This is my 2nd visit to a Dave's and the experience was similar both times. First off, the food tastes great. A couple sliders and fries with a 20oz beverage fills you up. The chicken is crispy on the edges and juicy inside and for me the medium sauce hits the spot with a lot of flavor and a good mild heat. The downside and the reason for the ding on the stars... #1 is the speed of delivery. On a Sunday night I walked in the door and directly to the counter with no line and my receipt says I ordered at 8:37 with my food gi... read more

Went for the first time the other day & it was not busy at all around 2pm. Had a 6-minute wait after ordering. The only issue that was the music was so loud I could barely hear the guy taking my order. I had got the mild 2 tenders which was sweet but spicy. The guy at the front did help and was such a sweetheart, he was very informative about what sauces they have. I wish they could let you dry the flavors ahead of ordering to know which one is better or even a wet sauce instead of all of it being a dry rub. I must say the... read more

Business response:

Appreciate you giving us a try, Taylor! Glad the service and fries were on point, but we hear you on the music and the flavor not being your thing. We stick with our signature spice rub instead of wet sauces, but we get that everyone has their own taste. Thanks for the honest feedback!

This just opened up the street from me. I had the chicken slider with fries. Everything was seasoned so well and the one slider was plenty for lunch! Will be back again! 

Business response:

**Response to Lisa Y.:** Love to hear that, Lisa! A slider and fries definitely make for a solid lunch. Glad you enjoyed the seasoning—can’t wait to have you back for more!

This is my new spot now. I feel like I am at Good Burger! It's all about the sauce. The staff are very friendly and efficient as well. 

Business response:

Love the Good Burger vibes! Our sauce game is strong, and we’re stoked to be your new spot. See you next time!

I recently stopped in to try this new spot in the white oak town center. It was not the best. I got a 10 piece with fries, and it came with pickles and bread. The medium had a nasty flavor , but the fries and pickles were ok. The place was fairly clean. And the service was fast! Everyone was friendly. Didn't enjoy my food. 

Business response:

Appreciate you giving us a shot! Bummed to hear the medium flavor wasn’t for you, but we’re glad the service and fries hit the mark.

Portions are big and seasoning is perfect. I enjoyed both hot and medium. I ordered once for pickup and at the restaurant. 

Business response:

Glad you’re feeling the portions and seasoning! Whether it’s pickup or dine-in, we’re here for your next spicy fix.

The only downsides to Dave's hot chicken is the wait is long if you order dine in and the food gives me heart burn lol Otherwise I think it's a great chicken joint to add to the chicken sandwich economy around here. Some days I prefer basic chix sandwiches (chick fil a) some days prefer Nashville style (hangry joes) when I want something seasoned over the top, I come here. I like how everything is seasoned like crazy (it's called flavor yall) the fries are seasoned as well which makes them great on their own without the s... read more

Business response:

We hear you on the wait! Happy you’re loving the seasoning and spice levels—hope the heartburn’s worth it!

For one thing, I'm a little upset that it took so long for me to try this place. They were trending all over Tik Tok with people raving over the chicken and various customizations. So of course I had to try. You mean that levels of spice actually match the description? The medium is actually a medium? I've been waiting for this. The chicken is always perfectly cooked, juicy, and hot. The buns are soft and complement the meal just the way they're supposed to. I enjoy slaw and pickles, and that you can easily remove them ... read more

Business response:

Appreciate the detailed review! Glad our spice levels meet the hype, and stoked the cauliflower bites impressed. We’ll work on keeping those fries consistent!

Visited this location and the customer service was absolutely fantastic. I was greeted by a member of staff upon arrival. The store was clean and organized. I ordered the 1 tender, 1 slider and fries combo with regular drink on the side. The chicken was crispy, well cooked and flavorful-i ordered extra hot and it was exactly that. Absolutely love the Dave's sauce which paired well with the meal. Cant wait to come back and try more food options. 

Business response:

Love to hear it! Extra hot and extra flavorful—just how we like it. Can’t wait to have you back for more!
