This was our first time here. I ordered Combo #1, which was 2 tenders w/ fries (medium spice level). Hubby ordered Combo #2, 2 chicken sliders (extra hot) w/ fries. We also got top loaded fries (Hot). I ordered a Vanilla Oreo top loaded shake, which was incredibly delicious!!! I want to go back here just for the shake! That vanilla ice cream was so sweet & creamy & very vanila-ey (that's a word right??). Ok, I'll focus on the chicken spice levels now. The extra hot was WAY too spicy for me. I wish I hadn't eaten that one fir... read more

New to our area and we decided to try this Dave's Hot Chicken and i must say we were not disappointed once so ever. We had tried the one in Tampa awhile back and the chicken spice level was so so so hot I couldn't even eat it and that was medium spicy. So i was a little hesitant about trying it again but i took a chance and glad I did

I've gone twice to this location now, employees are very friendly and helpful. Both times the chicken is super fresh and juicy like 10/10 I tried two different heat levels. Medium is just the right amount of heat for me I like spice but also want to enjoy my food. I read prior reviews that said the heat levels are no joke so medium is perfect if you want a kick but not overbearing !

I have never heard of this place until I saw it today. I was craving protein and chicken fits that pretty nicely. It is a fast food chicken place but better than KFC and Popeyes. I love the decor here and the music is good. How about the food you ask? Well, I ordered the slider and the tender combo extra hot! I was afraid to order the reaper and I wasn't in the mood for that much heat. Somehow I got a beeper that I thought was mine. As soon as I got to my table, an associate came behind me with my Large Oreo shake. Now that ... read more

New, locally owned (!) chicken place. Being a standout in the chicken world can be a challenge, but this is standout good! Service was helpful and friendly. Cool graffiti art inside. Scale of hotness is accurate. My lite mild was perfect for me. My son got medium and he said it was solid. I really like the kale slaw on the slider. Pickles are tasty, Dave's sauce is too. Standard drinks plus frozen and boba options. Big portions! We will be back - highly recommend.

I'm gonna give it a 4. Honestly probably should be a 3. Been there twice now. First time ordered the middle heat level I think it was called medium. Medium was NOT HOT AT ALL. Second time, due to medium not being hot at all, ordered hot. That chit lit a fire in my mouth and resulted in a profuse sweat. Adding on it has way too much seasoning on the hot level. I don't know if I will try their chicken again. Now, on the other hand, their lucky charm strawberry shake WAS ABSOLUTELY BUSS. Maybe if I had the shake after the HOT A... read more

The chicken sandwich and the slaw are delicious. The sauce is mustard based so we got it on the side. We started with mild and worked our way up to hot. I would not recommend any hotter. The service was great. My only complaint is the music is too loud especially in the back of the restaurant since it created a tunnel and you are trapped in the loud music. But that will not stop us from enjoying the great food. A great addition to this area.

First time here. Got no season chicken bites. Great breading nice flavor chicken nice and moist. Fries have a good crisp and flavor. Portion bit on skimpy side. Also skimpy with sauces. Got the reaper chicken sandwich. OMG I'm a chili head and this thing was beyond spicy. I could not finish it. The sauce is a combination of acid gasoline and nuclear waste. I will never get that again lol. The Daves sauce is better than that other place.

$30 for 2 meals not including drinks? This is some California pricing for halfway decent chicken. Seasoning was the best part of the meal. Check your order before you leave as we didn't and ended up with the completely wrong meal, so that didn't help the experience. I'd try it again for hopefully a better experience but have to save up for a month to afford a couple more tenders.
