First time at Dave's hot chicken restaurant! They have a variety of sliders, strips, and sandwiches, all served with fries and Dave's special sauce. I wasn't sure if I wanted hot or mild on the spicy scale, so I went with mild to be on the safe side. The lady behind the counter was super patient with me. The place was busy, and you could smell the amazing aroma of Dave's hot chicken. My sandwich was delicious, with just the right amount of spicy sauce and a perfect mix of ingredients, including pickles and Dave's special sauce. I'm definitely coming back to try the sandwich with a spicier flavor, like medium. read more

My husband and I popped in for a quick dinner before a movie. There was a line when we entered which moved quickly. We placed our order and were given a beeper for when it was ready. We both got single slider meals that came with fries. We both opted for a water cup to hydrate. I got lite mild and he got the next level up. The sandwiches came topped with coleslaw and pickles. The pickles were flavorful. The fries were well seasoned. The sandwich was ok. It was a large breaded chicken tender. I know they are known for the hot, hot hot, and super hot levels of seasoning, but I kind of expected the mild to have flavor as well. It was bland. My husband loved his meal. read more

Dave's Hot Chicken - Chicken Shop Near Me - Westminster, Colorado

We ordered pickup from Dave's Hot Chicken in Westminster. Overall, it was a great experience. We tried the hot, mild, and lite mild options. The boxes weren't labeled, so it was a bit of a guessing game figuring out which was which. That said, everything tasted absolutely delicious! The chicken was flavorful, juicy, and had the perfect amount of spice. The sauce that comes with it complements it very well. Our full order was ready on time, nothing was missing, and the staff member who helped me was friendly and efficient. The whole process was fast and easy, which made the experience even better. I would definitely order from here again and highly recommend it to anyone craving tasty chicken. read more

Wow, when you want Hot chicken then you need to come here! Most places say their "hot" is "hot" but there's no fooling around here. Definitely don't order hot if you think pepper is spicy lol The cheese on the tenders doesn't cool it down either. I loved the spice and the heat! The chicken was cooked perfectly - juicy and not dry. IMO it doesn't need the cheese but it was worth the try. I got the combo basket just to try a little bit of everything. They give you sauce in a side container but you can ask for extra if you love the sauce (or need it to dull the heat). Service was amazing. Everyone was so happy and friendly. Love to see it!! Location was in a small shopping area. Parking is limited and you might have to circle to grab a spot. Inside is a bit compact with many families grubbing but good turnout! read more

Dave's Hot Chicken - Dave's #3 1 Tender & 1 Slider w/ Fries - Chicken Shop Near Me - Westminster, Colorado

The employees were super nice and helpful. We liked that there were different levels of spicy for all of our tastes. Our kids got Not Hot, one person got Medium, and two got Hot and it was all great. The chicken sliders are huge, the tenders our giant, and you get a lot of food which helps with the price point. The fries were crispy, but they were just fries, not bad but not the best. We will definitely be back and recommend other people try it too. read more

Excellent customer service but nothing special about the food. Especially with such a high price point. Fries were also mushy. Ordered the Dave's #2 medium heat and felt like I overpaid for some over seasoned chik fil a. Would I go again? Maybe. But if I don't it won't break my heart. read more

The food was super good. I highly enjoyed it. The employees were nice and the price was right. We'll be back again at this clean location.

Becoming more popular of a chain restaurant! Dave's hot chicken hits the spot if you're craving some good filet tenders with heat. This location felt brand new with quick service and nice indoor and outdoor seating. Chicken was cooked well and the medium had enough heat for me. The sandwich was pretty basic as well as the fries but their special sauce helps add a little extra. Overall not a bad stop every once in awhile but hard to beat your classic chicken tender basket for the same price. read more

So immediately when you walk in you are greeted with the coolest graffiti art on the walls and it's so vibrant and just all around cool. Then you're immediately greeted with the best customer service I have seen in a long time. So I had to try this place because I kept seeing the viral videos of everyone saying it's the best chicken ever and the way it looked as well as the sauce. So when I was in the area and saw that it it was right next to Dave and busters, we opted to eat there vs Dave and busters. I ordered a Dave's number 1 which consisted of two chicken tenders (you choose your hotness I of course went with medium hoping it would be spicy but not too spicy), seasoned fries, yummy pickles m, two slices of white bread and their special sauce. Our food didn't really take no time to come out and it was very fresh. The chicken tenders were very crispy and juicy but I will say I was quite disappointed because of the hype, they really weren't all that amazing. They were just okay. I would give them a 6.5/10, the fries were absolutely delicious, the flavor and the crisp of them just delicious, I did like the sauce it was pretty good. I have no idea what it was made of. And of course the pickles were so yum! I love love pickles and these were perfect. Overall my experience was good service was beyond amazing. The food was good but not viral and go out of my way good. Would I go back, yes but only if it was on my way or in the area I'm shopping. read more

We were pleasantly surprised with how good the chicken was. Very tender crispy yet juicy! Great sides too!! Friendly staff and very clean!

Dave, you evil, evil dude. Yo chicken is HOT! Dave's is a pretty cool spot with some hot chicken. Menu options are pretty straightforward. I got the #3, which is a tender, a sandwich, and fries. I ordered mine hot cause I like the spice. The presentation of the food is decent; all your goodies come in a basket with a side of sauce. The chicken appears to be fried, sauced, and then shaken down with some dry spices, and let me tell you, hot means hot. I can not imagine the two hotter offerings as this level nearly melted my will to live. I'm talking, hot, like curse Dave's name for the next two days hot. Overall, it's good stuff, not Nashville Hot Chicken, nor do they claim to be. I made this connection and was expecting Nashville style, and it's close but less saucy. The place is clean and efficient. Red chairs and simple decor are what you should expect. The staff was super nice and helpful, which always makes me want to come back. read more

Alright the time has come. I get to try one of the other famous hot chicken places. In my mind the top three are Prince's, Hattie B's, and Dave's. In that order. I have tried the OG Prince's in Nashville and it was incredible. Exactly what hot chicken should be but honestly could be hotter (I ordered the straight hot when I went). Now, for Dave's. I got into this new location after placing a mobile order. The mobile order was super fast. I got to the counter to pick up and the counter person finished packing up an order (the place was full but not crowded) and a woman came in after me and the person at the counter proceed to help the woman first. Odd first impression of this place but I got helped by another counter person quickly after. I picked up my food and took it home. The meal was a good size and I think based on the amount of food you are getting, priced accordingly. My whole order consisted of the tender and slider combo with fries (both hot level), another tender and slider combo but with a medium tender and a hot slider (for my wife), a side of kale slaw, and two extra packets of Dave's Sauce though I got three which was cool. The chicken is...hot! I normally think that "hot" level is slightly lacking (unless maybe with Thai food) but this was actually what I would consider hot. It burned my lips and got my nose running by the end of the meal. It didn't burn my entire mouth and the heat disappeared after a bit of not eating. Exactly the spice level it should be. If you are unsure about your ability to handle heat, for sure go medium to be safe. I would for sure try the extra hot as well just to see how the heat levels up from the hot. All aspects of the meal were cooked very well. The slider was for sure my favorite between the tender and slider and on a repeat visit I would probably just get a slider or two. The slaw was good. Fries were good. Everything was really good...but not great. Does this place warrant a special trip if it is out of your way? Probably not. Is it better than the OG Prince's in Nashville? For sure not. The best way I can think about it is if you got mild or no spice it would be a slightly elevated Raising Cane's. Everything tasted fresh and was good but nothing stood out as a WOW. As I mentioned above though, I would eat here again. If you are a hot chicken fan don't miss this place. If you feel comfortable with the chicken shops that you already frequent, that is fine too. You aren't going to regret not going here. I enjoyed my meal though this go-round. read more

Service was very patient and answered all my questions since it was my first time. The inside was a little crowded in terms of seating. I felt like I was right on top of the people at the table over. I got a Dave's #1. It was 2 medium heat tenders, fries, no pickles, Daves sauce, and 2 pieces of bread. Chicken was very thick pieces and two was definitely enough. The flavor was nothing crazy and it was very messy if you eat with your fingers. Medium heat was similar to buffalo sauce heat. The fries were seasoned nice but needed a little salt. Bread was just plain white bread and no flavor. Dave's sauce was sweet but was missing some salt and umami. I got an Oreo topped milkshake and it was the same thing as an Oreo Mcflurry. Overall I wouldn't go back on my own but I wouldn't say no if friends wanted to go. read more

Dave's Hot Chicken - Dave's #1 2 Tenders w/ Fries - Chicken Shop Near Me - Westminster, Colorado

In a large mall, with lots of parking. Busy with other businesses. Clean interior, bathroom was very clean. Had higher hopes for the chicken. Got the chicken tenders which was spiced up with a spicy powder which we were not in love with. It kinda tasted like indian curry spice which was not what we were expecting. For the price, had thought that we'd get well marinated and seasoned spicy chicken. It's fine, but not meeting our expectations. One and done. read more

Great and fast service the food is nice and fresh even thought it's almost closing time. Jason was really great and his attitude makes it all the greater. read more

Definitely hot chicken!!! We stopped here for dinner after seeing the wonderful Insta pics from local foodies. The menu is fairly simple, with a handful of choices plus pick your heat level. We got the #2 combo, which was 2 sliders w/ fries. Even though they are called sliders, I'd say they are bigger than a typical slider, but smaller than a sandwich. You can opt to have each of your sliders a different heat level, if you'd like. We also added on a single chicken strip. For our sliders, we got medium and hot. For the strip, we got hot. The hot is definitely spicy for me, even though I'm used to eating spicy chicken. I don't think I could handle any hotter. Between the hot and medium, I'd say medium is well balanced and just slightly spicier than mild. Overall, I'd definitely recommend trying here for a quick bite of hot chicken! read more

Pleasantly surprised! If you're a fan of spicy fried chicken, this is a great quick option. The spice is no joke and the rub is really tasty. I like a fair amount of spice and mild was plenty for me, but it's nice you have options to add more or less. I got the single chicken tender that came with pickles, a slice of white bread and dipping sauce. My husband tried the sandwich and we enjoyed both. He also got the chocolate shake which was really good, super creamy and just the right amount of chocolate. I can't speak to the service or ambiance because we ordered delivery, but this will absolutely be a good staple for a quick bite at a reasonable price. Food was packaged safely and still hot when delivered. read more

Ehsan was amazing! Great customer service, I will definitely come back soon!! He was very friendly and made me feel so welcome:)

Waste of money!!! $20 for the #3 & a drink.... Would be ok if they didn't cake on the cheap (Indian style) seasoning. Completely ruined the chicken and I was burping up that terrible taste the rest of the day . Far too many other better & cheaper places to get chicken . The service however was great at this location ‍ read more

We came here for lunch today and we were first time customers. We were warmly greeted upon entry. The food came out very quickly and we very much enjoyed our meal. We had someone check on us two times while we were eating to ask how we were doing. It's been a while since I have had such lovely service. Yes I will be back because the food is good however, I will also return because it was such a delight to be surrounded by warm and welcoming people. read more

Parking is difficult but the food is awesome. Such a simple menu but it's so delicious. I like spicy food but I order the extra mild just to make sure it's not so hot! I have been ordering and picking it up and I have yet to have to wait. Food is always done, Hot and ready to go when I arrive. read more

4 stars just because the service was great! As my first time being at a Dave's Hot Chicken... I got a welcoming experience. Ok, so food-wise it was good, but I don't know about those prices for a chicken sandwich and fries. It's great for like a now and then to treat yourself. read more

I discovered Dave's Hot Chicken in Vegas a couple of months back and happy to find one right around the corner from my home now. Very good chicken, large filet portions (2 is enough). Very good fries. The place (just like the one in Vegas) was packed for good reason. read more

Ambiance is a typical Dave' s hot chicken - parking can be a bit cramped but not too bad. Service was excellent, did not have to wait, and food came out fresh and quick! I had both the hot and medium - if you like spicy, then this is a great place to get your fix! read more

The recipe is not southern. It's basically chicken tenders that have been powdered down with some red spicy powder. I didn't see anybody frying chicken in the restaurant. I guess it comes in frozen and then y'all microwave it. I guess if you've never had real fried chicken you don't know what to expect but let me tell you right now. It is not real fried chicken. Two people cost 30 bucks. Have a great day. read more

Yum! I don't usually like dry rub on my chicken but this stuff is so tasty! I got the tenders with medium spice which was perfect for me, and I dipped them in the Dave's sauce. I loved it! I also got the Mac and cheese which was creamy and delicious. Will definitely be back. read more

The best spicy chicken sandwich ever and don't forget the spicy ranch with ur fries.

Tried it for the first time and it definitely blew my expectations out of the water! We got the 2 slider combo and the service was great while ordering. The inside was very clean and pleasant as well. Tried the medium and hot levels. There is a big jump to hot so if you can't handle some heat I would stick to medium. We will definitely be back! read more

Hot is HOT. I have a high tolerance for spice and this was equal part fire and flavor. Food was ready quickly and we did to go. I've had Hattie Bs and Prince's and this is comparable- probably less oily/slightly drier on the outside but chicken is still very juicy. I haven't found too many quick/to go hot chicken places in the Denver Metro north area..this place hits the spot. read more

Nice clean restaurant people at the counter greeted us nicely helped us learn the menu. The only thing we noticed we took her granddaughter and they did not have a kids menu. Maybe that's not common so we had to buy a 10 piece $10 meal. Lot of food for an eight-year-old. Our food was good. We got two sandwich combo and shared it. The only negative was the fries were very seasoned, which was a lot of salt and other things. Overall, good experience nice place. read more

Service and communication was good. The chicken was very good too. Excellent customer service.

Holy craaaaap this food is good. I go here pretty often and it's bomb. 10/10 chicken bro. I love the dude who works here.
