Food was actually really good, I'd love to give it another shot on a better day. The cashier was very nice and provided great service. However the restaurant was packed definitely couldn't eat in comfortably and the wait time was horrid. Waited around half an hour for a #3 combo, wouldn't wish that on anyone, didn't help that I had to stand the whole time. Also the drink machine isn't working.

I ordered for pickup and it was ready exactly when they said it would be! Very punctual. They were very welcoming and friendly when I arrived to pick it up, took care to help me right away, and Tasha even gave me a complimentary milkshake, which was a lovely surprise~ The food itself was excellent, hot, and tasty, with very generous portions (I ordered the combo--a chicken sandwich, a tender, and fries). Would definitely order again! 

Business response:

Aww we are so glad that you enjoyed your meal and that we were able to create a memorable experience for you. We hope that you come back again soon!

Dave's Hot Chicken - Downtown Philadelphia Location I'm in Philadelphia for work this week, and every time I visit, Dave's Hot Chicken is a must. This was my first time at the downtown location, and it definitely did not disappoint. I placed my order through the app to earn rewards, then walked in to dine. The restaurant was pretty busy, but I found a seat and waited about 15-20 minutes for my order. One thing I always appreciate about Dave's locations is the vibrant artwork on the walls--this one had that same signature s... read more

I like the Philly-themed murals in the dining area. Staff was welcoming for first time customers like me and she explained the menu well. You can choose the level of heat. You need to sign a waiver for the hottest one. I picked the "little spice ". I didn't taste any heat at all. The chicken was very tender and moist. Nice crunchy coating and not greasy at all. But, very plain, boring, and lacks of seasoning even after I add the sauce. 

Business response:

We'd really love a second chance to earn those 2 extra stars. If you have a few extra seconds, would you mind connecting with us at https://tellusdirect.com/dhc?

Great food and heat. Atmosphere and employees also great. Employee very good but unable to help decide what to eat based on taste - would recommend employees able to test food for hot levels
