“I walked into Dave’s late on Wednesday night, 20 min before close. I needed a quick, decent meal. I was greeted and helped by Ryan. The guy is killing it. Customer service was top notch and I was treated as if I was a customer in the middle of the day. Ryan was helpful and attentive and went above and beyond to ensure I enjoyed my meal. Shout out to Ryan, and shout out to Dave’s chicken.“

“Ordered a Hi-C freeze. Was told they were having trouble with the machine and that it would be ready in about ten minutes. I understood and agreed to wait. They came by to check on how everything was going and I mentioned we were just waiting for the freeze. When he went to check on it, Miguel was still working on the machine and offered us a different flavor. We agreed on Orange instead. A few moments later after consuming half of the Orange one, Miguel came around the corner with the original flavor, stating he got the machine working and gave us our original flavor of choice with no hesitation and at no charge. Above and beyond service!! Highly recommend this location.
Food was HOT (no pun intended), Fresh and available in an extremely timely manor!! GREAT JOB TO THE WHOLE STAFF, KEEP IT UP!!“

“I recently moved away from Fort Collins so I am going through and leaving reviews for all of my favorite eats places. MCHC is god-tier! Their food is great and their support of local artists through their block party event is fantastic. I had the privilege of meeting their owner a few years back when I was driving for Lyft and got a ride request from him when he needed to go make sure their Prospect location was locked up properly after he received notification that a door was left open. he tipped me very generously and it was genuinely a fun ride. It never surprised me that the atmosphere of MCHC had the same fun appeal whenever I ate there. I am definitely gonna visit next time I am in Fort Collins!“

“Ordered delivery through Door Dash. The chicken was crunchy, seasoned well, and moist in the middle. The truffle aoli sauce was bomb. The fries were kinda meh, but that happens with delivery. The elote was very heavy on the tajin and was served cold instead of warm. Still good just not my preference.

Over all this restaurant is tasty. Are they worth the price? Probably not. I'd rather go to wing stop for more value.“

“I really like the Blazing Quesadilla with fries and a fountain drink! Had it 3 times while I am in the area. Comes with a good dipping sauce. Highly recommended.

The spice levels are tuned for an American crowd, so if you really want something spicy pick a spice level higher than ‘hot.’

They keep the inside seating area very clean, and on nicer days there are tables to eat outside.“

“10/15/2025: This was a great place for a quick lunch inside the Whole Foods grocery store on Wewatta. I spent about $20, but it was tasty, higher-quality food. An awesome variety of soft drinks, too. The service is very prompt and error-free. I would definitely come back to Whole Foods just to have lunch at Birdcall.“

Fresh, flavorful, and just the right crunch. Love this place!“

The manager, Jay, was doing an incredible job—personally clearing tables, checking in on guests, and ensuring everyone was happy. Thank you for proving that a busy location doesn't have to mean poor service. Highly recommended!“

“We love Rico Pollo and we eat at almost all of them. We particularly drove to this one from Greeley Colorado to eat here and they kicked us out. We had 10 minutes sweet. They didn’t wanna even let us eat there. I made them allow us to eat there if the door sign and if Google says you’re close by nine, then that’s what time you close not 15 or 20 minutes early. That’s bad customer service.“
