    This is the number #2, two sliders and fries. The picture shows one of the two slider. Definitely share this meal. $14.49

    First off, Laura at the front counter was fantastic--so friendly, helpful, and genuinely cared about making our first experience at Dave's a great one. Honestly, I don't think I've ever been helped by someone so professional and welcoming at a counter. She really set the tone. The food was excellent, and the portions are huge! I gave the food 4 out of 5 stars--not because it wasn't good, but just based on personal preference. I ordered the "hot" level, and while it had great flavor and plenty of heat, I personally prefer a saucier, wet-style hot chicken over the powdered seasoning. Still, the chicken was very juicy and fresh, and the sauces were amazing. Prices are a little on the higher side, but the quality backs it up. Next time, I'll split a meal with my partner--it's definitely more than enough for one person with a healthy appetite. We'll absolutely be back.

    I am obsessed with Dave's Hot Chicken! The spiciness is awesome, and the flavor fresh. I've only ever ordered delivery, and despite the distance from the restaurant to my house and office, it's always hot and crispy! The fries are tasty as well, and I'm a huge fan of Dave's sauce. Absolutely delicious. I just can't get over the juiciness of the chicken tenders! This place definitely makes the rotation for my weekly lunches.

    Went on a Friday night. Not too busy. Parking was on the other side of crisp and green but there was lots of spaces available. The staff was very nice. Able to use the app for rewards easily. The designs were pretty cool. The slushees were GOOD. I had the strawberry lemonade. Would get again.

    Food is great! The service that I get every single time I go in is also great. I have been treated with the up most respect every time. The staff goes above and beyond to make sure that my order is correct. I don't do a lot of fast food but Dave's Hot Chicken is right up there with one of the few that I will go to.

    I come here all the time with friends and get the 2 sliders with the included fries for around 15$. It's a cheap, delicious meal for 2. I've yet to have a bad meal here! Service is always quick and usually friendly. Chicken is more flavorful than Chick-fil-A and great if you love spicy. We love the seasoned fries and always ask for extra Dave's sauce!

    I've a few Dave's Hot Chicken locations and it always hits! I am personally a fan of the hot level - I think that is a good heat without being unbearable. I would definitely recommend a sandwich over just the tenders. The bun, slaw, sauce, and pickles make it. I wish I remembered the name of the cashier when we went, but he was super sweet! :) I'll be back!

    I had dinner from here. The place was larger and I expected. It was modern as well. I went with daves #2 2 sliders with fries. I went extra hot. That was actually hotter than I would like. I should have just ordered hot. Mac n cheese side was just ok. Dave's sauce was good. I also went for a top loaded oreo vanilla milk shake. This is the worst milkshake I had in Wisconsin. Generally all milkshakes in WI are rich and creamy.

    Love Dave's chicken! I opted for Dave's #1 combo which included two tenders and fries ($11.99). It's cool that you can choose plain (no spice) all the way up to a truly HOT level of spice. Even your fries can be made spicy if you choose them to be. I went plain chicken, plain fries. They were very delicious! The white meat tenders were literally SO Tender and delicious!! My plain fries were coated with a light sprinkle of seasoning, but they were not spicy at all. The Dave's Hot Chicken sauce included in my combo was awesome with the tenders. The combo was stacked on two pieces of white bread, which was not appealing to me. I think next time I will ask to skip the bread. This may be my new favorite fast-food Chicken place.

    Cool vibe, large pieces of chicken, comes with a piece of bread and pickles. You pick your spice or heat at this place. I'm always amazed seeing more quick chicken restaurants popping up. According to my kids they said it's right up there in same level as chick fil a. Above Raising Canes. Nice seating area outside during nicer months. Be prepared to pay a little more but it's bigger than a normal chicken tender.

    As others have said, it is a bit pricier than you'd expect of a fast food type place. That said, it is pretty good. I got two tenders and fries. The bread is nothing special, just standard white bread. The tenders are generously sized and they were very nice and crispy after taking them home. I got the "hot" spice level which I'd say is fairly accurate. They don't use the Midwest spice scale. It's the kind of spiciness where you'd prefer to savor a bit instead of wolfing it down. I was also surprisingly full after this meal although I didn't think it was that much food at first.

The prosciutto sandwich had balsamic that had just started to soak into the otherwise crunchy bread, with these big chunks of mozzarella and the freshest tomatoes and greens. Alimentari itself is this awesome little deli/grocer with both bagged pastas AND FRESH PASTA/antipasti available to buy, as well as all sorts of goods, breads, coffees, chocolates, beverages and a whole wine selection. Beware that there is no seating inside but definitely do not let this dissuade you from visiting.

I ordered the smoked turkey sandwich, and the gentleman taking my order pointed to a random piece of focaccia on display on the counter and asked if I'd like my sandwich on that. I don't know what kind of bread if normally comes on, but I have since read about the thicker/crustier bread on some reviews. Gosh am I glad he offered the focaccia. The bread made this sandwich, it was sooo good. It was light and fluffy despite being substantial in size, and had this delightful little crunch from the sea salt on it (not in a salty sense, just in a wonderful texture sense). There was a ton of turkey on it and it was a yummy smoked flavor. The other fixings were standard but complimented the sandwich very well. The sandwich was tasty and filling. All this said, because I paid $16 for my sandwich, I wouldn't make it a regular occurrence, maybe a special treat. But if it's on regular bread, particularly a harder crust bread, I think I'd skip it entirely. You do get a lot of sandwich for your money, but I just can't justify it. So, overall, this is definitely worth trying and deciding for yourself - I don't think you'll be disappointed.

It's something else. I deliberately requested additional lettuce b/c Milio's seems to be notoriously stingy when it comes to lettuce. Upon receiving my order the words 'with extra lettuce' were stated. I assumed naturally that upon unwrapping it, it be seeing something that resembled something different than wha these pictures depicted. In the first image it looks pretty deflated. The next one shows the entirety of the contents. Not impressive in any way. The third is about seeking out the invisible bacon. It's there, an extremely anemic and thinnest cut ever, slice of bacon.

I imagine if I looked into it, I'd probably see my own ratings from previous visits. I know I rarely visit this location. Moving forward, rarely is likely to become even less, probably never. Too many far more worthy options within the immediate vicinity. For with its worth at least the sandwich is flavorful, though I do need to add seasonings and jalapeños.
