Dave's Hot Chicken

Been a while since I've been to a Dave's Hot Chicken but saw they had sort of lightly breaded nuggets so went today. I'll say their tenders are fine but not my style, however the bites were fantastic. Probably one of the best chain chicken I've had in a while. Pricing is pretty decent too for what it is so would go again.

Dave’s Hot Chicken is an amazing spot that delivers bold flavor and perfectly crispy chicken every time. The menu offers just the right level of spice for everyone, from mild to fiery hot. The staff is friendly, fast, and always upbeat. Every bite is juicy, flavorful, and satisfying, making it a must-visit for chicken lovers.

The quality of this location has gone down I believe since losing the senior manager to the new Cottle location. The quality control here is lost. I saw the girl who works the cash register behind the kitchen cooking my food last few times. I think she’s a teenager with little experience my order came out wrong and for what I paid for I feel ripped off. This order was a complete disaster the Large Top Load Fries were in the cardboard box that wasnt half full the fries were not crispy as usual the chicken was overcooked and dried out. It was lacking cheese that is essential for this item. When I ordered a regular sized item at Cottle loction I got the same amount this time around even though I ordered and paid for a Large. Horrible experience ruined the Thursday Night Football Game because I was not even able to share with anyone since the portion was minimized. Worse Dave Hot experience to date and I’ve never had a bad experience since I started going. This use to be my go to Spot.

Just flew in to San Jose from Seattle and needed some eats as the hotel restaurant was under renovation. Ok, quick search turned up the usual fair but then I spotted Dave’s. Hmm I like chicken, I like spicy chicken, let’s go. Well, until now, spicy chicken was Pop Eyes, Chic-fil-a, or Ezells Famous. (Seattle place) Whoa, those are no longer spicy, but much to my delight Dave’s Hot Chicken lives up to their name. This is spicy chicken like it’s meant to be! I ordered the slider, tender meal at level “Hot.” I figured that was a safe bet as there were still 2 levels above that. Hot did not disappoint! Lip smacking, juicy, spicy and tangy all at the same time. Absolutely deliciously fantastic! Add in the pickle slices, crinkly cut fries with Dave’s sauce and this was an outright 5 star treat! My only regret, it will be much too longe before I get to return and enjoy another great meal. Great tunes playing in the dinner room as well. Hey Dave, when you coming to Seattle!?!? You got your number 1 customer ready to go. 😎

My fav fried chicken place in town. I order one hot box of tenders at least once a week and they always come hot and impeccable. Stuff are generally friendly and helpful.

Loved the location, restaurant was clean for the most part, outdoor seating I believe functioning restrooms. Not a wide selection of drinks or sauces nonetheless atmosphere was overall unwelcoming. Service was sub par, would I return - definitely not. Recommended by a close friend of mine and I’m so glad we came together, it made up for the unpleasant experience.

Dave’s Hot Chicken at Rivermark Plaza is my go-to spot when I’m hungry and need food quickly. I usually get the medium-spiced chicken slider with fries, and sometimes the chicken nuggets with a soda. The chicken is always fresh, juicy, and consistently delicious. The place is clean with plenty of seating, the bathrooms are well-maintained, and the staff are courteous. A big plus is that they serve halal chicken and stay open late at night, which makes it a reliable choice. Overall, a solid spot for flavorful chicken and quick service. 🍗 Quick Tip: Go for the medium-spiced chicken slider with fries—perfect balance of flavor and heat!

The service was great, I ordered online before coming and it was ready as soon as I arrived. I decided to eat in since I was getting ready to drive home. I got the 4 mini chicken sliders which came with fries and it was great. It was probably the best chicken I've ever had. Fries were perfect too. I usually hate pickles but I gave some a try and it literally makes you feel like Remy from Ratatouille. Overall 10/10 I will definitely be coming back again!!

Okay this place is so good. You must get the cauliflower slider! Such a delicious vegetarian option! I got mild and will totally try hot next time. My partner wanted to come here for the chicken but he liked my sandwich too. I love crinkle cut fries and they have them! So good! The pickles are so fresh and love that they don't skimp on them. The bun was so soft and their sauce is the perfect addition. I also love creamy mac and they have it! Not too salty or watery. Service is quick but not too quick, good things take time. I love that they have a pick-up window so you don't have to go in. Although the inside is clean and they have fun artwork.

Uniqueness: Apparently their spiciest level requires a waiver to sign beforehand! Wait Time: [x][x][x][x][ ] Food Quality: [x][x][x][x][x] Service: [x][x][x][x][ ] Setting: [x][x][x][x][ ] Cost: [x][x][x][x][ ] Recommendation? Their cauliflower side is surprisingly delicious as well. Made a quick spot here to get some chicken for lunch and was satisfied with my visit here. I ordered the chicken sandwich combo (medium spice) with the fried cauliflower on the side. Spice level is actually pretty reasonable in spice; not mild and has a nice kick and the flavor and texture of the fried chicken was great for a chicken sandwich. The herbs or flavor in general that they use though was interesting, a slight sweetness came alongside the saltiness and spice that was perfectly complimenting! The cauliflower sides were really good too and would highly recommend getting them again as a side. In the end, Dave's is a good chicken fast food joint to stop by for a quick bite for lunch and I'll definitely make another stop in the future.

Been a bit since I last reviewed. Service is always good. Place is kept really clean. Always get the same (#5 Combo, one strip and fries served with a slice of white bread and pickles). Happy that they provide a military discount! See you next time!

A friend and I shared the #2 meal with two sliders and fries. It was enough to fill us up but we weren't stuffed. I think if there were a few more fries, it would have been a good meal to share. The meal was almost $20 without a drink, which seems steep to me. It was good but for the price, I don't think I'll be running back. It was good though!

Never had it. But it was 9:30pm at night and it was open. The guy who ordered before me - he ordered two chicken burgers and fries and ate everything! So he really loved it. For me, it wasn't exactly the same. Food was okay. Their product seems to rival Cane's, except their signature is the dry rub on their chicken. I got chicken bites. One friend got chicken tenders. And two friends got the chicken burgers. Fries were good and crunchy. My chicken bites were okay. The rub felt very rubbery or chalky on my tongue and cheeks. The chicken was tender. We ate all our food. It was not bad/okay. However I probably won't come back. Although I am a life fan of second chances. So I probably will come back!

Love the rivermark location, always nice people and clean. My only issue is the spice levels seem to have quite a bit of variation depending on the day. Lite spice was super lite and barely anything when it had more spice last time. I enjoy their spiced fries quite a bit!

This place is amazing! All Dave's Hot Chicken's are good, but this one above all is great. I usually do door dash pick up but they're still pretty fast. Service was also very great and fries were cooked to perfection. Definitely will come back for more!

I heard so many good things so I decided to try them for lunch. I got a two strip (lite spice) with fries, side of Mac & cheese, and a rocket pop slushy. It was all in at $30-ish. A bit pricey imho, but I wanted to splurge for lunch today and try something new. Headed back to work and dove in. I'll be completely honest. For the amount of food I received, I felt this was too expensive. I did lite spice to my strips, and while they weren't spicy, to my taste they were just a bit too salty. Fortunately I asked for some honey, and drizzling it onto the strips helped offset the saltiness. The amount of Mac & cheese was so small for how much it cost. And I'm sorry to be such a downer, but it didn't really taste much different than Mac & cheese from KFC. Fries were ok, standard fare wrinkle-cut. They had some seasoning which I think was a bit salty as well. But dipping them in ketchup helped. The rocket pop slushy was delicious though! This too was a bit expensive for how much they give, but this got the spot on a pretty warm day. I might go back to see if their seasoning really is salty, or perhaps that was just the day I visited. Though I feel it's a just a tad too expensive, I will absolutely come back and try the other slushy drinks. The Hi-C orange slush drink sounds delicious.

We come here pretty often because I love Dave's and this location is the closest to our house but the staff isn't so welcoming . We always see the short Mexican guy wearing all black late nights , assuming he's the manager . He never smiles or even seems like he wants to be there . ALWAYS has an attitude , I never want to ask him for anything cause once he gives us our order he turns his back to us . Never puts anything in the bag for us . If you don't want us to linger in the store , maybe you should put the ketchup and napkins in the bag for us .. maybe ask if we want more sauce ? some type of hospitality. Will no longer be coming back to this location , his face makes me lose my appetite.

I came to eat at Dave's Chicken and the food was truly delicious--both my wife and I enjoyed it a lot. On top of that, the customer service from Sergio was excellent.

I ordered 1 Large Dave's Sauce when picking up my online order.. I waited for over 15 minutes for them to hand me a cold container that I watched sit on the pickup window for about 5 minutes. By the time I got home my food was cold like the sauce First and last time ever going to this location. I should have gone to Angry Chickz instead.

Dave's hot chicken is hands down the best chicken I have ever tried in my life. It was amazing. Service was quick, and its decorated super cool. Overall 10/10 experience and I will be returning.

I visited this place for the 1st time and I super like it. My friend Claudia brought me to this place and I got a #4 Extra Hot and it was super delicious. Place looks clean and with a fancy art everywhere.

This place waaaass so amazing! The service here has been soooo amazing, it's like no other! Alex here went above and beyond to make sure that my experience here was superb! I haven't been to any location or other restaurant where I felt like someone can make my experience so exceptional! The food was amazing and the food came out great! He came multiple times to check and make sure that the meal was good and how everything was. I haven't been to a place or establishment with this type of service when it comes to a more casual dine in experience.

I came in today for HOT chicken and wasn't disappointed. Restaurant was clean and staff was friendly and accommodating. I love hot spice so I tried the "extra hot" chicken tenders and they were perfect. Chicken was juicy and breading/batter was crispy. Seasoned to perfection! Spicy but not overwhelming (for me). Fries were great too! Lupe (I thinks she's the manager) was such a doll and very sweet.

Have not tried Cane's but this was really good. Just a tad expensive for the quantity of food. I got two meals and it was $40, felt more like $30 in value. Fries are crinkle cut, should be shoe string to be even better, but I suppose that is just personal preference. Place is decorated very hip, like something out of a comic book or something. Service was pretty fast though, looked like a hard working team back there.

The location was clean when I picked up my order. I got the two-sandwich combo with fries--one mild and one medium. However, they tasted almost the same, so I'm not sure if I received two mild sandwiches or if the medium simply isn't that spicy. On the plus side, there's plenty of parking since it's located in Rivermark Plaza.

I wanted to grab a quick lunch and decided to finally try the new Dave's Hot Chicken in the Rivermark Plaza. The waiter who took my order was super nice and gave me a few suggestions since it was my first time here. I ended up ordering the #4, which is one slider with fries. It was prepared super quickly and the same waiter came over and mixed their signature sauce with a honey packet and told me it was a really popular combination to try with the fries- and he was so right! The slider was really good, packed with flavor, and the chicken tender itself was very juicy. The only thing I would suggest would be if to add more coleslaw to the slider. I really appreciated the inside tips and friendliness of everyone at this location, I will definitely be back again in the future!

I got the Dave's #3 with extra hot and extra pickles and it was freshly made to order. I would say that i don't think getting a slider is worth it, just because in comparison of my friends plate who got the Dave's #1, the size of the tenders were really different. I'm assuming sliders are made with smaller tenders, to fit in the bun, which makes sense. But price wise, I think it's more worth it to get tenders instead. Nonetheless, it is good chicken. The service is great, and the store is in the same plaza as a few other popular restaurants so parking isn't too bad. The store is spacious and there is also outdoor seating as well.

3.5 stars. If you love salty fried chicken, Dave's is a good choice! Never dry and the fries are addicting. Mac & cheese resembles the one from KFC. Also, random observation: the pickles here are bigger than other locations for some reason? Love that. The meals are affordable and there's lots of seating here. This location is a little slow, but overall gets the job done. I recommend trying the sliders; my personal favorite. Skip the cheese.

Really bad service. On two separate occasions only half the order was delivered. Be very careful when ordering for delivery or even when picking up.

I thought i had explored so many burger chains, what new thing will this one be and then i decided to give it a try on a weekday lunch break and voila! I was surprised in a good way and now i cant wait for monday!! I tried their online ordering website and it was pretty easy and intuitive. With much ease, i was able to schedule a pick up order and when i reached rivermark plaza i could find prking right outside the corner restaurant :) the place was so inviting and had a cool vibe to it. In $12, i got: dave's #4 - 1 chicken slider with potato bun - 4.5/5 yummy spicy flavorful well cooked and loved the kale slaw and peppers are my fav anyway! - delish fries - on side 5/5 they stole the show for me :) crinkle cut soft juicy fresh and spiced up ! Yay! I am glad i ordered some honey packets as they enhanced the taste of the sliders when it was about to give me a heartburn. They do lots of levels for spice and i went with medium and i liked it. I can handle the next one too but i enjoyed "medium" more. Loved the friendly service, clean tables and funky graffiti interiors. They have a small pick up window too for to-go orders if u are in a hurry! Its the perfect middle for my chick fila buddies and five guys fries friends :)

Came on a weekend lunch time at around 11:30 am with some coworkers to avoid the lunch rush. The interior is nice and has a street style design on the walls. The tables and everything was really clean. I ordered Dave's #4, which is one slider with fries for $9.99. I added cheese for an additional $0.69. For the slider, I got it with medium spice. I think I have a decent spice tolerance so I would get spicy or maybe even extra spicy next time. We waited about 5 minutes after ordering to get the food. The staff was friendly and I wasn't expecting them to stop by tables and ask us if we needed anything or if the food is alright, so that was really nice of them. I like their fries which are crinkle cut fries fried to a nice crispiness outside with the soft potato on the inside. Their burgers are decent too but I liked their fries more. They had their special house sauce which paired perfectly with the fries and burgers. The employee who gave me the food gave me some honey packets. At first, I thought it was a bit weird to add honey to the special sauce but I tried it and ended up really enjoying it, which surprised me a bit. Would recommend friends to try this place!

I was craving some Fried Chicken Sandwiches and decided to stop by here since I was in the area. I ordered with the cashier and the food came out pretty quickly! I really liked the interior of the place; it has like a downtown-city vibe with graffiti art and lights. I got the 2 Sliders with fries and was extremely disappointed after eating it. The chicken was really salty and the fries were so soggy. I did like the sauce however and the crispiness of the chicken, but I've had way better chicken sandwiches at other places. Unfortunately I likely wouldn't return in the future.

Place got good vibes! I've been a fan of Dave's Hot Chicken. This place, has a Nashville style of chicken that you can find all over the Bay Area. Service was great. Friendly. Able to know something new. They recommend putting honey in the slider. Also, some Dave sauce if you want extra. Place is clean & got cool art work, if your into that thing. Would recommend.

Yum! A solid chicken joint, and they're open late as well! Order the sliders combo along with a side of mac and cheese and chicken tender. Ordered at the counter, but bummer their fountain soda machine was not working! Order was ready pretty quick and in the meantime, a worker walked around seeing if we needed anything. Ordered medium spice, and it was the perfect kick. Chicken is so tender and juicy, and the slaw and bun are perfect compliments to it. Added some honey as well, and with their sauce, super tasty. The mac and cheese wasn't great but not bad. Ended up air frying the chicken tender the next day, and still so good, plenty of flavor. Will be back again for sure!

Love the simple menu and straightforward selection. You order at the counter and there are tables inside to eat or two tables outside. First time, I ordered in person and food came out at a decent pace. The inside is spacious and the walls are painted with graffiti-inspired art. Second time here I tried online ordering since I had my dog with me. There's a convenient pickup window--sort of like a drive thru window but for walking. My order was ready on time and was still warm/hot once I got home to eat. Food overall was pretty good. Chicken so far have been good size tenders, was provided plenty of pickles, and the chicken and fries were well seasoned. The mac and cheese is pretty standard and cheesy. The milkshake is also alright--I think it's from a soft serve machine and they mix it but I could be mistaken. Subtracted a star do to consistency in spiciness-- the first time I ordered medium spice and it didn't taste spicy whatsoever; the second time I ordered medium and it was moderately much more spicy than I anticipated.

We ordered the Dave's #2 and #3, two sliders and fries, one slider / chicken tender and fries. The fries were perfectly seasoned and tender while being the right amount of crisp. It's warmth paired perfectly with the thousand island. Honestly, the #2 with two sliders are more than enough to feed two people. We got a slider in medium and mild, for me, medium was the perfect punch of flavor while not being too overwhelming. My only gripe with the sliders is that the temperature distribution is weird, with the bottom half, including the cheese, being very cold and the top half being very hot. In addition, cheese is .75 per combo (not slider) and I could barely taste it with the chicken being very thick. The chicken tender is the slider without the bread, coleslaw and sauce. Overall, very fun and enjoyable experience. For things to do around the area, the plaza is conveniently located next to a public library, twenty minutes away from a park that was once a mental hospital, and Safeway for your different needs!

Good but not sure what all the hype is about. Tenders we're a decent size and the fries were soft yet crispy, but I also feel like you can get the same thing at a lot of other similar restaurants. That said, I don't like spicy food so I can't speak on the hot flavors (I got mine with no spice). The line also moved fast and despite a lot of people inside waiting, the food came out fast.

The highly anticipated Dave's Hot Chicken is the latest new eatery in Rivermark Plaza, having put up the big DAVE'S HOT CHICKEN sign up months ago, teasing the community with excitement. Love the fact that they are open late (for Santa Clara standards) and they have an online order pickup window so you can avoid having to go indoors in a pinch. The inside is painted a frenetic energy reminiscing of a marvel comics intro. I can envision the space to be a bustling location, at least to start off. The menu is super simple - just four combo choices then a short a La carte menu. Here's what I sampled: Slider - Mini chicken hamburger with kale slaw and pickles. I like the reasonableness of the portion so it's something that anyone can digest in a single seating. The heat comes in the form of a powder rub rather than a slimy sauce so the experience is certainly cleaner than your typical all you can eat hot wings restaurant. Tender - Really just a version of the slider without the bun and slaw. They actually put a slice of bread underneath. 'Hot' gives a decent burn and the rub is reminiscing of Indian spices. The chicken itself is pretty tender and juicy. Fries - Wavy cut and fried to an nice crisp. Excellent. This might be my go-to afternoon snack moving forward... will try the cheese fries next time. Maybe close to midnight.... Kale slaw - Fresh, cool and light with the dressing. Really yummy. Highly recommended to alleviate the impending post-meal guilt. Mac & Cheese - Bubbling with cheesy goodness. It's dangerous, not terribly unique, Strawberry Milkshake - Rich and creamy, not too hard to suck up a straw so I give this a thumbs up. Pairs well with savory fried chicken! Choose Your Heat - but it's mixed with the chicken so you can't really get samples on the side. Reaper - waiver required Extra Hot Hot Medium Mild Lite Mild No Spice Overall, I am pretty impressed that coming out of the gate, the staff, process, food and vibe is that of an established known hang out. That's all

If I could leave zero stars I would. My boyfriend ordered the reaper level spice and signed a waiver. It was inedible but he knew the risks. But my order was for a mild slider with no pickles. Idk what happened but my slider was just as spicy as his reaper, and there were pickles in the slider and on the side. We ordered to go so it's too much to have to drive all the way back. I tried contacting the place to see if we can just get a refund for our order but there's no way to contact the place directly. No one answers the phone. I can tolerate some spice but their "mild" had my lips swollen and burning. Very disappointed with food and service!

1 slider and fries is enough to fill me up, even though it doesn't look like it. That being said, I always order 2 sliders. I don't normally do super spicy but hot and extra hot are totally fine for a kick. I think hot is my sweet spot but once I made the horrible mistake with ordering the reaper. It was so hot I had to wash the chicken to even make it edible. I felt like I was dying. As long as I don't get reaper, I'm coming back for more. Oh! If you take it to-go, vent the box because the fries get soggy.

I felt inadequate dinning at this fine establishment, as there was a lady seated adjacent from me consuming this delicacy with fine plastic ware. Very mindful, very elegant, very demure. Here I was devouring my meal merely with my hands like some sort of baboon. The chicken had a delicate crispy texture in the mouth. However the heavy dusting of spice detracted frothe whole experience. The crinkle cut fries were delightful with a twinge of tang provided by the dave's sauce.

The good: The chicken! I think they've nailed the spices and the spice level on my mild spice level of the chicken, and the chicken itself is realllyyy moist and juicy! Very impressed for a fast food place! The dining area and bathrooms are also kept very clean! The okay: The milkshake was pretty mediocre. It was more milk than ice within a couple minutes--given the price, I probably wouldn't get it again. I was also hoping to substitute the sliced bread with a different side, but it looks like the cashier wasn't able to do anything to accommodate, though that's understandable. The bad: Incredibly flimsy pieces of bread on the sliders. Perhaps more forgivable for a fast food place, but the prices are substantially beyond fast food prices, unfortunately--I would expect more. The ugly: They overcharged me more than advertised on the milkshake (should've been $7.49 + $2 for extra toppings, but they charged $10.49 instead). I asked if they could correct the price, but they refused to do anything about it, even after acknowledging that I was indeed overcharged based on the prices from the menu. Boo. Overall: Very good chicken! There's room for improvement on the sides and milkshakes. Refusing to correct an incorrect price on the receipt is unacceptable and unfortunately preempts the better parts of this establishment.

So Dave's Hot Chicken made it to Santa Clara! honestly, I'm surprised. There's a lot of restaurants here but how many Hot Chicken spots? Not many! Maybe outside of SC so yes, it's surprising! The first location I've been to was the one in Sunnyvale and I've been ordering the same thing since. 2 tenders medium combo - flavor and crispiness never disappoints. I'm glad it's pretty consistent from different visits and city. It's odd that their combo doesn't come with a drink and only fries. I like spicy but medium spice level is a bearable and steady. Hot is pretty spicy if you want to kick it up a notch. Anything after, who hurt you.. Haven't actually dined in this location only pick up but online orders have been smooth each time. Love the pick up window concept instead of going in

hot girl hotties eat hot chicken @daveshotchicken meanwhile i'm eating lite mild lol. @daveshotchicken has some solid hot chicken. the chicken is super juicy and their mac and cheese is DANK. this is also the only place i enjoy crinkle cut fries lol. what we ordered: lite mild chicken tender #4 , hot chicken slider with fries mac and cheese

I was curious and decided to try this place out after the gym and the interior is colorful and vibrant, which caught my attention as I walked in. When it comes to service, the workers are very quick. The lady (I'm assuming the manager) is really polite as well since she came to my table to check up how I'm doing. I also got my food pretty fast, which is about less than 5 minutes even though I ordered a tender and slider along with fries (#3) and asked them to make it mild. I like how there's some sweetness in my meal along with the spiciness. It's as if there are many flavors to taste as I'm biting into it. Overall, the food is great and I would definitely come back here if I need a quick bite.

Hand down the best chicken tenders for a quick eat joints. I love me a good chicken tender. Before trying Dave's my favorite was from Raising Kanes but I think Dave's hot is my new favorite. I always get the sandwich and tender combo. I like to get a side of Mac and cheese and put it in my sandwich. Yes its super fatty but it's so good so don't know it till you try it! For the spice level be careful because when I ordered medium hot it definitely had a nice kick. I also tried their reaper which is the hottest one on the menu, it was almost black which was intimidating but wasn't too bad.. haha Service is standards for any fast food place. The food comes out hot and relatively quick. They missed my mac and cheese but they fixed it right away. Staff are friendly and pretty chill.

Very good spicy chicken. Not much else on the menu. They deliver on what they promise. Really good hot chicken. The staff were friendly, the bathrooms were very clean. A good choice if you are craving something spicy.

Visited on a Thursday night, arriving quite late. The service we received was outstanding! The guy working there was very attentive and checked in to ensure everything was going well. Despite our arrival during the final 30-45 minutes of their operating hours, they went above and beyond to create a wonderful dining experience (I apologize for the timing, but thank you immensely for your outstanding service)! Ordered #2 (2 Sliders With Fries)The food a hot/fresh. Chicken was perfectly battered, crispy, and seasoned. The fries too!! They don't look very seasoned, but are always delicious! I like how it comes with extra pickles and sauce. Oh, and you musttt add honey in your sliders!!Plenty of seating in the inside and it was clean.In a plaza, so there is a good amount of parking. Among all of their locations, this one is my favorite!! :) I'm genuinely glad that they opened this location, and I'm definitely looking forward to returning.

Let me start by saying we like spicy food! We were new to Dave's so we asked the manager on duty about the spice levels and specifically the "hot." I told him I was hoping for like "buffalo" sauce. He very offhandedly said "oh it's not that hot at all." (His whole demeanor was blasé.) so we ordered hot. It was awful -- so hot as to not be enjoyable at all. I ruined my nails trying to peel off the crust, and we used napkins to try to pat/soak away some of the spice; we never could so we hardly ate any of the chicken. My issue is with the guy who never showed any concern or even curiosity what we as new customers thought. We both went to tell him the chicken was too hot to be enjoyable and he never apologized for the misleading recommendation. I'm sure I will go to another Dave's in the future and choose a mild spice but I will not go back to this particular location.

We went here twice already and both time were really good. Foot is tasty not salty. Sauce is good and the staff is really nice. place is clean. Even the bathroom is clean. Food also was ready super quick!

February 19, 2023 Came with my partner to see what the buzz is about the newly opened Dave's Hot Chicken Atmosphere - 5 stars Food - 4 star Service - 5 stars --Atmosphere-- The inside is brand new with high ceilings and cool murals on the walls. There are many places to sit and staff that waits around to clean tables, push chairs in, and even open the door for you! --Food-- We ordered 2 Mild Sliders w/ Fries and 2 Medium Sliders w/ Mac n Cheese. The fries were very well done and we enjoyed the sauce as well as the pickles that come with the meal. The Mac n Cheese was plain and tasted like microwaved Mac n Cheese that you can get from Safeway. The Sliders tasted very good with a hint of honey and just a bit of spice since we ordered them not as spicy. They were too salty, but overall a good meal. I feel like you get plenty of food for the price. Also, it was nice to be able to sub the fries with mac n cheese so that's a plus. --Service-- There were so many people working there, there was almost no line, and the food came out quickly. There were additional people waiting around to greet you as they open the door when you come in and out, people to clean tables, make sure chairs are pushed in, and overall help with whatever you needed. I hope that the service continues to be this good in the future! --Future-- I am glad that Dave's hot chicken opened up in the area. That property started off as a Mcdonalds', then Smash Burger, then now currently Dave's Hot Chicken. I will definitely come back in the future if I am craving a Chicken Sandwich. I have been to other locations and can definitely recommend the Sliders and Fries. Next time I may try a milkshake and a hotter spice level as well. I will adjust the rating, hopefully for the better, on future visits. For now, keep doing what you're doing, I hope you guys are here to stay.

Service was great, the cashier was friendly and personable. Time it took to receive my order was average ~10 minutes or so. The shakes are great with a good balance of thickness and sweetness. I had the cauliflower nuggets. However, it was just alright. Mushy and caked with seasoning/spice. The rest of the party had the chicken sandwiches. Juicy patty and balanced amount of seasoning/spice.

The chicken tenders are juicy on the inside and crunchy/crispy on the outside. I usually get traditional Buffalo wings. These have a dryrub then are fried. So nothing like Buffalo style. I tried medium heat since its my first time & not sure how hot they go. Even medium had nice heat that was not sooo hot you couldn't enjoy the food. Frues were crispy & good. I give them 3 stars because they only have ketchup & Dave's special sauce. I'm a Ranch girl! So that was a bummer. It's a limited menu, but if you perfect a couple of things, I'm sure you will make it work. It's kinda pricy. After the tip (flipped screen at cashier) I spent approx $20 for the 2 strip with fries & small drink. Also wish they sold cold beers. Only soft drinks available.

Went twice last week. Level 5 spice. Must visit place for friends chicken lovers, I've had the hot chicken in Nashville and I believe this far exceeds that in terms of taste, freshness and vibe. Service was also really quick and streamlined.

Food is good. Chicken is spicyyyy because I overestimated myself. Came here a few times with friends during lunch. Decent place but it's still fast-food after all. Would come again. Overall 8.5/10.

Good service good quality chicken they I liked it. This is my 1st time am happy I came and will be back

The chicken was not crispy. The service and ambience of the place is good but the chicken us average
