    I always enjoy a visit to any Dave's chicken. I can never get tired of this place. Best chicken sandwich in my opinion and that sauce is amazing!!!

    Stopped into the new location. First visit to Dave's Hot Chicken. Since they just opened this location 2 days prior we knew it would be busy. It was but we stayed and waited. The new employees were nice and obviously still learning the menu and registers. They were very friendly and took our order and answered all our questions about the menu. We waited a few minutes for our food but everything came out hot and right. The sandwiches were yummy! Chicken was nice I got the lite mild. Hardly any spice might move up next time. Love the pickles and Dave's sauce. Mac and cheese was good too. Can't wait to come back when the crowds die down a little.

    Tasty chicken

    I'm picky about my chicken sandwiches. Somehow they have been able to season the chicken just so the chicken is tender and moist and with each bite it is just heavenly. The service is OK. The ambience is relaxed casual. The parking lot can be a little tricky. The disabled parking is very close to the exit for the drive-through so that can be problematic. a lot of teenagers get lunch there so there's a lot of coming and going. It's busy. I love the chicken slider. It has some kale coleslaw and some pickles on it and some of their sauce. I will definitely be a repeat customer.

    The restaurant looks new and was pretty clean. The guy at the counter was friendly. The chicken was pretty tasty, but I was hoping for more of a wet sauce as opposed to dry seasoning on the tenders. The "Dave's" sauce is good...but I don't know what these Ohio chicken joints won't serve BBQ or ranch. The pickles are great!

    If you like Dave's Hot Chicken, this is a great restaurant. The staff was well trained. The food came out quick, accurate, and hot. The store was clean and well-stocked. If you don't know this restaurant and like chicken fingers, it's worth trying. This is especially true if you like spicy chicken. Our favorite part was the fries. They had a great seasoning on them. Second was the sauce- it was like a mix of mayonnaise and ketchup. I got a 'hot' slider. I thought the flavor was great and loved it. I bought 2, but probably only needed one. My son bought a chicken tender with no heat. He thought it was a little too plain. If he bought it again, he'd get in with extra mild, to add some flavor. One thing to note- it's pretty expensive. I bought the 2 sliders mean for $13. It didn't come with a drink. My son bought 2 tenders and a soda. For the 2 of us, it cost $30. Also, they wanted to charge me for a cup of water for a lid. A manager stepped in and said not to worry about it, but- seems a little petty if you're dropping $30 on a meal. All in all, Dave's is worth a try. Personally, my son and I prefer the chicken at Hot Chicken Takeover a little better. But, I really liked the flavor of my chicken here.

    CATERING!! I have been a fan of Chicken Salad Chick since…read morethe beginning. SO DELICIOUS!!! Recently you catered my Dad's Celebration of Life Service. It was perfect! Your food is incredibly delicious! Your customer service is outstanding. I truly appreciate you! Everyone was raving about the food. I wish I could hand out your biz cards at the funeral, but that's kinda tacky! I highly recommend Chicken Salad Chick for it all! Oh and- Don't skip on their soups or desserts!

    This is a good little heathy food spot…read more I drove by one day, Yelppies suggested. I stopped by, it was early in morning, the place was empty, I saw couple of deliveries people picking up their food, the staffs was friendly, I read over the menu, I actually forgot what I ordered, because this review is way past due, maybe 3 weeks past due. But I do remember is one of them combo But first thing first, the two ladies behind the counter is really nice and friendly, I love dealing with an adult instead of those younger generation that don't care for their customers, just show up for their paycheck, if you know what I mean. Lady that serving me asked if I need some suggestion or help for recommendations, very nice and friendly. I ordered (once again I can't remember the name). The sandwich itself is very good, came with side of fruit as you can see on my photo, like I mentioned before, is a good healthy lunch, not too big of the portion. The reason I'm giving it 4 stars instead of 5 is because couple of my grapes gone bad, they should have checked and take them out before serving to the customer. Because they claim they make the orders when it comes in, so the kitchen should have spot it Overall, definitely recommend and will go back

They also have a catering menu next to their regular menu! I also added regular fries and the spicy fries. They gave me a beeper #16 that will buzz when my food is ready. I took a seat in front of the register. Then things went south. The food was taking soooo long. I kept staring at the cooks, salivating, checking the time, checking my beeper, patience sure is a virtue! A few people got their food and let me tell you, it looked amazing! About 20 mns. Later...a gentleman asked me for my ticket number. He waved me up front and said my food had been ready for 10 mns. I guess the beeper was not working. No apologies given...customers service not on point. Well, that needs to be fixed: beeper and service. I went home and devoured my burger with my family. It was so good even cold. The burger had a very thin black burnt patty sticking out of the large bun. It was One of the best burgers around next to Five guys. I air-fried my soggy fries. Not too bad. They both tasted good. I liked the oil they were fried in! I found 2 $10 off coupon in the bag,not sure if they snuck it in after they forgot about me or everyone gets them; but it put a bandaid on my wound. I would like to return and try their chicken next time. I will probably order ahead, lesson learned. It would be a perfect 5 stars if I didn't wait soooo long and the staff was nicer.

The hamburger patty was cooked perfectly medium, so that was good. We also ordered the chips and queso. We enjoyed the queso, but most of the chips were broken and nearly burnt. I ordered the chicken sandwich. It was dry, and I couldn't taste the special sauce. The chocolate whiskey cake was dry AF and the sauces and toffee couldn't mask that. The cheesecake was missing the potato chips. The cheesecake itself was a dense NY style, but the actual cheesecake flavor was lacking. That being said, we didn't dislike the food, but they really need to quality check the food before they send it out! It would've been so good if everything was made right! There were things missing, and there were things that should have not been served, like the tortilla chips and the whiskey chocolate cake.

It was a good bit north of "well done." I asked for no pickle and got pickle. I really don't like the taste of pickle, but was not going to ask for a new burger just because it has some pickle juice on it. The bun was nicely grilled. I was not sure whether to get sweet potatoes fries or regular fries and the cashier offered a mix. I liked that and both types of fries were very good -- served hot and seemed like they were cooked in fresh and clean oil. The regular fries had just a touch of breading or batter, I think. The fries were the best part of my meal. No fountain soft drinks and just a soda in a can for $2. That's definitely a point against them. The store was extremely clean and it looks like they had good desserts. They have egg for their burgers which is a plus for me. They bill themselves as halal-friendly, that's good. Lots of vegetarian choices on the menu.
