    This place is delicious! Clean, bright , and very spacious with outdoor seating as well. You can choose how spicy you want your chicken. I got the extra hot and it was just right! The service was excellent and welcoming! A must try!

    The thing that sticks out most about this place is the customer service! All of the ladies working at the front counter were very polite and courteous. My order was taken promptly and everything was exactly how I asked, both the fries and the chicken is crunchy, and I ordered the medium heat which is perfect.

    My first time here and Diego was very helpful! He explained everything and even brought us our food! I got the #2(1 hot and 1 extra hot) and my husband got the #3(mild). Good amount of food for the price. The place was nice and clean! 10/10 will come again!

    Dave's Hot Chicken is an absolute must visit if you're in the area and are wanting to find the best chicken sandwich. The spice levels are great, and the customer service is always on point. Whenever I visit Dave's Hot Chicken, I always order the Dave's #2 to share with Jordan. It's usually enough for the both of us, so portion sizes are pretty great. My only complaint is that the spice levels are always off, but as long as you try Hot+, you'll be fine. The customer service is definitely a plus here as well. The staff members I've interacted with have all been so kind and generous. It's definitely an A+ from me! Overall, I will always come back to this location. The food and customer service are the reasons why!

    I was searching for a place to have lunch when I ended up at this rather upscale strip mall area that had many restaurants. Dave's Hot Chicken sounded unique compared to the other eateries in the area so I decided to give it a try. The interior has a contemporary look, with tables spread throughout, in addition to outdoor seating. Service is friendly and prompt. The menu was rather simple: Chicken tenders, either alone or in a slider. The chicken could be spiced up in different levels. I ordered a slider and tender combo, which comes with fries, toast and a drink, in addition to another tender. I chose the spiciness of "hot" since I generally prefer my food on the spicier end. The prices are a bit higher than my expectations, but the meal did deliver appropriate value. Initially, only a part of my meal came out but the server quickly realized that I had ordered an extra tender, and that came out shortly after. The meal is certainly a hearty one, with a slider, tender, fries, toast, and a drink. There is a sauce, ketchup, honey, and pickles as condiments. The slider was tasty and consists of a chicken tender with coleslaw in a bun. Cheese was extra. "Hot" was actually spicier than I thought, and fortunately drink refills are available. It may be a good idea to select one degree lower than your normal spiciness tolerance! The fries are a crinkle cut type and nothing extraordinary, as was the sliced bread. They serve Coca Cola products at Dave's Hot Chicken. Overall, I had a wonderful lunch at Dave's Hot Chicken, and this is certainly a place I would like to return to the next time I am in the area!

    The place was cool inside. Menu seemed a little limited but got the slider. I have hear a lot of good things about the place. It was just ok for me. Lots of food which was a plus but seemed average. Service was good and place was clean so still rated a 4.

    #3 Hot Slider and Extra Hot Tender
    Jorena L.

    So excited to try this place because I'm a big fan of Nashville hot chicken! The menu is very simple - only sliders and tenders. The slider is the size of a regular sandwich. However, the prices are quite high. Big pieces of chicken that were very juicy. Hot spice level was just right for me. Had a good heat and kick but wasn't unbearable. Tried the extra hot too, and it ruined the flavor. Love adding the honey for a sweet and spicy balance. The fries were so crispy and light too! I really dunked them in the Dave's sauce lol. Overall I really enjoyed my meal but it's just a bit expensive.

    Of course after hearing about this place I had to try it. And let me just say, it's an Instagram sensation for a reason. It's like zaxby's meets Hattie B's (if you know you know) I love eating it with the honey it gives you that sweet heat and everything is so flavorful. Highly recommend!

    The chicken was decent, nice employees, and good sauce. The Mac And Cheese was very watery and overall wasn't good, it's like $3 for hospital food looking Mac and cheese. More watery than than H2O itself. Would not recommend getting the Mac and cheese at all. The fries were the most appealing thing in the meal, not good, but not bad. They were nicely seasoned, and had a good crispy taste. Ended up spending $70, which is way too much for 3 meals. I could've just went to Raisin' Canes and got something similar for a cheaper price. As you're paying, you're prompted for a tip, which I found weird. Considering that I walk up to the counter to order and have to walk back to the counter to pick the food when my number is called. Overall a 2.7/10. Fries: 10/10 Chicken: 6/10 Mac And Cheese: 2.5/10 Sauce: 5/10 Service: 9/10 I'm not a food critic, but this needs SOME improvement.

    Ruby B.

    First time here, never herd of it before but we didn't know what to eat. The place is pretty cool inside, industrial modern graffiti style I loved it. Food was good is 2 good size tenders with big fries and amazing pickles. And sort of a canes sauce. My husband thinks is just like canes except the bread is missing the butter. Service was good too, nice people clean inside. We order one no spice and one spice #1 we preferred the no spice. It was lots of powder with a sweet taste we didn't care too much for.

    My first try, and we went on 4/20 to catch a munchies discount!…read more We were happy with the cost, that's for sure. This particular spot is a deli sandwich place; they do have some standout choices, but I was craving tuna, so I ordered their Pacific Blue (Tuna Melt). Loved that they toasted the buns; it was good but didn't wow me. They skimped on the cheese and didn't add the jalapeños I requested. Service was incredibly slow, but there was a huge rush-hour crowd, so I'll overlook it. All in all, the theme is cool. Loved that they had vendors and music available the day we went; it gave us an opportunity to have something to do while we waited. I did spot board games, but naturally didn't think we'd need them. The goo ball was overly buttery and definitely had peanut butter. It was good for the first couple of bites but I quickly tossed it afterward once it became too much. If a deli is your thing, give it a try. I'm sure on any other given day they'd be better at delivering a sandwich with everything.

The menu was quite different and (again) I should have studied up on yelp to see the offerings before going. It took me a minute to read through the menu to decide what I wanted. The closest I saw to an Italian (didn't see La Canna) was the 5-0 so I cut the bacon and it was pretty good. My husband got the G-13 and really liked it. What surprised us was finding a full bar inside the sub shop! (A full bar with Blanton's!) And they're open until midnight! The manager came over and talked to us for a while. She was super nice and told us all about the chain and that location. They have parking out back and you have to scan a QR code the when you go inside to order you can validate for free parking with their QR code inside. Or you can just find street parking right behind the lot. We left happy with full tummies. We will go back!

We ordered the mexcrunch wrap and the buffalo chicken wrap. I like how the salads can be made into wraps, which provides more options. I think we both preferred the mexcrunch, simply due to the crunchy texture. I think both wraps would have been better if we could've had the sauce on the side, because the wraps got soggy pretty quickly. The side pasta salad was surprisingly really good, and I see why they serve it. Overall, I'd definitely go back here for a healthy lunch option.

    Galligaskin's has been making Boston style subs in Fort Worth longer than most of us have been…read morealive, and they'll tell you so, proudly and rightfully. The oldest sub shop in Texas is not a title you stumble into, and one visit makes it clear they've earned it. First, the parking situation, because someone has to say it. The spots up front are scarce and competitive. Don't give up, there's additional parking in the back with its own entrance. File that away before you go, or you'll spend ten minutes circling a strip that has not gotten larger since the 1970s. And speaking of the 1970s, the interior leans fully into its vintage identity. Small, dark, and unapologetically retro, it feels like a sub shop that missed the memo on modern restaurant design and decided it didn't care. Honestly, respect. Now, the subs. Galligaskin's cuts their own meat and cheese in house and bakes their rolls fresh daily, which is the kind of thing that sounds like marketing until you take a bite and realize it actually matters. The roast beef and cheese, loaded with toppings, is a proper sandwich. The house-made Galli Oil and pickled pepper finish that goes on every sub is the secret weapon - not spicy, just deeply flavorful, the thing that makes each bite a little better than the last. We also tried the burger, which came as a genuine surprise. A sub shop doing a burger well feels like it shouldn't work, but here we are, soft bun, flavorful patty, no notes. For sides, the Tater Tots are the undisputed champion of the table. Crispy shell, fluffy interior, the ideal tot. The fried okra was a strong runner-up, well breaded and served with ranch. The French fries, however, were a swing and a miss. They looked the part, golden, fresh cut, promising - and then arrived soggy. A limp fry is a tragedy in any zip code, and these were no exception. No one wants a sad potato. Order the tots. Skip the fries. You've been warned. Galligaskin's in the real deal, a Fort Worth original that's still earning its reputation one fresh-baked roll at a time. One last night: they're closed on Sundays, so plan accordingly. A cruel fact to discover in the parking lot.

The meat was ok but overall the sandwich was TOO DRY. The relish they added on the sandwich was supposed to combat this issue but it didn't help. I really think they need to add some more sauce on the bread before adding the meat... maybe some honey mustard? I have tried Galligaskin's twice and both times the sandwich was too dry for my liking.
