    First time trying this place out. Was not disappointed at all! Chicken was perfectly cooked and seasoned and hot level was perfect.
    Nathalie A.

    The food was delicious! Perfect spice and crisp to the fries. And 1 slider alone was very filling. Also, gotta love fountain drinks!

    The place has a very good vibe and the staff was very nice and helpful. The food was very delicious very juicy and the flavors are on point. I don't really like dry rub but this one it was chef's kiss first time trying this out and I'm glad I did worth the money

    Chicken Sandwich (Hot) w/fries
    Joshua C.

    First time at Dave's Hot Chicken. I ordered the Chicken Sandwich and w/fries and drink $14. Chicken Sandwich 4 out of 5. The "hot" spice didn't disappoint. Good flavor and got my nose running. Add the coleslaw and pickles to the sandwich, you will need it when you run out of chicken to go with the bread. Fries 4 out of 5. Seasoned well and crispy. I ordered a side of cheese sauce in case, but it wasn't necessary. The cheese sauce was meh. The fries alone were delicious. Side of pickles were outstanding! Restaurant was clean, but small. If you like to eat outside it's perfect unless you live in a desert. Oh ya El Paso is a desert! There are only 2 tables inside. Over 12 metal tables outside and no shade. Krystal my server (order taker) was outstanding, her customer service A++. Manager/Supervisor F- instead of just standing there over Krystal's shoulder you could have greeted or even helped in the back to expedite orders (15+ mins) with only one person in front of me. There were at least 7 other people waiting after I got there just standing around waiting for their order. For that I could only give 3 star. If you are pressed for time, definitely order ahead at least 15mins. Don't be afraid to get in the trenches with your employees management, slap an awning outside and it might be the go to chicken spot!

    Sliders

    So for the price, I'm gonna find it hard for me to drive out there just to go again. At $22, each was a bit wild. Aside from that, it was good. Chicken had a lot of flavor, was juicy, and crispy. We all got medium heat sliders with cheese fries. I got a tender with the Reaper spice. They make you sign a waiver. I'm no rookie to heat, I love my spice and eating reapers or scorpion peppers, but this was like the devil violated my mouth. I think it's a mix of the peper powder and capsaicin extract. Almost ruined my day. There was a decent line when we arrived, but it moved fast, and service was good. It's small inside and only offered two tables and a bar like table. Mainly outdoor patio seating. Again, good food, just the price was harder to swallow than the reaper chicken.

    Very delicious chicken!! I was excited to see how their chicken spicyness had 7 levels and their hottest level called Reaper requires customers to sign a waiver when they order it. That's some serious stuff. The lady supervising the line at the door entrance claimed the Very Hot level which is one below Reaper burned her tongue. As one would expect with any grand opening, a line was out the door over this hyped up chicken. After waiting 2.5 hours, finally got an order of one tender and one slider with an additional side of mac and cheese. I would say the wait was not worth the food but it was all excellent for any other given day once the crowd starts clearing up more. The mac and cheese was delicious as well. I can't wait to try their milkshake next time! The place is very fun and takes on the ambiance of Hollywood since that's its place of origin.

    Sliders with fries
    Eddie G.

    Called in my order since it's been nonstop lines outside. Tried the hot sliders with extra Dave's sauce. Rear was ready in 20 minutes and headed straight the pick up counter where it was waiting for me. The dining room seemed a lil tight so I took it home. They were delish! The heat level wasn't bad but it was kinda hot. They were actually huge pieces of chicken, now that I know how big they are I'll get the one slider instead. Not bad at all.

    Dave's hot chicken from the outside
    Henry M.

    3.5 stars is the more accurate rating. My first ever experience of Dave's and I was over the moon excited for this one. What I did like was a few things. The customer service was fine, the cashier was very sweet and polite. The place was covered in cool art that had the feel for Texas and El Paso. The ambience was youthful and summer vibes like. We tried the nuggets, sliders and classic strips. The nuggets were AMAZING. Flavorful, juicy and perfect in every bite. Honestly the highlight of the experience. The strips were the disappointment, they were really dry and lacked flavor and just packed spice. The sliders were no different, the bread was stale and tasted it had been sitting outside for a while. The pickles and slaw were fine, however the slider had a small drizzle of Dave's sauce which was slightly annoying. Everything tasted half assed and rushed besides the nuggets.

    My son has had this address on our dry erase board forever. So today I decided to go try them…read more First off staff super friendly and I was only picking up. Imagine if you eat in. I ordered 2 of the Triple flavor wings. The flavors were Honey Garlic 5 stars the crunch with the sweet to die for. Soy Garlic not my fav but my husband loved them,Gangnam style ohlala,Galbi my son went goo goo for Galbi. The Hot Spicy were strictly for my husband a hot food addict,he ate them things like they were going out of style while the tears ran down his face Last but not least we ordered the Secret Sauce mmm mmm good. As a family we have never been so pleased with one spot so much. A must have if you like Korean Fried Wings Bae Bae hit this spot up I'm going to pitch a tent outside see you there

    Great first visit to a familiar chicken shack…read more We dropped by after Noah's game for a snack. At 1100am, this place was just picking up, but it was a nice sports bar setup. There were about four big screen TVs over the bar, and a long bar with chairs towards the front. There were a few Asian beers on tap and all the flavors of jinro so I in the fridge. Natalya T was a very nice server. She greeted and seated us, she took our drink and food order, and check on us often. She actually made my baldok ramen in the self serve ramen machine. I ordered a ramen, the 8 pc boneless, rice, and pickled radish. It was all delicious. We had a great time, and great server to go along with our Korean BBQ chicken.
