We were lucky to grab a table right as a group was leaving, but every table was taken for lunch. The line moved quickly and the employees at the counter were nice. Our food was also ready pretty fast, we didn't have to wait long the chicken was hot and crispy, same for the fries - they were nice and crispy, no soggy fries thankfully. The canes sauce was fantastic - it pairs perfectly with both the chicken and fries. The coleslaw was good too. We found parking without too much of a hassle - but I will note, this area is SO busy with the outlet mall and all of the other businesses right here in the area. Traffic is insane, so just prepare yourself for that. Will definitely be back!

The chicken strips were flavorful and the fries were crispy. I went through the drive tru and the service was somewhat slow. What I did think was trash was the cost for an extra sauce. You get one sauce with the 4 piece chicken strip combo and the extra sauce was 40+ cents. IMO I think that's a rip off.

Service was good and the restaurant itself makes you wander from wall to wall with the "graffiti" based art work. Food was ready fairly quickly and was hot and fresh.

It's definitely a small, family run business, and they make everything to order, which is always a plus. I went with the fish combo, which came with two pieces of fish and two sides. I chose the fries and mac and cheese, and also added a side of hush puppies. Overall, the food was good. The fish was fresh and flavorful, the fries were seasoned well, and the hush puppies were a nice addition. The only thing I wasn't the biggest fan of was the mac and cheese. It reminded me a bit of KFC's mac and cheese, which just isn't my preference. All in all, it's a solid spot. If I'm ever back in the Lakeland area, I'd definitely stop by again to give the chicken a try.

Since this was my first time dining at Dave's, I wanted to keep simple as a first-time customer. I ordered the 10 Piece Dave's Bites (white meat chicken tender bites) served with a slice of bread, pickles, and side of Dave's sauce). The bites were very good, and I regret I didn't order more. The chicken was hot, fresh, perfectly fried, tender and extremely HOT on the palate. Not a fan of Dave's sauce. I wish it came with ranch instead.

They let us put some tables together since our party was pretty big. Since it's new, the place was busy. Placed our order at 730 got our food for a party of 6 at 744 The sliders we got were the best. We chose medium for the sauce. We also got the loaded fries which had nacho cheese. The tenders were good we got those mild flavor. Kids got the 10 chicken bites to share with some fries. Dave's sauce is very tasty. My hubby wasn't fond of their fountain Dr. Pepper. The Coke was better. Mac n cheese is a little watery. Ticket number on the receipt NEEDS to bigger. Employees were shouting customer's order numbers. We all agreed it was probably because the numbers were tiny. Overall all the food has a ton of flavor. We spent $80 to feed all of us.

Since I've never personally gotten any chicken from this gas station / convenience store that host this delicious chicken I can't speak of the service but I was told that the staff here managing the food are extremely friendly and work hard to accommodate their customers. The chicken is advertised as "Cajun Style" although very flavorful it is relatively mild and I wouldn't think anyone will challenge the level of spice. As the name says it's Krispy and Crunchy and very fresh and tender, I was told they don't prepare a large volume ahead of time and set the chicken under heat lamps for an extended amount of time so depending on when you show up you may have a short wait to ensure you are served fried chicken that is hot and moist. Besides the chicken we also got a side of potato wedges and the honey biscuits, absolutely no complaints from any of us that participated in this work place lunch - I love finding new food options so I definitely plan to visit this location in the future...

We waited patiently for it and it did not take long at all. After we arrived and got our food, it ended up getting busy around 730 pm so we came at perfect timing. The crisp on the chicken and fries were pretty good. Although the fries were quite salty and the batter of the chicken tenders were quite peppery. I had it with the Cajun ranch and the honey bbq. Perhaps the sauce made it peppery but I didn't think so and the honey bbq was pretty smoky. My fave part of my meal was the mixture of the raspberry and peach tea and lemonade and the Texas toast. I'm glad I got to try it with the great deal yesterday. There is seating with booths and tables inside and outside seating as well as drive through.

There's parking outside. Inside, there are booths, regular tables and high top tables. It was bright and clean. You order and pay at the counter. They bring the food to you when it's done. My husband and I decided to share some tenders. We chose their "hungry meal" which included 7 tenders, Texas toast, fries, and a medium drink. I swapped out the fries and ordered the side of potato salad instead. The meal also comes with your choice of two sauces (there are 6 house sauces for the tenders; and 8 sauces for the wings.) We chose one ranch and honey mustard. One of the things that I liked was that each menu item showed the calorie counts as well as the prices and what was included. The food was ready fairly fast. We got everything we'd ordered correctly. The tenders were lightly breaded and quite large in size. All white meat and very, very good. He had the ranch sauce, and I had the honey mustard. We each liked our choices. The Texas toast was okay (I gave it to him). And the potato salad was good -- light on the mayo, as I like it. I'd definitely come back here again in the future. Right now the closest branch to us is in Okeechobee, Florida. I'll be watching for more of their stores to be a bit nearer as they plan to expand -- and we hope more to be located in south Florida.
