    Dave's #2 2 Sliders w/ Fries
    LaDray G.

    Massive Disappointment!!! Although I had seen this restaurant in other cities, I finally tried it in Montgomery. Even still, I waited a month or so after the Grand Opening as the lines were long and out of control. This type of buzz and excitement can be expected of a new establishment, especially, when the aesthetics are new and shiny. However, that's where the enjoyable part ended. Walking in, the lobby was packed and had dirty tables, further, limited seating options. The menu was simple enough and the order was placed, quickly and efficiently. But, it took over 30 minutes to come!!! And, get this, it was COLD! Every bite from the sliders, fries, and chicken bites, tasted frigid. Why in the world was the wait so long for the food to be cold? Odd! Also, they forgot part of the order and I had to wait longer for them to get that part. On top of the that, beyond the 'spicy' exterior there was no flavor to this chicken...At ALL!!! I'm going to try one more time to see if, at least, it tastes different if served fresh and, truly, hot. Extremely disappointed but willing to try it one more time.

    The fries were golden fried and well-seasoned. It's hard to eat just 1 at a time. The Dave's sauce is great for dipping. The pickles are chewy with the right amount of crunch. The tenders are huge. The bun is light and the ideal size for sliders. The kale slaw adds the optimal amount of crunch and sweetness to the medium sauce.

    Great food , very busy! Better get there early! Nice and clean. The sliders ( Hot) were very good! Wife had tenders no sauce. Daves Bites ( Very Hot) were delicious also

    The sign should say - NOW CLOSED

    If you ever see a Dave's Hot Chicken restaurant and want to try it because it's new and a little different than all the other chicken places around. DO. NOT. DO. IT. You will find yourself standing around waiting for over an hour on food that turns out to be mediocre at best.

    Slowest restaurant I've ever been to in my life. I ordered one slider and it took over and hour to get it. The place wasn't even packed.

    Great food and service Corn bread and banana pudding were…read moregreat! I can't wait to come back again

    My wife and I were passing through Montgomery, when we decided we were hungry. My wife did two…read moredifferent AI restaurant searches and Martha's Place came up on both searches, as highly recommended and one of the best-known country cooking / soul food spots in Montgomery. Martha's Place it is... Upon arrival, Martha's place looked very upscale. Very nice building and many Mercedes and Cadillacs were parked out front. We started to wonder if we'd wandered into some rich neighborhood where the prices would be sky high! We walked in and a young lady greeted us and told us that lunch was $14 including a drink. GREAT! Everyone in the restaurant was amiable and helpful. (Staff and customers). We went to the buffet and loaded our plates with beautifully fried chicken and meatloaf for our proteins. For our sides we had collards, mashed potatoes, black eyed peas a couple of pieces of cornbread and some banana pudding for dessert. Then, the first weird thing happened. As we took our seats, the waiter that helped us get seated, told us that they only had one fork and one knife. We assumed he meant he would go back to the kitchen (or the dishwasher, or wherever) and get us another set. Meanwhile, the food looked SO GOOD, we immediately began sharing the fork and taking turns. MAN! THIS FOOD WAS GREAT! After a couple of minutes, we noticed the second weird thing... we were the only two white folks in the entire, crowded restaurant. And there were LOTS OF PEOPLE. They also do a huge to go business, so, the buffet station stays pretty busy with people coming and going. But, during the entire time we were there, there was not a single non-black customer in the house, except us. Not an employee. Not a customer. Not even a to go customer, just passing through - NOBODY. After about 5 or 6 minutes of taking turns with the fork, we decided our server must've forgotten about us. So, my wife went and asked and was informed they still didn't have any forks. (No. We were not being singled out, as my wife heard them tell another customer the same thing.) My wife asked if they had some plastic utensils, used for to go orders. They were able to oblige. Back to the food... The fried chicken was as good as any I've ever had and much better than any I've had in recent memory. The vegetables were also seasoned and prepared as good as any I've ever had - in a restaurant OR at home. The cornbread didn't have real corn in it, (like I prefer) but it was still some KILLER CORNBREAD. And the nanner puddin' was off the charts. I REALLY WANT some more of that nanner puddin'!! The staff were friendly and helpful and I have no idea why we were the only white folks in attendance. Maybe it was just a weird coincidence. But, I'll tell you this. The nice people at this restaurant KNOW HOW TO COOK. And I highly recommend this restaurant to ANYBODY -- No matter what color you are! My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed our dining experience and we look forward to dining there again, the next time we pass through Montgomery. Go here. You won't get a better country meal - anywhere. P.S. You might want to bring a fork.
