Got hungry after getting my nails done & saw this place! I was intrigued by the smell of fried chicken! Walked in, was offered help deciding & since it was my first time I was curious about the spice levels. I chose the spiciest & was recommended to not I went one down & lord I'm glad the cashier advised me that. It was so spicy I couldn't finish. The fires are krinkle cut goodness & I appreciate the bread to stop the spice! Dill pickle was a nice addition!

I tried Dave's in Vegas and didn't really like it. Since I saw this was opening up, I wanted to give it a try. I really like this location! I do have to say I am more of a fries person than a sandwich person but I equally enjoyed both! Chicken was crispy and juicy, the other contents in the sandwich wasn't overpowering, and the fries were crispy and well seasoned. For the price of just a slider, it is not that bad.

Delicious, bang-for-your-buck food. I ordered online, which was super easy and quick to pick up. The mild spice level does not taste/feel spicy, but it made my nose run; I'm going to try a level higher next time. The piece of chicken on my sandwich was huge and very moist. The fries were a tiny bit soggy (I got takeout), but they were still very good. The chocolate milkshake was just okay, but it was only $5 (for a small), so I can't complain too much.

Decent fried chicken, they def have their branding down i can see why the business is expanding, that said the food is just ok. I really don't get the hype surrounding the pink style dipping sauces that they have here and many many many burger places. It is literally just ketchup mixed with mayo and a bit of spice probably paprika and chili powder. Anyway with the pricing scheme here i will probably not go back. 

Business response:

We'd really love a second chance to make this right. If you have a few extra seconds, would you mind connecting with us at https://tellusdirect.com/dhc? -Julie
