made for an above expected meal! We have been eyeing the long lines since this location recently opened. Long lines out the door, so it must be good. We tried at 5pm on a Friday night and had about 10 orders in front of us. The food came out very efficiently and fast, with many staff members working the front and back of house. Attention to detail was exceptional, being offered extra Dave's sauce (crack!!), and shown where the condiments are. We ordered a #1, #3 and a #4. The single sider #4 w... read more

My friend highly recommended me this place to try their fried chicken and I am glad I did. After trying it, now I get that why it's always a line extending outside the store. And Dave's hot chicken is equal to my other number 1 fried chicken place in KC metro. (I only eat fried chicken from that place before I tried Dave's since the fried chicken is a cheat meal for me, it has to be super good and worth it). They seems to have only chicken tenders as the chicken option. Food: Amazing seasoning and the technique to secure t... read more

After only one visit I am going to say it. Best fast food chicken you can get in the KC area! Holy cow, I mean chicken! First off, the size of the tenders! When it was a 2 piece tender meal I thought, better add one to be safe....that wasn't necessary. I tried the hot and was honestly happy it wasn't too hot. I'm not too adventurous on spice levels so if you like spicy I would say start at the hot level. The tenders were so juicy and crispy and the flavor was awesome! My wife got a slider and she absolutely loved it. It co... read more

We saw a crazy long line opening day so we came back, anticipating a long wait and boy was it worth it! I had hot and extra hot sliders and they were amazing - mouth watering flavor, good heat, moist, and very generous portions sizes (calling them "sliders" may be deceiving as they are full sandwiches). The kale slaw was also great on the slider and the sauce was an easy win. We had a large order with several adjustments and they nailed the order which is nice. The order was to-go, but we spent plenty of time inside and the ... read more

I'd been waiting for Dave's to open and figured 2 weeks after opening was enough time to clear out the crowds. I arrived today, Sunday, at noon and it was already pretty busy. I ordered 3 #3 meals, medium and they were ready in about 5 minutes. Way faster than I expected. The rub on the chicken was pretty tasty, and medium had some heat but I probably should have ordered hot. The tenders were large and the slider was the size of a regular hamburger bun. Fries were standard. Don't expect to be able to purchase large fountai... read more

Would give an extra star perhaps if not for the really long wait. Way too long for fried chicken sliders/tenders, and fries. Had the hot combo 3. Was pretty hot (kind of sneaky hot). Flavor was good, but unspectacular. Fries looked good and seasoned, but actually were not that flavorful. I would say overall the food was good, not great, and although the portions were nice, it's expensive. I would not go out of your way for it, and if the line is out the door, choose something else..

Dave's?! In KC?! WHOO! I was excited to try this as I've heard about and seen about it so many times. Didn't try the Reaper...so no waiver signed over here hahha. It had just opened so the line was out the door, so it took some time before we were able to go in and order/be seated. I was scared of the spice levels so I just went up to Hot, but I think the spice wasn't unbearable (might try Extra Hot next time). The fries and sauce were AMAZING - the chicken was good too, but also similar to other chicken places here. I go... read more
