I'm picky about my chicken sandwiches. Somehow they have been able to season the chicken just so the chicken is tender and moist and with each bite it is just heavenly. The service is OK. The ambience is relaxed casual. The parking lot can be a little tricky. The disabled parking is very close to the exit for the drive-through so that can be problematic. a lot of teenagers get lunch there so there's a lot of coming and going. It's busy. I love the chicken slider. It has some kale coleslaw and some pickles on it and some... read more

The restaurant looks new and was pretty clean. The guy at the counter was friendly. The chicken was pretty tasty, but I was hoping for more of a wet sauce as opposed to dry seasoning on the tenders. The "Dave's" sauce is good...but I don't know what these Ohio chicken joints won't serve BBQ or ranch. The pickles are great!

Overall, the chicken sandwich was really good. Nothing special about the chicken tender, little bit on the dry side. My order was made incorrectly, which did not bother me it happens. What bothered me was after i politely asked for it to be corrected, i received a box that was covered in sauce, spice, and grease. I asked for a napkin and had to clean the box in front of the employee. Customer service was terrible. I did not feel welcomed and it seemed like the employees did not care about their job and didn't want to be ther... read more

Drive thru service super, super slow. Waited over 20 minutes for single order. Waited so long my milkshake turned to soup. Food was excellent!

If you like Dave's Hot Chicken, this is a great restaurant. The staff was well trained. The food came out quick, accurate, and hot. The store was clean and well-stocked. If you don't know this restaurant and like chicken fingers, it's worth trying. This is especially true if you like spicy chicken. Our favorite part was the fries. They had a great seasoning on them. Second was the sauce- it was like a mix of mayonnaise and ketchup. I got a 'hot' slider. I thought the flavor was great and loved it. I bought 2, but probabl... read more

Stopped into the new location. First visit to Dave's Hot Chicken. Since they just opened this location 2 days prior we knew it would be busy. It was but we stayed and waited. The new employees were nice and obviously still learning the menu and registers. They were very friendly and took our order and answered all our questions about the menu. We waited a few minutes for our food but everything came out hot and right. The sandwiches were yummy! Chicken was nice I got the lite mild. Hardly any spice might move up next time.... read more

Could barely understand the voice at the drive-through ordered a sandwich that the sauce level was spicy, as ordered. The actual chicken was barely warm and tough. Also, the curbs through their drive-through are almost impossible to get by without damaging your tires.
