Great chicken sandwich and sides. Order 1 spice level higher than you think you want bc they’re a bit more mild than you’d expect. Crinkle fries are glorious. Mac and cheese is 👏 excellent 👏 other chicken chains phone in the Mac and give you microwaved slop. That’s is NOT the case here. Great Wall art and fast service.

I was very pleased with my first experience here. The servers were nice and the chicken 🍗 was delicious, though I wish there was a bit more distinction between the different spice 🌶️ levels. The portion sizes were pretty big and I was full after the meal. Prices 💰 were also reasonable, which is hard to find in this day and age!

This was my first time visiting Dave’s Hot Chicken, and it definitely won’t be my last. I stopped in right before closing, and even though the team was clearly in the middle of cleaning up for the night, I never once felt rushed or unwelcome. Tifani, Paula and Jackie were incredibly kind and patient. They took the time to walk me through the menu, offered great recommendations, and made sure I felt confident about my order. That level of service, especially at the end of a long shift, really stood out to me. The food was fresh, flavorful, and exactly what I was hoping for. You can tell they care about both the quality of the food and the customer experience. Huge thank you to Tifani, Paula and Jackie for turning a late-night stop into such a positive first impression. Highly recommend.

The chicken was delicious — crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside, with a perfectly balanced batter. Above all, the staff were friendly and explained everything clearly, which made the experience feel warm and comfortable.
