We got the hot and extra hot levels. Really not thaaat hot. Great interiors, liked the funky look. No wait at 5 pm on a Wednesday. Downside- Kinda pricey. Will continue to stick with Chile chicken Nashville hot chicken. Better flavors and prices. And local business.

I had to stop and try this new restaurant in town, and I have to say--it was worth the wait! Although it took about 35 minutes to get my food, the quality definitely made up for it. For a fast-food spot, they could certainly work on cutting down the prep time. There was only one cashier handling a large volume of orders, and it seemed like online/to-go orders were being prioritized over customers dining in or ordering at the counter. If you decide to visit, I'd recommend placing your order online or being prepared to wait in... read more

Not bad! My second favorite spicy chicken tenders in Albuquerque. I know it's a chain but hey, it made the cut. The coating on the chicken was the perfect balance of spice and flavor. The reaper ranch was also a great choice for a dip, luckily not as spicy as it sounds. The large loaded fries were huge, two people with normal appetites could share one. The cauliflower slider was outstanding, my mind was blown how good it was. I might even order it sometimes instead of the chicken. The milkshake made me feel sick thou... read more

The food was great. Even had the cauliflower wings and they were awesome. The employees and the service was excellent. All the employees are extra friendly and extra helpful and went out of their way to see if you needed anything else. Of course, the place was packed as every place in Albuquerque is packed when they open. They had a lot of DoorDash and orders. They had a lot of orders coming in. All the tables inside and outside were full. I've been there three times already. Can't wait to go back. Just wish they had all whi... read more

Cool spot but it is always packed at lunchtime. Friendly service and quick ordering. If you order the Reaper heat you have to sign a waiver at the register. It is hot (spicy) as hell but not dangerous for a spice fan. Good flavor and crunch on the chicken breading.

We visited Dave's Hot Chicken on a busy Friday night with our family, and even though things didn't start perfectly, the way the team handled everything -- especially Andrew -- turned our night around completely. We were told the wait would be about an hour, so we ordered and spent the time talking and enjoying shakes. After a while, we checked on our order and realized it had been ready for some time, but the buzzer never went off. When we opened the food, it was cold, and honestly, we were disappointed. But this is where... read more
