    Chicken Dave's #1 2 Tenders w/ Fries
    Shelly S.

    The restaurant was clean, service was fast, and the food was delicious! Tables emptied quick.. I'd say people spend about 20 minutes sitting and eating here. All meals come in a to go box, whether you're eating there or not.

    Stopped in for a quick bite. Service was fast and for the most part the place looked clean. The bathroom could use some attention though. Food was hot and fresh and the right amount of spice for the order. If you're craving some fried hot chicken in the Arden area this is a decent option. No surprises and the order was what to be expected.

    This was sooooo good. I'm still thinking about it

    I finally made it to Dave's Hot chicken after months of my son asking me if he could try it. Let me just say the staff was kind and the food was delicious. I was shocked on how great the customer service was. It was a little pricey lol but still good food and the slushy with Icecream. Oh my my, it was sooooooo good!!!!!

    The service is here is amazing, i was guided through the menu since it was my first time here. They made sure to ask every customer while i was there if it was there first time. The food is great. I highly recommend to give this place a try whenever you can. The ambiance was just great. Great service, food comes out fast, and just great environment. I tried to tip a brotha but they have to refuse tips. This place needs to start allowing cash tips.

    Shoutout to Mark (I believe that was his name) super welcoming and went above and beyond helping us out. Food was good too. Just wish they had tvs

    First timer here. Went through drive thru. It took roughly 30 minutes. There were lots of people since Dave's were giving free slider on the app. Ordered two number 2 in medium, one hot, and one reaper (you have to sign a consent). Redeemed the free slider for a non spice. The kiddos used their own app coupon and redeemed mild level (not in photo). If you're someone who eat spicy and has a high spice tolerance medium and mild is nothing. They could barely taste the spice and regretted not ordering hot. Hot was not spicy but it will give a taste of the spice. Reaper should really be a creeper . The spice has a delay kick. Kiddos needed lots of milk. My spice tolerance is not crazy high but I was fine afterwards. Chicken overall was not bad. Sandwiches were okay size. French fries were okay. Thankfully not soggy by the time we got home. Sauce with the meal was okay. Didn't get any ketchup. I did ask for them. Drinks were not included in the meals. Overall, sandwiches were not bad.

    Ordered the regular size loaded buffalo mac and and cheese and it was half empty compared to the picture online. Very disappointing.

    The milkshake was GOOD, thick like a milkshake should be. I got the medium spice slider and fries. Good amount of spice but not very spicy over all. Quick service, and very helpful too, several times people came around and asked us if we needed anything, for a fast food joint it was surprising! The place is a bit loud though, hard to hear people but the food was good!

I ordered delivery, so I can't really speak on the ambiance, but the food definitely made an impression. I had the fried fish, macaroni and cheese, fried green beans, and a slice of sweet potato pound cake. Let's start with the star of the show: the fried green beans. Whew! I love trying new food items, especially when they surprise me, and these absolutely blew my mind. Perfectly fried, flavorful, and just downright addictive, they were hands down my favorite. The fried fish was good and hit the spot. The sweet potato pound cake was also solid, moist, sweet, and a great way to finish the meal. The only thing that didn't quite do it for me was the macaroni and cheese, but everything else more than made up for it. Overall, I'm pleasantly surprised and definitely happy I discovered Ray's. If you've been keeping this place a secret, I forgive you... but I'll be ordering those fried green beans again soon!

We learned on our very first visit how good the gumbo is and it's become a must ever since. The people who work here are friendly and you can tell they have a lot of regulars who stop in for food. There's a gravel lot right next to the building and you can take your food to go or enjoy it there. Our food took about 15-20 minutes and then we took it home to enjoy. The portions are definitely fair for the price. They also pack everything well for the ride home. The gumbo is our favorite, it's flavorful and packed with protein like their sausage, chicken, and shrimp and has just a hint of spice. We tried their riblets for the first time and it was a generous portion and we really enjoyed the bbq sauce they used. The mac and cheese is good, but I like mine creamier. It does have a little spice which was nice. The dressing was packed with flavor and we were excited they offered this side because you don't see it everywhere. Their hot water cornbread is definitely something they're known for and is really good on its own or dipped into the gumbo. The Palmer here tastes like Brisk raspberry tea mixed with lemonade, and we really enjoy this twist on it. Overall this spot is a local gem and we love visiting.

One…read morecustomer was sitting at a table waiting for her order. ​It's a small, very interesting place! (I found this restaurant by accident on Google.) I decided to stand there and review the very clear appetizing menu, taking a moment to soak in this unusual eating spot. I enjoyed the uniqueness and creativity of the layout--you have to be here to understand it. Anyway, as I was standing there, I heard a very pleasant voice ask, "May I help you?" I reached up and turned up my "pretend" hearing aid to make sure I heard that voice coming from a professional Young Queen. It made me forget I was at a soul food establishment! Usually, I am greeted with rolling eyes, laziness, and--most of all--attitude. ​(See one of my old podcasts link below regarding my opinion on soul food restaurants on iHeartRadio): https://www.iheart.com/podcast/269-the-david-mack-show-105280474/episode/lena-s-soul-food-in-oakland-ca-119449772/?cmp=android_share&sc=android_social_share&pr=false ​Back to my review: Her name is Victoria... like the Queen! ​I told Victoria I was looking at the menu, which has a very nice variety of soul food selections. Victoria asked me if I would like to sample the gumbo. ​Sure! ​Victoria came back with a small, teasing sample, and after tasting it, I told her, "SOLD!" Just from the taste of that gumbo, I knew my Mother's Spirit was back there doing the cooking. ​It was a very cold day, and I would have eaten there, but because of the layout, I ordered the family size to-go. The gumbo also comes with hot water cornbread. Victoria took my order, my payment, and advised me it would be ready in five minutes. I waited in my car. ​I came back in four minutes, and my order was already bagged and ready for pickup. I "suffered" during the hour-long drive home, smelling the aroma of that meal the whole way! ​Finally home, I opened the secure bag, filled to the top container, and took out the prize. The food presentation was excellent! I put the gumbo in a bowl, and it was still very hot. ​I then proceeded to taste my meal: ​Rice: Nice and fluffy! ​Chicken: Flavored perfectly. Soup ​Juice: Perfect. ​Prawns: Excellent. ​Sausage: Plump and sliced perfectly. ​All many other ingredients: Very tasty with a hint of spice. Note: ​There were no crab legs to make a mess (which I did NOT miss) and no slimy okra (which was great)! ​The sweet hot water cornbread was very buttery and looked like a thick pancake. I put mine in the toaster oven to warm it up and get it a little crisp. It was amazing! That gumbo not only warmed me up, but it also put me to sleep like a big baby! ​If this restaurant continues with the trajectory of this review (professional attitude, unique layout, and great menu items), they will be the "go-to" soul food spot on the 80! I wouldn't change a thing! ​I will return because I want to report on another food item I had my eye on before the gumbo sample! ​Go check out this spot and see the Young Queen Victoria! Make sure you tip her for great service (No Tax On Tips), just like I did! ​David Mack (Reviewer-in-Chief)
