Food served cold. Took about half an hour. Asked for Dave's sauce and it was covered in a suspicious white substance. I was yelled at when I asked for my order. The food didn't taste good and they had the audacity to ask for a tip. (There was no "no tip" option)

I have been a loyal customer of Dave's Hot Chicken since the past year. However my visit on March 15th, 2025 to the location in Holly Springs, NC left me extremely frustrated. I had pre-ordered my sliders before I left home through the app and arrived in time to pickup my order. I was told that my order would take at least 30-40 more minutes. This is after already placing the order 30 minutes back. I was in a hurry, so I asked the cashier to refund me my money. I was just handed a receipt of $0 saying the money will be cred... read more

Food was seasoned with no flavor. Sauce tasted like straight mayo. Then the register lady said there was no more strawberry lemonade slush when it was right in front of my face. The straws are also very long.

Dave's hot chicken was ok to me. I got mild chicken and it had NO seasoning. The sauce that was on it helped but whenever I ate the chicken alone it was blah

Nasty chicken, customer service was horrendous. Made by white folks don't know how to cook chicken or even fries half cooked with old grease. Don't buy from here. I have to order My Way food because i am still hungry.

Price way too high for mediocre food. Boxed mac and cheese. No sauce other than ketchup or Dave's sauce. One size for drinks. Half the drinks didn't work. Only coke and Diet Coke for bottled options. Chicken was seasoned after it was cooked. Fries have pickles on em. Just don't go

Let's kick it off with, Instagram- what you see is NOTTTTT what you get Social media always makes these places look phenomenal, for me it was a must try, so we drove an hour to come check this Dave's Hot Chicken out. It became evident pretty quickly we weren't going to have the experience we had hoped for. Let's start with the place itself: Graffiti, street art covers the walls you can tell they are trying to make it a cool little spot. It's relatively small but they pack a lot of seating in so we didn't have a hard tim... read more

This was our 2nd (and final) visit to this location. The Charlotte location is great, so there seems to be a management/ownership issue here. The first visit was shortly after they opened the location and while the food was good, the restaurant was dirty and my partner dealt with mild food poisoning symptoms afterwards. Last night, the dining room was once again dirty but this time, the portions were noticeably smaller and the food was dry/overcooked. We ended up getting more food from the Greek restaurant next door. But hey... read more
