    This place was so delicious and a perfect take on Nashville hot chicken. The chicken tenders were perfectly cooked, juicy, and well seasoned! You can order it at your level of spiciness and your flavor profile preference. I went with a two piece chicken tender meal, which comes with fries, pickles and bread. It is more than enough food because I could barely finish it for myself. I also ordered a M&M milkshake and they did not skimp out on the amount of M&Ms that were inside of my Drink! I actually couldn't finish it cause it was overwhelmingly good but too much in the best way! This place is located in Wynwood and stays open late, which is perfect if you're out for the night . This food is definitely heavy, so be prepared to feel either ready to sleep or ready to go to the gym. The service is normal fast food service type, not that good but not that bad either.

    Fallout meal

    The medium-spiced chicken was okay, but the fries were good. The Fallout theme was really cool and so was the little stimpack sauce injector.

    Quick review: If you like Nashville hot style chicken then this is the place! The fries are seasoned as well and delish. The service was subpar

    My friend & I needed a quick bite & Dave's Hot Chicken was the perfect choice. We decided to dine-in & ordered off the kiosk. Great minds think alike, as we both ordered tenders with fries. Our food was made fast & fresh. Andre was kind & helpful. My friend's tenders were mild while I ordered hot; we were both happy with our choices. There was ample seating & the interior was clean. I would return.

    After hearing about the infamous "Reaper" level of spicy at Dave's Hot Chicken, I had to check this place out. I did not have the wherewithal to try the Reaper on this visit, but it's definitely on the list! I decided to begin with Medium and Hot. Hot is hottt, but bearable. The tenders are huuuge and the sliders are almost big enough to be considered a small sandwich. This casual spot is centrally located in Wynwood, although good luck finding a parking spot in this area. There are kiosks for ordering just as you enter, or you can also order at the counter if you prefer. Service is good. Moreover, the staff here have to put up with some bizarre happenings and did not miss a beat. While I was there, a man walked in from the street and he didn't seem well. He approached two young women seated by the door but they immediately got up and went into the women's restroom. He picked food off their table AND out of the trash, then left as soon as the manager rushed over to shoo him out of the restaurant. This took less than 5 minutes and kudos to super-manager for acting so quickly.

    After walking an hour me and my boyfriend ended up here. We both had it but not in a while. I got the sandwhich and he got two tenders. Everything was pretty good . The tenders were juicy and not that hot (just what we ordered) it is a little pricey I think it was about $35 total for both of us.

    Overall, not bad. I've been to the Aventura location and the Aventura location is times better as the chicken is way juicier in the Aventura one. I hope this location can improve that. However, the service was great. The girl taking our order was very sweet and food came quick. Also, I appreciate the fact that they are open late, especially on weekdays. It is one of the best options in that area on a weeknight.

    First time trying this new cool place. Ordered the two piece tender, one mild and one hot, to try something different. The first initial bite you feel a little bland powder taste, thereafter you start tasting the heat and flavors. It's delicious. The chicken is very tender, soft and easy to pull apart.

    Solid fast food fried chicken. Good as a late night spot or if you're looking for solid Nashville style chicken. We wrapped up our Wynwood burger crawl by switching things up a bit with a stop at Dave's Hot Chicken for some Nashville-style heat. We ordered the mini sliders, splitting one each between four people, plus a side of fries and the signature Dave's dipping sauce. * The chicken was juicy, crispy, and nicely spiced, depending on your chosen heat level (we went mild/medium). * The fries were solid -- classic crinkle-cut with a good crunch -- and the sauce had a great creamy kick. * That said, Dave's definitely has more of a fast-food vibe than a gourmet burger or chicken shop. You're coming here for quick, tasty eats, not a sit-down dining experience. It was fresh, it hit the spot, but compared to the other stops, it didn't have the same wow factor. Three out of five stars.

    Small Top Loaded Fries

    Portions are decent for the price, especially for wynwood. The loaded fries were $10 I was able to order ahead of time from their site. Cheese , Dave sauce, slaw and chicken *chefs kiss* . Pick up was easy, they have a separate line so it's quick. Will be back .

    Extra hot slider and tender with fries
    Shawn H.

    Fast food type service and setting. The chicken was moist and spicy, but the seasoning on the outside is a bit powdery. I'm not a fan of crinkle cut fries, but theirs are very tasty. Overall as far as chicken joints go I think it's just kind of average, since wynwood is a bit of a drive for me, I'd skip Dave's for some of my other favorites in the area.

    Had Dave's Hot Chicken for the first time and it was really good! Knowing me, I had to get the classic Hot chicken sandwich with fries. The food came out really fast, staff were very friendly, and it was a nice vibe. Would definitely try it again.

    The food was good. Only problem was that the waiter gave a limit of one sauce per order. Thats why im giving the lowest possible score.

But I have a flight to San…read moreFrancisco today, so my wife and I finally decided to hit it for lunch before heading to the airport. Let me tell you: this place is LEGIT locals. There is absolutely nothing touristy or manufactured about it. Stainless-steel tables, red plastic baskets, a busy counter, family photos covering the walls and a dining room full of people who clearly come here all the time. And the sandwiches are HUGE. Enriqueta's, opened in 1964, is best known for its Cubano and pan con bistec, but Rachel and I shared a medianoche, a tortilla con chorizo y queso and something called the "Super Cheese" with bacon. That last one is basically an enormous griddled pile of bacon and molten cheese barely contained by Cuban bread. I also grabbed some empanadas to take on the plane. The tortilla was beautifully browned, packed with chorizo and cheese, and substantial enough to be a meal by itself. The medianoche had the proper soft, slightly sweet bread, pressed crisp around a serious amount of pork, ham, Swiss, mustard and pickles. Nothing dainty happening here. The iced café con leche is also extremely strong. I will not be falling asleep on the flight out. Best of all, we got to meet the boss herself, Lucia Plá, the beloved matriarch on Saturday morning, greeting customers. Her husband, who bought the diner in 2000, Jose Luis, passed in 2019. This is the classic Cuban diner experience--a completely different vibe from Versailles or La Carreta. Smaller, more personal and much more like Puerto Sagua: a real neighborhood restaurant serving real people, with no interest in becoming a theme park version of itself. I'll definitely be back.

    I read about Enriquetas in Lonely planet and so happy I came by. This is a staple in Wynwood and no…read morefrills. The service was friendly, food delicious and prices reasonable. The Cuban coffee was only $1.30 and the steak sandwich was unlike anything I've had before. It was a bit dry, but otherwise pretty good.

There is counter seating, a long table, a handful of smaller tables and a sofa at the entrance for your choice of cafe seating. They have a water cooler across from the counter to serve yourself water. I got a Turkey Brie-yonce ($14), which has turkey, brie, spinach, red onion, avocado. The baguette was fresh with good flour flavor and crusty crunch. There is no spread or sauce on the sandwiches because they give you a bottle of garlic cilantro and dijon vinaigrette to pour onto your sandwich as you eat it. I don't know if something was wrong with my taste buds but I honestly didn't taste much of a difference with the garlic cilantro and dijon vinaigrette besides the vinaigrette being, well, more acidic. I couldn't have told you what was in the garlic cilantro was if I didn't know what kind of sauce it was. Otherwise, the sandwich clearly had fresh ingredients and was lovely to eat with several pours of the sauces. It does make me think that someone may not like the sauces, so it would help to have a couple more sauce choices if the sandwiches are not dressed. They nonetheless know a quality sandwich with bread that the French would find acceptable. I'd return to try a different sandwich if I'm in the area!
