    #Dave's #3 1 Tender & 1 Slider w/ Fries
    Bev S.

    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

    Dave's #1 2 Tenders w/ Fries

    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
    Jessica A.

    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.

    Very tasty fried chicken and French fries. We loved the hot chicken. However the Coleslaw was…read moreabsolutely terrible. One bite and I had to spit it back out. My husband said the coleslaw was okay, just super different than the common Coleslaw.

    Chef Michelle Bernstein is a local star in the culinary world. She was born and raised in Miami…read more and her restaurants include Café La Trova, Sweet Liberty and La Cañita. She is the host of Check, Please! South Floridaand SoFlo Taste and she has appeared on Top Chef, Chopped, and Good Morning America. Michelle Bernstein's Michy's Chicken Shack is located on the second floor of Julia and Henry's food hall. Not sure if it was the crowds or lack of AC but it was hot up there. The stall has a bar counter with pretty stools, and a couple of high tops and tables around it. Chef Bernstein first featured her fried chicken at her upper east side restaurant Michy's which closed in 2014. The fried chicken was one of her most requested dishes so she brougt it back in the form of a fast casual resturant concept, Michy's Chicken Shack, The chicken is marinated overnight in buttermilk and then seasoned with fresh tarragon, Dijon mustard, celery seed, and black pepper before being fried to order. The fried chicken is then featured in sandwiches, salads, and dinners. Sides include coleslaw, cheddar biscuits, and B&B pickles. Dessert is an apple empanada. My friend and I decided to split an order of the chicken tenders served with fries and an order of the cheddar biscuits. I loved the flavor of the chicken and it was juicy but the tenders were not uniformly sized. One of the four pieces was a 1/4 of the size of the other tenders. For $14 it felt like a rip off. Also the cheddar biscuits weren't good at all. They were dry with no seasoning or cheddar flavor. Red Lobster has Michy's beat on their biscuits by a mile. While I was waiting for my food I couldn't help but notice that the clear container used to dreg chicken was left on the floor outside the stall under the window. Not very appetizing or sanitary. I left Michy's disappointed as I expected more from an acclaimed chef led stall. The food is really expensive too which I would not have minded if it was stellar. Unfortunately it fell short for me.
