The food is delicious, fast service and the restaurant is pretty clean. The sliders are the size of a regular chicken sandwich so unless you are sharing I recommend only one slider. The chicken seasoning is a dry rub and the chicken is moist, not dry. Staff is super friendly! 

Business response:

Appreciate the review, Chanda! Sounds like you got the full experience—great food, quick service, and a clean spot to enjoy it. Solid tip on the slider size too! Hope to see you back for another round.

The ONLY reason I'm giving 5 stars is for Sam. Sam was the kindest, sweetest, employee I have ever encountered. He was so helpful and genuinely AWESOME at his job! He knew the menu well and made sure I could order something appropriately for my little girl with acid reflux. This was our first time visiting, so I wasn't sure what to expect. The food however-- I'll give 2 stars, generously. The chicken wasn't warmed, and it took A LONG time to get out. We waited a long time to finally get our meal, and mine was very sloppy. ... read more

Business response:

Big shoutout to Sam—sounds like he really made an impact! We’re lucky to have him on the team. Sorry to hear the food didn’t live up to expectations, though. Long waits and a messy meal aren’t what we’re going for. If you’d like to share more, we’re happy to listen at dhcfeedback.com.

We ordered three meals online and picked them up with no problems. The order was correct. The service was friendly. When the family gets chicken takeout, I either have to settle for fries, order from another restaurant, or just eat at home since I'm a vegetarian. Thought I'd give the Not Chicken sandwich a try since I love cauliflower. Oh, my, it was sooooo good! Please keep it on the menu and I promise we'll eat there more often. Thanks for thinking outside the box for a meat alternative item. Much appreciated! 

Business response:

So glad you loved the Not Chicken sandwich, Rennie! We know options can be limited, so it’s great to hear our cauliflower hit the spot. Unfortunately, it’s no longer on the menu, but we appreciate the love and will keep the feedback in mind for the future!

First visit, tester run...Best customer service; great chicken & fries. Chicken is fried perfectly, crunchy on the outside and juicy on the inside. I tried the Medium Level of spicy and it was more flavorful then anything. I'll have to go up a notch or two for a real kick. Definitely going to return to try all their other sides. Service was fairly quick, food was good and hot. They were not that busy for a lunch hour, but I bet their business picks up once word gets around. Love the atmosphere and bright graffiti on ... read more

Love this, Momma Nita! Sounds like you had a solid first visit, and we can’t wait for you to work your way up the spice levels. Appreciate you shouting out the vibes, too—we’ll be ready for you next time!
