This was my first time trying slim chickens. We had had one in Cincinnati, but I never made it…read morethere before it closed. I had the Tender mac & cheese bowl. They give you a decent amount, you will not leave hungry. The mac & cheese was really good, but I'm not very fond of their chicken after having it.

We opted for the drive-thru as we were still in our swimsuits but saw that the grounds were kept up…read moreand the parking lot was clean with lots of parking. The drive thru menu was clear with lots of food choices...chicken choices. The selections were very similar to other chicken restaurants, offering chicken tenders, chicken tender sandwiches, and salads. The person taking our order was friendly as we all just offered kids meals. There was minimum wait time before we were on our way with our meals. The chicken tenders were ok. We all tried each other's dipping sauce. The highlight I'd hand to say were the fries. They had just the right amount of salt and served hot and crispy.

The staff was friendly and the menu had a variety of options for everyone. The flavor is delicious and the portions were huge for the price. The plantains that came with the jerk chicken were so good that I almost went back up and ordered another side of more. My wife loved her chicken sandwich and was glad to see it was pulled chicken rather than a large chicken breast. The place was pretty busy when we stopped by but we didn't have to wait long at all. While this is a food truck, it's permanently in this spot and doesn't move. It's right on the main road through town so parking is available all over. Stop by and give them a shot because this is one of our favorites.

The food is fabulous!!! Chill vibes, fast service. Fresh salad(!!!) Definitely recommend!read more

Ordered the hot sandwich (base heat), chicken tenders and wings (mild heat)…read more Everything is freshly made. The sandwich was good, but I should have ordered the after burner because the base wasn't spicy at all. Tenders and wings are cooked well. I wasn't a fan of the sauce. I can't describe why, but it just didn't wow me (but it didn't gross me out either). Service was friendly. Seating at a table is tough.

This one bummed me out. I'm a huge fan of hot chicken, so I was really looking forward to trying…read morethis restaurant and the pics looked delicious. Unfortunately, I either tried it on a really off day or my taste buds just weren't in it. I tried the hot chicken tenders, but they were like chewing through pieces of steak that had been cooked too long. Very tough and dry. The sauce surprised me, but not in a bad way. It has a really sweet base coat and then hot top coat. At first I wasn't sure if I liked it or not, but I think I did. Haha. My husband had a sandwich and thought it was good; he didn't share a bite though. I really enjoyed their french fries, Which is slightly unusual for me to comment on. There was a powder dusting on something sprinkled on them, and it was really evenly dispersed and tasty. Maybe I'll try this place again and see if the main entree disappointment was a fluke. If so, I'll update then....

Service was good and the restaurant itself makes you wander from wall to wall with the "graffiti" based art work. Food was ready fairly quickly and was hot and fresh. The tenders and slider were done really well with an abundance of sauces and dips to try. I wasn't a fan of the mozzarella I found the breading aftertaste took away from the taste of the cheese. Next time maybe the Mac & Cheese and cauliflower.

It was my very first time visiting Dave's Hot Chicken. I have to say that I was quite impressed…read morewith the taste and quality of the chicken. The service was really good at this location. In all fairness, it had just opened for lunch so I don't know how it usually is when it's super busy. This was a dine-in experience. The graffiti art décor keeps it cool & casual. The ordering process is easier than other fast-casual restaurants that rely on a number placed at the table. Here, you're given a buzzer. I didn't have to wait too long for the shake. It was received right after the order was placed. I love the top loaded cereal ones! You get your choice of a vanilla, chocolate, or strawberry. I chose vanilla with fruity pebbles. Loved it! The hot chicken bites were crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. It's a very generous portion. These are bigger than bites. The medium spice wasn't spicy to me, and I don't have a high tolerance to heat. I don't know if it was toned down, or if they actually gave me mild. Either way, it was still very tasty. I'll order hot next time just for comparison. The crinkle-cut fries are automatically seasoned by default. I didn't realize it at the time, but there is an option to get them unseasoned. The meal comes with a slice of bread, pickles, and Dave's sauce for dipping. I'd get the same thing again, only I would split it with someone. I'm not sure if there's an option for a 5 bite meal. The price of the meal was high due to the addition of the shake, but the chicken portion makes up for that. Honestly though, the halal chicken price is pretty much on par with other restaurants that serve it with this designation. There will be more visits in the future. I'm looking forward to trying the sandwich next time.
