Dave's Hot Chicken opened this year in River North and it is the perfect addition! The sliders are so good paired with the Mac & cheese and fries as a side. I love that their hot is actually pretty spicy and their sauce is delicious. Love the milkshakes too! Staff was super friendly and very laid back ambiance. 

Business response:

Love hearing that our River North spot is hitting the mark! Glad you’re a fan of the spice, sauce, and shakes—sounds like you’ve got the perfect combo down. Hope to see you back for more soon!

Brittney was incredible. My fiancée can't read very well & Brittney walked us through all the options (since we were Dave's Hot Chicken virgins). I went the #3 and you should too. I'm looking forward to having these kind people in our neighborhood... welcome to River North, Dave. 

Business response:

Thanks, Trey! We’re so glad Brittney made your first visit such a great experience. The #3 is a solid choice—welcome to the Dave’s family! We’re excited to be part of the River North community and can’t wait to see you both again!

Best chicken sandwich I've ever had! Cashier was very polite and made sure I knew what all my options were. Restaurant was clean and bright and they had Stevie Ray Vaughan playing on the speakers. Looking forward to coming back soon!

They were so friendly and the food was delicious. I walked in and was greeted by 3 different employees who had no idea that anyone else had greeted me. I ordered online, someone quickly grabbed my order. While that person was getting my food, someone else asked if I had been helped. This all happened in under 2 minutes in the restaurant. I was skeptical that the 2 chicken finger and fry meal would be enough but the fingers are huge. I can handle heat pretty well- the hot was perfect but the extra hot was great too.
