Wow! This is the best chicken sandwich I’ve ever had! I also love that you can adjust the level of spiciness. With coleslaw and pickles inside the burger, it stays refreshing until the very last bite. The brioche bun is soft and delicious too. The store’s interior is bright, filled with fun and colorful graffiti that creates a lively, cheerful vibe. There are plenty of tables, so you can sit comfortably and enjoy your meal. Even as I’m writing this, I’m craving it again! Highly recommend!

I love the chicken, so tender in the inside and crispy on the outside. I usually get the mild and that’s plenty hot for me. My husband ordered the medium and he thought it was just right for hotness. The milkshakes are good. We like plain fries and those are crispy. Staff has always been friendly. We go about once a month. I feel that Food opinions are personal for each individual so go give it a try!!!

First time here. Absolutely delicious, we will definitely be back! The chicken is phenomenal. The shakes are also a must-try. Friendly & attentive customer service (shoutout Charles!).

I don't like the loaded fries, the chicken was great, crispy and moist, but the coleslaw made the fries mushy, and it was just too salty. I got medium but I couldn't even tell it was supposed to be spicy, it didn't even make my lips worm or tingle.

I finally got to try this place! I ordered the Dave’s #2, and it came with two sliders and fries. The sliders were pretty big, with fresh buns and fries. One slider is enough for one person. I also ordered the top-loaded Oreo shake, and it’s probably one of the best Oreo shakes I’ve ever had. It was nice and clean, and the atmosphere was great. Aman, I think her name was, was really good. She was patient, welcoming, and helpful since it was my first time there. Overall, it was a great experience.
