This was our first and most likely our last visit to Dave's HC...So the place has a fair amount of parking although they could use a sign on Jefferson road pointing to the side street entrance, we missed the turn the first time and had to back track and uturn our way back...The building has very cool spray painted walls that looked like they were tagged by a graffity artist and very tall ceilings also spray painted to look like the universe or outter space...Next, onto the menu...Well our first impression was that they want ... read more

Finally got to check out the new Dave's Hot Chicken location in Henrietta. We ordered Dave's #1- 2 Tenders w/fries meal with medium hotness. We also got a side of honey to add to the tenders. The tenders were super crispy and flavorful. They were a little too spicy for me- but I'll get the mild tenders next time. We went through the drive- thru- service was fast. The meals were $13/each. Not too pricey. I will def be back. Next time you're in the area- def check em out! 

Business response:

Appreciate you checking out the new spot, Tiffanie! Medium can definitely bring the heat, but Mild should be a better fit next time. Solid move adding honey—hope to see you back soon!

Good food, you better like seasoning down to the fries! The sauce is so tasty and if you don't really like spicy, go medium not mild or anything over lol 

Business response:

Appreciate the tip for the spice newbies! Glad you enjoyed the sliders and sauce—hope you’ll be back for more!

Pretty good chicken, cool wall art, and pretty good service. I got to try a bit of the mild spicy chicken, kale slaw, Mac and cheese, fries, HI-C orange slush and of course Dave's sauce. The chicken was delicious and very tender, by far the star of the show. The fries were very salty, and not at all spicy like I hoped. Mac and cheese with Dave's sauce was pretty good! 

Business response:

Thanks for the detailed review! Glad you loved the chicken and Dave’s sauce—appreciate your note on the fries too. Hope to see you back for another round!

So my friend and I decided to try this place out and we really enjoyed our time here, the chicken was well done, and the fries where sweet and delicious, their sauce was also really good. The servers were really sweet and welcoming, and the ambience was very fun and colorful would definitely come back! 

Business response:

Thanks for the awesome review, Massimo! We're so glad to hear you and your friend enjoyed the chicken, fries, and sauce! It's great to know that the service and ambiance made your experience even better. We can't wait to have you back for another delicious meal!
