Hubby and I have been wanting to try DHC since they opened. Upon arriving, I noticed how busy and crowded they were, But it didn't stop us from going. There was a line wrapped around the building, but it moved pretty quick. Once you make it to the door, there is a working standing there to let you in. The food ordering line was long, but moved quick. We opted to take our food to-go as the inside was just too busy and I find it quite awkward to sit in front of the window and people stare in your face while eating. I order t... read more

This stretch of Chesterfield Airport Rd is filled with seemingly abandoned, anachronistic-looking chain restaurants. Some of them have clearly gone out of business. In some cases, the lunch rush may not have started yet. It's 11 AM on a Wednesday. Dave's Hot Chicken, meanwhile, has a line out the door. It's 400 degrees outside, and some of their more inconsiderate patrons are entirely unconcerned that they're "letting all the cold air out." Other nearby restaurants, obviously jealous, are blocking parking spaces for their o... read more

First time to this new location and first time to Dave's. Line has been out the door and around the building for first couple of weeks. I had #3 combo. "Hot" is hot enough that I don't care to go higher. My wife ordered "mild", and said she would go for "medium" next time. Good and juicy chicken. Decent crinkle fries. We prefer ketchup over dipping sauce. Sandwich was better flavor combination than just strip. Good value. $14 Combo meal is easily for 2 people to share. Loud background music is ok, super loud ord... read more

I like it but I do understand when others says it's hype. I will definitely be back but medium is the right spice for me. I went twice and got Hot the second time, never again lol the strawberry lemonade is awesome and definitely came in handy when I got the hot spice level. It's good but over priced as well

Love Dave's! We first had it out of town on vacation and were very excited when they opened one here. I know everyone has their preference on tenders, Dave's is my favorite! They also moved very fast for his busy they were!

There was line all the way outside of the building and around the corner at Dave's Hot Chicken. I loved the decor. It was packed. The places was extremely busy. The young lady the took my order was very polite. Other workers were very courteous. I ordered the chicken slider. I chose medium heat. The chicken was spicy. It appeared to me me it was seasoned with chili peppers seasoning. The cheese fries were very good. Fruit Punch slushy was good. Thecfood came quick to my surprise. I enjoyed everything.

Basing it only in comparison to other places like this in the area, it was excellent! The chicken is like literal friend chicken off the bone. Delicious White meat soft and moist! An abundance of pickles on my sandwich (I did mild) Dave's secret sauce, kale slaw and a bit of honey on top, magnificent!!!! We waited about 15 outside then another 25 inside until we ordered. One line was very efficient with someone taking orders in line. The other line you waited until you got to the counter. Much slower. We enjoyed the food, fr... read more

Dave's Hot Chicken opened 7/11/25 I believe and we came 7/14/25. OMG the line was so long. It was wrapped around the back of the building. Is say we waiting about 45 minutes until we were able to order then another 15 to get our food. It wasn't so bad but it was humid outside. The staff managing the door and lines was very friendly. It's pretty much chicken nuggets, strips and sandwich. You can also get cauliflower to sub for chicken if that's your thing. With there being 4 of us, we all ordered a few different combos ... read more

I visited Dave's Hot Chicken on opening day 7/11/2025. Upon arrival there were huge crowds about 100 deep wrapped around the outside corner, and friendly employees working the crowd while handing out plastic chickens and menus. The line went relatively quick, given the crowd, it took about 15 minutes to get to the counter and 5 minutes to receive food. The dining area was a bright and open design with windows on all sides and a cheeky hot chicken decor. I ordered a hot box of sliders(5 hot and 5 extra hot), a hot box of tend... read more
