My kids and friends have been buzzing about this place on social media, so I decided to check out Dave's Hot Chicken with them, especially after hearing the story of the young entrepreneurs behind it. The restaurant was packed, the staff was friendly and attentive, and the wall art was really cool. The food took a little while to arrive, but it was totally worth the wait since everything was served fresh. We tried the chicken combos, which were clearly designed with their younger crowd in mind. They offer varying levels of ... read more

First off I wanted to say this food knocked my socks off! it was delicious the service was amazing for how busy they were. Only negative is there isn't much seating and it's always packed so good luck on finding a table.

I ordered the Dave's #1: one medium tender, one hot tender. First thing you notice besides the nice location with ample amounts of seating and unique design as well as the service that was surprisingly great, is the price. $14 (after tax) for two tenders and fries feels egregious, but the tenders are HUGE. They're prepared excellently, hot, fresh, perfectly cooked. I wouldn't say the price feels justified, but the portion is solid. Even though the chicken itself is great - the seasoning is the main thing to discuss. Medium: ... read more

When I tell you I wasn't disappointed at all the tenders was huge and very well seasoned I choose (Hot) the fries are season as well be careful with your choice of sauce on your tenders cause Hot was hot, very nice Dave will be back with more people

Fast ordering on a busy Tuesday night. Customer service was greeted with a smile and sweet service on top of that Inside is really clean and enough seating for daily or individual eating Menu is basic but it's enough food for a regular eater like myself but if you eat you might have to order another tender. Mac n cheese is soft and creamy but pretty good for my taste. The tender are crispy and juicy (way better than raising canes) Even the sauce was better in my opinion or you can use real honey that they have also Milkshak... read more

Busy spot at 7:30. Lines move quick. Menu nice a simple chicken tenders or chicken sliders, fries or Mac and cheese. Chicken lightly dusted with spice, very little salt, which I love!!! Fresh. Fries ok, too salty for me, next time I will ask for no salt. Environment open with graffiti type artwork. Free parking!

Dave's hot chicken has arrived in town and it is living up to the hype! This casual fast food chain offers chicken in a variety of different degrees of hotness. There are sliders, tenders, and bites. The sliders are really tasty and are topped with Dave's Sauce and some of their kale slaw. The hot bites are a really hearty portion. The place is very casual inside but well decorated and on brand. The service is pretty fast, and they now offer online ordering.

I went here for the first time last week. I've been to the one in California and I would say they are pretty comparable. My sister wanted their fries so I ordered them for her. We got the medium spice level. It was actually pretty good, the sauce and chicken bites on top were delectable. It was just the right amount of spice. The wait time is the only reason I'm docking points. I ordered via mobile and when I went to pick up my order because it said it was ready, I watched the woman at the counter take at least five minutes ... read more
