This replaced Boston market, a longtime affordable and tasteful local shop at the mall. Had mixed emotions when this opened but they do have good food. Recommend that top loaded fries and slushiest slushies.

I got a hot slider and some fries and it was good, pretty flavorful but to me the hot was barely spicy. If you can handle spicy food then get the hot, extra hot or reaper if you're brave enough. Ambience was nice, pretty busy as expected, service was quick too! Serving size is okay. Overall was a good spot for a quick bite and food was good.

I love Dave's Hot Chicken. After trying their location on the UES, I was ecstatic to learn it opened near home. Simple menu, chicken tenders, chicken sliders, fries, and other sides and it's all nicely fried and seasoned. I like that the hot makes me pause between bites to cool my mouth; not a lot of places make their food spicy. Ambiance is simple as well, clean, and organized-- what you'd expect from a new establishment. Service is good when it's not busy. There's a lot of hype since they just opened (I understand) so it'l... read more

Chicken joint known for its spicy, Nashville-style tenders, sliders, and kale slaw. Another new location for fried chicken. During their grand opening, this place was super packed. An ordering line, almost out the door. Loud club music was piping in through the speakers. Lets get this party started! The decor is cool snazzy looking graffiti art, lining the walls and ceiling. There is quite a lots of tables but all were filled on this crowded opening day. With school let out, lots of them must have ran over here. M... read more

Decided to try this place out with my kids to see what the hype is all about. I got here at 11am on a Friday to avoid the long line/ wait, Amy who took my order was very patient, helpful & kind, and the restaurant itself was clean, spacious & all the graffiti inspired artwork looked amazing. I opted for the Dave's #1 (medium) and #3 (mild)- substituted the fries for mac & cheese for 1 of them. Was given a buzzer & waited exactly 10 minutes. Pretty pricey- $30 for 2 meals that doesn't include drinks ($6 (1) tender/ $8 slider)... read more

New location located in fresh meadows is really adding a spark to the neighborhood! My daughter and I have been waiting for the grand opening but the dates changed. As I told one of the owners it was well worth the wait. We got to go tonight and there was a long line that at first seems intimidating but we were committed. We were in line for about 15-20min but it didn't feel that long honestly we did review the menu ahead of time so we knew exactly what we wanted when it was our turn. They have plenty of seats that are cons... read more

Knew there was a halal Dave's somewhere, just didn't know it was this location. Was pleasantly surprised when confirmed halal. Service is exceptional, the staff are all so friendly & helpful. 3/5 Dave's #1 ($13): 2 chicken tenders, each on a slice of white bread, fries, pickles, sauce 3/5 chicken tenders: these chicken tenders are unlike any I've ever had before. I got lite mild & they're spicy, sweet, bitter, smoky? Seriously wondering what gives the bitter flavor. It'd be so much better w/o the bitterness. It's spiced p... read more

Be prepared for a wait, which honestly isn't surprising given it's a new location. The service, in the other hand, was disappointingly slow - waiting twenty minutes between ordering and food coming out after 40 minutes on line to order felt like a bit much. The chicken itself was okay - nothing special - and be prepared for the texture of a dry rub heat versus a sauce heat which isn't necessarily something I find enjoyable. The fries were fine, the plain white bread was plain white bread, and the prices weren't unreasonable.... read more

Food 4/5 Service 5/5 Ambiance N/A newly opened so nice layout Chicken is good but a bit too oily (May need to change oil out time to time? Brother said the oil gave him a headache) Got slider and tender (#3 i believe) and mild... next time I go back I'll probably try the medium. Tender comes with a white bread(not toasted) Slider comes with like a potato bread/bun and veggies+pickles. I'll be returning with my wife n kid.
