I wasn't expecting much cause it's fast food, but I was pleasantly surprised. The food came out fast. The order was correct. The portions were bigger than I expected. The slider was the size of a full size sandwich. About the same size as a Chic-Fil-a sandwich. I got the Hot and my wife got the extra hot. The heat was about as much as I could handle, but not too hot. They give you a good amount of sliced pickles and the fries were seasoned well. My only complaint is drinks are not included with the combo meal. You have to ... read more

I have been looking forward to trying this new restaurant on my way South. I love spicy chicken and this did not disappoint!! The staff was amazingly helpful, the tables and bathroom were super clean and the wait was well worth it. I will be stopping on my way back North next month!

Really good I would recommend extra hot or reaper for extreme spice lovers. The service is really good employees are very nice. Even though the place is busy it's nice if you can stand all the talking 

Business response:

It was a long line but expected on grand opening. I was met by a gentleman I believe may be Dave. He's very polite and welcoming. The staff is very friendly and the chicken was very good. Definitely hot and I love spicy foods. Worth trying out and I'll definitely return in the near future. Would definitely recommend Dave's. It's also a nice restaurant, love the graffiti painting as well.

I will start by saying the strawberry milkshake was good but the chicken is inedible. There is so much salt on the rub that i could not finish. I had to take a drink with every bite. I think i got enough sodium intake for a week and only ate about half the sandwich. Also the cheese fries were more cheese than fries. I wont be eating there again. 

Business response:

Sorry to hear the chicken was too salty for you, Angela. We aim for bold seasoning, but it shouldn’t be overpowering. Glad you enjoyed the strawberry milkshake, at least! Appreciate the feedback, and we’ll keep working to get the balance just right.

The chicken is so overly seasoned. It is a thick moist rub that just falls off the chicken and it overpowers the meat. It's just a stick of wet seasoning. Too much. Over priced. Milkshakes are just milk. Nothing cold about it. 

Business response:

We’re sorry to hear the seasoning and milkshake didn’t meet your expectations. Your feedback is valuable, and we’ll share it with the team as we work to improve the overall experience. Thank you for sharing your thoughts.

Here's the thing, the first 3 times I had Dave's I would rate it 4 or 5 stars. Their food is pretty tasty. But oh boy, this last time was a journey of pain. The second tender tasted a little off...but I ate it any way. That was probably top ten biggest mistakes of my life, and I am a man that got his nipples pierced on a dare. What happened next was 70 hours of the worst food poisoning that I had ever gotten. As a matter of fact I am certain that I had never experienced food poisoning before because nothing has ever came... read more
