I'm giving this place five stars. I've been coming here for a long time, and last night reminded me why. I came in starving after a concert, and Lori and Gavin were awesome super friendly, quick with the service, and just genuinely good people. The food hit exactly how it needed to, and the whole experience felt easy and welcoming. This spot has always been reliable, and employees like them make it even better. read more

My wife and I went into Crazy D Hot Chicken and ordered the BBQ smash burger , crazy fries , Mac and cheese and chef Leo's amazing new Asian zing sauce wings. Let me tell you the food is off the chart so good and satisfying. Everything was so fresh and cooked to perfection. Not to mention great customer service. We will definitely be making sure this is a weekly date night. read more

Friendly staff. Waited about 15mins for my food but worth the wait. Spent $37 bucks. We got a spicy two piece and little piece of chicken and sides for kid. Lifelong crazy D fan and customer. From gas station beginnings in my belly to the location in front of Atlantis also in my belly Will return by far best local hot chicken in Reno read more

Crazy D’s Hot Chicken - Combo #1 - 2 Giant Tenders with Fries CrAzY Fries!! Mac & Cheese - Chicken Shop Near Me - Reno, Nevada

Count your days. This used to be good now it's strait garbage. Fries not cooked, at all. Tenders are cut in half so it's like you are really getting 1 in a two piece combo. Before they were massive. Giant? Nah. Tiny is more like it. Chicken had no seasoning medium looked like country. Sauce still slaps but that's cause you cant mess up a simple recipe. Count your days... read more

DO NOT ORDER ANYTHING VIA DOORDASH WITH THESE GUYS. Your order will be soggy and missing items. A word of advice to the manager: if a customer orders DoorDash delivery. Keep the slaw OFF the sandwich or it's going to be soggy. And have a checklist for to-go or DoorDash orders....does it have forks, knives, napkins, straws, etc. don't let these little college kids ruin your business read more

I ordered 2 two piece tender combos, 2 orders of wings, an order of crazy mac, and 2 ranches on Uber Eats. I only received the tender combos. The uber driver said that's all he got from them so I called D's and sure enough they confirmed they had the other half of my order there. When I asked how they can remedy this they told me I can pick it up and that they had to go because it was busy so they hung up. The portions are sized plenty fine, especially how how relatively cheap it is. But the breading is soggy more than anything else and lacking flavor. 1/10 Also I am suspicious the the two recent 5 star reviews on this place. Both accounts only have one review? Yeah right read more

Came for a visit 7/26/2026. Small parking lot that has a dumpster only two parking stalls from front door, it smelled horrible. Place had its roll up door open on a super hot day, and flies everywhere. The staff were super friendly, the girl that took my order was her 3rd day there and she was awesome. The food wasn't that good. The Mac n cheese was so plain, no flavor. Along with the patty that came on top of the Mac. Buffalo wings were good at least. Don't think I'll be back. read more

Good size portions. Too bad they cant get your order right....even when its typed on the ticket. Asked for no sauce and slaw...Sliders are swimming. Fries are cold and hard. Asked for different hot levels in the 4 sliders we got negative. Dirt on the floors and walls everywhere. Fries in a basket on the fryer waiting for orders. Not bothered to be reheated. Tables inside replaced by overflowing storage cabinets. Looked for a Health Department result while waiting. Didn't see a recent one. When did this place go so downhill? read more

We ordered two crazy Mac's from the store and without any notice or contact from the store they replaced them both with crazy fries instead. We called the store to tell them what happened and they told us how it was substituted, and then we informed them that we would like a refund or a discount because that is not what we ordered and if they had told us it was out of stock we would have canceled our order and ordered it from another location. But the employee said we already had our food, and he doesn't know what to tell us. We will not be ordering from that location ever again. read more

This has been our fan favorite lately. We love the crazy fries and the sliders especially. The coleslaw is served fresh and so yummy. The chicken has the right amount of batter and is the right amount of crispy. They have the best sauce for the chicken that adds to the whole meal. The music was pretty loud when I came in but all in all, the food was great and the employee was kind. read more

Place an order and they forgot to make one of the items. By the time my food was done the rest was getting cold. The smash burger fries were bland all around and after a few bites had to stop because it just wasn't it. Not sure if this was due to them rushing to make the missing order or what? Also not enough meat for my liking. Might give them another try in the future to see if things have improved but very doubtful. Parking is very limited as well. read more

Personally I have had hit or miss meals. When not over cooked the chicken tenders are juicy and good, but if not they can be dry and hard to eat. The toast was really thin, would have preferred it cooked a little less. Food took 30 mins for two meals, make sure you check your order ours was wrong had to call and get refunded for a whole side that was missing. read more

I've been stuck at home recovering from an injury and Crazy D's has become my new indulgence. Lately we've been DoorDashing from here at least once a week (judge all you want, I have no shame). The Crazy Fries are magical. They're loaded fries covered in chopped up fried chicken tenders, and then smothered in cheese sauce, crazy D's house sauce, and a seasoning that reminds me of old bay. They're unlike anything you've ever had and so dang delicious. I order the mild and my husband orders the hot. They don't label the containers so if you order two different spice levels just look between the two and you'll be able to tell which one is more hot. read more

I pass by this place everyday and decided to stop in a try out the chicken. Walked in and noticed how everything was just filthy. Everything just seemed really dirty...so I walked right back out.... I'm good. I will pass. By reading some of the comments here maybe the health department needs to do an inspection or something. I guess college kids don't give a f$&k what they eat.... I couldn't do it! read more

This place is terrible, I have no clue how it even has any stars. From the cashier with the wet cardboard personality, the overly strong and sickly smelling plug in air freshener wafting through the air, to the overpriced and bland chicken they sell I question how anyone likes this place when Dave's Hot Chicken is up the road in Sparks. I hate to be so critical but the vibe just felt off from the moment I walked in. I should have trusted my gut and left but I wanted to try a different place to eat and left 35 bucks poorer and threw away my Tender Box order after trying to eat one tender. The batter just tasted old and oddly unseasoned despite asking for hot as the level of spice. read more

Better than Dave's chicken place but I ordered some through DoorDash and got a month old chicken for my sandwich.. old and stale thanks a lot read more

Ordered through DD and they gave me old, soggy chicken and fries. 100% probably another order that didn't get picked up or cancelled. Worst part is the kids working night shift blamed it on day shift and when I called the next day they blamed it back on their night shift. At least DD made it right bit I think I'm done with this place as it's the second time they gave us nasty chicken and soggy fries. read more

$25 for a 3hrs+ wait, unseasoned fries, burnt chicken, burnt toast, and everything is cold too. This is not the first time this has happened, do yourself a favor and get yourself some chicken from anywhere else. read more

Ordered a 6 count of chicken. Ordered them medium, they came sauceless. I paid for extra dipping sauce, they only gave me the ones they paid extra for. This isn't the first time this location has screwed up a basic order. Last time this location gets my business. read more

I had the pleasure of attending a huge Yelp elite event with 75 +/- food and drink vendors. It was great! I was happy to see Crazy D's there. They were giving away huge chunks of fried chicken tenders, with their must-have signature sauce. Of alllllllll those vendors at the event, Crazy D's was one of the best BY FAR! I've been a big fan for a long time. The University Terrace location is small but mighty, pretty efficient too. read more

Been a bit since eating here. Too tired after work to cook. I remembered the Crazy fries here and decided this to eat here. I do like the flavors of the sandwiches and the fries. But post Covid prices has just gone insane. on their menu they have four chicken sliders for $30. no fries, no drinks. The cargos a family pack... My biggest complaint is the prices. 3 chicken Sammy's, fries and crazy fries = $45. I just don't think 1 chicken sandwich is worth $8.50. But it is really good food!!! read more

Absolute garbage!! I love the location in Spanish Springs and I was at work so I thought I'd try this location, couldn't be much different right? WRONG 1/2 the amount of fries I usually get, I got the chicken wings they were undercooked on the outside so fatty and globby not crisp the Parmesan garlic was non existent. Shame on you Never again read more

Always super filling and great quality I always get the crazy fries it's def enough for two people and worth it!!! read more

Food was good but not great in my opinion... maybe it was because it was the end of day?? Chicken was somewhat dry but had good flavor. Ordered carry out and service was friendly. read more

We were starving after a day of gambling & drinking. Nothing was open and this place looked good. Ordered the combo with 2 chicken sliders & fries. Was good . Employees were super chill. read more

The Giant Slider I got doesn't really match the other pictures and reviews here... so I added a pic. The tender was 1/3-1/2 the size of the bun, it didn't extend past the bun, and there wasn't any coleslaw. I ordered medium, and it really didn't have any spice to it. My son, a fried chicken aficionado, ordered combo #1 and commented that the tenders were much smaller than usual. On a positive note, the service was fast and friendly. read more

Worst customer service. They answered the phone and then forgot that they had placed me on hold for a good while. I hung up while patiently waiting. Tried calling them again and the line was busy. I tried calling them 15 mins later and they still put me hold after I explained what had happened. read more

Not a bad chicken sandwich, might try again, but maybe #4 on my list. No good seating tho so 1 less star, employee's take up most of the bar charging their phones and using as a take out table. Service is a bit slow and mostly pick up, so i wouldn't tip again. read more

Best location for the crazy Mac and the server May is amazing. Definitely check them out and say hi to May!!! read more

We called 3 times prior to arrival. No answer. Walked in, and the server interrupts the order to go answer the phone..... ??? Frustrating and pretty rude, especially since our calls went unanswered. Anyway, we placed an order. We added on coleslaw for $3 and when we got home and opened the box, the coleslaw was literally just shredded cabbage! No dressing, no seasoning, no nothing. Highly disappointing. Can't speak on the interior of this place, but yikes at this experience. read more

Crazy D’s Hot Chicken - Dry coleslaw and 1 chicken tender - Chicken Shop Near Me - Reno, Nevada

A go-to place for a late night bite or any time you're craving a mean chicken tender slider. It's cool to see how this place has expanded to multiple locations throughout they city. Compared to other hot chicken places in town (not considering mainstream fast food chains), I'd say their menu is more affordable. And that's actually the reason why my sister and I ended up coming here to grab dinner. The place is small and I consider it a more "grab and go" place. We put in an order on the phone and the person who took my order was very nice. I often get a level lower than my usual spice tolerance because I found this chain to be inconsistent with their spice level. Sometimes you get a tender less spicy or more spicy than you ordered. Ex. we ordered a country style tender for my stepmom but it was still spicy; another time, we ordered a medium tender and it wasn't spicy enough. Crazy D's isn't my favorite hot chicken spot but it's enough to get the job done. read more

Isaiah was goated and great at serving. There's no other way to describe his service other than fantastic

Great customer service also and Byron was really nice with good customer service and the food came out really fast and good.

We found this place on uber eats, very happy that we decided to come here! The food was excellent! I highly recommend this establishment. Went with the sliders, onion rings, and crazy fries. Thank you read more

Crazy D’s Hot Chicken - Combo #2 - 2 Giant Sliders with Fries - Chicken Shop Near Me - Reno, Nevada

Oof... this one hurts. I have been a HUGE fan of Crazy D's in the past. I tell everyone I know that these are the best tenders in town. During that big chicken sando craze, I always took a detour and opted for Crazy D's because it was so good. But that was always the other location. After the experience we had at the University Terrace location, there's a good chance we won't be back. So we ordered everything online and went to pick it up around the time it said it would be ready. When we got home, we opened everything up and discovered a number of issues: we ordered a wings combo that was supposed to come with fries and alas, no fries in the box. The giant slider had no pickles on it (one of the best parts!) The chicken itself was so dry, it was hard to chew and swallow. On top of that, we ordered the "medium" spice level and there was absolutely no spice to the chicken - I think the seasoning was left off completely. My daughter's Mac n cheese was definitely the best part of the meal. I reached out to the location twice about the issues and never heard back. I really wanted to give the business an opportunity to make things right, but got crickets in return. Such a bummer to be burned by one of my favorite spots in Reno. Update 11/26: did not receive any refund or credit, even after the response to the review... read more

I really love D's chicken. I don't understand what happened but I got almost warm french fries and I asked for ketchup because the container was empty (I never did get it), which was fine since I didn't eat the fries. I wanted to wash my hands so I went to the restroom and I just walked out. The restroom was very dirty, towels on floor, dirty toilet and just not sanitized. The garbage was over flowing and to my surprise it did have soap and paper towels. As much as I enjoy the chicken I can't go back there. There was two young men working there and I question how clean their work area is... **** My bad, this was Crazy D's on Virginia in Reno. read more
