    Dave's #1 2 Tenders w/ Fries
    Harold G.

    Like the tenders, was pretty crispy overall, was a bit of a wait to get the food but overall good service. The ambiance was pretty nice, fits the theme of Dave's hot chicken pretty well.

    11/9/24. Ordered the chicken tender slider (no slaw) with fries. If you checkin on Yelp you get a FREE drink which I did. The whole was perfect and delicious The fries were fresh crispy and seasoned. I'm not a fan of real spicy food so I choice mild for my slider. Again the meal was delicious!! The staff at the register were kind. I I'll definitely be back next time I'm in Lancaster.

    I said and they wrote, "No pickles, add cheese."  Not only a lot of pickles, but no cheese!
    Doc M.

    Let me start by saying, I LOVE the food, BUT this happens 80% of the time I order from Dave's & now I'm DONE!!! Honestly, it's at every location, but this latest time is the most recent and egregious. I am allergic to cucumber, so I always order saying, "no pickles anywhere." I placed an order for 3 tenders, with cheese, no pickles. The ticket says it and I paid the extra for the cheese...to get home (an hour away), open up my box and see EXTRA pickles and no cheese!!! It would be bad enough to make the mistake, but clearly my order was heard and recorded & STILL, like it's so hard to AVOID adding a food!

    Star did a great job helping out with answering all of my questions. She also made sure to greet everyone as they entered the business. I thought that was both kind and professional. Her suggestions kept me in the know about upgrades, extras and all the drinks. I hit it at the medium level with today's spice level and got my grub on.

    Dave's Hot Chicken tenders, mild.

    My first time at Dave's Hot Chicken. Loved it. Also brought some chicken home with me. Thanks for the great service, Star. Much appreciated!

    Usually great. Chicken portions small today. Quality and flavor still good. Just funky smaller tenders.

    The customer service was fine, however, the food is disgusting. Chicken is undercooked and lacks flavor. Just not my thing.

Sauces on the side- every one loved the food and the desserts (Oreo cheesecake, Carrot cake and Red velvet cake) were delicious. If your looking for something different you have to try this place. It's a "to go" place with plenty of parking- and did I forget to mention they also serve Thrifty Ice Cream as well ?? Great Service and Great Food !

Got the mixed platter with extra sauce and a Smash Burger with potato wedges. The mix platter was pretty good, yellow rice, flavorful chicken and some lamb. The hot sauce has like a Smokey flavor or something, I'll probably ask for it on the side next time but overall it was good. The burger was bomb, the meat had a bit of crisp on it, and the flavors were perfect. Also got the Superman and it was sweet af, I couldn't do it lol but I can see why people like the fruit punch/lemonade mix. Service was outstanding, everyone was nice and attentive. The guy let me try their secret sauce that was also good. It's a small spot so standing room only, order ahead and pick it up, they get packed during rush.

It states My order will be ready by 12:46. I get there at 12:55 and had to wait in line for about 10 mins for them to help those before me since no one acknowledged me standing at the pick up area! Not only is my order not ready it hasn't even been started! Hence the reason I assume no one was acknowledged me at the pick up counter in the first place In case one doesn't know pot pies take approximately 30 minutes to cook so now it's after 1 o'clock and my pot pies are just being placed in the oven at this point. I just asked for them cold, frozen or however they generally receive them and I'll warm them up at home do they accommodate me? NO! Even after they advised they'd add some strips for the inconvenience of my having to wait an additional 30 mins I really don't understand the managements thought process on not making any men work Superbowl Sunday (unless of course they give the same grace to all their female employees for Mother's Day!) Because they looked like they were struggling a bit with the weight of those trays of chicken. But for me I'll locate another KFC. That has their act together a bit more.

    MY REVIEW IS OF THE LOCATION ONLY. I NEVER WENT INSIDE…read more First of all the address doesn't match the chronologically order of numbers in rest of the shopping center. So I'm driving around in the (sketchy) center looking and calling the restaurant and the lady that answered could give precise instruction on how to located the place. When I finally gave up and was just leaving I made a right out of the drive and lo and behold it's on the outside of the center. Literally the highest numbered address and the only suite PRIOR to going into the center. Like hello why not say I'm not inside the center. She kept saying if you in the center near the beauty supply go around the back. Then around the back from Louisiana Chicken. Honey let me advise you, you are prior to the center go around back doesn't make people will at least me think the corner prior to or outside of the center. I was trying to drive to the back of the center and it was not where you'd want your customers going. The spot is off Kingtree and I Street and you can't park on Kingtree nor would you want to there's homeless encampments all over there with antique store directly across the street from her door so any street parking on I would be taken by those patrons. And I had a disabled person in the car who couldn't walk from all the back where the shopping center began. So I'm sure she's missing out on foot traffic and inconvenience of parking traffic. If I maybe so bold as to give my humble opinion, break you lease and find another spot that isn't as scary for lone females and elder patrons to visit, that has robust lit parking and that doesn't put Baby in the back corner !! Sorry I tried to patronize
