Slider with medium level heat: I didn't feel any heat at this level, just tasted well seasoned and the meat was juicy and tender. The bun has a good bite and tasted buttery and premium. Pickles were good, slaw was seasoned well. The extra Dave's sauce was delicious. Fries well done: perfect amount of crispy for me! Love a properly done crinkle cut fry and this hit the spot. Went well with Dave's sauce and ketchup. Staff were nice and they paced the line well. Food came out relatively fast for the size of the crowd.

Daves hot chicken is sooo good. For one, their range of spice is great as it can truly be for anyone. For another, their not chicken slider is delicious, and my vegetarian friends can also enjoy the meal with me. The staff here was really kind and helpful as I debated on what to get. The food was incredible as always.

The best fast food I’ve had is Dave’s Hot ChickenI love it a lot! Whenever I’m in a rush, hungry, or getting takeout, this is my go-to spot. I also take all my friends here. They’re open late at night, and I absolutely love the taste. Recently, I visited a location where a guy named Josue was at the register. He was warm, welcoming, and took great care of me, making sure I had everything I needed. He even tried recommending items to me, but I let him know that I’m a regular at Dave’s Hot Chicken, just not at this particular location. However, the hospitality was excellent, and the taste was just as amazing as at every other Dave’s Hot Chicken I’ve been to. Overall, this place serves the best of the best food! The service is incredibly fast—just wow!

It was my first time going to Dave’s Hot Chicken, and it was an overall amazing experience. The staff in particular were really kind but I would like to highlight the general manager, Hugo, because his customer service was superb! The food was delicious and tasty, 10/10!! I would highly recommend this place!! :)

I’ve been to other Dave’s Hot chicken spots and this is the same taste, spice, flavor. I ordered two tenders and fries. The tenders were very juicy and flavorful. I got the medium was just the right amount of spice. I’d definitely come back again and try their other menu items. Parking can be very difficult because of the busy area, so walking there is recommended. The interior was very elaborate and very artful.

Amazing food! It was my first time eating here and I loved it. I got the sliders and my husband had the tenders, both were delicious and the spice level was perfect. Your employee Yahara (hope I spelled that right) was so sweet and genuinely seemed to enjoy working there, which is rare to find and really made the experience even better. There was a moment when a homeless man outside was trying to do drugs, which felt uncomfortable, but another employee quickly and professionally asked him to leave. I really appreciated how the staff handled it. The food came out fast, hot, and fresh. Overall, great service and a great experience. We’ll definitely be back!

Absolutely delicious! The chicken was perfectly seasoned, crispy on the outside, and juicy on the inside. Everything tasted fresh and made with care. The portions were generous, and the sides were just as good as the main dish. The staff was friendly and welcoming, and the service was fast without feeling rushed. You can tell they take pride in their food and customer experience. This is definitely one of my go-to spots for great chicken — highly recommend!
