This is one of the better hot chicken places in DMV. Very easy to order and the food comes out quickly. The only reason why it is not a 5 star is that the size of the chicken is inconsistent. Some days, it is a big piece and other times it is smaller. It also different sizes between a slider or tenders. I would say for regular person, the chicken is spicy enough at Hot level. I backed off to just medium. I like to enjoy my food. It is also nice to be able to eat outdoor at night with the weather warming up.

I want to start off by saying that this place is very affordable and the pricing is amazing for the size of the portions. They got so many great deals and combos. Personally, the taste was a little off for me. I felt like my chicken was heavily coated with spices. It tasted very powdery in my mouth. The fries were delicious though! The staff was quick and they were helpful when ordering and getting supplies. This location is a little small but they still have plenty of seating and everything was clean and organised.

5 stars as always. This store has never been a miss yet, only a hit. I always get hot fresh and tasty food when I order here. And the customer service is outstanding as well.

Perfect for an easy Friday night bite! As someone who doesn't have a high spicy tolerance the 'Mild' was perfect. My partner got 'Hot' and said it was very good. The sauce is amazing!! Also, the staff is very helpful if it's your first time they'll explain the spice levels to you. The food was fresh and the milkshake was very good. Will definitely come again!

This is a nice spot in the Tyson's area that exclusively offers "hot" chicken. The reason for the air quotes is because the dry rub and flavors aren't hot at all. We even ordered the spiciest option and that was probably the level 2 or 3 at most places that offer 5 levels of spicy. So just manage your expectations if you are looking hot and spicy. The chicken itself is freshly breaded and fried so every bite is extra crispy! Aside from that, the service is incredibly friendly and efficient. The entire ordering and receiving... read more

Dave's vs Joe's - Dave's won for us as far as chicken tenders go. We got the 10 piece for $40, great value IMO bc we got 3 meals out of it essentially. The tenders were huge and flavorful. The mild was not spicy at all but the hot was pretty spicy so I'll go for medium next time.

If you like turmeric, you will like Dave's hot chicken. I'm not the biggest fan of this place because I'm not a big fan of turmeric. Solid, price point for the quality of chicken you get. Fries and drink options can make you want more. Parking sucks since it's a busy corner. Waiting for your food while everyone else is trying to grab it makes the entire scenario uneasy. Overall solid but not my cup of tumeric.

Been twice and it hit the spot both times. Chicken tenders are a good size and were piping hot with just the right amount of spice, friendly service in a clean comfortable environment. Great value.

Wow. Enough said. Done. Seriously, this place rocks. The sandwiches are made from tenders that are huge. Sometimes you will get a tender a bit bigger than another time it any time, they sizes of the tender is great. The breading and sauce are out of this world. They have no sauce, mild, medium, hot, extra hot and reaper, which for the reaper you need to sign a form. I have not tried the reaper. I usually do mild and sometimes get medium. The medium has a nice kick to it but what I like about the heat is it does not li... read more
