“Best saves hot chicken in San Diego the service was amazing I don’t know the guys the guys name but he had a lot of hair it was curly and brown they NEED to give him a raise he was very kind to my mom and dad and had a good attitude the food was delicious 🤤“

“I had an amazing experience at Dave’s Hot Chicken! The food was everything you’d expect—crispy, juicy, and packed with flavor. The spice levels are spot on, so whether you want just a little kick or full heat, they’ve got you covered.
What really made the visit stand out was the exceptional customer service from Tony. He went above and beyond to make sure my order was perfect, checked in to see if everything tasted good, and made me feel genuinely welcome. It’s not often you get that kind of personal attention at a fast-casual spot, and it truly elevated the whole experience.
I’ll definitely be coming back—not just for the chicken, but because the team (especially Tony) made it such a great visit. Highly recommend!“

“Every beer is a gem. The staff is friendly and helpful. Another O'side must do!“

“The patty is perfectly cooked, juicy, tender, and seasoned to perfection. But it’s the truffle infusion that truly steals the show. The creamy truffle aioli and delicate truffle shavings blend harmoniously with the high-quality beef and sophistication to every bite. Enjoy!“

“I ordered the 2 piece meal with brocolli, pinto beans, and corn tortillas. I had a side of the avocado hot sauce and the red hot sauce. The chicken was tender and moist, not dry, flavorful, and well marinated. The broccoli was not overcooked and soggy but steamed just right with a little bit of crisp to it. My pinto beans had a great flavor with a little bit of a spicy kick, which I love.The cashier was attentive and engaging. He was polite and had a smile when saying hi and bye. The speed of service was amazing, as they cut my chicken and got my meal to me quickly. Great experience at this location!“

“Fresh and well seasoned Chinese dishes. We typically get the Cashew chicken, House chow mein, sweet and sour pork and wonton soup. It’s always enough to feed the three of us either lots to bring home. One of our favorite Chinese spots in Oceanside. Plenty of seating inside and outside.“

“We stumbled upon the Swiss Grill at the Vista Farmer's Market and it was just amazing! I ordered a whole chicken, it looked so good just rolling in front of my eyes. The meat is very tender and juicy, the skin is of a crispy golden brown - yum! I am actually from Switzerland myself and let me tell you this food made me feel right at home. The potatoes were both soft and crispy with the perfect amount of seasoning. I also had a pleasant chat with the owner Daniel who lived a few miles from my hometown - so we ended up talking about stories from back home!“

“As a Level 7 Local Guide on Google, I am slightly surprised to observe a mere 4.1-star rating for this establishment. However, upon further inspection, it appears that this rating is predominantly influenced by a significant number of one-star reviews. It is important to note that the service provided here is both efficient and practical for individuals seeking a quick meal. Additionally, the staff demonstrates proficiency in Spanish, which enhances the overall customer experience if you're not fluently in English.

“Enjoyed the grand opening. Food and service was great. Always been a fan of crinkle french fries. Chicken was the best. Welcome to San Marcos.“

“One of the better KFC’s. Chicken is always moist and favorable, they don’t serve the old pieces that been sitting around under the lamps. Sometimes drive thru takes a minute but that’s cause they are making your food fresh. I don’t mind waiting for fresh. Great customer service service every time too.“

“Love this place!!! Always great food!!! 😋😋😋“
