Cravings were definitely satisfied here! I ordered the slider combo with a side of their cheese sticks. I will say it took some time to be ready but it was well worth it. The food was still warm and cheese was nice and stringy. Perfect cheese pull! This location has seating inside and outdoor with plenty of parking. I recommend!
I love Dave's! The tenders, the sliders, the fries they always hit. Today was no exception. The flavor, quality, and taste were 10/10. The inside was buzzing with nearly every table taken. Where they fell short today was on service. I'm not sure if they were understaffed but the wait time was over 35 minutes. DoorDash and Ubereats drivers were equally as frustrated waiting for food to come out. Once ready it was perfection.....
It's been years since I had Dave's hot chicken, but recently I decided to try it out again. I ordered for pickup and it said it would take about 15 minutes. It did end up taking around 35 minutes since they were backed up. I ordered the slider combo that brings two sliders and fries! The hot wasn't hot compared to other hot chicken places. However it was very crunchy, juicy and flavorful! I will say I appreciate the amount of pickles they add to the sliders as they really up the taste! The fries were well seasoned & crunchy! Everything paired perfectly with their sauce and honey. Please keep in mind this location is surrounded by other restaurants and parking can be a bit hectic!
Pretty solid chicken. We got a 'slider' and tender meal. Fries were good, chicken was pretty tasty. The 'slider' is a sandwich, so that's a bit confusing when ordering. Smaller than what you get at another fast food chicken spot's sandwich, but decent, just the same. They also have a mini slider deal that I am guessing are true sliders. Service was very friendly. The place is somewhat stark, concrete and graffiti art all over. Tables didn't look clean and we asked for a wipedown. She told us they just look that way but did wipe ours down. It felt better, but still... Would definitely return.
Came here as a party of two on a Saturday around 1PM. It was pretty busy. We ordered at the kiosk. The ambience was definitely fast casual. As far as service goes it was average to slow. It definitely was not quick. I ordered the single two tenders in hot. I think the ratio of breading to chicken was pretty good, but not perfect. The chicken is more important than the breading, however the breading holds the flavor. The chicken was breaded and moist, as well as properly spiced. I love pickles, so those are always a nice touch. The bread is unnecessary to eat however, I understand its purpose, with fried food, of course. For the price, it's an above average meal, when comparing to other chicken shops like Chick-fil-A. One thing I wish Dave's would change is, getting rid of American cheese, because it's just so gross.
If you're craving juicy fried chicken, look no further . I 'm a wimp when it comes to spicy so I usually order mild level and it's the perfect level of spice. My go to is the two slider combo . Comes with tasty crinkle cut fries and pickle. The breast meat was so tender and juicy. Definitely cooked to order. Also it's a dry rub hot chicken, so don't expect it to be the same in style as Nashville hot chicken. They add purple cabbage and pickles which compliments the product as a whole by giving you the freshness and crunch. Food and service here is always good. The interior is nice and clean.
Ill say the same thing for all Dave's Chickens, when the expansion happened the taste changed. I don't know if it is just watered down but I used to go to the original location and that was the best. Anyway a little mad they gave my order to someone else else after I waited but they did what they could to try to fix it with a little somethin. To me this was the only place I would eat at in this whole shopping center.
Haven't been to Dave's hot chicken in almost 3 years and decided to go here with some friends to try it again after so long. Went to the Burbank location and it was quite busy which is interesting because they usually aren't that busy but then again this was 2-3 years ago and maybe times have changed. I heard about them releasing mozzarella sticks but it was sold out which was a shame. I ended up getting a tender combo one hot and one medium with cheese fries and a small drink. Got my order and was Kind of disappointed with my fries. I got so little for what I paid for not to mention when I first bit into it it tasted a bit stale like it sat there for awhile. It was quite disappointing. Tried my tenders, I went for the medium it was ok, some parts of it were burned and not seasoned properly. Went for the hot and it was also poorly seasoned and parts of it were burned. I remember they used to give 5 pickles but I only had 3 which is kind of lame as I love pickles! Wanted to get a drink but as soon as I sat down and waited for my order some guy went up and put an out of order sign on the machine. I tried to get some type of exchange for my drink with a bottled water at least but it wasn't allowed and the funny thing is my friend got a bottled coke for his replacement and bottled Dr Pepper as they also ordered fountain drinks and they didn't have to pay they were just given and some people too also like I saw lady ask for water because she couldn't get water as the machine was "out of order" and she got one just fine and I didn't see her pull out her wallet or anything but I was tol to do the whole process and reorder just for a bottle of water? That doesn't really make sense and kind of dumb too which was slightly annoying. Anyways, our table was one of a few that were dirty but the least dirty (no sauce smeared on table and fry bits and drink puddles like some vacant ones) but it did have chicken crumbs and left over. The ambiance was cool I like the art and music but it doesn't justify nor help the fact that the portion of fries were small and stale for what I've paid for, less pickles given, I was denied a drink swap when others were allowed to freely my chicken was poorly seasoned and slightly burned. I think the only good experience I had was the side of ranch which by the way I'm surprised they even have that. I think overly my experience went poorly at this location. I don't think I'd want to return here maybe I'll go to another location to see if will fair better but overall not the Dave's hot chicken I remember from the parking lot days in Hollywood it's unfortunately a shadow of its former self.. For me, I give it a 1 star rating.
Disgusting!!!! You go inside there is a horrible smell that we couldn't stand and decided to go and sit outside. Places the order and once we got it there was 2 strands of copper/orange hair on our food. I immediately went and returned it. The 2 ladies at the counter looked at each other and smiled, no apologies, nothing, and the older one called Angel, who was I guess a manager to come and help. He refunded and apologized and wanted to replace our food and I said no and walked away. Inside was a mess. The napkin dispenser was empty, trash bin was overfilled inside the store and water or left over of the drinks from the cups inside the trash covered the floor and went under one of the tables. Never ever going back to this location.
I always DoorDash from here & they always forget to sub my fries to Mac & cheese. Do better & get employees that can read
The best chicken I've ever had. Dave does some of the best work weve ever seen. The nice lady at the front was named Jahiara and she was very cool and awesome. Coming here made my day, would 100% recommend.
My first time trying DHC. This location was the food area of Empire Center. Plenty of parking. Tables and counter seating inside. You can order via the kiosks or at the counter. It started to get busy after my order and it took a little longer than I would have like to wait but the food was decent. You can chose how spicy you want your food and I just tried medium this time. Next time I'll try it a little spicer. There's an also a cool story behind DHC which they post on the wall. read more

I have been passing by this location for a long time. I finally decided to give it a try. Ordering is in person ,kiosks and online. This location has a lot of DoorDash, Uber Eats orders which makes the wait time longer. I placed an order using the kiosks and had to wait for almost 25 minutes for my order. Next time I will place an online order to avoid the wait. Food was amazing. I don't eat spicy food so it was great that they had mild options too. System gives you option to pick if you want mild, medium or hot which is great. I was hesitant to go because I thought everything would be too spicy, but glad that I went and got some yummy food. This location is clean and well maintained. There is both dine in and outdoor seating area available. read more

From a Sunday before 7pm dinner rush. Great seasoning. Medium has a slight kick to it, nothing crazy. Ordered the nuggets with fries $10. Crunchy fries with its own yummy seasoning. It also comes with toast and pickles. The spread tastes like ketchup and mayo. Another condiment good to pair with is honey. Parking is tricky as it is competitive with other businesses Two bathrooms with a code needed Order at cash register or two kiosk Casual indoor seating read more

this is my first time coming to Dave's hot chicken in the empire center that is located in burbank. i was craving a chicken sandwich with some coleslaw inside and since i was already shopping in the empire center I decided to give this place a try. I would have to say that the photos Dave's chicken advertises is false advertising cause the food comes out looking nothing like the photos they promote. As you can see in MY photo, this is what you ACTUALLY get. i mean.. where is my coleslaw? the cook put like 4 cabbages and called it a day. the sauce was very little. just 2 pickles in the sandwich, some pickles on the side & that's it. i do have to say the chicken was nicely cooked and seasoned well, which is why i gave 2 stars. the fries were nicely seasoned and cooked. their blueberry slushee is good. the ordering process was quick. waiting for the food does take some time. i wouldn't come back to this location. read more

One of the better Daves that's out there. The chicken was freshly made, it was juicy, it was tender and it tasted great. The lady at the register was very nice and helpful. The ambiance was great. Some of the Dave's locations have fallen off but glad to see some still care. Good spot to check out. read more

Stopped by with my son to buy an early dinner to go. I almost never eat food like this but for some reason I was craving it so we got the slider with fries. I got medium heat and it wasn't spicy at all. It was flavorful and had a crispy skin. It tasted good. Dave's is probably the best Nashville style chicken place in Southern California. It's always busy and now they are opening new locations all around the country. Customer service was ok, could have been more friendlier but lately it's hard to find that. This location is convenient cause it has a lot of parking space, it has indoor and outdoor seating. Cool artwork on walls. read more

I've gone to this location many many times can't even count in two hands. Unfortunately today was a different story. I placed an order on the self checkout machines and it's clear to me my order went through because my bank statements showed me I was charged. I told my boyfriend they are taking way longer than usual and his order came out before mine since we ordered separately. Point is it's now 20 minutes and he asked the young women about it and apparently my order didn't go through their system and i saw nothing was happening so I got up and spoke to her and told her which machine I ordered on and showed her my bank statement. At this point not sure if it's the supervisor or store manager but he was on the phone not sure what he was trying to get but he opened where the receipt comes out of (fyi never does it give me a receipt option idk if it just doesn't have paper or never works) and the screen just said pin so I patiently waited didn't say nothing stood there for a few minutes then decided to sit at this point my boyfriend was done eating and still nothing even after I showed them my bank statement and the time. After almost an hour she finally decided to offer me a meal with no charge. I was upset at this point I told her I'm okay and I won't take it. Point is I lost a bit over $20 and hadn't ate the whole day and was looking forward to it. read more

We apologize for any letdown during your visit. Your feedback matters…
I still remember my first time trying Dave's at their first brick and mortar store in Western. I was among the crazy people who lined up hours just to get my hands on their chicken sandwich. So glad they've added more stores nearby me. This particular store is just a little more than a mile from my house. I went here on the day they're giving away one slider per person. I ordered an extra slider because I know one won't be enough. I had them to go cuz the place was loud, messy, and very busy that day. I was really hungry so I devoured both sliders as soon as I got home. They were as good as expected. They never disappoint. Planning to revisit soon and I'm sure service and tidiness will be on point to earn five stars. read more

Food was delicious seasoned pretty well, we did an online order and a kiosk order both was easy to pick up and made in good time. Lady at the counter was really nice and friendly. Decent amount of seating for parties of 4 also have seating out side. Music was perfect and for the most part really clean. Only thing I wish was different is they added more lucky charms to the "loaded" cup it was more ice cream than anything. read more
