I love Dave's Hot Chicken. It's a great value and very satisfying. After a night of drinking, this place really hits the spot. We were staying nearby so we went to this location in Springfield. I'm so happy they have later hours. We had the Dave's #1which was 2 tenders with fries but we subbed out the fries for mac n cheese. Good choice. Creamy mac n cheese. Also had the Dave's #3 which was 1 tender and 1 slider with fries. We kept the fries on this order and they were pretty good as well. The fries come with a nice dipping sauce as well. I even used it for my chicken. The chicken portions are fairly good sized and have the right amount of hotness to it as you can choose your heat level. One of us did mild and the other medium. The prices are also reasonable. I like the interior decorating with all the graffiti colors everywhere. Great place.

Well I was so excited for Dave's hot chicken in Springfield, Oregon to finally open. It felt like forever, watching the building being built. Then it took forever for the concrete to be poured. Then the parking stripes. We would drive by every day just to see if there was a sign saying open. By now you've already figured out, that me and my husband love chicken! I would say we are chicken connoisseurs. I felt the ambience there was super upbeat and friendly. It was bright and energetic. The staff was outgoing and made sure they came to our table to check on us not once, but twice. I loved their Customer Service. Very on top of every detail. I did find the chicken not as I expected. It was far spicier than I anticipated. Now that might be my fault. I should've probably read the reviews about the spice level. Be careful when you order or you will burn your lips off. The fries were the best fries I've had in ages! I try not to have fries too often because I used to have an addiction to them. I gave them up for almost 2 years, but at Dave's, I found myself ordering fries with my chicken tenders. I wish I wouldn't have done that because now I think about those fries every day! Please try Dave's Hot Chicken in Springfield, Oregon but I'm warning you to possibly look into the spice level and where you'd like to be. Probably might be more on the mild side. I'm never into dipping sauces. I like my chicken just simply chicken. But for some reason, I tested out the chicken sauce that comes with every chicken order. That was superb! I don't even want to know what the calorie range was for something so creamy and delicious. I can't figure out what it was made of, but it definitely was worth it for whatever calories it is. I wish I would've taken a picture for you, but I was so hungry. We ate it way too fast. After we were cleaning up, I thought boy that Chicken was so pretty. I should've taken a picture. Enjoy the Dave's Hot Chicken in Springfield, Oregon. Springfield, definitely needed a new fresh vibrant restaurant in this town.

Mac & Cheese

The tenders are crunchy, meaty, and delicious-medium spice is nice. Good service. Ambiance-it's a chicken restaurant, so don't expect a lot of it. Fries-yum! Mac & cheese is creamy-another place to get Mac and cheese. Pickles aren't bad. But there's one thing I love with tenders-where is the ranch? I love my ranch dressing! We need a ranch dressing that is savory! The Dave's sauce isn't bad, but it's not ranch.

The drive through was... is so slow I'm writing this in the line. I have never been through a line this slow. I sure hope the food makes up for it. I would have just gone inside.

Single Slider - Hot

Got the hot single slider and it was so good we ate it in the parking lot and pulled straight through the drive thru to get another one. Was helped by Lucas originally and he was exceptionally nice and helped us with deciding what we wanted. Military discount is 50% off so that means order more! It's well worth it. When we went back through the drive thru was helped by Bree and Vincent and they were very nice helpful and funny. Great experience overall, I live 2 hours away and it's so good I'm willing to make the drive once a week just to get this chicken. Amazing seasoning and great spice level if you're a spicy food connoisseur.

The service was absolutely phenomenal! The first time my boyfriend and I visited this location we ordered through the mobile app. I was planning on making a Pickup order and simply going through the drive-thru to pick it up... (Similar to McDonalds and how their app works) Shoutout to Venus for giving us a wonderful experience during the order process! She was AMAZING!!

Customer Service was great! Front counter employee was very kind and came around and asked how our food was. The food was delicious. Thanks Dave's Hot Chicken. I'll be back!

First time at Dave's. I'm a believer! Great food and great value. A single slider was more than enough food for a quick lunch.

I come in here weekly with my husband. It is a great place…read more This is one of those hidden gems that is amazing. The customer service is always on point. It is abundantly clear the owner loves his business and will talk to you about basically anything, give tips, helpful recipes, and so much more. I'm a food blogger and so I love talking about recipes with him, but he is great with food styling too, and makes sure if I'm using whatever meat for a blog recipe that it's absolutely perfect. All I have to do is ask, and it's done. They run weekly specials, and it's always a great way to stock the freezer. The specials rotate too, so it is different each week. We also really love the ribeye steaks, which are perfect for a stay home date night meal. They also make food there like sandwiches and other things. Which I often forget, but the owner can absolutely cook. His baked beans are a favorite of mine, and I generally hate beans, which says something to me. Would I return? Absolutely. This is easily one of my favorite small local businesses to get behind and support. The customer service and product are always on point. I've never had a bad experience here, and I always look forward to stopping in with my husband. Review 23 of 2025.

You get some friendly advice, a little neighborhood gossip, and your meat nicely wrapped in brown paper. The great thing about Benedetti's is they also have a small lunch counter and grill offering up classic east coast deli sandwiches like chicken parmigiana, Reubens, and more. I stopped in for a quick lunch based on the recommendation of fellow Yelper Mark M., and I couldn't be more appreciative of his advice! The cook was super friendly and we chatted up a storm while he prepared my turkey club with bacon and avocado. He grilled the turkey, which came as a surprise to me... but I loved it! They don't have indoor dining at the moment, so I took my lunch to a nearby park and had an amazing time. If you find yourself in Springfield or Eugene, stop by Benedetti's for a little nostalgia and a full and happy belly!

The Lucky Lizard - Tri tip steak

My daughter had a doctor appointment and it was lunch time when all was done. While standing in…read morethe parking lot I looked around and noticed a building with bright yellow writing that said, "Lucky Lizard". So we went to see what it was all about. Upon entering the place I noticed a few signs mentioning they had video poker. That instantly made my gut wrench giving me a flash back of Jasper's "deli" off delta.....We entered and they did have poker machines.....but maybe only 5 and they were in a small confined area completely away from the food. The inside was clean and seating looked rather limited. All of their sandwiches were 5.95 or under. Had a selection of about 8 sandys or you could get a bowl of teriyaki chicken for about $6 too. I went with the Tri-Tip sandwich being I love tri-tip!! My wife got a turkey avocado cranberry that was served on a croissant. We got our daughter a little bit of Ambrosia salad to snack on. Daughter loved dipping her pickle in the salad and eating it....She's watched daddy eat too many steak fries at Red Robin I guess! Ok.....So I guess I'll say it even though I don't want to being the guy working behind the counter was VERY friendly, VERY nice, VERY helpful.....That tri-tip sandwich was bunk. Infact I started the review with 3 stars due to great customer service, but that sandwich couldn't keep that 3rd star up. I would give them 5 stars on cleanliness and customer service, but as for the food? ahhh i'm sorry. It's a 1 star sandwich honestly. The tri tip didn't have any great flavor to it what so ever. It reminded me of a sub-par roast beef deli meat. The gentleman working asked if it was our first time in there and we said yes, so he gave us a generous sample of their teriyaki chicken. It was ok....VERY VERY LEAN meat. Which was really nice. I didn't see one piece that had fat in it. Same for my wife's sample. He gave us a sweet chili sauce to put on it which did add a good taste to it. So I hate to kick down only 2 stars after great service and a nice sample of chicken.......But really, when it comes to how the sandwiches tasted neither of us were even close to happy with it. We didn't have the heart to tell the guy we didn't like them. And it could get spendy quickly being all side items are a la carte. 3 bucks for the salads, 1.50 for the chips, dont know the cost of drinks being we got complimentary water.

After driving by the lucky lizzard several times I had time to stop today. We had the tri tip…read moresandwich and a grilled chicken wrap. The best sandwich in town!! We will be back

She's a local and has worked at some of the best coffee shops in Eugene, and you can tell. She knows her craft always great service. The coffee art is always on point, and the service is consistently great. I actually check to see when she's working because I know it'll be dialed in. I'm vegan and there are plenty of options, which I appreciate. I had the Lovely Bowl this time -- fresh, flavorful, and filling without feeling heavy. Their juices are amazing too. Everything tastes clean and fresh. Kudos to the kitchen for how efficient they are -- food comes out quick and well done every time. I've had both breakfast and lunch here and it's all been solid. Sat outside with my dog, who loves hanging out and chilling while I drink my coffee. It's a clean, relaxed space and just easy to enjoy. What a lovely place. I'll keep coming back -- especially when Emily's behind the bar.

No complaints from any family members, and my meal was absolutely delicious. I got it to go since I had the pups with me (great place to take them out for a walk). Clean streets. Lots of grassy area and art sculptures in the back of the building. The restaurant has indoor sitting, outdoor heating and not heated outdoor area. Two bathrooms. Parking lot and street parking available. Busy during our visit but they had lots of sitting and games to entertain the family. One thing I really appreciated is that a lot of the dishes let you add avocado instead of it being automatically included. Since I can't have avocado due to an allergy, having it as a side option was perfect. Meanwhile, my kiddos love avocado, so they happily added it. Everything we had tastes fresh. Overall, it's a great stop when you're traveling to the coast--easy, family-friendly, and satisfying.
