    Stopped in last night to finally try Dave's. Definitely worth it! It's a bit of a wait due to short staff but they're working it just fine! Cheers to them they're troopers! I got the "HOT" flavor, it was good not too hot for starters. I'll definitely go hotter to try.

    This was our first time trying Dave's hot chicken. To me they were on the pricier side but the tenders are huge! For a our family of 4 we ordered the hotbox tender box for $40 bucks and added a large fry for another $10 bucks. The staff was super nice to explain the heat levels and even give our kids stickers for fun. The sit down part of the restaurant looks so cool, gives me trendy vibes. At the end we ordered shakes. It's a soft serve ice cream out a machine and they put candy on top. Super simple but tasty. I would definitely go back.

    I saw the ad on TV for this place, so I had to give it a try. I also heard good things at about it at work, and from others that ate here. Dave's Chicken could possibly be the most delicious chicken I have ever eaten! Whether you like spicy or mild, the chicken is cooked to order, and it comes out fresh and hot. I had the two piece tender basket (with fries) and a medium soda ... total came to $12.65, and it was well worth it! I highly recommend dousing your chicken (and fries) with Dave sauce. It actually compliments the spicy chicken. Camp is very friendly, knowledgeable, and accommodating. Very well-managed restaurant. Definitely a return trip.

    I ordered pick up at this location. There happened to be a coupon, so I figured I'd try out this restaurant. I've never had Dave's hot chicken before. Ordering online was easy. I was able to pick up my food quickly. I ordered a slider, fries, and chicken tenders. I ordered mild. The food was delicious. The chicken tenders were amazing. I paid about $15 for a meal. That did not include a drink or the discount after using my coupon. I was happy with my meal, I thought the price was a tad bit high. This restaurant is very similar to a Raising Canes, but with more variety. I'd go back again, most likely with another coupon. I do recommend this business if you're a chicken lover.

    Grand opening of Dave's hot chicken for dinner!! (Even though they seemed to have opened yesterday, maybe a soft opening?) The line was OUT THE DOOR but it was moving pretty quick. Everyone there was so friendly, they passed out menus to people in line & little gifts like a toy chicken! Haha. Once we got up to the front ordering was super easy & the food came out QUICK! All the food is really good, I actually LOVE the daves sauce. It's not spicy to me at all however neither the medium or hot so I will try extra hot next time!! Mac n cheese isn't the best but it's not the worst either I'd definitely get it again, cheese fries were also pretty good. The chicken pieces are HUGE! I got full after just a quarter of my food so $30 for two people's dinners isn't bad at all. Can't wait to come back already! Thanks Dave's Hot Chicken!

    While the workers have zero interest in moving with purpose or any sense of urgency, my fries were cold and my chicken was fantastic.

    I always know I'm going to like my food here. The hot is a good mix of flavor and spice. I love the slaw on the slider but wish there was a little more as it is so good and provides a nice crunch and coolness. Service is alway good and the restaurant is clean.

    We went there on opening day pretty late around 9pm and the line was out the door. was really impressed at how they managed the line and got everyone taken care. The staff was learning and that is ok they was doing a fantastic job of managing. we went there because it is halal and i took a picture of the cert as well and will go back there often even though i live in illinois. We got the no spice the light mild and the medium sliders . it seemed the medium was not spicy so i will try to up the spice level next time. the chicken was ok nothing special but i would still go back there to get a chicken sandwich for me and the family

    Nothing special as far as the food was close to closing time 1040, cashier was friendly and quick, service was a bit slow.

    I came here with a group of friends, our main goal the khachapuri, but everything about the food…read moreand experience was fantastic. The restaurant has a very open, warm vibe, very spacious. We had boorsok for our appetizer, fried dough bites that reminded me of funnel cake without sugar, and there were a lot! I had the strawberry mojito drink, and it was fantastic, really tasting of fresh fruit with many mint leaves inside. The khachapuri was extraordinary. They do imeruli style, round and similar to a pizza, the crust beautifully blistered and the cheese thick with a wonderful pull. One of my friends hadn't had khachapuri before and is now a convert. We also had boso lagman, with hand-pulled noodles and beef, and big manty dumplings with flavorful meatballs inside. I requested we get a slice of honey cake, too, and that was a perfect finish to the meal. Sweet but not overkill, and really tasted like honey, graham crackers, and cream. I'm not sure when I will possibly be in this area again, but wow, I would come here again.

    I had previously tried Karavan at the taste of Des Plaines and recently had my first experience…read moreeating there in person. We went during lunch and were promptly seated. The decor offered great ambiance! In order to try a couple of items my sister and I decided to split the laghman and eggplant salad. The laghman was excellent with fresh hand-pulled noodles. I appreciated that they split the dish in the kitchen for us. The eggplant salad was a good portion to supplement the noodles. But points of caution that they are fried and have an almost sweet and sour sauce on top which for me was a little heavy. Overall quick and efficient service for a sit down lunch during the work week. They also appeared to have an extensive drink menu of different lemonade and coffee that I would be interested to try next time.

    First time here…read more Food: We were excited to try some Somali/African cuisine. For beverages, we ordered the chai tea and the mango smoothie. I was expecting a plain chai tea, but what I received was actually a chai latte. What a wonderful surprise! It wasn't the type of chai latte I might expect from a local coffee shop, but it was better than many I've had. We started with a couple of veggie sambusas. They were excellent. Hot, crisp, and fresh, with a generous filling and served with a side of mint chutney. Together, they made a fantastic flavor combination. We also ordered hummus and pita bread. Both were fresh, tasty, and well presented. The final part of our meal was the Goat Platter. It arrived hot and fresh, with generous portions. The goat meat was delicious and tender. The serving was large enough that I took half home, and it will make great leftovers. Service: The gentleman at the counter was friendly and efficient. He was very attentive, bringing each item to our table. He seemed genuinely proud of the food, its presentation, and our reaction to it. There was also a woman in the back, whom I believe was doing most of the cooking, and I had a chance to thank her as well. Atmosphere: The restaurant is small and unassuming. It was clean and well lit, thanks to the large front windows. It appears that most of their business is takeout, but there are several tables available for dining in. We were the only people eating there during our visit, so it was very quiet. Overall: We were super impressed with this little spot serving excellent Somali/African food. The quality of the food, the warm service, and the generous portions made for a wonderful first experience. We'll definitely be back.

    Never thought I'd find good Somalian food in Milwaukee or at all. The goat was cooked perfectly and…read morewas still moist. I've been to other Somalian spots where they cook the lamb so long that it's tender, but stringy and dry. Not this place - it still had it's succulence. The seasonings were on point. Both the chicken and beef sambusas were tasty - but in my opinion lacked the punch compared to other sambusas I've had. The chicken one was especially bland, but the sauce saved it. The chicken one was dry and had a shredded texture. I suggest making small dices to the chicken and mixing it the slightest amount of gravy to keep the chicken moist before folding it in the pastry. The service was really friendly. Everyone needs to go here now! I'll definitely be back
