I love chicken so hot you could cook an egg on it just as much as the next guy, so when I found out that a place called Dave's Hot Chicken was located within driving distance from anywhere, I buckled in and headed out. Coming down off my Chicago Dog High™, I wasn't sure I could stuff as much chicken as I wanted to inside of me. But, like Kenny Rogers, I'm a gambler. Pulling up to this chicken place, the exterior was wild and wacky, like a Nickelodeon throw back. I'm a 90s kid, so I got that reference. There was plenty of s... read more

Came here the other day for a quick dinner and I was pleasantly surprised! Normally not a huge fan of hot chicken but this place was great!! There are a few different spice levels to choose from. I ended up getting the tender and sandwich combo with fries which was plenty of food. Honestly a good deal - $14ish dollars for basically two entrees and fries. I also got the spicy BBQ sauce on the side which I really enjoyed. The servers were very friendly and we didn't have to wait too long for our food. The inside is nice - p... read more

After consistently passing this place after a workout, finally had an opportunity to check the place out. Very clean patio and I love the art/graffiti inside. Very friendly customer service and helped me pick what I wanted to eat. I believe the chicken is flavorful and juicy but, I don't think it is as good as everybody's hyping up to be. I think the chicken is spicy but not seasoned if that makes sense? I'm not a sauce person so I didn't eat the special sauce but it was ok chicken experience.

We tried Dave's Hot Chicken for a work meeting and it did not disappoint! I was the one that suggested it and at first, I was even a little suspicious because I couldn't picture everyone getting a Chicken Sandwich for a work meeting BUT they had the Mini Sliders and those were ! Highly recommend. With the fries and honey packets. It was a bit pricey but all worth it and I'm glad we tried it. It was actually everyone in my office first time trying Dave's Hot Chicken and we will be back soon. I really want to try their full sa... read more

First time to Dave's Hot Chicken today. Overall the experience was pretty standard. As for the food it was decent. I personally think the chicken and fries were much better than anything Canes has to offer. I didn't like the Dave sauce but the packs of honey they offer were a nice touch. The chicken tenders and sliders were large in size so don't think you need more than normal. The food will definitely fill you up. As for the seasonings or spice level. The medium was good. Not overly spicy. I recommend this place.
