This is the real deal if you are looking for some really delicious hot chicken. Having eaten the real Nashville hot chicken hundreds of times, I was pretty skeptical about trying a chain outside of Nashville. While the service was very average, and the cleanliness of the restaurant could be greatly improved on, the chicken was delicious. For those that are familiar with Nashville, hot chicken, if you want the equivalent of a medium, get the hot here. Essentially, just order one level up from what you normally would order. The chicken itself is extremely crispy, well seasoned, and has delicious flavor. The chicken is still super juicy, and they serve it with the traditional white bread and pickles. I highly recommend getting a few extra packets of Dave's sauce. This creamy sauce is the perfect accompaniment to dip the chicken in. I see here are a little expensive, but that is New York. As I mentioned earlier, service is very subpar. No one manned the cash register for over 20 minutes, but that didn't affect me as I ordered on the app ahead of time. This did affect the four or five people standing in line waiting to place an order. Atmosphere is very average. There were spilled drinks and some trash on the floor. I would definitely come back here for that delicious chicken! read more

I'm want to let you know that this franchise is really good. Especially if you love yourself some spicy chicken. Once I found out this location opened and since I was in the area, I decided to stop and make an order. Customer service was great. My cashier greeted me with a smile. I didn't have to wait long for my order. The chicken itself is amazing. It's seasoned very well. The chicken is juicy, and what a flavor bomb because of the spices. I really like that you can pick the spice levels or no spice at all. You really want this chicken because of how spicy it is. I don't care for this location much and probably wouldn't visit it often, but it does have enough seating to dine in, and from the looks of it, it will be a teenage magnet. Happy Yelping! read more

Yum yum yum! I tried the spicy chicken sandwich (medium heat) and it was so tasty and flavorful- just the right amount of kick, savory, crunchy, and saltiness added by the pickle and chicken seasoning. I would definitely return and get another sandwich. The Harlem location is clean and staff is friendly and attentive. It was my first time at Dave's Chicken and the gentleman behind the register didn't seem annoyed when explaining the different sauces available and the different type of heat you can add to your chicken. I went on a Thursday afternoon and the place was practically empty with only two other customers sitting and enjoying their meals. I would argue that this chicken sandwich is better than Cane's chicken sandwich which is very similar but doesn't quite have a leg up on Dave's chicken. It just has the right amount of heat and fried perfectly. read more

I stopped by one early afternoon and it was empty which meant no long wait time which I like because I was on a time crunch. I loooooved the spicy chicken sandwichThe chicken is huge and you can adjust the spice flavor I got medium. The slaw on the Sandwich is a perfect balance to the spicy chicken. I also tried the cauliflower bites and those were also very good. The fries I liked but I wish they were crispier and the Mac and cheese was good but the star of the show was the chicken sandwich. read more

Super upset! came into the location at noon, driving from Gun hill Road in the Bronx, just for Dave's hot chicken. Only for them to mess up my order and it was empty in the restaurant, #1 there vending (ice) machine wasn't working, so no ice for my bev! then #2 they messed up my order by not including slaw on my sliders, I substituted the fries for slaw and still didn't receive my slaw. the young lady that took my order was nice her name was Lynelle C, but dang next time I know I have to press yall up and double check my order before leaving the store cause ya'll can't be trusted! I know one thing after speaking to the Manager, y'all gonna replace my whole meal.. after the amount I paid and the drive I took. read more

They started off great but within the last year ordering food online have been the worse as well as the quality. I ordered food tonight, a #4 and a Mango drink. They didn't send the drink and the food was freezing cold as if it was in a cooler. The thing is my food came very fast so I was confused on why it was so cold. The meat was stringy and overall left a bad after taste. I tried calling the restaurant but no answer. I took a break from ordering from there because of these same reasons and had a taste for it tonight because I used to really love Dave's hot but not only am I paying for thing I don't receive time and time again and having to dispute it is a headache but the quality isn't that great. I'm very disappointed. read more

Good, awesome, and delicious. Dave's sauce, is the sauce. Fast and easy. Don't forget the fries, they have good fries too.

This has become my new go-to chicken spot because I love the seasoning on their chicken! I've tried a couple of the hot flavors but I like the mild one the best. The fries are okay but it's really the chicken and the sauce that keep me coming back. The pickles are a nice touch too. I also like the idea that when I order online, the food is ready when I get there. I've never had to wait. read more

They are trying to preserve us. Too much salt!. Messed it up for me. More flavor and less salt please. We want to enjoy the food not be dry brined with it. Could not finish it. read more

Ordered some chicken tenders to check out the taste of this new business. A Friday night for no fuss and fast food in Harlem is a good suggestion for this place. They are friendly at the counter and explain spice levels, if you're scared of spicy flavors and they have cool R&B/soul music while you wait for your order. read more

Okay so this spot has only been open for about 2 months at this point and they've done an excellent job. The decor is an edgy spray painted mural with a Harlem twist which keeps it in the ethos of old school. Harlem. Every time I've gone in or passed it, it is impeccably clean. The countertops are stainless steel adding to that very sleek feeling when you enter. The menu is very simple. You can either get fingers or sliders. There are a number of heat levels from no spice to extremely hot. Full disclosure, I have a sensitivity to chicken so I got mild. Needless to say, I enjoyed it. Because of return the next week. Now they start off with two chicken fingers, but before you think that they're skimping on you, those fingers are actually a little under a whole breast size. Joe, I actually didn't finish more than a single finger while I was in the restaurant. Now let's talk about the staff. They are extremely well mannered and give you service with a smile. Dare I say they are refreshing in a city where we're fast food service folks are understandably the stressed out and over it. They welcome you with a smile and generously offer condiments at no extra charge. Not over fried. This tends to irritate my stomach so I appreciate it not having that happen. I didn't want to be too conspicuous so I didn't take a picture of the menu, but the least expensive item is a little over $11 excluding the drinks and fries which are less read more

Fries are fyaaaa , chicken greasy as fuck it's aii 7 outta. 10 with fare prices , the sauce was my favorite part

Solid but the wait was too long and I feel like the price for one tender is a bit too high. Also the chicken slider could use a bit more kick or spice to it. read more
