As usual, the taste is on point. The chicken is always fresh, crispy, and packed with flavor. Spice levels are well balanced, whether you go mild or extra hot. The sliders and tenders are consistently good, and the sides complement the meal well. Big plus that it's halal, which makes it an easy go to. Prices are reasonable for the quality and portion size, so you feel like you're getting your money's worth. read more

Dave's Hot Chicken - Dave's #2 : 2 Sliders w/ Fries - Chicken Shop Near Me - Ontario, California

I had gone through the drive thru because I'm sick and didn't want to get out. I paid an up charge for cheese fries with my Dave bites and didn't get cheese. I went back a second time and still didn't get cheese. The third time I finally got the cheese fries at the cost of wasting 35 mins when I shouldn't have had to. Definitely going to a BETTER location next time. read more

I'm gonna be very honest, that review of how long it takes the food to come out even when the inside is dead and the drive thru has a few cars is very true. I love the food, but even with the front cashier being very sweet and nice, the output of orders is way too long. Mind you, i saw their POS that shows status of food orders and mine is the only one on there. I thought going inside would be faster but clearly it wasn't. I waited over 35 mins for 1 Slider w/Fries. I went and asked the front desk and they said "sorry, the kitchen didn't see it on their side" so if I never had asked after 30mins I would've never seen my order. It came out in less than 2 minutes right after. read more

I had never heard of this place, but I found out about their free slider day and decided to go check it out. It was a bit slow for a fast food restaurant, but that was possibly due to a few more customers like me on the free day? Anyway, the burger was very good! I was especially impressed at the large size of it, as the word "slider" usually means a mini burger, but this seemed pretty close to standard size to me! Texture, temperature, and taste were all great. However, normal price is $7, which is a bit much for "fast food," but I suppose that's how things are getting now. read more

Great service from Brianna in the drive thru tonight. Food was ready quickly and delicious

My second time and it is still not good. I had went 3 years ago and I never went back because the food was awful and not hot. So, I tried again because my niece liked it and no change.... read more

Tonight was my first time here. I have to say the vibe inside was very laid back and welcoming. A little crowded ( which says a lot about the food) wish it was a little more spacious however. The service made up for it, and specifically by one worker. Gustavo was outstanding! His mannerism and professionalism was above par, I was ready to leave and ordered a fry to go. Just so I didn't wait he personally went it the back and packed it up for me. True respectful and great worker. Takes pride in his work. I like that, especially in this world now. Not sure who will read this but he deserves a raise and employee of the month. I will be back just because of the wonderful service. read more

Awesome options great Gustavo was very helpful with the selections. Awesome ambience.

I had gone to another location before, but I didn't realize there was one semi close by where I live until I looked it up, my son was craving their hot chicken sandwich! The drive-thru line was packed, so I decided to head inside. It was busy there too, but thankfully the wait to order at the kiosk was short. My older son loves spicy food, so I got him a hot chicken sandwich combo, while my little one prefers mild flavors, so I ordered him a regular chicken sandwich without the spice. Despite the crowd, the service was friendly and the inside was clean. I also really loved the decor, it adds a fun vibe to the experience. And the best part? The chicken is halal! Overall, it was a great visit and we'll definitely be back. read more

**THE WORST PLACE TO EAT** DO NOT GO TO THIS PLACE! THIS IS WHY, I went for lunch at 1:45pm on Friday, May 16, 2025, and it took forever to get my order, and the chicken WAS BURNED!!! EVERYTHING TASTES AWFUL AND IS BURNED OUTSIDE AND UNDERCOOKED ON THE INSIDE!! I cannot believe how they sell this type of chicken to customers! Checking was undercooked, as shown in the image, and people could become SICK: Eating undercooked chicken can cause food poisoning, resulting in symptoms such as diarrhea, vomiting, stomach cramps, and fever. Avoid eating it!!! It is not safe to eat chicken here. "The chicken looked and tasted old!!!!" TO THE MANAGER: Please review your cooking method and cook your chicken; it is burned on the outside but uncooked on the inside. Where is the quality control for the food, and who runs that establishment that allows this to happen? I'd love to hear from you about this. read more

Took the family out to try a new place that I haven't been to And. It looks inviting. It looks kind of cool but probably won't go there again. We got sick off the food. Don't think it was handled right or cooked long enough. I got some of my chicken hot. It was pretty hot spicy wise probably not enough french fries or given out for the price. It's a one and done for us I think I prefer other places that serve chicken. read more

If you stop here make sure you have 30+ minutes to wait for your food . Been here multiple times through the drive through and inside the store and this location ALWAYS takes forever . Food is alright but not worth the wait . read more

I come to this location from time to time. Today was very frustrating. We waited 45 minutes for our food. He asked the front and the lady said it was next. People kept getting their food and we didn't get ours yet. She ended up asking the back for an update. They must of lost our ticket order. Super frustrating waiting this long for fast food. People around us were also complaining that napkins were not restocked and the trash was full. read more

Too much hype. Used uber eats and idk if it's bc it took a while to get but it just wasn't that good. Chicken was kinda dry and honestly lacked flavor meh and their signature sauce is just not good, way too mayonnaise like. I've had better (Habibibis Hot Chicken). This staple food place just doesn't cut it. read more

Terrible wait times zero star would never come back got mozzarella sticks waited for 18 other orders ahead of us to receive mozzarella sticks acting like this is a damn slider order waited 30 minutes for mozzarella sticks, and they called numbers ahead of our number read more

To say the customer service here is bad would be an understatement! It's awful. Pitiful. An unbelievable really bad joke. I ordered my food at 7:09 and didn't get it until 7:39 in a MOSTLY empty restaurant. I could understand waiting 30 minutes to get my food on a Saturday night, but anything over 15 minutes on a Monday evening is just pure fucking laziness. To make matters worse, 2-3 people who came in after me were getting their food before me. Oh and as I was filling my water cup up with WATER , the sloppy b-tch behind the counter who should've gave me my food first before running her mouth is going to tell me, "ma'am it's water only" as if the clear cup didn't already show I was filling up water. The attitudes from most of the women here is very stank. We get it. You think you're too "cute" to be working a fast food job so maybe go work somewhere else and let some one that won't take 30 minutes to fix 2 fucking sandwiches and some fries have it. read more

The tender versus the slider. I loved the tender more! The tender comes with a slice of plain white bread but the tender had more than enough flavor! The specialty sauce wasn't needed either! I ordered mines in mild flavor because I want to enjoy the flavor and it was delicious. Never knew. No regrets. Will never order slider anymore. Tender is enough. read more

So I had just left canes 10 minutes prior got a tender from there. I have been to Canes way more times than I've been to Dave's. Got to my hotel and left to grab Dave's nuggets. I was still underwhelmed by Canes but Dave's slapped so hard. It tasted like I didn't just put Canes in my mouth 10 minutes prior. The bites were well seasoned!! It was this sweet spiciness hot and crunchy! read more

Honestly never thought I'd write a review for a fast food joint but here it is! First time trying it tonight. Went through the drive thru on my way home and this review is for their worker, John! Super helpful and friendly from the time I pulled in the drive thru to the time I checked out. Thanks for the great service! Food was pretty good, too. read more

Went here because we were in the area at Sam's club and had to stop here to try their chicken. I loved that the drive thru lady asked if this was my first time there. It made it so she could give me some time and also suggest their popular menu items. I really appreciated that. My husband and I just wanted a chicken sandwich so we got their number 2: 2 sliders and fries. She recommended the medium level but we wanted it kind of spicy, so we went with hot. It was the perfect level! I was surprised the combos don't come with a drink, but we didn't want one anyway. It came with pickles on the side and the fries were seasoned and delicious! Would definitely recommend! read more

The food is really good! Love the tenders and sliders, the only thing which needs improvement is the cleanliness as trash cans are always full. read more

Love this place! It's very fast and fresh, the food is good and the service is excellent

My daughter has always wanted to try Dave's, but we haven't had a chance to go until recently. There is no question about the food. The chicken is excellent. I especially love the slider and so did my daughter. At the end of our lunch I asked her what she thought, and she said that the chicken was way better than Canes (her previous favorite chicken joint)! As for the ambience, it's simply set up for eating and moving on. Nevertheless, I have to give a shout out for the exterior which have some pretty cool murals. As for the service, the you lady was very nice, and she also made some suggestions. I'll be coming back soon since my daughter has a new favorite chicken stand! See you there! read more
