    Dave's #3 1 Tender & 1 Slider w/ Fries
    Brandi C.

    First time to try Dave's Hot Chicken and was not disappointed! I tried the mild while my husband went for the hot and one extra hot tender. It was amazingly delicious We tried it with the Dave's sauce, honey and pickle on top. This was one of the best chicken tender I believe I have ever had! My husband tried the slider and said he really liked the kale slaw on it. The fries stayed crispy the entire time. It was so good! We said we would try the medium next time because I wanted heat and while he enjoyed his heat, said he would like to try medium just to enjoy it. We had to wait a little bit because it was the lunch rush, but they were very nice. We really enjoyed the decor. It reminded us of mellow mushrooms. We will definitely be back!

    Chicken tender was big but it was just a chicken tender, nothing special. I prefer other tenders so I tried it but probably won't revisit. It was full of KSU students as I think they are open late. The arts good for the Students.

    Back in my hometown, we have a Dave's hot chicken so I was really excited to try this. Though it was good and flavorful I do think the quality of the food can be a little enhanced. I definitely want to give them more grace because we went when they had recently opened I believe it was that same week. Therefore, I still do think that you should try it, especially now. With the crowd and the popularity of everyone wanting to try the place, I do believe the service overall was solid and the restaurant was also very clean. It's evident that there are a lot of young workers there most likely high school or college students and I believe they managed everything well with the chaos of it being freshly open and extremely populated!

    Dave's in Kennesaw has the best staff. Constantly asking if we need more sauce or napkins. Everyone was very attentive. The food came out hot and on point. I ordered the tender mild and the sandwich medium. I added some honey and was in Heaven. My companions ordered the same thing and enjoyed theirs as well. The restaurant was very clean and a staff was walking around with wipes for the tables when people were leaving. Whomever owns this franchise should be proud. Great staff and we will def drive back from Canton.

    I was super excited to try Dave's! It's a new Resturant in Kennesaw! I'm happy to have more choices.. I ordered a slider and tender with cheese fries! The place was crowded on a Wed night! So there was a bit of a wait.. My fries were cold and the slider and tender was piping hot!! The food isn't bad! But it's not super good either.. I did enjoy seeing all of the art!

    Food is mediocre. Service is extremely slow. Might be because they're new to GA and busy but still unorganized

    This is my second time being to this restaurant chain specifically my first time being to this…read morelocation. This location is bigger than the others which I can appreciate because it does allow you to sit down. Service was fast and friendly. A lot of the drink machines in the dispensers (soda) were out however, the signature drinks are the signature lemonades and punches were really good.. Pricing isn't overly high, but it might catch you off guard a six piece and a chicken Alfredo pasta combo cost me about $23 which isn't bad cause the average wing restaurant you're gonna pay about $15 for a 10 piece combo and fries so just know depending on what you're looking for average your meal at minimum $20-$25. I believe there was some type of issue while I was there between another patron and his order, but mine personally came out perfect. I was getting my food to go and ate at home so I didn't take a picture of my food but overall the restaurant is clean. Service is fast.

It's a cool vibe and you are greeted with "hope you're hungry af" or something like that. They also have table top games to play while you are waiting on your food. We waited about 10 to 15 minutes on a Friday night around 7pm. Showstoppers were def the cookies. $5 each but worth it. We tried Salted Caramel and Oreo. Dessert 10/10.

    I've had my fair share of Popeyes and this was probably the worst. We were in the area running…read moreerrands and decided to stop in for a quick lunch since it was just across from a store we were heading to. It actually looked pretty empty for a Saturday early afternoon (just around noonish) so we figured it wouldn't take that long. We jumped in the drive thru line where there was one other car at the window but once they pulled off, we knew something was up. Once we got to the speaker to order someone asked us to hold on but after two minutes of silence we thought let's just go inside since the parking lot wasn't particularly full of cars. I should've know by the faces of the folks from two different groups in front of us that this was going to be a mess. I sat down with the kiddos while my husband ordered andddd it took about 7 mins for him to get to the front to order. By this time I'm very tempted to just walk across the street to another place but didn't. 10 minutes later, food is finally ready and I'm over it. The fries tasted as though they had been sitting in grease. The chicken was decent, the freestyle machine was broken so we had to wait extra time to get one soda, and the biscuits just were rock hard. Maybe this was just not a good day for the restaurant but my goodness it was a mess. The staff did a lot of yelling at each other and it seemed like chaos happening behind the counter. Trust your judgement. Don't come here. The other reviews are right. This was truly a maybe it'll get better experience but reality proved it only to be a terrible experience that grew even more terrible because no one working there was actually trying to make the situation better. Needless to say we will not be back here. Ever.

    I looked at the reviews on here and frankly I think YELP needs to start verifying customers,…read morebecause I read these reviews and think that someone just has a personal vendetta against this restaurant and has started a campaign to ruin their reputation. I visit here at least once a week throughout the year, and frequently twice a week. In fact just visited today! The food does occasionally run out, but that is because unlike every other Panda Express I have been to, the food is cooked fresh here and not sitting all day (I mean seriously, who likes BROWN broccoli). Every service member of the team is exceptional. I have never once had a problem. I think the solution to most issues people have is the drive thru - not in and of itself - but the fact that customers think their food is going to be as fresh or as good once they drive it home and eat it as compared to eating in. That is just ignorant. My only concern at this location is staying on top of the trash during busy times - only because I feel bad putting more garbage in an otherwise overflowing can - but I realize it can be hard to keep up with with how busy this place is during peak times (which is a living testament to the quality of service and food). This is a great restaurant, with great people all around, especially Victoria and Ben! Keep up the great work!

    I had a very disappointing experience at the location on Ernest W. Barrett Parkway in Kennesaw. I…read morewas initially told the wait would be 5-10 minutes, so I decided to stay. After waiting, I was informed that it would be another 15 minutes. If the actual wait time had been communicated from the beginning, I could have made an informed decision instead of wasting my time. Good customer service starts with honest and accurate communication, and unfortunately that was lacking during my visit. Based on this experience, I will not be returning and will be advising my family and friends to avoid this location as well. Very disappointing.

    Upon entering the restaurant, I immediately noticed unsanitary conditions in the restroom, which…read moreemitted a strong odor of urine. Unfortunately, this poor first impression was only the beginning of a substandard experience. I ordered the Double Swiss and Mushroom Burger with no-salt crinkle fries. When my meal arrived, I was extremely disappointed to find that: * Both beef patties were cold * The Swiss cheese had not melted, indicating the burger had not been properly prepared * The mushroom portion was significantly smaller than advertised and expected While attempting to eat my meal, two employees began cleaning tables adjacent to mine, wiping and slinging crumbs in my direction. Shortly thereafter, a female employee returned and began sweeping the floor directly beside my table. When I politely asked her to stop sweeping so close to where I was eating, she complied, but the disruption had already significantly impacted my dining experience. Before leaving, I visited the restroom again to wash my hands, only to find that the strong urine odor persisted. I reported these concerns to a supervisor on duty. As a longtime customer who appreciates Culver's reputation for quality food and clean establishments, I was extremely disappointed by this experience. The combination of cold, poorly prepared food, unsanitary restroom conditions, and disruptive cleaning practices during peak dining hours falls far below the standards I have come to expect from your brand.
