The food was fresh and delicious. I like the option to dine outside while enjoy the sunlight The service is a little slow due to it being a new restaurant so it's to be expected. Best thing to do is order online and pick it up at the window.

YUMMM!!! So excited it's finally open! Was nervous about going at noon, but the employees were handling the line and crowd well. Chicken sliders are a decent size for the price, chicken tenders are big. I thought 'hot' was going to be too much, but I think I can go 'extra hot' next time. Will definitely be back!

I took one for the team today and tried Dave's Hot Chicken on Woodruff Rd. There was a line outside the door, but the weather was pleasant, so we waited it out. The line moved at a reasonable pace. Inside and above the counter is a menu. The specialty is chicken and that's the only options you'll have. It's a matter of how much Chicken and how hot. The heat rating goes from "no spice" to "extreme" which requires the customer to sigh a waiver. I'm eating nothing that requires a waiver! Settled on the Medium spice level. T... read more

We have been waiting for a casual hot chicken place to open in Greenville and I'm so glad it was Dave's Hot Chicken! I've had Dave's in California before, so I was excited to have one close by. It had been a while since I've had it last, so it was like trying them for the first time again. The chicken was just what I wanted! Crispy and hot. My boyfriend and I went opening day, so there was a line outside, but the workers were accommodating and made sure everyone was ok and gave out water cups. The line went by fast and we o... read more

Listen, I ordered a "Dave's #1" in-store at 4:33PM and didn't get my food until 4:58PM. There were 2 people in front of me who were already sitting with their beepers and waiting. Sadly, They got their orders the same time as me. During this 25 minute period, they were pushing out orders to 6-7 different people who must have ordered online because they came in, gave a name and boom their order was in-hand instantly. So the priority was not to the in-store customers but to the online orders. Which to me, is trash servi... read more

Overpriced chicken. Although the tenders are larger I still believe it's a little overpriced and it was very bland. The lady at the counter couldn't care less either. I'd choose the Zaxbys that is next to this place if you're looking for chicken.

I rarely leave reviews, good or bad, but my experience at Dave's Hot Chicken today was so disappointing that I had to speak up. At 1pm on 7/26/25, we stopped for lunch. It was our first (and definitely last) visit. I ordered (3) two-piece tender meals. One with no spice for my daughter, another mild for my son, and a hot spice for myself. When we sat down, my chicken (hot) looked the same dark red as my son's mild but it was our first time and we just started eating. His chicken was incredibly spicy--clearly not what we ord... read more

I'm not someone who usually leaves negative reviews, but I feel like this one needs to be said. We went to Dave's Hot Chicken and spent $69 for four people. The food just didn't live up to the price. The chicken was dry, bland, and the seasoning tasted like straight-up cayenne pepper and no depth of flavor at all. Beyond the food, the experience inside the restaurant was honestly frustrating. The ice machine kept dumping ice on the floor every time someone used it, which caused a huge puddle that staff kept trying to mop u... read more
