About Dave's Hot Chicken

Had to give it a try. Long lines since it's opening week. Our server was very friendly and noticed my military id. Thanked me for my service abd gave me a discount. Iwas surprised and thankful. The chicken was hot, juicy and flavorable. I thought it was a bit to salty, but the "hot" level was just right with an underlying hint of sweetness. The extra hot still wasn't baf, so might have to try the reaper level. The fries had a great crispness to them which I prefer. With the side of Pickle chips made a nice lunch. To me, top three chicken places in GFK, Varsity Ice and Pizza Ranch are the others. Since everything is cooked ymto order, you might wait a bit for your food. Not a lot of seating, so you may need to stand for awhile. Tables and counter seating along the window. My only drawback w

Food was AMAZING! It’s my first time trying Dave’s Hot Chicken so I was definitely impressed. Atmosphere and the art is so cool! HOWEVER tho, why is it a MEAL when there’s NO DRINK in it?🥲 Food was already pricey enough and I was highly surprised we have to separately buy two drinks that cost us $5+.

Great chicken, great service, took a bit to get our food, but there was a dozen people in front of us. They didn't lie about "extra hot", and I love them for it. I'm sick of chain restaurants saying spicy, but isn't. Dave's has legit Hot Chicken.

Excellent experience at Dave's Hot Chicken. A little bit of a wait but they have only been open for 2 weeks so that was expected. We got the Top Loaded Fries and a #2 meal. Delicious!

★★★★★ 5.0 Ramtin Kardan · Nov 2025

We love Dave’s hot chicken. It is so tender, crunchy, and juicy all at the same time. The location just opened recently, so it is expected to be more crowded in the beginning. Be prepared for a longer wait in the peak hours.
