    I ordered on UberEats for pickup. My first experience here. I thoroughly enjoyed the large screen to show order status regardless if you order in store or through a 3rd party. I knew exactly when my order was ready. Food was made fresh and delicious! The sandwiches are hefty, so no need to order 2 unless you're eating for 2. Haha. The atmosphere was creative. Kiosks for self-ordering available. Plenty of parking and shared with surrounding businesses, like Schnucks is located nearby. Love, love, loved my time here. Will definitely return.

    My hubby and son love this place but we just found out there was a location closer to us than Chesterfield. It's were the old 5 Guys was and the location is great. Parking wasn't bad and the wait time was normal for Dave's Hot Chicken. Staff was so nice and friendly. The manager came out and spoke to everyone and asked how the service and food was. The food was great BTW. Chicken and fries were hot and crispy. Although this location is a bit smaller, still great vibes and decor is so cool.

    This was my first visit to Dave's, checking out this newly opened location during a busy holiday shopping weekend. Despite the rush, the service was prompt and efficient--they were well-staffed to handle the crowds. The Vibe & Service: The interior has a cool, bright, urban vibe that I really liked. It's counter service, and after ordering, I waited about 10 minutes for my food. Everything came out obviously made-to-order, piping hot and fresh. They also have a self-serve drink station which is convenient. The Food: * Medium Tender: (4.25/5) The execution here was excellent. The "Medium" spice level was accurate for me, though fair warning: some might find it hotter than they expect. The portion size was huge--a single tender is practically the size of a chicken breast at other places. * Medium Slider: (4.25/5) This features the same well-spiced tender, but I opted for the cheese, which I highly recommend as it added a bit of needed creaminess to balance the heat and spices. * Cheese Fries: (4/5) Nicely executed crinkle-cut fries. They hit the trifecta: hot, salty, and fresh. Verdict: The combo meal felt a tad pricey at first glance, but the portion sizes are massive--I actually couldn't finish it all. I can definitely see why this place is so popular. I'll be back!

    I stopped by around 1 for lunch and there was a line to order. Took about 10-15' until my turn then another 10' until I get my food. So not super fast if you're in the hurry. Anyway, I haven't had Dave's Hot Chicken before so the cashier explained and recommended the spice level. I got the tenders in medium and to me that was the perfect level. The combo comes with fries. I also really enjoyed the sauce they served. Would come back and try other items!

    Meal #1. No pickles and lightly mild level. Fries are  and the seasoning is good

    My daughter and her dance friends have been raving about this place so after dance my daughter and I finally decided to give it a try to see what the hype was about. This location was sure busy and wasn't sure if we would be able to dine in but right after we placed our order on the kiosk a table had just opened up. Few things to point out before I get to the food. You can order at the counter, but they also have two kiosks that you can order which made it nice bc there was a line for counter orders so we walked right in, placed our order at the kiosk. The only issue that it's so tricky when ordering from the kiosk bc you have to make sure you click each item per chicken. It's not per order so really pay attention if you need to modify. My daughter and I both did meal #1 which comes with two tenders set on top of bread, pickles and fries. I got the lightly mild bc I don't like spicy food and no pickles. You have to make sure you say no pickles for chicken 1 and chicken 2. It's really weird. And bc it was our first time there it took us a while to make sure the order was exactly as we wanted it. My daughter got medium for her level with no bread and no pickles. Again click no bread, no pickle for each tender. My daughter loves spicy foods and she said the medium level is actually the perfect amount of heat. The seasoning they use on the chicken and the fries is what makes it good. I thought the lightly mild was perfect bc it had that tiny kick to where I could enjoy it. Now you also have few choices for sauces like ketchup, honey and it also automatically came with a sauce and not really sure what kind of sauce it was, but it just wasn't for me. I really wished they had a house made ranch or honey mustard bc sometimes you just want to dip your tenders in lol. So I was really disappointed that those weren't an option. Lastly, we have the crinkle fries. I've never been a fan of crinkle fries.....but these crinkle fries are the only crinkle fries I'll ever eat. Absolutely loved them! They were crispy and the seasoning....muah . Overall, my daughter and I thought they were okay and next time her and I will share one order bc neither of us were able to finish the two giant tenders plus the fries. Which makes ordering kinda cool bc you can do different levels per tender .

    I think this is great chicken. Very tender, not dry and spiced just right. Very friendly staff. Colorful and very clean inside. I ordered online. It was fast and convenient. I highly recommend Dave's Hot Chicken.

    Love this place. The hot is a little too much for my intestines to handle, but the medium is just right. And their sauce is really good

    I could not resist ordering from Flavortown as soon as I heard it opened in St Louis. Be sure to…read moreorder from the app!! Initially I tried to order from a link in an article about Flavortown. Epic fail! Then I discovered the App! The app worked wonderfully - no surprise! I ordered the Chicken Guy. It's a chicken sandwich with lettuce, tomato, onion, pickle, "signature seasoning", special sauce and a brioche bun. It was delicious! It was a generous portion. I made it into two meals (which means I get to enjoy the tasty sandwich twice!). I live almost 10 miles away from Flavortown. I was concerned how the food would hold up during the delivery time. It was FINE! I was very pleased with delivery. They had the sandwich nicely packed in a cute box. I feel this chicken sandwich holds up or exceeds other great chicken sandwiches. I have eaten chicken sandwiches at Crack Shack in San Diego (apparently the industry standard) many times. I enjoyed this one just as much! I'm not sure if Flavortown is a permanent fixture in St Louis?? Is that the plan?? Regardless, I look forward to ordering again. I was pleased with the entire process.

    I had HIGH HIGH hopes for this place... VERY disappointing! Food is not made from quality…read moreingredients and tastes like ass! I ordered the cheese-steak eggs rolls... Jesus they were HORRIBLE! I wanted to vomit instantly!! Husband had the crazy Cuban and the fries are straw chips lol. He felt like he inhaled gasoline smoke and a campfire just putting it in his mouth. He bit down only, didn't even get a biye in his mouth and was ill.... cpuldnt even eat this disgusting crap!! WTF Saint Louis....your cooks suck or the original recipes suck ass! HORRIBLE FOOD!!! The Bacon Mac cheeseburger had no real flavor at all. Sadly I think a Big Mac has more flavor and that taste makes me feel nauseous (sauce is good though at McDondals!). Save your money, for real...but everyone needs to experience their own thing I guess. But don't say you were not warned. This good tastes like crap! Spunky Mexican food (we all had that one spunky tasting food from a Mexican restaurant) tastes better and is CHEAPER. As I'm writing this my gut is gurgling...I'm going to have a bad stomach ache and diarrhea from this nasty food. Forgot to take picture of hamburger... the food even looks like some dive bar foor prepared it...Yuck!! ORDERED CHEESECAKE AND FRIED PICKLES...NEVER GOT THEM. POOR, POOR SERVICE!!

    Despite the negative reviews, I decided to give Flavortown a try. To my surprise, my order was made…read moreand delivered in well under an hour even though the expected delivery time was over an hour. The order arrived in cool packaging from the delivery bag to the individually boxed items. I ordered the Bacon Mac N Cheese burger ($12.99) and the Flavortown Fries (4.99). The burger looked great, but was very dry--it had decent flavor from the seasoning though. The ratio of Mac N Cheese and Donkey sauce was very unfortunate--I could barely taste the Mac n cheese or the sauce. I was really hoping the bacon would be crunchy, but instead it was soggy. The fries on the other hand were crunchy and the seasoning was fire! I highly recommend the fries! (They should provide more than just two ketchup packets though and some napkins would've been nice) Overall, my expectations weren't high based on the reviews I read, so I wasn't overly disappointed. However, I was kind of hoping my order would've been an exception, but I guess not. ‍ *would not recommend*

    Ordered through door dash. Half the order was missing and after waiting an hour and a half got the…read moreremaining food and it was ice cold. Really would have loved to have the food hot to enjoy it. We did like the steak and cheese rolls but the cheese sauce to dip them in was so cold it wouldn't let us dip. The food was to expensive to not get it hot. Super disappointed.
