    First time here @ this location on S Eastern Ave. Ordered the med heat chicken slider w/cheese and trying out the mozzarella sticks. Great quick bite dinning area is in need of some sunshades for these hot days burning up next to this window. Tip culture definitely getting out of hand for pick up and dining in with no table service imo. 6172026 GK

    This was my first time visiting Dave's Hot Chicken, and unfortunately, it wasn't a great experience. When I walked in, there was no line and an employee was standing at the front counter and no one mentioned that the self-order kiosk was unreliable. After spending time placing my order, I received an error message. When I went to the counter, the employee simply said the kiosk "sometimes works and sometimes doesn't." It would have been helpful to know that before I wasted my time using it. After placing my order with the cashier, I wasn't asked if I wanted any sauces or a drink. Since it was my first visit, I wasn't familiar with the ordering process, so I assumed those questions would be asked. We waited about 20 minutes for our food, and when it arrived, part of the order was incorrect. I had substituted mac and cheese for the fries but still received fries. The gentleman at the counter was helpful and quickly gave me the mac and cheese when I pointed it out. After sitting back down, I realized we still needed sauce and wanted to order a drink, so I had to get back in line again. Then, after finally getting everything, I realized we hadn't been given a fork for the mac and cheese, requiring yet another trip to the counter. The one bright spot was the cauliflower sandwich it was absolutely delicious and the best part of the meal. Unfortunately, the overall customer service and ordering experience left a lot to be desired. I don't see myself returning to this location.

    This review is mostly for my kids' sake. You always see teenagers in here after school, so of course my kids wanted to try it. They ordered the spicy chicken sandwiches along with the Fruity Pebbles and M&Ms milkshakes. My son says it is now his favorite restaurant, so I am sure we will be back. Prices are a bit high compared to other chicken sandwich spots, but they do have some unique options and really lean into the spicy angle, which my kids love. They do not have a drive thru.

    Just learned that Dave's Hot Chicken opened a location fairly close to my house and we decided to go try them out. I was actually down around this area last weekend to get coffee and I somehow didn't see it. I only learned this when I was searching for newly opened restaurants near me on my phone. We got the food a little later in the night because there was a massive concert being held at Lee's Family Forum, which is like a mile away from my house, and traffic as a result was downright insane. So we waited for it to die down a bit before coming here. Kyle and I both got their chicken sliders with no spice - he got one slider and he got two sliders, with both coming with fries on the side. I also got myself a thing of mac and cheese. I was actually expecting the sliders to be much smaller than what we got, like those burger sliders you see at White Castle. But they looked like regular size chicken sandwiches. Still, though, everything here was really good! The sauce that was added inside made them even more flavorful. The fries and the mac and cheese were excellent as well, with the fries having that great amount of seasoning on them. Even though I'm a fan of Houston's, which is another chicken shop, I wouldn't mind coming back here again.

    Finally, a Dave's in Henderson. The chicken is delicious, moist and tender The spice is just right. The crinkle cut fries are good but not a standout. Overall a great addition to the east side.

    This southern fried chicken spot is definitely our go to! This location just opened and went there on their second day from opening. My whole family will go there for our fried chicken spot! Delicious juicy chicken on their sliders or having them as just a fillet. You choose the type of spiciness. You can't beat their fries that comes with your order. Staff was courteous. Staff was courteous and the cleanliness was great. You've got to go!

    I went into Dave's Hot Chicken expecting to have my taste buds personally assaulted... and instead, I was pleasantly surprised in the best way possible. The chicken? Juicy, crispy, and actually packed with flavor like, "wait... why is this this good?" kind of good. I played it safe with the mild, which turned out to be about as spicy as a warm hug. Not even a whisper of heat. Meanwhile, my boyfriend who thinks hot sauce is a personality trait went for the "hot" and let's just say he looked slightly betrayed when it hit more like a confident medium. So if you're scared of spice, you're safe. If you're chasing a near-death experience, you might need to level all the way up. Either way, we came for the heat and stayed for the flavor and honestly, no real complaints.

    Been wanting to try this place out since it moved to our side of town. Similar to the other chicken places out there. I had the 1 tender meal (#5 not on the menu) which came with a slice of bread, sliced pickles and seasoned fries. I opted for the medium seasoning which wasn't spicy at all, added honey to it. Also includes Dave's sauce which is an orange Mayo-ish sauce.. definitely a cheat meal but would definitely come back. Cashier was pleasant and there were a few customers in the place.

    Oh yeah, Dave's hot chicken in Henderson just opened and I am stoked! Being a chili head a place like this is a dream for me. They just opened yesterday so they're still trying to get their legs under them, but not too bad at all. The restaurant space is very small and very limited seating so chances are you might be better off taking it to go. If you're familiar with Dave's hot chicken, you know that their interior design is usually pretty crazy in this one. It's just as good as they get great chicken got mine one down from the hottest extra spicy and it was all good.

    Haven't had Dave's in a few years & when I did, it was a southern CA location. Was excited to try it again and was pleasantly surprised. Got my order to-go. Ordered the #3 medium spice sandwich & mild spice tender. Chicken was juicy & I preferred the medium flavor since it had a slight kick. Really enjoyed the fries & dipping sauce. Fries were nice and crisp with the softener and seasoning was tasty. Would return again!

    I was super excited to see a Dave's Hot Chicken open nearby and I'm excited that it's a hit for me! Staff were friendly, the restaurant was clean, and the food was really good! We felt that the pricing was on par with Raising Cane's and Chick-fil-a and the portions were a good size. I really enjoyed the minis but the normal size sliders had really large chicken tenders on them and the 2 slider combo could likely be shared. Flavors were good and I liked the variety of the spice levels. I'm looking forward to coming back again soon!

    This is what my grandson ordered, and it was supposed to be mild and it was very hot
    Tanya B.

    The service was great. The gentleman was very nice. He was very polite. It was kind of empty, but I'm thinking because it's new and it was at a particular time of the day but the food. In my opinion I truly was not a fan I will I'll probably never go back. I asked for light seasoning and it came out with so much. It was ridiculous. My grandson ordered a tender and a slider. I believe I'll post pictures and he wanted them mild and it came out hot so I understand this restaurant is just opening over here, I'll give it some more time but as of now I cannot do a good review on it because it just wasn't good to me and I try to be as honest as possible.

The potato salad immediately stood out--it was loaded with fresh dill and reminded me of a classic French-style potato salad. It was bright, fresh, and a nice change from the heavier, mayo-forward versions you usually find. The sandwich was packed with flavor. The homemade Caesar dressing had the perfect balance of creamy, tangy, and savory, and the crusty baguette added an amazing crunch with every bite. The chili crisp oil was the real game changer--it added a subtle heat, a touch of smokiness, and an extra layer of umami that elevated the entire sandwich. Every bite had the perfect combination of creamy, crunchy, and bold flavors. The atmosphere was lively and welcoming. Even though the line grew quickly while I was there, the shop felt organized and efficient, and it was easy to see why it's such a popular spot. The service was excellent, too. I was distracted on the phone with my insurance adjuster and completely missed a couple of questions while ordering, but the employee helping me was patient, friendly, and never made me feel rushed. Even after a long line formed behind me, my food came out surprisingly fast. Great food, great service, and definitely a place I'll be coming back to, to sit down in and take more IG worthy photos as I was in a rush today and had my order wrapped to take.

It smelled heavenly, but the real magic happened when I put the fork in the bunch! Smokin' Sammich Is one of those places that's tucked in the back of a shopping center. But I'm telling you right here and now it is absolutely worth the hunt! I had read about this place online, saw some Instagram posts about it and decided it was about time for me to try it for myself. This is not one of those quick little snack places, this is when you are seriously hungry and need something to keep the wolf from the door. Everything looked so amazing on the menu, I really didn't know what to do. I opted for the bowl with noodles and rice, brisket, I paid extra to have the side of grilled pork belly, and it also came with a couple of egg rolls. I jumped into the egg rolls first, they were so good. At first I was a little put off because they seem so small, but in this case big things come in small packages! Packages! And the dipping sauce for the rolls, top notch! I had to use a lot of restraint, because I wanted to dig right in, but I wanted to taste the meat on its own, as that is the mark of a really good barbecue. I'll just say this, I would put this meat up against anyone in a competition! The brisket was fall apart tender, had great bark on it, and had just the right amount of smoke. It was still moist, and so flavorful. The pork belly was absolutely amazing. Like the brisket had great bark on it but was tender, and juicy on the inside. All I could think about while I was eating it was how awesome it would be on a cheeseburger. Let's talk about the rice and noodles. Most bowls use rice and or noodles as an afterthought. More of just a base to lay the meat on. Not this place. The rice was some of the best I've ever had. Had just the right amount of stickiness, and definitely tasted like it was just fresh cooked then and there. Same thing with the noodles. Absolutely flavorful and a great side dish. Okay, let's talk sauce. I brought home some of the spicy barbecue, as I like a little bit of heat with my sauce. And this one delivers in spades! Super delicious. Had just the right amount of heat at the back of my throat, and really complimented the meat without overpowering it. You could put this on the pork belly, the brisket or an old shoe.. anything would taste good with this sauce! Since I had rice, I knew I was going to want some of their teriyaki sauce. Wow! Just wow! You can tell this is not out of a jug from Costco. This stuff is homemade right there! Much like the spicy barbecue sauce, this had a little bit of a surprise kick to it. Definitely not overpowering and was an absolute joy to put on the rice and the noodles! Bottom line? This is going to be my go-to sandwich place for the rest of my life. I cannot wait to go back and try everything on the menu at least once. If you were ever in the area and you didn't stop by to get something here, then shame on you!

    We discovered this place totally randomly! You walk up to the window to order. I will say that…read moreseveral items were out of stock on the day that we went which was a bit of a bummer for my friend, but our service was made up for by the incredibly staff who talked to us and helped us through our order.

It's a casual restaurant, and it was quiet inside. I would definitely recommend trying out trying Smokin Sammich if you like BBQ, or Asian fusion food! Hats off again to the staff and their friendly customer service. You were awesome!
