    2 slider meal

    Usually not a fan of "fast food" but this deserved a review. Fresh, well prepared and tasty. I can recommend this place

    I drove by Dave's hot chicken today and so glad I stopped in! This chicken is fire!! I had the 2 sliders medium heat with fries and they have hi-C lava burst slushies!! So good! The ambiance is awesome and the worker we had Jamal was awesome! Portions are huge also. Correction* this was the new Springfield location on Mohawk.

    Dave's Hot Chicken is my new chicken place. With customizable heat levels and genuinely good vegetarian options, this has become a go-to for me when I'm craving protein. While I am not vegetarian, one of the folks I live with is. I wish more chicken places had a cauliflower option like Dave's does, because it's so easy to get something for everyone in my house when we start getting that spicy craving. 5 words: Dave's Hot Chicken with honey. Just trust me on this one. This spicy, sweet, and perfectly crispy combo is easily addictive and will get you as hooked on Dave's as I've become. While I haven't eaten in a Dave's yet, only ordered take-out through a meal delivery app, they are always super quick and I get my food while the chicken is still hot and fresh. Give this place a shot!

    Dave's is one of those spots I usually only go to after being out for the night. They are one of the few places open late in Eugene and is super close to the popular college bars. I can't say how good the food is on a typical day but I do know that their hot tenders are so very scrumptious after consuming 4 shots of tequila and a few amfs. A group of friends and I came the other week around 1:30am and it was still extremely busy. This night we thought it would be best to order an entire platter of tenders and fries because we would save a few dollars and it was definitely one of our better ideas. Even though having an order so large so late must of been a hassle, the staff was so nice and accommodating.

    Very good tenders and fries. Excellent coating chicken tender and moist. Great to see new location in Springfield on Mohawk St. Went through drive thru it was very fast.

    took a decent amount of time to receive my food but oh well i can live with that and me and my buddy are patient. my only issue is that my chicken was damn near raw, and my strawberry milkshake tasted like straight foam. i won't be returning.

    Tried this chicken spot recently. The food was okay nothing special or memorable, just average. The service was good though, friendly and quick. I'd eat here again if it was convenient, but it's not something I'd go out of my way for or crave.

    Food and service was great this past week when we went in! Tried the mac and cheese for the first time and it was really bland honestly but the chicken was super good! Huge portions, tasty and perfectly cooked. Lots of tables around to sit.

    Food was fresh, lots of flavor, good portions and the staff were nice and helpful. I got the mild version it's perfect for me. Lots of seasoning but in the best way! Even the fries are seasoned!

    Wow....this place rocks. We've been hearing about Dave's Hot Chicken for a while now. Tonight, we decided to trek into town to try them out. I can say, We are 100% not disappointed. The chicken is cooked hot ( like, not spicy, just cooked hot) and the taste is to die for. I got two sliders (which are a very good size for being sliders) with hot and extra hot seasoning. I gotta stress, spicy foods to me taste mild(ish) at best, so be forewarned, it's possible the hot and extra hot are out of some peoples taste pallets). The Fries are delicious. My wife really enjoys her mild slider and tender (she could only eat half her meal). The music they were playing was good music. The decor is kind of like modern graffiti style. This is definitely a place to try if you've never had before. And grab the app and earn rewards to get free food!

I ordered a combo plate with the chicken over salad (instead of rice) and a side of baba ganoush that came with some pita pieces. The food was good, the baba ganoush was probably the best item out of my meal. It had a real nice smoky flavor. What caught me off guard was the chicken. It had curry seasoning. Not the regular mediterrean curry taste, but kinda like the red curry seasoning you buy at Trader Joe's taste. It was not expected, but I ended up accepting it and finished my meal because I was hungry. Price point was a bit higher to what the portion and quality of my meal was worth. But given the fact that it's one of the few places open on a federal holiday, there's no real other options to this type of cuisine here in Eugene, and costs of owning a business in a food truck, I get it. I'll try again and get the gyro next time. Will update then.

During 08/04/2026 lunch with a friend, also out of town & ate here for the first time, between 12:30-2:30pm, my friend ordered chicken teriyaki. She said she liked it; portion was big enough that she took half of it home. I didn't look for the price. I ordered two appetizers for us: -Golden Squash: I get this every single time that how good & how much I love it. I still enjoyed it even though the breading was a bit burnt so made the squash texture dried. -Crab Rangoon $12: I like how they wrapped their better than most places. -Papaya Salad, no protein: a bit salty for this visit but still refreshing for such hot weather day. My total was $40, couldn't remember exact price for Golden Squash & Papaya Salad since I didn't ask for the recipe. L shape inside sitting & spacious. Their own parking lot is about 10 cars.

I came here on a Sunday afternoon and the restaurant was bustling. We got seated right away at a booth with a window view. My waitress was an older Asian lady. She was very nice, not too talkative, but she was on top of her things. I was craving soup and decided on the highly recommended tom kha with tofu. To start, we had thai tea, thai coffee and the shrimp triangle. For our entrees, we decided on the pad see eu (they spell it pad se eu here), panang curry. The shrimp triangles were very yummy. Definitely get those. The thai tea and coffee was good, but just a little watered. I expected the taste to last in my mouth for a little bit. But it didn't. For the soup, I was excited to taste the soup! It smelled really good and it was boiling hot. My thought after my first sip of Tom Kha was, ok, this is good, they got it, but it just wasn't quite there. I couldn't pinpoint what was missing. Then I figured out that they didn't use full coconut milk. It was just a little bit and it was the lighter version. How disappointing! I wanted the robust tang, spice and coconut like how I have at home. The entrees made me sad. I really, really wanted to love it. The panang curry should be rich, thick and creamy. Instead it was soupy. I was really expecting and wanting the curry to stick to my rice, but instead it made soupy curry rice. My daughter pointed out that the curry and the tom kha soup was the same color and consistency. I didn't want to believe, but I think they used the same base and added the appropriate toppingss and seasonings to make a soup and a curry. My saddest dish was my last one that came out. It was the pad se eu. The wide rice noodles was wet and in broken pieces. I'm Asian and I'm from Vegas via Hawaii which means we have a lot of Asian cuisines, we know our food and have friends who work in high end Thai restaurants. (Think Lotus of Siam) When rice noodles break into smaller pieces, it means the noodles are probably not fresh and got hard. To soften, the cook used extra water and the heat was not high enough to cook, so it stuck to pan, making the cook mix it around more...broken wet noodles that doesn't brown. Overall, I really wanted to love this place. It has potential. Maybe it was an off day but on that day I went, it didn't give me the wow I expected. Most of the items has the taste on point. Please don't water down the curry or use lower fat coconut cream. I'm not used to having regular brocolli in thai food either, but I guess this is what Eugene likes or what we can get. And people, share your food! Thai food is family style! Share it! Put it in the middle of the table and let the other person have some! I was people watching around my table and my table was the only one that didn't have our own entree per person. lol
