This was my first experience at DHC, and the food did not disappoint. This place was Uber busy! I ordered the two sliders Comboand a side of macaroni and cheese And a fruity pebbles topped milkshake (It was a big back moment for sure). Everything was cooked perfectly and seasoned well, and my order was correct. The manager was friendly and even offered me a bandana (cause I wanted one), but they were out. I took off one star only because service was a little slow taking our food a little over 9 minutes to come out. I know whoever was cooking, was back there wishing he had extra hands because this place was a revolving door. The only other “complaint” I have, is I would have loved to have more coleslaw on my sandwich That is totally a personal preference though. I will come back again.

Found Dave’s by chance while looking for somewhere open during day two of the Charlotte snowstorm. First time here, and it definitely won’t be my last. Amazing food and even more amazing staff. Thank you Luiz and your employees for a great experience today!

Each time I have gone to Dave’s hot chicken as a DoorDasher, I have appreciated how quickly I was greeted and given my customer’s food. One employee, who also had a twin sister who worked at the same Dave’s hot chicken, told me I looked exactly like her history teacher only a lot younger. LOL! The atmosphere is pleasant, and each of the workers have been very attentive. This led me to decide that I was going to finally purchase something during one of my Door Dashings. I got a combination of one slider, one tender along with fries and all of it was delicious. I enjoy hot food so I decided to get the extra hot level of spiciness and it was very good and the spiciness stayed with me for a good 30 minutes after I ate… a good indication that the heat of the spiciness and flavoring is going to

Excellent service. The employees are super kind and friendly. The chicken was pretty good as well. I got medium level heat and thought it was perfect. Highly recommend this place!

I opted for two sliders with no spice. I got all the topping on the side seeing as I'm a very picky. Needless to say, I added slaw and honey which is a game changer. I really enjoyed this spot. 2 sliders is a lot as I only could eat 1.
