Great service and amazing quality of food and selection. Love the sides. Looking forward to returning to this location

Dave's has been consistently good at every location I've been to and I've always liked it better than even the OG Hattie B's...and this time was no different from quality and freshness of food but what really stood out today was the excellent service and friendliness of the workers behind the counter. Guy who took the order was professional and thorough and lady who gave me the food and an extra sauce (which is free btw, Canes) were just so friendly and great. Not that I've had bad service here in the past but something's changed at this location and was top notch CFA-style service...good stuff!! read more

A casual place to eat, that is a good option for a quick bite. The variety and quality of the food is very good; in fact, it has improved (and grown) since they first opened. The service is friendly. I love everything but the noise of the chairs when dragged. They are like nails on a chalkboard every time... I also love they rewards program! read more

Never fails to disappoint. Nobody the location, always love getting the two sliders with fries for 14$. Not bad of a deal and you know you will get a good balanced meal. Only successful location and a plus that they gave me a package of Dave's sauce to take home! So tasty! read more

Dave's Hot Chicken - Dave's #2 2 Sliders w/ Fries - Chicken Shop Near Me - Menomonee Falls, Wisconsin

Definitely worth a visit. We drove 20 mins to try the famous fried chicken at 4:50PM on a rainy Friday afternoon and the wait was not bad at all. Parking was very easy. About 20 mins later we were back in the car w the food! The menu was very simple, short and straightforward. They serve tender and tender slider meals w some sides and milkshakes to add on. Each order comes w fries, pickles and bread. Love the fresh and hot, very meaty and super flavorful tenders! So crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside. We didn't challenge ourselves to get the reaper hot so we got hot and extra hot. I would say hot is already very spicy to me but tolerable. Hubby has a much higher tolerance for spiciness and thought extra hot is pretty spicy - it might not be as enjoyable if it became even hotter. The strawberry milkshake was sweet and refreshing - nothing really special but good when you are eating spicy food haha. read more

My daughter & I went to their soft opening today before 4p. Lots of people were pulling up excited to go try new restaurant. We were greeted w/ friendly service as soon as we walked in door & asked how we heard about their restaurant. The line was long but went fast & only waited about 10mins to order & our food was made fast in less than 10mins. The workers were all working together w/ were all kind. You can place your order w/ a cashier or someone (young man w/ tablet was very nice & offered his choice of preference) would come to you w/ a tablet to place your order w/ them w/ a card. The combo's are priced from $12-14 & sadly a drink is not included. For the price of the combo's you would think a small & or medium drink would be included. We would like to go back to try their Mac & cheese & milkshakes next time. read more

Don't fear the reaper... And I didn't. My husband picked up the sandwiches, so I can't speak to the service, but I am sure it was great. Presentation: The items were boxed up nicely with items placed neatly. The sandwiches had some designs to add some flavor and flair. Taste: The chicken was cooked well and not burnt. The chicken tender pieces were moist and meaty. The rub has a nice smoky flavor. Was the reaper spicy? YES! I did have to drink a glass of milk. The first few bites I had the phlegm build up, my eye watered, and my nose was running. After a glass of milk, I was fine and kept eating the rest of the chicken. Oddly, I ate some cold shrimp, and it helped. Disclaimer- I am Southeast Asian and eat spicy jaew (Thai chili pepper sauce) pretty much every day. The bun was basic, so next time, we'll just get the tenders. The fries were crinkled fries with a semi-sweet, smokey flavor. It was okay. I was not a huge fan of the seasoning. I haven't tried the hot yet. I will update the review once I do. read more

Decide to see what the hype was about and it didn't disappoint. Decided to go on a Wednesday night after work and line was still decently long, probably waited 15 min line before reaching the register. Customer service was good, the staff was polite even though it seem to be a busy night. Its located in a shopping area so it's definitely brining more customers to the area. I think they picked a great spot. I ordered #2. Hot. With cheese on both slider. And extra cheese sauce on the side. If you like spicy food, start with hot and work your way up. If you can't really handle spicy then maybe go with medium first. Chicken: great! Was juicy and had a little crunch. The spice was more like a spicy rub. Definitely can feel the spicy kick after a few bites. Fries: tasty by itself, pair it with some cheese sauce, it's bomb! Made yourself some cheese fries! Also came with extra pickles and Dave' sauce, reminds me of a tangy mustard sauce. Overall I say you get a good amount of food for the buck. Definitely give it a try if you are in the mood for some spicy chicken. Next time I'm probably going to step it down a notch with the spice. It has my approval stamp! read more

Dave's Hot Chicken - Chicken Shop Near Me - Menomonee Falls, Wisconsin

I waited a little bit to go because as you can imagine, any new place will always be packed. I went a little after typical lunch time and there was a line but it moved steadily and the food didn't take very long to come out. I definitely ordered more food than I needed but I wanted to try several things to see if it was worth coming back. I started off with the sliders. These are pretty nice sized and will fill most people up. I got the Hot sauce and it was definitely hot, but for me it was the perfect amount of heat. I got the mac and cheese because I am a sucker for that and then I grabbed a tender of the Reaper chicken. I enjoyed my meal. I thought the sliders had good flavor and the chicken was well cooked. The mac n cheese had a nice little bite to it which was pleasing as most places you need to help out the flavor (thinking a little salt and pepper), but not needed here. Ok, the Reaper is the highest heat level they offer and it definitely lives up to it. I am not sure if it was the heat level or the fact that I was stuffed, but I got through half the tender. I was dying... I would probably never make it on Hot Ones.... so if you are someone who likes to push the limits, grab a tender of the reaper and give it ago. Since this is close to home I will be back again for lunch. Lots of options in the area but if I am looking for a hot chicken sandwich, this will be my new spot. read more

Was not what I expected! Not busy and crazy atmosphere- I also thought. ***DAVES #2 was good you get 2 sliders and a fry. When you think of "slider" you think of a small sandwich. Not her! They are full size chicken sandwiches. The chicken was tender, juicy and flavorful! I got HOT for my flavor! Fries were good as well. My entire family enjoyed this. Customer service was good. read more

Came here after randomly seeing it on the road by my families house. I love southern chicken and hot chicken so I definitely needed to give this a try! They only have I believe 3 items or so on their menu that you can choose from for meals/food. Kind of easy to pick and choose that way, I got the mixture to try their chicken tenders and sandwich. The sandwich was basically tenders on it. Good sauce though! I got their mild hotness, it definitely had a kick to it but nothing too bad. It felt a little less of a "sting" like Tabasco. I loved their art designs inside and the look of their restaurant overall. Decent service. Wasn't overly friendly but wasn't rude either. Will be back for the food, good tasting hot chicken. read more

First time visiting one. The chicken sliders were very good. I did the less mild and think I could move to mild next time. Very nice staff. I will say I was disappointed in the soda choices. Only one diet option of Diet Coke which is nasty. With the amount of people drinking diet and diabetic it would be nice to see a Diet Dr. Pepper, Diet Sprite or even Coke Zero. read more

I got a slider, a chicken tender and Mac'n'cheese all were so delicious! I'm a big fan of spicy foods and the spice was perfectly incorporated in the chicken. Ive ordered from here multiple times and each time the food is hot and the chicken is crunchy! read more

Expensive and Slo...w My daughter wanted to try it so we drove up from Brookfield, $34 (and they wanted a tip) for overcooked chicken tenders that tastes like Flaming Hot Cheetos. I would not make the trip again and would not recommend it. read more

We did not have the best of experiences here. The young man who took our order and bagged up food kept playing with his retainer and the person in the kitchen had to keep telling him to stop and to wash his hands. Two minutes later and he was doing it again. Then he popped his retainer in and bagged our food. The chicken itself was okay, but extremely salty. We both finished half our order and threw the rest out. The staff was nice, but they need to be trained on food safety and hygiene. The restaurant itself was clean and inviting. read more

A friend has enjoyed the hot chicken joints in the Nashville Metropolitan area. Thus, we decided to check out what Milwaukee has to offer. Dave's in Menomonee Falls was our first stop. Ostensibly, a fast food restaurant, Dave's status goes up a notch since I was able to customize my order of fries. While the chicken was crispy, with decent flavor, the meat itself was dry and identifiable as fast food chicken. This ain't farm to table. It's more like factory to table. People who work at Dave's seemed nice and were helpful. The place appeared clean, and the bathrooms fine to use with lockable doors for privacy. read more

After finishing my last exam of the block for medical school, a group of us decided to meet up at Dave's hot chicken to celebrate. The line was almost out the door when we arrived. This led me to wonder "Can the chicken really be that good?" The answer to that question is yes. I ordered the number two with a small chocolate shake. And, the sliders had a spiciness level of extra hot. Absolutely no one in our group was talking once our food arrived. We were all too busy stuffing our faces with beautifully fried and crisp chicken. I will say though that the extra hot is not that hot. However, I am the type of person that likes food that is so spicy that one would swear the Devil himself kissed it before handing it to you. And, my nickname is "El Diablo". Every time I bit into the slider, I could hear a fantastic crunch from the perfectly fried breading. The chicken was equally seasoned on all sides and had a beautiful presentation. The chicken did not slide out of the slider and there was just enough coleslaw to give you that nice cooling sensation after eating the spiciness of the sandwich. Not only that, the owner of the establishment came by to our table and gave us a coupon as first-time guests. Overall, the customer service was fantastic and the food was delicious. 10 out of 10 will be coming here again! read more

Dave's Hot Chicken - #2 - Chicken Shop Near Me - Menomonee Falls, Wisconsin

First location in Wisconsin is open, the hot chicken lovers represented. There was a long line out the door, the staff did a good job of communicating wait times and keeping morale lifted while we waited in 12 degree temperatures. We were offered a free shot glass, kids got stickers. I ordered the number three: a slider, chicken tender and fries "hot". I was so excited to try it. The chicken lacks seasoning flavor however the "hot" was manageable and not overpowering. Imagine eating something with heat but no taste. I'm glad I had the opportunity to experience Dave's Hot Chicken. Good service and I know they will do well however the taste is not to my liking. Currently not accepting online orders but I'm sure once the opening hype slows they will. read more

We came into Daves after things had died down a bit. The lines were insanely long when they first opened but it seems like they've found their groove. This place is basically a Raising Canes but with hot chicken, but their Daves sauce is no canes sauce!. There are three menu options, a couple sides, and heat options. We went with the medium but would probably go hot next time. The meal was fulfilling and the chicken was flavorful and tender. A bit greasy but it is fried chicken after all. All in all, solid chicken read more

I waited a bit for the traffic to die down before trying Dave's Hot Chicken but finally had a chance on a weekday during lunch time. It wasn't too busy, not much of a line either which was nice. My friend that just moved back to the area from Houston met up with me. Ordering was fine but the cashiers were very blunt, as I was asked immediately, "do you know what you want?" My friend stated "wow they're kind of rude." Not a good first impression. The person calling out order numbers redeemed that impression as she was friendly. I got the #3 which is a slider and tender combo with the medium spice level. Now I like spicy and can say this wasn't very spicy, more sweet. The dipping sauce was good and I liked the tender. When I got to the slider though...I ended up just eating the tender. The chicken was cooked well, crispy, yet juicy. Every order gets bagged which seems a bit wasteful. Overall, I'd try again but maybe a higher spice level, and on a day that wasn't as nice out (maybe that's why the employees weren't too happy as it was the first 60 degree day). read more

First time here . Our service was fantastic . The guy taking our order was so friendly. Loved their special sauce . I got fries and a tender sandwich and mac and cheese .

I highly recommend Dave's Hot Chicken! These chicken strips are the bomb.com! The chicken strips are delicious on the outside and JUICY on the inside! Choices for "Hotness" levels and the flavor is amazing. They have the wide crinkle cut French Fries... also delicious! I don't care what time that I've gone to the Falls location, it is always busy!

First time at Dave's Hot Chicken in Menomonee Falls and had a super tasty lunch of medium hot (middle of the 7 levels) tenders and fries. The chicken was juicy and hot and the spicy rib was flavorful and tasty. Portions were good and certainly filled us up. Fries have a dusting of mild spice rub that made me want more of them. Combo No. 1 includes two slices of bread, pickles and dipping sauce that complimented the chicken perfectly. Sliders are also available. Check it out! read more

Nice place inside not too much seating but in a really good area customer service was A1 The macaroni and cheese I'll give it 2 out of 10 I would do a better by going to buy some frozen I order medium sauce, chicken tenders, and 2 1 slider The chicken was juicy it had crunch. But chicken lack flavor 4 out of 10 the coleslaw was bland 2 out of 10. The pickle is what save the day? I would rather go to KFC. It's better and cheaper read more

Moved to Milwaukee from California earlier this year and one of the things I was worried about was that there wouldn't be a good hot chicken place in Wisconsin. Was delightfully surprised to see that one of my favorite hot chicken places in California had just opened in Menomonee Falls. I remember seeing the lines down the block at their first store on Western Avenue in downtown LA. I wondered what could be so good that that many people would wait so long for a chicken sandwich. And then I waited one day and began to understand why. Then there were the chicken sandwich wars at the beginning of the pandemic, but it looks like Dave's has come out triumphant, as I have not seen any of the other local restaurants blow up like Dave's. I have to say that this location makes a more consistently good chicken sandwich than any other Dave's location I've been to. Sometimes I had an over fried sandwich at other locations, but I've eaten at this location a dozen times now and haven't had a bad sandwich. Definitely recommend trying if you haven't yet. read more

Food is way over priced for what you get. Not a very big menu at all. Mad Chicken has way more to choose from at a lesser price and wayyyy better read more

Ok been wanting to get here for some time but its kinda out of my way. I finally stopped in . Its nothing but chicken tenders and chicken tender sliders. Few combos to choose from and drink is separate from that. You can get your spice levels and I chose medium which was perfect spice for me wasn't overwhelming and the chicken wasn't dry. I was worried because it looked dark like it was overcooked but it wasn't. The fries are crinkle cut and had some seasoning on it but wasn't something much to care about. They have a sauce called Daves sauce and not a lot of flavor from it. They have some other sides like mac and cheese and kale slaw . I'm surprised im usually opposed to this kind of a place because its way too salty but it actually wasn't. Its kinda pricey for a fast food place. Wish they had other types of chicken to choose from not just tenders. Would I go back? Hmmm maybe read more

Great place for hot chicken...fresh slaw/pickles for a perfect crunch to complement the crispy, juicy chicken. Fries were a nice little touch too with just the right amount of seasoning without being overly salty. Loved all the graffiti artwork on the walls too, which they even carried through into the bathroom. read more

Legit Nashville style hot chicken. Had mild and my son had medium and both hit the heat with taste. Two sliders is probably better to split or go with slider & tender option ‍. Some of the other hot chicken places we've gone to are just heat without taste. Dave's got it right read more

Dave's Hot Chicken - Dave's #2 2 Sliders w/ Fries - Chicken Shop Near Me - Menomonee Falls, Wisconsin

I'm kinda conflicted between 2 and 3 stars. I landed on the 3 ultimately because I did truly enjoy the perfectly crispy huge tenders. As other reviews say, the chicken seems to be spicy simply for the sake of spice, otherwise no different than any other fried chicken. The taste wasn't bad, but I feel I could have made the same mix with paprika and chili powder at home. A bit pricey and the Mac and cheese was super soupy. I can understand the hype for those who love the Nashville Hot chicken style, and I won't say I'll never be back when a hot chicken craving hits...but I'll stick with Wingstop for those other times I need flavorful chicken. read more

Sooo glad to have a halal option in milwaukee area. It's an absolutely must dine-in kind of food - fried chicken - will not taste as good in a takeout. I love how I can get the chicken according to my mood. My all time will be a medium spice level, but for when I do want spicy, hot is perfecttt. read more

The food was fantastic, basic menu but delicious. The staff was just as good, friendly and helpful! great quick bite to eat.

Very impressed with the portions. The chicken was great and it had a really nice kick to it. Definitely not your average "slider." read more

This is the first time I have been to a Daves Hot Chicken. To be honest with all the hype, I was expecting something more. The place was busy which was good to see but there were a ton of employees doing nothing. Some on phones as others were working hard to move the orders along. The menu is super simple. Chicken tenders with varying levels of heat, either on a bun or not and with or without fries and some other sides if wanted. What got me was it is pretty expensive for what you get (2 large tenders) and honestly not all that good as it seemed overcooked and the presentation was not good. Probably not a place I'll visit again as there are so many better options close by. read more
