    Michelin starred restaurant- said no one ever.
    Mark S.

    The food was salty. The service was missing. Absolutely no customer service for new or returning customers. I ordered 18 piece bites, and I had to pay for one ranch. Which is okay (not really) but when I saw they had reaper ranch, I wanted to try it and the cashier said "you'll have to buy it". I asked if she can provide it free so I can try it and buy it next time I return. She said "if you don't like it, i don't know what to tell you". I don't mind buying one or all the sauces in the world. But if I was providing great service, I'd do a one time thing. What was even more shocking was that we went to the other Dave's off Tippecanoe and they gave me all the sauce in the world. Ranch, reaper, Dave's, etc. without hesitation. While waiting, a customer came back and got his money back because his food was waaaaaay too salty. They gave him a refund and threw away the food. With no consideration for the inconvenience. You guys here are a hot mess... if you're going to run this place like a five star restaurant, then make sure your customer service level is in par with that. Las time I come here. I'll be sure all my friends know what they're getting into before coming. BEWARE TEAM ELITE!!! Management lacks experience. I forgot to mention you can't mix and match flavors when you order saucy bites. wth? lol THEY ALSO PRIORITIZE ONLINE ORDERS BEFORE ACTUAL DINE-in CUSTOMERS.

    Small Small Top Loaded Fries

    I always see a line at Dave's Hot Chicken and finally decided to try it to see what the hype was about. Honestly, I was pretty disappointed. I got the small top-loaded fries and it only came with three pieces of chicken, plus the fries were cold. The flavor was fine but nothing special. I also tried the mac and cheese, and it just tasted like boxed mac to me. Maybe it's just this location, but I wish there was a 1.5-star option--doesn't quite deserve one star, but definitely not two. To make it worse, my order took forever and there weren't even that many people there. Oh well, at least I tried it.

    I visited Dave's Hot Chicken in Highland, CA tonight and placed my order at 9:46 PM with Dayana. From the start, I felt rushed at the register even though there was no one behind me. About one to one-and-a-half minutes after placing my order, I went back to the counter to ask if I could cancel the chicken strip and switch to the 10-bite meal. Dayana seemed confused and said the order couldn't be changed because they had already started it. This was around 9:49 PM. What was frustrating is that my order wasn't actually called until 10:05 PM, nearly 20 minutes after I initially ordered. Given that amount of time, it didn't make sense to me why such a small adjustment couldn't be made so soon after payment. It felt less like a system limitation and more like an unwillingness to make the change. When I got home around 10:10 PM, I realized the food wasn't hot; just warm. After waiting 20 minutes, I expected the food to be fresh and hot. I also noticed Dayana sweeping the main area while waiting, which made me wonder if my food had been sitting out before being handed to me. I'm disappointed overall. I hope this can be taken as a coaching opportunity; sometimes making a quick adjustment can go a long way in improving the customer experience

    I ordered a 4 piece slider meal. I only got four pieces of plain chicken and some cold fries. I called to inquire about a refund and nobody picked up. Unbelievably disrespectful. You've lost my service. The date of order was tuesday 8/25/26 11:50pm. Whatever manager was on shift today needs to have a refresher on how to manage the floor from the general manager.

    Had Dave's hit chicken for the first time and it was delicious. The chicken pieces are thick and juicy even though they're fried. The pickles and sauce just add to the overall flavor. Definitely returning!

    Decent location. Nothing special. I love the location though. Next closet one was in a very industrial center of SB so this location is prime & close to Redland's mountain grove & citrus plaza so it's good. Clean & bright location & service was okay. Nothing special. & food was good. Still better than raising canes too so.

    Salty salty salty salty!!!!! And they charge for ranch for crispy chkn tenders wow!!!!!

    I've been going to Saverino's Italian Deli & Market for many years, and it has always been amazing…read more The food is consistently excellent, whether you're ordering a sandwich, lasagna, a side, or one of their daily specials. This place is always busy, both inside and with takeout orders, so I definitely recommend ordering ahead if you're in a hurry. That said, they are consummate professionals at what they do, and even if you walk in, the wait is never painful. My advice: check out the menu while you're in line and be ready to order when you get to the register. They're busy, and nobody wants to be the indecisive person holding up the line! Their daily specials are incredible, but be aware that if you want a special from a different day, it's not happening. Also, get there early if you want the special, because they can and do sell out -- which honestly just proves how good they are. Everything here is done right. The menu items are thoughtfully put together, balanced, and full of flavor. Portions are generous without being ridiculous, prices are very fair, and honestly, I think they may even be low compared to the value you get. The staff is always helpful, and the girl at the counter has been there as long as I've been going -- I believe she's family -- which says a lot about the heart behind this place. Don't skip the market, either. They carry some of the best Italian ingredients, and it adds even more to the experience. Saverino's is by far the best sandwich spot in Redlands, and I'd go out on a limb and put them in the top five on the West Coast. Family-run, local, consistent, and absolutely top notch. This place is a winner and deserves a try. Just one warning: THEY ARE ADDICTIVE!

Inside is all reclaimed wood and cozy tables, people working on laptops, the coolest Redlands City Limits sign, kids flipping through board games and books in the corner, soft chatter, good energy. Pro tip: get in line as soon as you get there because it fills up fast and the line can absolutely go out the door. I had the chai latte (so good), a cheese danish (dangerous), and an Everlasting Ferments kombucha...the Habanero Ginger is a sleeper hit. You can also snag breakfast burritos if you're lucky (they sell out), or freshly made stuffed waffles from a vendor outside, which somehow makes the whole experience feel extra charming. There are cute little café tables all around and a tucked-away, walled patio in the back that's perfect for bigger groups. Already planning future coffee dates. Late to the party, but fully committed now!

But, aren't these the best places for some food? The menu can be a bit overwhelming if you're new. There are a lot of options. But, to an adept foodie you quickly find what you've been craving. I ordered 3 sandwiches: The Joker & The Thief: -the pastrami is cooked in their Joker sauce. I had it on a toasted French roll. Added mayo with some pickles! I also opted for "The Thief" which is added cubed BBQ Brisket for +2$ dollars! I smacked that thing down in the car so quick. What I mean to say is, I took the first bite and all the flavors came together perfectly. I could not put the sandwich down. I ate the sandwich so fast I may have lost a little oxygen to the brain as I inhaled the sandwich. Now, I'm contemplating how I can come back to order another sandwich one I live 5hrs away. I still have 2 more sandwiches for the ride home. One is the Green Shack sandwich (Turkey, Avo, & Bacon) and a chopped sandwich Don't judge me.... Yeah I'm an under cover BIG BACK. Anyways - This is a must try if you're in the area. I came in on a Friday and there was a wait. But it was definitely worth it. As I walked out I found $15 on the sidewalk.

We wish it would have been cooked on a flat top or something similar. We both tried new iced coffees. Caramel Coconut Latte and the Billy Buster. The latte was lightly flavored with actual coconut pieces inside. We weren't sure whether to get the Billy Buster hot or iced; the cashier recommended iced. When sipping the coffee through the straw, chunks of peanut butter were coming up and separating in my mouth, leaving an odd texture. I attempted to stir the drink as much as possible, but was only able to finish a 1/4 of it. I'm wondering if hot would have been better for the blending of the peanut butter into the drink?! We would not order it again, nor the sausage sandwich.
