    Single Slider

    One of my favorite locations for Dave's. I have been here more than once. The staffs here were so efficient. They were pretty friendly. During the free sliders day, there was a staff greeting people at the door and instructing customers when to enter. That way it wouldnt get so crowded. Orders were taken and names were called in minutes. I think I was in and out in 20 or 30 minutes at most. This was consider fast compared to other places who offered free stuff/foods, imo. The tenders and sliders were fresh and juicy. No one likes dry chicken. Parking avail Will definitely return to this location

    Found the Fallout Survival pack meal ! Food is fresh doesn't have a gruesome wait time . Service is ultra polite fast friendly and just all around great! Atmospherically it's a fast casual restaurant place is clean organized bright and energetic seating is spacious! With a fun vibe .

    I came for the fallout meal. I had Dave's in Hollywood few years ago and I remember liking it. However today our food was very dry. The sauce was good. The milkshake was awful. We got the chocolate one and it just taste like syrup. All the workers were nice and hardworking so that's why I'm giving it 3 stars instead of two. I do think they expanded too fast and allow their quality to go down.

    During lunch hour on a weekday, I need to order something that is quick and portable in case I have to go back to work! Dave's hot chicken was super convenient and the ordering kiosk helps make my choices more easier. I ordered a couple things for a quick lunch get together: non spicy just in case we share for the toddler and I don't really want to eat spicy Dave #2 Two Chicken sliders (non spicy) with cheese fries subbing the regular side. Extra cost Dave #1 Chicken tenders (2 non spicy) with regular fries Dave's Chicken bites (10 non spicy) After ordering on the kiosk, you can have it email your receipt. Unfortunately, the printing option wasn't working. Once your order is ready, they will call your name. The meals came in trays and the utensils and ketchup can be asked at the counter. Each of the chicken tenders and the bites came with a slice of bread, it was okay and just plain white bread. Unfortunately, I forgot drinks weren't part of the meals so had to go back and order drinks from the kiosk. Another issue was I realized after sharing some of the fries that they forgot one was a subbed cheese fries. So when I went back to the counter, I had to wait a bit since the staff were in the kitchen but luckily one of them saw me and I was able to let them know. They handed me a container of cheese which works as a dip instead of poured over (which is great since the fries stayed crispy). The food was good, we were able to finish within an hour as well! Would definitely come back!

    Their fried chicken with the bun and pickle vegetables were pretty good combination, I will give it a thumbs up. French fries was good and crispy. The place inside is pretty big, clean, plenty of seats. You order the food on the touch screen and they call your name to pick up the food. The wait for food was kind of long, we waited for at least 15 minutes, not your fast food restaurant, I guess they start cooking it once the order is in. Not pre cooked. Their restroom is clean however we see people from outside came in to use it and left, it will be a good idea to have a lock combination for safety concern. So the food are great except the wait. Their price for the food is reasonable. I will come back for more.

    I don't know why this place wasn't full of people when I went close to lunch time on a weekend! Order through the kiosk. Food didnt take long at all. You can choose tbe spice level and it is accurate imo. Service was friendly and helpful. Place was clean. I got the #4 slider with fries and loved it! Its a lot of food for the price which was comparable

    Chicken Tender and Fries

    This is by far my favorite fast casual restaurant. I came here for dinner and ordered their chicken tender and a side of fries. This restaurant is located in a plaza, so there was ample parking, sufficient indoor and outdoor seating, and I did notice that the restaurant was cold inside. I probably waited about 10 minutes until I got my food. Chicken Tenders (5/5): This was so good! The chicken was super tender and juicy, whilst the breading was the perfect amount (thin and really crispy). I added a bit of honey drizzle on the chicken and that really topped off the flavor, it was delicious! French Fries (4/5): Fries were good, but nothing special. It was crispy and seasoned nicely. I wish it came with a different sauce other than ketchup, I think maybe an aioli sauce would've been the perfection addition to the fries. Overall I really enjoyed dining in here. The food was delicious, staff were nice, and restaurant was clean. It's definitely on the heavier side, so I'd come here occasionally as a treat.

    So I used to always come to Dave's with my family but did not eat meat because I'm a vegetarian so I was just nibble on fries until the not chicken came out and I tried it and I'm so hooked I feel included and I don't even like honey but pouring the honey on the sandwich is so good now I make cauliflower wings at home and I put honey on it just someone bringing up Dave's makes my mouth water so yummy

    -I've tried this place two times and both times it was not spicy enough for me, it's a little disappointing -The medium spice was not as spicy as hot cheetos -It was still tasty but I would say try hot if you like the spice level of hot cheetos -I was pleased with the size of my chicken -You order from a kiosk, which is nice. yay no human interaction lol -$11.57 for Dave's #4 Slide with Fries, it's not a bad price!!! anywhere you go a meal is like $15-20 now -I will come back to try hot. Hopefully it's spicy enough. xD

    This Dave's Hot Chicken is conveniently located in a plaza with plenty of parking, alongside Kohl's and Trader Joe's. I stopped by on Drake's birthday to take advantage of their promotion: a free chicken slider for downloading the app and signing up for their rewards program. Though the line was long, with about a 30-minute wait, it was worth it. The slider looked amazing, with visibly high-quality chicken. I got the mild spice level, which had a good flavor, but it didn't come with any sauce, so it felt a bit dry. Next time, I'd definitely ask for some sauce to add that extra kick of moisture. Normally, one chicken slider is $6.99, so the promotion was a fun perk. I also recommend their combo meals--specifically the two-slider combo with fries and coleslaw, which goes for $14.99. It's filling and, in my opinion, worth the price! The setup inside is bright and vibrant, with a bold graffiti art style on the walls that gives the place a unique, artistic vibe. They have plenty of seating options, including covered outdoor seating and indoor tables, which is great for different dining preferences. There's also a self-order kiosk and a designated pick-up area for third-party and online orders, making it easy for takeout customers.The fountain drink dispenser is self-serve, a nice touch if you're dining in. Tips: - Ask for sauce if you order a chicken slider to avoid dryness. - Be prepared for a bit of a wait if there's a promo, as it's a popular spot! - If you're ordering takeout, the dedicated pickup section keeps things smooth. Overall, Dave's is a solid spot for quality chicken, a fun atmosphere, and good meal deals. Great for spicy chicken lovers!

    #Dave's #2 2 Sliders w/ Fries

    It is my first time to dine here. It was an absolute surprise for a chicken meal ! The chicken is not dry. Fries are good too! Service is great, Janelle is the lady in the counter, its only her third day but she works well and communicates well with us ! She is a great asset to this place and all the crew in this branch very friendly, smiling always. The place is very clean. I give this place and their chicken, fries ... a perfect 10! You should try i

    Number four Dave's #4 1 Slider with Fries and cheese add on
    Edward C.

    Tried cheese on the slider and fries for the first time and its a game changer. I really like their fries that are very crispy, but adding the cheese (nacho type cheese) made it taste so good even though its a little soggy after a while, it adds a new dynamic to the flavor profile of the fries. The cheese in the slider also goes well and will now alternate between cheese and no cheese when i come again. Excellent addition to your meal.

The smell of this crepe was not pleasant either. It was not good. Not recommend their crepe. On the other hand, the French toast was good with boriche bread. It tasted good with a balance of sweet and buttery. Added eggs and bacons for combo. Great portion for around $20. Berries, fruits, and salads tasted fresh here. Pistachio croissant was okay with flaky and crispy layers. It also had a pistachio cream filling inside. Not too sweet and it was good. But I think it would be better if it was warmed. I think the portion sizes were good for a brunch. Nice chairs and tables inside to try to create the feel of a cafe in Paris.

Sandwich is quite quite excellent. The protein and other ingredients tastes fresh. Just a reminder that the cured meats and cheese can be a little salty. Claro's For Thought: I'll definitely come back to try more sandwiches and desserts.
