First time to this restaurant. Great customer service and the food was excellent. Chicken fried crispy yet very moist and fries firm just the right amount of seasoning First time impression 👍

Relative to other Dave’s locations, this one is one of the better ones I’ve been to. Would come again with friends but fried chicken isn’t really my thing - thought they did well though. Sides are mediocre

Five stars. Highly recommended when you need a quick bite!
Serving up a perfectly cooked bit of chicken for El cerrito locals who love chicken sandwiches and sliders, the staff here is very nice and respectful.
The employees (especially the ones working tonight Monday September 8th) are great! There should be a tip jar to tip them!
