The chicken is very good and it's not just the spice. I imagine the no spice would be good as well although we order medium. The employees are very friendly and are willing to answer any questions questions 

Business response:

Appreciate the love for our chicken and team! Medium is a solid choice, but if you ever try the no spice, let us know how it stacks up. Hope to see you again soon!

Honestly, I'm torn with this review. As far as service, I ordered on the app fairly late in the night and it was ready in less than 10 mins for pickup. Very smooth ordering process. When they say hot, it is definitely hot; they're not playing around. I'm the person who usually orders something spicy in any restaurant and for the most part I usually get the hottest spice level in most foods. However, this is a step above. Which, for those who want painfully spicy, this might hit the spot (they actually have a waiver if you ... read more

Went out to Dave's Hot Chicken last night for our date night. It just opened recently and we were excited to try something new in town. We were not disappointed. It was a decent wait to order, they are crazy busy right now but it was worth the wait. The food didn't take long once we ordered. We took it to go. We ordered a #1 two sliders mild and fries and a #4 1 slider medium with fries. The chicken has a dry seasoning on it which was a nice surprise most places if not all in the area do sauces. It's definitely something new... read more

Business response:

Love the breakdown of your visit! Sounds like you really got the full experience, and we’re glad you enjoyed the flavors. Looking forward to having you back for round two!

This was a total bummer. I had heard really good things about this place and was really excited to try it. I ordered the slider and tender meal with fries. I ordered light-mild. It was probably my fault in assuming I could handle the light mild. It was still too hot to eat. OK, my bad it's not their fault that I ordered wrong, but the bite that I did take was pure seasoning. My husband got the bites, which actually seemed less spicy than the tender, so I tried that. Two bites in and that was a mistake as well. OK well... read more

The chicken was very good but it was pretty frustrating to sit there for 32 minutes while orders places after mine were served. Then the employee didn't acknowledge the long wait.. not how I wanted the experience to go. 

Business response:
