Dave's #2 2 Sliders w/ Fries
Rose M.

Wasn't planning on stopping by but needed something quick. Counter service. Plenty of parking. So glad we stopped by. We shared the 2 chicken sliders, which basically were regular sized sandwiches, as far as I'm concerned. Large pieces of flavorful chicken on a soft bun. The fries were nice and crisp. Dave's sauce is out of this world. We wil definitely be back.

Came here on my granddaughter's advice with my wife and wow we were impressed! The chicken tenders are delicious, didn't think I would eat my entire double chicken tender meal.....but I did. Loved the Hot dry rub mix & it definitely had a kick to it. The staff were very efficient and polite. Without naming names... best chicken place I've been to in a while. Good job Dave's Hot Chicken.... we'll be back!

The food here is SO good. Everything was hot and fresh. The service was wonderful, we love Anderson!! The ambiance is so fun as well.

Soda all over the floor and Every Table had smeg on them

Chicken was over cooked, and the dining room was atrocious. Didn't notice any management on site. If there was, they could care less that "some" of their employees chatted and giggled with their friends while others picked up the slack to take orders.

I came back yet again... I absolutely love this place for chicken. Those who love fried chicken must try this spot out! I usually add the honey and Dave's sauce into my slider and tender, but if you don't want the chicken too sweet then you can just add the Dave's sauce. I typically go for medium spice as it's not too spicy but has just enough for a good kick. Overall, highly recommend this spot, if you don't eat a lot, try just getting the slider. Love love the pickle slices. They're large pieces and juicy! The environment is also pretty clean and well maintained and the ambiance is a metro urban vibe. Service was also relatively quick even on days when the times are pretty busy. 10/10.

Food was delicious and I love how you can adjust the spice level. Fries are seasoned well and don't forget to add honey and of course the Dave's sauce on the slider. Pickles were thick and crunchy. Service was decent but lunch hour was packed. Ambiance was clean. Esteban and Bruce had amazing service!

This was genuinely the best Dave's location I've ever been to. Everything was great! The person that took my order (I believe their name was Brendan) was so kind, it was very clean inside, and the food was awesome. It did take a good amount of time for my food to be ready (to be fair it was a pretty big to go order) but I didn't mind at all because the food was piping hot and tasty! The star of the show was definitely the not chicken cauliflower bites. They were HUGE. I got medium spice and they were so delicious. I honestly found them just as satisfying as the chicken bites, maybe even more! I also took a bite of my friend's order (tenders and mac n cheese) and it was really good too. 100000% will be back

10/10. This place is soooo good!! I ordered a #4 (one slider and fries). Delicious! I'm glad I didn't get any of the other meals because the 1 slider was huge. I ordered my sandwich medium spice which was perfect... not spicy. I could handle it. Loved the Dave sauce and the fries. I will be back for sure! I also want to say the woman at the front named Cookie was so sweet and she helped guide me through ordering. You can tell she has a love for Dave's Hot Chicken and her job. It's so nice to come across people like her. Yay for Cookie!

While I applaud the idea of a minimalist menu, this place goes too far. If you get the Caniac Combo, you literally have gotten -everything- on the menu. Sides and sauce (note: not sauces) included.

The first time I ever tried a Raising Cane's was back when we were still living in the "915"…read more(IYKYK). At that time, I hadn't yet tried the famous Cane's sauce; mainly because my wife somehow convinced me it wasn't worth my time. She said she didn't care for it. I fail to see why. Because after trying some for the first time today, I can tell you their sauce could give Chick-Fil-A sauce a run for its money! It may look like thousand island dressing, but it tastes like a party in my mouth. Only wish I'd ordered more. Pro tip: if you're getting more than 3 strips of chicken, get extra sauce! Trust me on this one. Your palate will thank you later. Not only are the chicken strips big and meaty, their fries are even more sensational. Now, it's been a few years since I last got to enjoy one of my favorite fast food fries (whoa-try saying THAT fast 3 times) of all time. But these crinkled little fellas are better than I remember. Crisp on the outside and seasoned to the nines, this meal as a whole gets a 10. This location has a particular drive thru setup I've never seen at any of the other Cane's I've visited. In order to understand the configuration of their drive thru, I'll have to explain how their parking lot is orientated. There are actually two entrance/exit points leading into the parking lot; one before and one after you pass the Cane's building. Regardless of which entrance you use, each one does a giant U-turn leading back to a dual-lane drive thru. If you're doing curbside pickup (as I did), you simply drive past the drive thru entrance, pull up to the left side of the building if you're facing the street, and there you'll see the curbside pickup signs. This design is so clever, I'm shocked more restaurants haven't implemented this. It's made so that, even if you accidentally pass the RC sign, there's still an opportunity to use the second entrance. As you can imagine, we were so stoked when we first heard they were building one of these in Manchester. And now it's finally a reality! Sufficed to say, we will certainly be visiting this place in the future. Raising Cane's in Manchester gets 5 chicken strips dipped in party mouth sauce out of 5.

One thing that gives me pause is the sides. More than once I've noticed the dates on the containers are already in the past. Maybe it's harmless, maybe it's not. Either way, I'm not adventurous enough to turn macaroni and cheese into a science experiment, so I tend to stick with the chicken. As an added bonus, it's not located on South Willow Street, which I avoid like it's part of my cardio routine. Ironically, South Willow has enough chicken restaurants to establish its own poultry-based governing body, but I'm a creature of habit, so I keep coming back to USA Chicken and a Biscuit. The staff are always friendly, efficient, and seem to keep things moving, which is appreciated when you're hungies and your patience is operating on low battery. As for the décor? It's exactly what you'd expect from a chicken place. NGL, nobody is walking in expecting an Architectural Digest photo shoot or interior design awards displayed on the walls. You're there for poultry, and the staff know and understand the assignment!

In my opinion, they have the absolute best fries in the business and their Coke always tastes better than anywhere else. It's that consistent quality that makes it worth the price every time. The process was smooth as I paid at the first window and moved to the second. The staff asked me to pull into the waiting area. I didn't have to wait long at all maybe ten minutes before Lauri brought everything out. Laurie was wonderful, extremely friendly and had a great laugh. She was quick and professional getting the food to me but she still managed to make the interaction feel upbeat and personal. Great food and even better service. I'll definitely be back!!

Great food, even when a busy festival is keeping the kitchen on its toes!…read more Maya's Kitchen is great, the food is tasty, and the service is delightful. I am saddened to learn that they are closing next year, but that just means that I need to eat there more while she is still open! The Mac & Cheese has a great Caribbean spice, certainly a top contender for M&C and the Chicken Curry is equally tasty. I wish that there was a larger dining room, it's quiet, but I expect that plenty of people come in for take-out, since the meals easily make it home without much loss of flavor. I look forward to visiting more in the future and trying out her entire menu.

If you're craving traditional African dishes, this is a solid place to visit. The customer service is decent -- the staff are polite, welcoming, and helpful. You won't experience anything extraordinary, but they are friendly and respectful. The ambiance is simple and more on the casual side. It feels like a low-key, everyday dining spot rather than a place for special occasions or date nights. However, that doesn't take away from the authenticity of the food. Overall, I would recommend Maya's Kitchen for anyone looking for good, authentic African cuisine in a relaxed and casual setting. It's a great choice for takeout or a casual meal when you're in the mood for traditional flavors.
