Their chicken is sooooo good! I like this better than canes for sure, but the canes sauce is a bit better. This location is big and has a huge outdoor seating. They seem fairly quick with their orders and the staff is friendly. I get med spicy bc the very spicy just tastes bitter and not spicy. I always get the fries with cheese. So yummy! It could be a little cleaner inside, but other than that, foods great and nice workers.

Me and my 17 year old son love Dave's hot chicken.! I love the music they play and the atmosphere is awesome. Love the graffiti walls. It is worth the way 😉

Excellent, juicy hot chicken sandwiches & fries. Super clean. They do take a while to get our food out but there were lots of people ordering and totally worth the wait. We got Dave's order #2.

Date of visit: 9/28/25 at 4pm Mom inquired about DHC, I praised the place for great chicken strips/tenders due to the size of the strips. Well worth it. Mom found.a table and I went to counter to place order. The employee was very friendly but in a weird way, couldn't figure out why until I didn't tip and the demeanor changed. Just another employee working for a tip. I order #2 2 chicken sandwiches and fries, looks like they took one strip and cut it in half, as the strips didn't make it pass the bun. Mom had #3 and what I was use to seeing large tendors/strips as I was expecting. Mom made comment "did they put chicken on yours" I just smiled. I will not return to DHC. It's not my responsibility to pay for your wages. Spent $37 that should be enough. Fast food and this place is fast food, it's pathetic a tip is even expected.

Outstanding food, outstanding customer service—just absolutely OUTSTANDING! This location is very clean and well kept. Jessica, the employee working at the counter, was very helpful considering it was our first visit, and also very friendly. Our food came out within minutes of placing our order—it looked amazing and tasted even better! Hot, delicious and full of flavor. Whatever seasoning they use—it’s on point! And the sauce is the perfect way to cool it down. We noticed that when Jessica was not taking orders at the counter, she always had a broom in hand and was cleaning up the restaurant. We loved seeing this! It’s so rare that you actually see employees these days taking pride in their work and keeping the restaurant clean, rather than just standing around on their phones. Great work, Jessica! We look forward to our next visit!

We have been excited for this location to open up. It was definitely worth the wait. The chicken was excellent. The breading was perfectly crunchy. The seasoning is delicious and pairs perfectly with the sauce. The fries are great too, lightly seasoned. Will definitely be back for more!

Great classic Dave’s spot! Same great taste.. Same great decor.. Same great Dave’s. Hot chicken at its best. The fries were seasoned well and had excellent flavor. Whenever you see a Dave’s Hot Chicken in your area, count yourself lucky! There are many variations and competitors, but only one real Hot Chicken King.

Ever since this place was opened my family and I started coming here. We are a frequent visitors. At the beginning, their food was great and the service was ok. Unfortunately, since past 2 months, their chicken slices are getting smaller and messy day by day. On top of that, their service is dropping to the ground. The employees lack the proper manners to interact with the customers. Only this week I visited this Dave hot chicken 3 times and unfortunately, every time my order had a problem and was prepared in a messy way. Finally today, when I talked with them, I met with the most unprofessional person. I wasn’t even allowed to talk with the manager. My whole family liked this place that’s why we were ignoring the problems with our orders until today. Most of the times, I used to think that the customers turn into karen but today I found out that behind most of the Karen customers there is a Karen cashier/ employee. I feel bad for the owner that doesn’t know how his employees are taking care of the business. I have noticed that the employees don’t care about the business because it’s not their own but they have forgotten that if this place is closed, they will lose their job and have to struggle to find another one. We have decided not to come to this place anymore, at least not until they learn how to do proper business.
