    Interior

    It has been a few months since we've eaten here. We decided to stop in for lunch after shopping nearby. The restaurant was clean and staff friendly. Parking can be tricky as the lot is narrow and fills up fast because of all the businesses in the strip mall. We ordered the two slider meal with fries to share. We picked the no spice and mild for the sliders. It took a long time for our food, which was surprising since they weren't too busy at 11:30 on a Saturday. Our sliders were nice and hot, but our fries were lukewarm at best. The sliders were yummy, but fries were disappointing. Overall a decent experience. We left satisfied, but not extremely like last time. Hopefully they'll work on their quality control. Would definitely try again though.

    My friend and I came here on a Thursday night at 10PM and there were a good amount of folks sitting. The server was friendly and asked us if this is our first time here. Then she proceed to take our order. We ordered the -#3, which is one tender and one slider to share. The interiors is similar to other Dave's location. The food came out in a timely manner and the spiciness of the chicken was no joke! The tenders were moist and the spice was a good level. We will be back in the near future to try out more options.

    Friendly service, the only thing that felt a little weird was when paying with the card, I didn't see a skip option. Maybe there was that I missed but I usually prefer to tip with cash after I get my order. I lost the picture I thought I took of my food. But just fyi. The sliders are more like smallish burger bun size and the chicken tender is twice as big. Think triple the size of a slider. Taste was on point too. I'd go back.

    Friendly service, clean restaurant and yummy food! I went for the hot today and really enjoyed it! It was definitely hot but yummy! The sauce, honey and pickles are great compliments to the chicken.

    Love coming here but next time I think I'll just get it to go. The music was just way too loud. But the restaurant is clean and bright. Our food came out fairly quickly and the employees are always nice, they always give me extra sauce. I got the spicy tender and slider combo with kaleslaw instead of fries. I do enjoy their fries but like to switch it up every once in a while. The chicken was spicy and juicy and I absolutely love putting extra Dave's sauce and honey on my slider. I do wish that they would put a little more slaw on the slider though because mine barely came with any.

    Been coming to Dave's for a couple years now, it's never disappointing! The inside of this Dave's has an unbelievable aura with a warm and friendly inviting atmosphere. The staff is extremely friendly and they work extremely fast on getting your food out as well. Chicken is juicy with a bunch of heat levels depending on what you can handle. PS- Oct 24, free Dave's slider for Drakes Bday!!!

    Finally got a chance to eat here. I got the single slider, spice level, hot. I got the Mac and cheese as my side. It was the perfect level of spice and hot combined. It was very enjoyable! The Mac and cheese is very creamy. Dave's special sauce is very addictive. I could probably put it on everything. Tons of seating indoor and outdoor. Very clean and lots of parking. When it gets busy you might have to park on the side as the lot gets a lot of business with other restaurants. Extremely friendly and informative staff. She explained everything to me and asked me level, side, drink etc. Her name was Kelly, she was fantastic. Everyone that was working was great and professional. All the workers are very well trained and informed. They gave my son a sticker too. We will be back!

    #3 Slider with chicken tender and fries.  Yumm

    Food was great. I love the medium spice on the chicken. The sauce is a good addition as well. The service isn't anything special though. I ordered the Dave's # 3 and paid. The cashier didn't mention that I needed to order a drink separately. It was fairly quiet in there this evening, nice atmosphere.

    #Dave's #3 1 Tender & 1 Slider w/ Fries
    Julie E.

    One of the best place for a chicken sandwich. People who love spicy tend to love this place even more. Chicken is tender and it's natural (not processed chicken like most). Love #3 with the slider and add cheese which is an actual cheese slice on super soft bread and pickles. Fries are just ok crinkle fries. Not my favorite kind. Not into the on top shakes. This location isn't as loud as the Seattle location. Plenty of seating and walls painted by local artist in graffiti style. Staff was super helpful in ensuring there were no corn products for my cousin that has an allergy.

    Spendy for a family of 4 but very good! Drinks sold separately. Good size tenders. The sauce is delicious and the pickles are chefs kiss!!

    One slider and Mac n cheese
    Camille H.

    It's nice to have a Dave's hot chicken in Vancouver now. Last time I went even around lunch time it wasn't horribly busy. Service is efficient and the staff is friendly. I personally prefer the sliders over just getting the tenders. Not a huge fan of the plain slice of bread with the tenders. Sauce is good, fries are good, as well as the Mac n cheese. Nothing is super fancy but it is at least good! Chicken is tender and fries are crispy. The pickles are so good, part of my favorite thing there. Fun and funky inside dining and they have a nice large outdoor dining area. It's definitely worth a try!

Plus, I love going into places where the employees seem genuinely happy to work there & this place is no different. We were greeted warmly, questions were answered & in spite of ordering at a counter, they didn't forget about us. They brought drinks & silverware to the table, then checked up on us a couple of times during our meal. They have a menu with several choices, the portions were generous enough that we had plenty to bring home for another meal. If you're into "clean eating", this is a great example. The food and sauces aren't OVERLY salted or seasoned, but just right. You can taste the actual flavors of the food, which was so refreshing! I've included pictures of their current menu & the dishes we ordered. We're definitely looking forward to visiting again!

The first time they had nice big chunks of chicken breast that were charred just right. This time it was just chicken strips and I felt that they barely grilled them. There wasn't much charred taste to them. I tried the plain garlic sauce this time. it was OK, but I really liked the spicy garlic sauce that I got in my the first Gyro better. It was more flavorful.. I also got a small order of their fries. Must say the fries were pretty good. However, at over $17 ane charge ,before tip, I don't feel it's worth that much. I noticed us when you look at the photos from the reviews some of the chicken chunks look more grilled and charred than other times.. I guess it depends on who works there. Too bad they're pretty inconsistent. That's exactly why I will not be coming back.

I discovered it when I saw an influencer in Portland gushing about their brunch. Although my schedule didn't allow me to partake in the limited hours brunch, I still wanted to go try it. The decor was nice and gave the whole space a cozy and intimate feeling. My best friend and I shared a couple dishes which I can't fully recall but I know we had lamb and I believe a mezza type platter. Of all the places we ate out at during this trip, this was our favorite. The owner's son was our server and he was really friendly and we talked about how we wished they'd open a branch in Seattle! Still hoping! :p Finally, we got a biscoff cheesecake and I make a very good biscoff cheesecake myself, but my bestie said theirs was better. I will neither agree or disagree with said statement. Anyway, looking forward to the day I get to return for more delicious food!

    BEST MEAL IN PORTLAND!!!!!…read more Saw this place randomly while looking for a place to eat after a long flight. It was late and not many places were open. This place was closed but a middle eastern place that serves cheesecake was soo intriguing that i knew i needed to come back. Came back Saturday night and they had no tables and was packed. However, they tried to accommodate us so much. However, the night was in our favor. As we started to order take out, a lady was kind enough to give up her table since she was eating alone. It was a small table for 3 people but the staff was sooo accommodating i have no words. They even gave free dessert to the lady who was kind. Then luck would have it, the table next to us never showed up for their reservation so they gave us that table. Finally, we ordered. Turned out, i also got the last shawarma too. Everything happens for a reason! We also got the Saudi chicken kabsa and cheesecakes. The biggest compliment i can give is when the food came, none of us talked for a good 5-7 mins and just sat there in heaven eating. The flavors were soo unique but yet so familiar. If this is Saudi food, i have been missing out. I need to explore more sub categories of middle eastern cuisine. Best bites in Portland for us and that's all i have to describe our experience. Finally, got the Nutella cheesecake and almond caramel cheesecake. I have to say, Nutella was good but easily a skip compared to almond and caramel. Just get 2 of those and you'll be happy. The cakes itself are light and not heavy. They were great end to a great meal. This is a family owned but family loved business. You can see the love as they serve their guests but you can taste the love too. The people are soo sweet and kind and just want to serve you. Please give your love here, because if i lived in Portland, this would my weekly spot.

As i approached the building, I noticed that it was full of people. I fell into the street. I was in and out of consciousness.

He told me that they would clean off a table for me. WOO HOO. I bursted out crying at the thought that I finally got my seat. As I sat down a soft chair graced my bottom. Beautiful. I looked around and the scenery was beautiful. As I looked at the menu, my eyes sharply turned to the chicken and waffles. Deliciously perfect choice. I ordered my food and got a coffee. My chicken and waffles arrived and I took a bite. I started floating. My soul left my body. I looked down at my body as I floating away, I was enjoying every bite. I reached the heavens. A loud voice said "Its not your time yet. Return and enjoy the rest of your meal." I ascend back to the chair and every chicken and every waffle was gone. The servers were SO kind.
