    Good food, chicken is really good and juicy with crispy outside. Excellent service by the team. Each order is prepped fresh. Clean restaurant. Stay with Medium to taste the chicken. The rest is too hot in my opinion

    Got there and there was a line but it was not a long wait and I had plenty of time to look at the menu. I ordered and the workers were friendly. I got my food fast and it was very hot lol I had only been here one other time but in a different location and it was just as good as I remember. Definitely a stand out restaurant and I definitely want to come back!

    Second time to Dave's and honestly for $11, this is a hard meal to beat. The crinkle fries are perfectly seasoned and crispy golden brown, the medium chicken sandwich has a perfect blend of heat and spices, and you get extra house made pickles. Maybe quality is better right at open, but I have yet to be disappointed. Staff is also very friendly and fun!

    Mai loves the reaper heat too.

    I giving my rating on the heat of the chicken. This week I have hit up two different hot chicken places that both required waivers to be signed and I wanted the hottest of the hot. I got the reaper sandwich with fries. I ain't gonna lie this chicken was damn hot. It hit hard and goes deep but like most good things it didn't last more than 5 minute. If you really like it hot then you need to give it a shot. To add a little more info. The bun was really good. I would have liked a little more slaw on there. Pickles were crisp the Dave's sauce was on point. Highly recommends I also got the milk shake which was very creamy and a great finisher.

    We arrived around 11am to a brightly lit, clean restaurant. The friendly cashier asked if it was our first time. We told them yes, but we were ready to order. The two tenders with fries were hot and delicious. We tried the mild and medium - their heat scale was spot on. The chicken tenders were juicy and delicious. Just make sure to grab a few extra napkins if you like to use your hands to eat.

    I was really hoping I would like this place but unfortunately I didn't love it. The restaurant was nice and clean, the service was friendly, but tbh I just wasn't a super fan of the chicken. It made my stomach hurt. The fries were decent and I liked the sauce. But I probably won't be back. I felt that it was also expensive for what you were getting. I'd rather just have chick fil a.

    The fries are 10/10, they remind me of the best crinkle fries I can remember.

The classic was nice, the slaw gave it a nice flavor. For some reason though, the coleslaw by itself was not that spectacular. The 303 was not too spicy. It could have used a little extra heat. The fries were the star unfortunately. We wanted more but knew better not to order more. The food arrived hot and seemed fresh. Have I had better chicken sandwiches? Absolutely. Have I had worse - sure. They hit the spot but just barely unfortunately.

    We love chicken salad chick! The owner of both locations is amazing and values customer service. I…read morewon free chicken salad chick for a year through her online instagram promotions, so I highly recommend following her on social media. She seems like a highly motivated businesswoman here in Denver, also doing things or hosting events at her locations. As a healthcare worker, I was exited to see her making moves doing pop ups at hospitals! Overall, we love the food here. It's easy, quick, yummy & light on your stomach for lunch! We like the buffalo quick chick also to use as a buffalo dip. It's a good way to add protein throughout your week. We come here every month at least. Lastly, I like how the owner hires younger women. It seems like she inspires a lot of high school girls to have people facing jobs. As a customer I can see the encouragement among the girls at this location to help with confidence and training for their futures. It seems like a very positive business model for the future generation of women in Denver!

The food came out quickly, servers were all smiles, but the store was not as clean as you'd expect with so many employees standing around with little to occupy them. Ice was all over the beverage machine, the Peach Tea dispenser was empty (and still empty 20 minutes later), the floor was crumby, and napkins and dropped menus were under tables. Our food was fine. I liked the lemon basil chicken salad, and the side of chicken tortilla soup, while very small (5 oz., maybe?) was tasty but certainly not close to hot. My dining companion ordered the bacon cheddar melt sandwich--oops, out of bacon, so he settled for a turkey club sandwich, which was fine. The side of macaroni and cheese (again, very small) was good. We liked the small buttery cookies, pickle spear, and crackers. Since there were so few diners, the restaurant wasn't noisy. I downloaded the app (25 free points) but not going to rush back.

Their breading is soooooo delicious. We tried a few different sauces on the wings and they set nice in their golden brown crust.. The chicken is very clean.. I could tell they use quality as the size and flavor were beyond ny expectations. Not greasy but crisp.. meat in every bite. Tgeir wings ate double the size you get from the chains i mentioned earlier. I could imagine this restaurant selling madhed potatoes and gravy .. the southern fried crust would be spectacular with a creamy chicken gravy . We had potstick with their sweet soy sauce dipping marinade. You have to try these.. We had them fried. The filling was delicious with veggies and pork but all blended perfectly.. French Fries were delicious too and the coleslaw goes great with the breading on the fried wings. The gentleman who was probably the owner was very professional and polite.

Luckily,…read moreit was just a short walk over and we were immediately greeted by the staff at the front door. The hostess was extremely friendly, very conversational, and we definitely got that Southern hospitality. Our waiter, Ben, was extremely helpful when it came to questions we had and dishes that he would recommend us to try as first timers. We started off with their monthly special of fried okra and it was very delicious especially dipped in their homemade sauce. The okra was lightly battered, fried to perfection, and had a little spicy kick to it for every bite. Both my wife and I went with Ben's recommendation of the Monica-Smothered Catfish and Pork Chops. It was great to know that you could order the lunch portion during dinner hours and we did just that as we weren't too hungry after getting off the plane. The catfish fillets were cooked perfectly and it paired well with the crawfish tail cream sauce. One of the best catfish dishes I have eaten. As for the pork chop, it was grilled perfectly as well and the vegetables were a nice side. Also, one of the best pork chop dishes I have eaten. The creamed potatoes were delicious, but I didn't expect melted butter on top. Since the restaurant was busy for dinner service, there was a hiccup with our toddler's meal and Ben resolved it very quickly. I wished we had room for dessert because the descriptions were definitely mouth watering and Ben did ask us a few times if we wanted to try the beignets as they are a top seller. All in all, we would definitely come back here whenever we're in Colorado to try other dishes as well as the desserts! Service was excellent as our waiter and the other staff made our dining experience very smooth and seamless. They checked in on us in a timely manner and made sure we weren't missing anything. The restaurant was clean and had a good mix of the Colorado outdoor and the Southern/New Orleans decor. The parking lot is a decent size and we always saw it full whenever we left the hotel during lunch and dinner times.

When I got there, it was obviously after the main lunch rush since there was no line at the counter and only a few occupied tables in the dining area. Anyway, I was dining alone and ordered Chook For You (1/4 chicken either white or dark meat, one side, one sauce). I got white meat (breast with attached wing), mashers & gravy, and the chimichurri sauce). I also ordered a single side of the smashed cucumbers and an iced tea. This was a lot of food, especially for the price. The breast piece was large, and the sides of mashers and cucumbers COULD be shared by two people (but I managed - somehow, sigh). It was all incredibly delicious and satisfied by craving for a little comfort food. The chimichurri sauce was so yummy that I was scraping it out of the container it was served in with my knife so I could get it all! The staff were very friendly and the dining room was clean. I sure wish there was a Chook near my house...
