So when I found out that Dave's Hot Chicken was coming to my area I got excited because I had been hearing alot about this place and I couldn't wait to try it. First thing I wanted to try the slider on the spicy level with fries and then two extra tenders on reaper. I put the order in to go online using the app and when to pick it up. The young kid working behind the counter gave me my order, which I thought would be 2 or 3 bags not just one, and then i left. Half way home something told me to check and yup I was missing fo... read more

Always delicious. Spice levels a bit inconsistent. Sometimes the hot is not hot enough and some times medium is hot.

Food: Their tenders are very juicy, served on a slice of bread if you didn't order a slider, and dry seasoned with a 7 tier spicy range from no spice all the way to Reaper. The slider bread is fluffy and sweet, almost like Hawaiian bread, and set on the flat top to get a nice light crisp on the inside. Their fries are crispy and perfectly seasoned with alight cajun style seasoning. Their pickles are also very crunchy and fresh, definitely not the low quality, soggy pickles you get at other fast food places. Their fries come ... read more

The Cauli Bites are amazing! I hadn't eaten since this location opened because as much as I like hot chicken sandwiches, I am trying not to eat heavy food. The Cauli bites are perfect.

Been here a couple of times and the food is good and consistent. It's never overcrowded and the food is ready fairly quick. I was going to go for the reaper level hot but they wanted me to sign a waiver so I passed. I think I will go for it next time. I usually get the two sliders and fries. The pickles are always crisp and fresh. Good food and service all the way around.

I mean it was ok so more 3.5 than 4. Chicken was good but decent size with small piece of bread all for a pretty penny. People like this place so maybe I'll try it again? We'll see...not a great review, sorry not sorry -ant

Okay so BOOM! This place snuck up on me in the best way! My family and I were in the plaza and couldn't decide on what to eat and I remembered this new place had just opened up not too long ago! We pulled up and checked it out on yelp first! IYKYK lol Once we decided it was worth the try, my husband went in to order. What started as a to-go order turned into a dine-in, and I'm happy it did! The restaurant is so vibrant, CLEAN and inviting! The staff was professional, kind and extremely helpful with recommendations and ... read more
