Chicken bites with fries and  some pickles slices

Food was deliciously good ,thanks to the employees, I enjoyed the food Nothing wrong with this store I just don't like criticism especially if I'm having a good time with my ontrays..

Dave's #3 1 Tender & 1 Slider w/ Cheese Fries + Side of Dave's Sauce

This place is really good. I will definitely be back! Fresh, hot, juicy chicken! The heat level I got was "hot" and it was great! My only complaint is they don't have ranch lol. Other than that, I don't have anything bad to say! Good customer service, pretty clean, reasonably priced. A good place to come if you're craving hot chicken!

Amazing food, friendly service, in a super casual atmosphere. The place was busy but clean. Seating wasn't hard to find. We ordered the one slider with fries x 2. Both hot. There is a big jump from medium to hot but it was perfect!! The Dave's sauce is excellent and the fries are crispy. No complaints!!

Just saw yesterday that Dave's has a fruity pebbles milkshake. Since I'm pregnant, I went out of my way to come order it. Within ONE DAY they removed it from the menu. Still have it advertised though. I hate you, Dave.

We used to live in the area and came back to visit, so we had to stop at Dave's. So even though they were a regular in our household, I'd still give them a 4 star every time. It's not because it's not good food, but it's because of the service! The staff really needs some training in how to interact with customers. Back to the food... we always each get a #3: Slider and a tender. This was the first time I noticed how much breading was on the chicken. I'm not on a diet, but I was breaking it up for my 1 y/o and the breading is just too much for him. Anyway... it's probably as much breading as there is chicken on each strip. It doesn't take away from the fact that whomever came up with the combination of everything on those sliders needs some kind of flavor award! Now the restaurant itself has a very unique flare to it on the inside. It's not just paint on the walls; it's art! Like someone created beautiful pieces of artwork all over the restaurant. It's really cool! Otherwise, pretty spacious, clean. And a big plus?! They have - I don't know the official name for it - but it's like small hallway between the outside and the dining area. It keeps the flies out! Such a small detail, but such a major impact. If we're in the area again, you bet we're going back to Dave's!

Not my cup of tea! I prefer for my seasonings to be cooked into I'm the food. Not sprinkled on top. I ordered a #1 which is two chicken strips and Frieda a pickle and sauce. The food was hot and fresh and the sizes are good for as much as you pay. $13.99. No drink. Anyway I returned the food after 1 bite. It's too spicy and I ordered mild and again I don't like my seasoning on top. The fries were good and the service was great. I can scratch Nashville chicken off of my 'things to try list'.

This restaurant just opened today. And I paid $38.94 for 3 #1 combos (No drinks). I read very good reviews and they all mentioned how BIG the tenders were and how people raved about their seasoning. So we decided to check it out. The line was around the block, but we waited patiently, service, was fairly fast. We wanted to taste how hot was hot, and we had one person in our group that wanted mild. So we ordered one HOT, one Medium, and one Mild. Our taste buds tells us that their seasoning is a hot garlic flavor. You get two tenders laid, each on a slice of white wheat bread, with fries or one side, (we got the fries on one, and kale slaw on the other two). Fries are seasoned crinkle cut fries (nothing special, simply the bagged frozen potatoes you find in your freezer section), with seasoning added. The Kale Slaw came in a medium size container (larger than the competition), and it was crunchy and fairly good. Meals are served with sliced pickles, ketchup, honey and special dipping spicy mayo. The only disappointment was the size of the two tenders, Yes, they are larger than the competition, but not that much larger, I would say, not longer than their competition, but thicker than the competition. This chain has a lot of competition, from Lisa's Chicken (thinner tenders) to Chicken Express (slightly thinner) to Dave's Chicken & Seafood (six tenders served with ranch dressing and fries). What is going to keep me coming back, probably your seasoning, but what is going to make me question if I should? The size of your tenders. The bottom line, I don't eat white wheat bread, so I didn't eat the bread, so that is why the #1 didn't fill me up. How about adding a 3 or 4 piece combo? .... But that is going to be quite expensive, because your menu says adding (((one tender))) adds a whopping $4.69 that would be $22 dollar for a 4 piece combo?? Seeing all 6 pieces on the 3 combos, some tenders were large, some are half the size of the larger ones. Maybe keeping an even cut on the tenders would help, serving always the larger ones, and giving the customer an extra little one to the order?

They have a long ass line I was in like for 20 minutes and the staff did the drive thru was mad rude. He asked me to hold on for 7 minutes and came back and was like wat u want

The chicken was flavorless (we ordered it pretty spicy) and it was absurdly expensive.

Yummy chicken and full of honest and ambitious workers that are eager to share their love for soul…read morefood. They are still on the DL, so please continue to spread the word and support this lovely small business! EVERYTHING WAS MADE AND DONE WITH SUCH LOVE!! Mary Sue taught these workers well. Order was piping hot. They definitely cook as they go and don't let the food sit under a heat lamp. Tbh, the food was on the spicier side, so if you have a superrrr low spice tolerance like me, try to get extra ranch instead of Mary's signature sauce to balance it out. Chicken and pickle on a stick was a fun and new twist to try! I don't like pickles but my friend said it was good and would buy again. She said the pickles tasted like they make them in house (fresh!!). Not a bad price either ($4.99 I think.. might've been $6.99). Dough boys were yummy! A good glazed donut without the taste of fried oil. If I was craving sugary bread, this is the best dessert to soothe it. The regular roll that comes in the box is truly yummy as well. I got the peach sweet tea and boy it was indeed a true Texas sweet tea. SWEEET!! Delicious. The turn into the restaurant is quite a sharp turn and easy to miss, so slow down so you don't pass it.

We stopped by Mary's Sue's Hot Chicken on Sunday for lunch, and overall it was a really good…read moreexperience. From the outside, I expected it to be a smaller spot, but it was actually much bigger than I thought. Everything inside was clean, and even though there were a few people ahead of us in line, the process was simple--you order first, then grab your food and find a table. The cashier who helped us was super nice, which made the experience even better. We both ordered lemonade teas--one peach and one watermelon--and they were honestly a 10/10. Not too sweet, more on the tangy side, which I loved. It wasn't overly crowded--maybe around 10-12 people inside, with a couple more eating outside--so it felt comfortable. We ordered the chicken with the sweet spicy flavor, along with fries, mac and cheese, pickle sticks, and rolls. Everything came out fresh and tasted really good. There was about a 10-15 minute wait, but that's expected for fresh food and totally worth it. The presentation was great, and overall the food hit. The only thing I wasn't a big fan of was the dough babies, they were a little too thick for me, just a bit too much bread, although the flavor itself was still good. Overall, I'd give it an 8/10. Definitely a spot we'll be coming back to!
