Absolutely the best, most reliable fast food in Savannah... With amazing and friendly staff. I've been coming here a few times a month and am probably known as the "extra pickles" guy. I ordered a hot slider today and I think they pranked me (I'd asked about the reaper seasoning before)... It was HOT... And the one bite I took was very tasty, but holy moly. They had a replacement sammich ready for me with extra pickles and a smile. Food is excellent, service is spectacular. The gal I interacted with tonight even offered a shake to cool me down while I was standing there sweating. Very different than any other fast food place in Savannah. An hour in I'm still sweating, but it was awesome!! read more

Dave's Hot Chicken - Chicken Shop Near Me - Savannah, Georgia

Dave's Hot Chicken is a straightforward concept -- chicken tenders served at varying heat levels, paired with fries. The staff was friendly, service was fast, and the restaurant was clean and well-kept. They're also open until midnight, which is a great bonus. The loaded fries were a simple combo of fries topped with a few buffalo chicken bites over a scoop of mac and cheese -- decent, but not quite the loaded experience you might expect. The hot tenders delivered on the heat, though the spice came across more as a dry rub on the fried chicken rather than a saucy coating, which may catch some spicy chicken fans off guard. Overall a solid spot, especially for a late night bite. read more

If you like Nashville style hot chicken then this is the place for you! Choose between 7 varying heat flavors, and there's a choice for everyone. No drive thru, so take a load off and dine in. The employees were quick to help and explain the menu, too. Fun murals decorate the walls and there's plenty of seating. Today we ordered and shared a #2 which included two sliders and fries. This is a very shareable size meal as the sliders were quite large! We were able to mix up the heat selections- I chose medium and hubs hot. The chicken was tender, crispy and graciously doused in the chosen sauce. They are delicious sandwiches! We will return! read more

Dave's specializes in everything related to chicken tenders. They offer regular tender sliders, mini sliders, and tender bites. You can choose from six heat levels, not including the "no spice" option. If you select the highest heat level, aptly named "Reaper," you'll need to sign a waiver acknowledging that body harm may occur. I ordered a single-slider meal with fries and chose the "mild" heat level. It made me sweat just a little, so I think I will increase the heat level on my next visit. The slider was well-seasoned and served on a potato bun with kale slaw, pickles, and Dave's sauce. It was also generously sized. There was a slight breeze on the patio, which completed the evening. All in all, it was a great casual dining experience. read more

Dave's hot chicken what a F###### disappointment! When Dave's hot chicken first arrived in Savannah I was so hyped and excited to try it. The first bite of the chicken tender just tasted like cajun and spicy seasonings! You can't even taste the chicken all you can taste is the seasonings. Plus after you eat this your stomach will hurt so much. This place is the worst chicken in America. Disgusting, disappointing. On top of the food being a## the staff is so lazy, took them 30 mins just to make some chicken tenders and the place wasn't even packed! The internet hypes this place too much. Dave's take my advice stop adding so much powder or Cajun to your chicken! Overhyped as h###. read more

First time at a Dave's Hot Chicken back in June... the chicken "sliders" are not small as the name might suggest and one slider with fries is enough to feel content. They also have a good signature sauce and adding honey to your tender or sandwich gives way to a new flavor dimension. I will say that I was surprised the sandwich itself seemed to be dry rubbed and heavy on the paprika-- it's good, but a different experience than what I'm used to with fried chicken sandwiches. Anything below medium doesn't have enough flavor. The pickles are a game changer and they always provide extra! read more

If on victory drive near the Truman Parkway definitely stop in and grab a bite. read more

Tonight I tried the newly opened Dave's Hot Chicken. Which opened in the space Tijuana Flats previously occupied on Victory Drive. I thought the Chicken was hot and fresh and the experience was pretty Cluckin' good. If you are new to Dave's as I was let me give you the low down. They only serve Chicken tenders, chicken tender sliders, Mac n' Cheese, Fries, and milkshakes. The Tenders come in a variety of spice levels from plain all the way up to reaper. I tried the medium and hot spice levels. I found the medium to be tasty and not too hot at all. The hot level is where I think things begin to heat up with a spice level that will coat your mouth and have you breathing fire. I can't imagine how spicy the reaper level to be but if you are daring...take the challenge. The lines is not as bad as one might assume and all members of my party moved through pretty fast. They had plenty of outdoor and indoor seating available. The tables were clean but I can't say the same for the windows and bathroom. Overall, they give you a lot of good freshly cooked food with a nice spice level. I would have given five stars if the cashier would have explained the menu better and expedited the process more. Good place to check out but I wouldn't go out of my way to get it. read more

I checked out the new location during a late night of needing to find something good to eat and it did not disappoint. I arrived around 11pm and the parking lot was heavy with traffic but the line only had about 15 people ahead of me. Between ordering and waiting to order it was about 30 minutes in and out. Unfortunately, due to it being late the shakes and slushies were not available. But the slider meal that I tried was DELICIOUS! The chicken was crispy, flavorful and moist. The cole slaw and sauce just made it better. I did also add some honey and it top it off. Fries were also crispy, fresh and delicious. read more

Been here 3 times since they've opened up and each visit has been great. Had no issues at all with the service, the people behind the counter are very nice. The chicken as you would expect is super good and full of mild/spicy flavor depending on what heat level you choose. The chicken is also very juicy and always pipping hot when brought out. Also really like the crispy crinkle cut fries that have a nice dusting on them. Then the Dave's sauce? Might be my favorite ever from a chain restaurant. Safe to say I'll be back multiple times a year and I'm glad we finally have a Dave's in Savannah. read more

Don't tell my mother but this was the BEST chicken I have EVER had!!!! I ended up getting the spicy chicken tenders with fries. Boy it had a KICK!

By 9:00 they had a line out the door! read more

Once I arrived the atmosphere was good a lot of people but most had their order so not too bad.The order line moved quickly which was great, BUT while waiting on my food several orders after me received their food , I waited after placing my order for a full 20 minutes, fries were cold , chicken was room temperature. The Kale salad was absolutely delicious. I'm not so sure I'll go back anytime soon. I thought the price was $$,But overall okay 6-10. I guess read more

Taki's Meets Chicken, horrific and terrible, absolutely the worst food I've eaten in my life! What on earth are people thinking??? No wonder there are 5 slushy machines glaring at you when you walk in, because this junk food will make you THIRSTY. We were drinking water for hours afterwards, plus, we could barely take a bite. Some kind of AWFUL dark red salt powder coating our food, wow!! All served with a slab of butter bread. People, READ about health in America - stomach cancer, high blood pressure. These corporations do NOT care about YOU, only your loyalty....I wouldn't feed this to a group of wild dogs... read more

I've been hearing good and bad things about the food. Some people like it and some people REALLY don't like it. I personally never had the chicken. I always order cauliflower. Mainly because you can get chicken ANYWHERE. I highly, highly recommend the loaded fries with cauliflower instead of chicken. It's filling and delicious. The cheese sauce on it is so good and pour honey on the cauliflower omg chef's kiss. read more

With all these people loving all these chicken places that have such bland and tasteless food need to go to Dave's Chicken shack. Every time I've been there we've been able to walk in get food with great service even when the line is long. It's always fresh always delicious and they don't mess around when they say that it's hot chicken. They've got some cool artwork on the walls and whatnot at the different places. And it's usually pretty noisy, and a lot of people there, but that's just cuz the food is so good. I'm not saying everybody will like it. But I love Dave's Hot Chicken shack read more

The food was excellent this is actually my 3rd time here. The only issue is their time. Waited 20 mins for 1 additional chicken tender...waited 20 mins for original order. read more

I can see why there's a line at 9:00 PM at night. They've figured it out. Good atmosphere, good prices, and great food. Impressed with the sliders at a Hot spice level. It wasn't an overbearing heat. I normally don't eat much, but that changed tonight. I'm glad there were 2. The key is just having a process to move through the line faster. Definitely not a complaint, it'll just help with revenue. Best of luck! read more

Great chicken place, service is amazing, everyone was super nice. The chicken is good but not Nashville good. Closest you can get not in TN. read more

chicken was disgusting and fries were not any better. Don't waste your money on the food here.

I came on a fairly busy afternoon soon after opening and it was below my expectations. While the service was fine, nothing to call home about the food was not good. I ordered a #1 and the chicken had no flavor, the dave's sauce had a terrible flavor. The only redeeming factor was the fries, they were great. I would not recommend this place to anyone that's hungry, it's way over hyped by tiktok and i won't be returning. read more

Happy Saturday to everyone! I arrived at Dave's around 10:10 this morning because I anticipated a line. Once I parked my car, there were 16 customers ahead of me. They promptly opened their doors at 10:30 to begin taking orders. The order line is very close to the front door, so a manager was standing there to not allow their ordering space to become overly saturated. The cashiers were processing orders as quickly as possible. However, I was unaware that they also sell non-alcoholic frozen drinks as well as milkshakes. Initially I was taken aback from their price structure because "their" combo only allows you to purchase 2 chicken tenders. Once I reviewed their menu, I was able to place my order at 10:46 and I received my food approximately 12 minutes later. I ordered 2 #4's (chicken tender sandwich and fries). So let's get to the part that matters the most: food taste and quality. The chicken tenders or chicken portions are significantly bigger than Zaxby's (no pun intended). Their 2 finger plate is the equivalent of a 4 tender plate at Zaxby's. I ordered the "hot" blend for mine and I picked the "mild" version for my son. When I tell you it was a flavor explosion in my mouth... OMG. The tender was flavorful, moist and had the closest flavor profile of Nashville hot chicken that I have tasted anywhere locally. The French fries are a meal into itself. They are crunchy and remind me of the old school Ore Ida fries I grew up eating as a child. In closing, the restaurant was clean and I loved the fact that I saw the servers utilizing gloves at all times. Overall if you're familiar with that portion of Victory Dr, park your vehicle carefully because the parking lot will get packed quickly. Thank you Dave's Chicken for opening up in the Greater Savannah market. You definitely have a new customer who will visit again very soon. 9.2 out of 10 read more
