Great atmosphere! I went during 12 pm, and it wasn’t too busy. It was my first time and let’s say i will be coming back and also shoutout to Ann who was very nice and helpful!

The foods was hot and amazing! The special Dave’s sauce is the best! The manager came to our table and greeted us and was very friendly and helpful. He explained how the fryer system is cleaned regularly and that is how their chicken is so crispy and fresh!

I absolutely love Dave’s hot chicken! I’d always wanted to go to one, but they didn’t Have a location in Alabama where I grew up. When I moved to Lexington, this is one of the first places I went and it definitely did not disappoint! I don’t know if he’s a manager or what but there’s a man named Justin who works there He is always super friendly, very willing to help and always checks up on the customers even though he doesn’t have to. The chicken quality is always perfect and the tenders are very huge! Everything on the menu is very good. I always go with the classic two tenders and fries. I usually opt for the medium or hot Flavoring on the Chicken and the Dave’s sauce they give you is GREAT!
