Food is delicious Service was super fast, my 1st time here. Very nice and clean here. Guy didn't listen to my instructions obviously. I asked for no pickles. Look at my picture ‍ Order taker needs to listen and keep up with what you say to them. It's not busy here and someone has ONE JOB and failed read more

Nice sizeable strips I got #1 with 2 chicken strips- Hot level and swap fries w/ coke slaw. Fresh hot hunky chicken strips, good crunchy crust. Staff was friendly, I recommend this place. Only regret I should've gotten Medium one level below Hot, beware it's a slow burn. Also wish we had more sauce on side it was enough for 1 strip. My favorite was juicy chicken and nice crunchy crust. Least fav was slaw pretty flavorless and bland with watered down mayo, no vinegar or salt. Btw, the chicken is Halal they have a sign front of register if your curious on how it's prepared. Dessert would be nice, if you've been to Hattie B's in Nashville this is better IMHO, but banana pudding would've been a nice ending to spicy meal :) read more

Dave's Hot Chicken - Hot level pretty hot cool it w cole slaw - Chicken Shop Near Me - Plano, Texas

This place is amazing. Love the fries and the chicken sandwiches. It has just the right amount of spice for me at the medium level but I like spice. So if you can't handle it choose one of the mild options. Also the refrigerated yellow sauce packets are a great addition. My son loves it as well. read more

terrible service,my kids were cleaning the chairs in the outdoor area seating because it rained that morning,it had alot of water on them. this lady came out yelled ,don't put the water down. I asked her why she yelled she completely ignored me and didn't even acknowledge.If i could give a zero i would, Zero to customer service, you guys have terrible staff. this Lady was working on Wednesday August 12th 2025 7.14 pm. read more

Food was great. Atmosphere is borderline obnoxious. Music pegged to 10 so everyone in the restaurant is yelling to hear each other. Highly recommend to go orders read more

Very specific menu, NO RANCH is available for your chicken. Only the Dave's dressing which I was not a fan of because of the mayonnaise in it. I'd give this place a 5/10. It wasn't terrible but it's not a place I'd crave or even go back a second time. The service was prompt and polite. The staff was friendly. read more

I ordered take out for dinner with the chicken slider with fries in the #4 meal. I would eat there at the restaurant next time instead of ordering to go because it would be better hot. I ordered mild but probably could have ordered medium since it did not seem that spicy. I forgot to take a photo of the food when I got home. The portions were good sized with lots of fries and a chicken patty bigger than the bun. Fast and friendly service too. read more

Very big sliders. lol I liked the food but will get mild next time. The hot was so spicy I couldn't taste the food. Fries were amazing though. Not a big fan of the special sauce...much prefer ranch. read more

On the hunt for a chicken sandwich, we found Dave's Hot Chicken. I was initially wary when it was suggested to me because most hot chicken places tend to use lard for their hot sauce and/or to ensure that the seasoning sticks to the chicken. I was shocked to find out that it was halal aka no pork - YES. As soon as we entered, we were greeted by the cashier who was ready to help us have the best first experience. I actually like that their menu is limited because it means 1) less time spent making a decision and 2) they probably do what they do well. We ended up getting the sandwich, tender and fries to try some of everything. It was recommended that we mix honey into their chicken sauce and holy moly that dude knew what he was talking about. Medium spice had me panting though read more

Tonight we decide to try Dave's Hot Chicken for the 1st time and let me just say that the gentleman name Justin that took our order was amazing! His customer services was an experience I haven't felt, seen, and experience in decades! I am not kidding from walking in the door until we left! Thank you Justin for making my evening with such great customer service! Now the food was cool but I do feel the bun is too small for how big the tenders are but overall I will give the food a 7/10. The restaurant was very clean and inviting but we took our food to go. read more

Ordered take out for lunch. Two sliders, hot, fries, sauce. Order was correct, hot, and they included extra sauce. If you like Nashville chicken, Dave's is crushing it! When they say 'hot' they're being serious... it's hot! Fries were crispy, sauce was perfect. Feels just a little pricey, but nothing too concerning. Can't really ask for much more. read more

I got 2 tenders with fries. The chicken tastes really good, but it's also a little too salty. The fries are really crispy and delicious. The slider is just a chicken sandwich and it tastes alright. It's a lot of food. read more

Dave's Hot Chicken - Dave's #1 2 Tenders w/ Fries - Chicken Shop Near Me - Plano, Texas

There's an employee with gorgeous dreadlocks whose spirits fills the place with positivity. His aura transfers light to everyone he encounters, I'm sure. If that weren't enough, the product is irresistibly craveable. Halal chicken, brined, tender, crispy, crunchy smothered in spices and love- what else is there in life? Well, I'll tell you! Crinkle fries! Nostalgic and fun, the crinkle fry may be the most underrated of all the cuts. But Dave's knows what's up! They're the ideal partner here! You can have the sliders different ways which allows you to try varying heat levels if you're new. I tried a medium and a hot and found the hot to be perfectly balanced and not overwhelming, but it'll make you sweat a lil! The sauce is substantial on its own but a drizzle of honey marries with it for a curious combination that hits all the flavor zones. Prices are reasonable and two sliders is probably glutinous for one person, but you can always save the second for later when you're missing your lunchtime rendezvous. read more

I've heard and seen reviews on this place. I'm here on a business trip from Houston so I had the opportunity to stop in and try it. This place is ridiculous!!! Twas so freakin de-lic-ious, I talked my workers into going here also the ne t morning when we met up to go to work they raved about how good it was. If I weren't here for such a short amount of time I'd go back. It's definitely worth stopping in. read more

It is what I had hoped it would be!!! That's all I need to say. My love affair with Spicy chicken sandwiches started with Wendy's over 17 years ago. It is sad that they didn't capitalize on what is a hot and growing market. I had been planning this visit with my nephew for a while and we had the chance this afternoon after church. We walked in with high hopes and they were well and truly met. We walked up and ordered our meals; a #1(tenders + fries) & 2 #3's (slider + tender + fries) + 3 drinks....$50 was the damage. Medium for my my nephew and niece; reaper tender and extra hot slider for me . Order placed, fountain drinks filled; napkins, ketchup, honey and expectations on the table. Order #229!!!! And we were off to the races. Let me say; you can smell the spices wafting off the tender; accosting your nasal passage and heightening the anticipation. I took a bite and it wasn't bad.....then I inhaled some air and there it was!!! It starts slow and builds into a heady heat, every bite and eat if air pushes the heat level up. The extra hot slider was just the right heat. The sliding scale for heat is just perfect; fries are extra crispy and have some seasoning, the pickles aren't too tangy. The Mayo based Dave's sauce + honey + ketchup on the slider is a winner!!!! Absolutely love this spot; it's my go to for a fried chicken sandwich!! It isn't cheap, but that said you can't get a combo for less that $9 anywhere for average fare. read more

The food is absolutely great especially the fries are very tasty and are way better than McDonald's fries!! The chicken is good, but the mild flavour tastes bland and doesn't have that much of a spice kick. Customer service is excellent and employees are nice! Wonderful service The ambiance of the place is really nice and is clean and not dirty at all! The fries surely do give a nice kick in the mouth lol, delicious and tasty read more

horrible service. they got my boyfriends order wrong three times, and i found hair in the food aswell. super rude staff, and i didnt even get a refund on this order. do better. read more

Dave's Hot Chicken - Chicken Shop Near Me - Plano, Texas

To be completely honest the closest I've had to hot chicken is Hattie B in Nashville and it's just not a fair comparison. The tenders were extremely juicy (compliment since it's white meat) and the fries were good. I don't think I'm a fan of the seasoning as it was a bit salty. I'm not sure I would go back and not because the food isn't good, it's just not my preference. read more

Dave's Hot Chicken - 2pc Dave's #1 2 Tenders w/ Fries - Chicken Shop Near Me - Plano, Texas

This place reminds me of Hattie B's. The chicken is crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. Great taste! I love spicy food so I ordered hot (sandwich, tender) + one tender (extra hot). There's a HUGE difference in spice level. Hot taste more like medium... but the extra hot is spicy. The chicken goes perfectly with the pickles. The fries are nice and crispy. The only thing that upset me is that the ONLY sauces they have are ketchup and their signature sauce. What if I don't want the signature sauce??? I want ranch!! Biggest downside. The atmosphere is pretty cool. read more

you should come here good food and Andrew is the best very kind and helpful food was amazing and great

Very bad services The service was extremely poor. A lady, who refused to provide her name, brought the wrong order. When I requested a correction, she argued and declined. Upon asking to speak to the manager, she claimed to be the manager. While the food is consistently good, the disappointing service has led us to decide not to return with our family.

Tried the reaper (the hottest flavor made with multiple Carolina reapers, 2 million + Scoville units). It was great, but had no flavor other than spice. You should probably not try that unless you are like me. They didn't warn me about the spice level nor did they make me sign a waiver, which they were supposed to do according to Google, but whatever. I've been wanting to try something Carolina reaper for a long time and I finally got it. read more

We wanted to see what the hype was all about. My daughter has been seeing it on TikTok and loves hot chicken. For 3 of us it was $45! (2) #1s and (1) 1 tender meal. Sadly, none of us liked it. The dry rub was overkill, couldn't even eat mine, it went in the trash. Store was clean, staff was nice, and the ice in the soda machine was my favorite part! read more

Finally tried this place and so sad to say we were very disappointed. The chicken was extremely salty and overcooked. We were trying to look at others food to see if it's meant to be that way or if ours was overcooked?? The one tender I had was so hard and crunchy, I ate half only. The mac and cheese was ok, good but not great. French fries were delicious! We really wanted to love this place but it just wasn't worth it for $20. read more

Dave's Hot Chicken - Dave's #2 2 Sliders w/ Fries - Chicken Shop Near Me - Plano, Texas

Food smacked . The over all taste of the chicken was good , I got medium on a slider and it was good it had a spice and a slight sweetness in the background. But I would rather have like more of a cut open tender on a slider so it will be a good bun to meat ratio. The tender dosnt take up the whole bun so I had a few bites with no chicken. Another thing is they dont have Ranch so that sucks but they do give sauce when we asked . The inside is kinda tight only about 7 or so tables. But it's a chill vibe. read more

Dave's Hot Chicken - Medium chicken slider. With fries and a side tender. - Chicken Shop Near Me - Plano, Texas

Lots of new hot chicken spots opening lately, and you know what? I'm here for it. Dave's is a new addition to this Plano/Frisco area, so I was super excited to try it out. I got combo #3, which comes with 1 tender and 1 slider (best of both worlds!). The tenders themselves were juicy and crispy, but I was slightly underwhelmed by the flavor/seasoning itself. I opted for 'medium' this first time, but will definitely bump it up to 'hot' the next time. As a few reviewers already mentioned, the buns on the slider are awesome. The Dave's sauce definitely leans sweet; not necessarily a bad thing, just not what I was expecting. The best part of the entire meal though was the FRIES! I am not normally a fan of crinkle cut fries, but Dave's does it right. The fries were perfectly crispy on the outside, fluffy on the inside, and tossed in this amazing salty/sweet seasoning. Overall, a solid hot chicken option in this area. It's not something I crave often, but I definitely plan on coming back in the future. read more

I first tried Dave's Hot Chicken years ago in LA and loved it. Because of this, I was really excited to try Dave's now that it's in Texas. I ordered the #2, which comes with two sliders and fries. The sliders have kale slaw, pickles, and Dave's sauce. I also added cheese to both sliders for like an extra dollar. The chicken was disappointing as it was really salty and a bit dry. I can handle spicy food, and I thought the hot spice level had a decent kick. The seasoning itself was flavorful, but it was just too salty for me. The fries were really crispy, so I liked them. Also, the workers were really friendly and efficient. Overall, I was a bit disappointed because it wasn't as good as their original location in LA. read more

Dave's Hot Chicken - Chicken Shop Near Me - Plano, Texas

One thing about me is I love a good Nashville hot chicken sandwich and cheese fries. Luckily for me this place has both and they are absolutely delicious! We got the two sliders with fries which I wasn't sure how big they would be but they are basically full size so I saved one for later. Not sure what is in their special sauce but I could not get enough of it so I'm glad it came with an extra side of it! I also love pickles and many places skimp of the pickles so it was a relief to see them on the sandwich and extra for the side. My only complaint was that I got one mild and one medium and honestly could not tell the difference, both tasted rather mild. My boyfriend got two mediums and they also were not very hot. Hopefully next time when I go up a spice level it actually has a good kick to it. read more

Just the night before I had read an article about Dave's Hot chicken opening stores in the area. The next day I'm meeting my buddy at the Grubb Burger Bar and I see that this place is open... so we change our plans. Just happens to be their "soft" opening. I think we may have been their very first customers. First off, the sandwiches were great, as were the fries. I like to taste my food instead of burning my mouth so I got mine mild, think my friend did medium. I'd go a little spicer next time as both the mild and medium are pretty mild. Also, I'd like more coleslaw on the sandwich. I'll ask if that's an option next time. What made the fries was the seasoning, a salty sweet spicy blend. Glad my buddy shared. The service was super friendly. Hot Chicks Nashville Hot Chicken is a notch better, but Dave's is good too! I liked the bun better at Hot Chicks as the Dave's bun is a cheap food service bun, and the slaw at Hot Chicks was way better... and I felt you get a little better value at Hot Chicks. But I liked the fact that they were generous with their pickles at Dave's. If i were watching my calories and could only pick one place, it would be Hot Chicks. Here's a tip. They try to sell you a two sandwich deal for like some large amount of money. Save your money and just get the one sandwich and fries as it will be plenty. read more

3.5. Steady flow of traffic on a weekend evening. Food didn't take too long. They call your number over the speaker. The combo set ups are very similar to what's in the area. tenders + fries. 2 tenders + fries for 11.69. Add a tender for 4.25. They have sliders. I like how they display the calorie count. Got the medium and it wasn't spicy!! If I come again, getting the hot. Fries were meh. Mine were not crispy. The tenders were not that big. On the smaller side of what I expect given the price. It comes with quite a bit of sauce. It's some sort of mayo mix. I liked the sauce. not my favorite hot chicken place in the area and there are a lot to choose from. read more

Went here TWO days in a row!! The food is good honestly.. I ordered to go, and it was ready when I arrived. I ordered the number 2, which is the two sliders and fries.

Pay to play? This was a difficult review to write for the fact that there is no shortage of fried chicken places in the area.... So why not try the "new place in town". This place was... ok. With sauced chicken tenders gently resting on a sliced opened roll, It was a pretty simple dish. The food was good not great... but that's all I can give it for the moment. But when it comes to fried chicken we're kind of spoiled for choice... The staff was nice and courteous but the place Was small... real small, but not really a deal breaker. The real question here you should be asking yourself as you scroll though the reviews.. Is... would you pay $20 for this meal? read more

the food is always on point here! just recently visited again and thought the service was a bit slow. either they don't have enough staff or it was one of those busy days. the cleanliness is not their top priority as i see tables were not being wiped down as guest was leaving. A lot of teens hanging out there which seems weird. hopefully the quality of food last long here. someone needs to manage cleanliness and hygiene. I hope the manager takes charge of this soon before quality goes downhill. Overall, food still tastes good and was fresh! read more

I was excited to try Daves Hot Chicken! The tenders are good size and juicy. The is nothing really special about the chicken, it's just hot. I ordered 1 extra hot and 1 Carolina Reaper and they were spicy but there was no other flavor or taste. The real MVP here are the fries!! Crispy, crunchy, spicy crinkle fries were the best I've had in a long time! Edit: added a star just because someone asked what could be done to get it to a 5....
