    Two Dave's #2 2 Sliders w/ Fries, one hot and one medium
    Stephanie T.

    My husband and I came in and were immediately greeted by the cashier. I didn't catch his name but he was super welcoming and generous with the sauces. We ordered two sliders and fries to share, and it took about ten minutes for the food to come out. The chicken was cooked so well! Not dry at all and the crisp was perfect. I love dipping the fries and the slider into their Dave's sauce. The sauce compliments the food very well, and adding some honey helps balance it more. This location was very clean and spacious. I really enjoyed my visit here and will be back!

    Colorful place with yummy chicken. The drinks were a bit too sweet so I advise to share it. We ordered meals that only come with fries. Drinks are sold separately. We did ask for cups for water FYI the cups are really small clear cups. Restroom, sit down indoors and fountain drinks available here. Park lot with available parking usually We ordered at the kiosk and picked up our food at the counter to bring to where we chose to sit. On the kiosk the item will ask, at the bottom, if any utensils are needed so be sure to add that but we asked for some things but most was available on the side of where the fountain drinks were. I like how red the spicer chicken looks but I opted for it to be not spicy for me. If only I could handle spicy I would try it I'll definitely add this location to my, I would like to go again list

    Combo #1, hot
    Karina S.

    Portion sizes at this location felt very satisfying! Got combo #1 (2 tenders with fries, sauce, and bread) with both tenders spice level Hot. I did not actually find the chicken too spicy at all, and want to try Extra Hot or maybe even Reaper next time. Plenty of seating and very clean inside, quick service, and the tenders and fries came out very crisp and fresh.

    Environment was good. Food was good. Service was good. Pretty cool tasty place to eat

    Two pc chicken medium with fries & sauce!

    So walking in I didn't notice the kiosks to my left but the girl took my order without hesitation or resentment. So nice. You don't even know. The food was good and I tried medium spicy. Delicious! I rarely give more than 4 stars for fast food but this location was great. So I've been to one Dave's Hot Chicken locations in Oakland and my experience was not good. Chicken chunks in tons of breading. However, per the recommendations of an influencer I had to try it again and she was right!

    #Dave's #4 1 Slider with Fries

    New Dave's Hot location in Livermore!! This location is beautifully renovated and I loved how colorful and bright the ambiance was. We've been fans of Dave's for quite some time, IMO it's one of the better "fast food" hot chicken sandwiches! They have a broad range of spice levels to suit anyone's tastebuds. My go-to is the #4 / 1 slider with fries since it's just the right amount of food for me. We ordered for takeout and the fries stayed surprisingly crispy! The slider was a bit underwhelming (this time, eaten as takeout). I prefer eating the sandwich with honey (when it's medium hot or more ofc) over their special sauce.

    The food is really good I like their service as well, loaded fries is so good ambiance and good too is clean

    Fried chicken is actually one of my favorite foods. However whatever seasoning they put in their chicken or even fries was wayyy too salty in my opinion. They could have used less salt in everything. Their staff, on the other hand, were all very friendly and helpful

    Never been to any Dave's Hot Chicken before, but decided to give it a try because the Livermore location just opened today. It has a bright, eclectic atmosphere and plenty of seating. The dining area is open and has concrete floors so it gets loud in here. The menu is... fried chicken tenders. You can also get fries, slaw, mac & cheese, shakes, and other soft drinks. If you're looking for something not fried, you're in the wrong place. They offer a cauliflower alternative to chicken, but it's vegetarian, not vegan.

    Great food, for the kebab lovers…read more I like the combo shish plate. Their meats are so good. It's nicely charred and still tender. The beef and chicken were both excellent. Great flavors. I enjoyed both. With it comes a lot of things- the pita was soft and fluffy. It paired nicely with the creamy and garlicy hummus. So smooth. Like butter. The salad had a nice burst of acidity to it and was very refreshing to eat. Good seasoning/dressing. There was also a yogurt sauce on the side which was delicious. Tangy. The rice was fluffy and soft. It was so much food! Great deal imo.

    I had a very disappointing and upsetting experience at Sultan Kebab in Livermore…read more I ordered a shawarma salad and specifically avoid eating beef because it is against my religion. Unfortunately, I was served beef anyway. On top of that, the salad was spoiled. Shortly after eating it, I became extremely sick and started vomiting repeatedly. I called the restaurant to let them know what happened, but no one responded or made any effort to address the situation or follow up with me. Serving someone meat that goes against their religious beliefs is a serious mistake, and serving spoiled food is unacceptable. I hope the restaurant improves its food safety practices and pays closer attention to customers' dietary and religious restrictions so this doesn't happen to anyone else.

    We walked in Saturday around 12pm. It wasn't busy at all. We ordered the Korma chicken, sabzi lamb,…read morechaplee, lamb kabob, and mantoo. Everything was good. Tender meats and not too salty. The main dishes all came with a side of basmati or seasoned rice. The seasoned rice was very salty. Service was pretty much nonexistent. The staff just brings your food to you and doesn't check up on you. If you can get past the service and just go there for the food. Parking lot is shared with other businesses. 1 restroom.

    Came here recently and honestly had a mixed experience. The bolani comes as either a half (6…read morepieces) or full (12 pieces) order that was strange when normally its just one order and its good for a bunch of folks. Flavor was all over the place -- a couple pieces had no salt at all, while others were way too salty. And the spicyness wasnt(aka chilli flakes) in the potato mixture wasnt spread well either. I got the triple kabob plate and the rice portion was surprisingly small compared to other Afghan spots. Chicken kabobs were inconsistent: some pieces were super salty, others were fine. The beef was tender, but not every bite had the same flavor. Chicken was tender though, cut well. Could have been flavored a bit more Plates overall felt smaller than what I'm used to at similar restaurants. Also worth mentioning -- they serve alcohol here, so if you're strict about halal, that might be a consideration. Since a place selling wine- not sure how strict they are on sourcing halal meat (hand slaughter for example). Also very pricey location compared to others maybe since they serve wine they catering to folks that drink who may spend more without caring All in all, not terrible, but definitely inconsistent and portion sizes could be better. Worth mentioning that all these de afghanans are not same - they have diff owners etc. Not bad seating, was empty for a sunday lunch at noon .
