The service at this location was good. We were able to get our food in a short amount of time. The food itself was flavorful and the fries were crispy. One star knocked down because the medium chicken sandwiches we ordered were not spicy at all. We expected them to be a little spicy. Next time we will be ordering the hot spice level to see if it is any spicier. Otherwise, a great experience our first time

Is this a five star restaurant? No. Did I have a five star experience? Yes! I only got crinkle fries because I cannot pass them up and I needed a fun snack since I was having a bad day. These were freshly cooked, perfectly done, and well seasoned. The best part was the amazing cashier. He was so nice, efficient, and engaged! I think his name was Dani L if anyone from Dave's is reading this. Also, the place was very clean and had a fun vibe.

This is a great location, food is served fresh. With fast food chain you want consistency which is what you get here. My favorite is two sliders and a Diet Coke. Service is great and in a good location (near target)

My husband and I did a head-to-head comparison with Crimson Coward. We both preferred Dave's Hot Chicken for it's flavorful chicken in the sandwich slider. The chicken patty was thicker, seasoned well, and more moist/tender. I overall just liked how the sandwich was prepared in terms of toppings and sauce. The fries were also sooooo good and beat CC by a landslide. They were crispy and seasoned well. We did not like the chicken tender so much - the seasoning seemed grainy (which could have also been the case with the sandwic... read more

I have been wanting to try them since i saw my coworker ate them a few days ago. Now my whole fambam went here tonight and it was amazing. First of all they don't mess around with their spices, I chose the HOT version instead of the extra hot or reaper. I once heard someone said that you can't get the spiciest one on the menu on your first try. You gotta ease up to it. Second their prices are affordable. Third i like how the whole restaurant is decorated very colorful. It was busy when we came so many people eating and enj... read more

Business response:

Love the strategy—easing up to the spice is the way to go! Glad you and the whole fambam had an amazing time. Appreciate the detailed review, and hope to see you back for more soon!

We ordered the 2 tender meal (medium) with an extra tender (mild). When you look at the menu, it may seem a bit expensive for a meal, but the tenders are big! The medium flavor did have more kick than the mild, but it was manageable and not mouth watering spicy. The chicken is well seasoned on the outside, but the seasoning is more dry and peppery, while the inside is more white and juicy. The service was pretty quick and they do give you a buzzer for when your food is ready. They have some frozen slushee drinks that you c... read more

Business response:

Thanks for the detailed review, Carmen! We’re glad you enjoyed the juicy chicken and found the spice levels manageable. It’s great to hear the service was quick and you liked the portion sizes. We appreciate your feedback on the ranch dressing—something we’ll keep in mind. Hope to see you back for more tenders and slushies soon!

Dave's Hot Chicken Summary: new hot chicken spot (these seem to be popping up all over the Columbia area) in the Columbia Crossing shopping center. It offers a fast-food style dining experience with a straightforward menu of fried hot chicken options and sides. Columbia residents will be able to tell you that the area has had a bit of an influx of hot chicken dining spots in the last couple of years (which I'm not opposed to). They all start to feel pretty similar, but I was pleasantly surprised with Dave's Hot Chicken. ... read more

Business response:
