The title doesn’t lie. I tried the reaper, and it was the hottest thing I had ever had in my life. In fact I could only take one bite. The staff were attentive and offered to give me something else when they saw me struggling. Regardless, it was a great experience. Also, the area looks nice and they got cool music in the back that isn’t too loud or quiet. 10/10, would recommend. Just don’t get the reaper unless you are a brave soul and prepared to sign a waiver.

I've seen a lot of review videos about the joint itself and I couldn't go any longer without trying it for myself. I was blown away by the flavors, the chill vibe, wonderful service, and just how tasty everything is!

This place is definitely one of the friendliest places I have eaten at. The cashier at the front Jamie was so friendly and helpful, she was also very quick. I would definitely recommend this place if you would like some chicken!

The Reaper is not to be trifled with! I had two Extra Hot tenders and a Reaper slider, and all 3 were fantastic! They had me sign a waiver because of how intensely hot it is...and they are not wrong! Be prepared if you get it, and I suggest getting the honey they ask if you want. I didn't take any, and when I got home and ate it, I poured honey into my mouth from my bottle at home lol. It helped bring that heat down to manageable. But seriously this is a really flavorful chicken joint and I highly recommend you give it a try!

Had to give Dave's a try after seeing all of the commercials. It's almost like walking into an old malt shop type diner. Has that kind of look going on. The service is great. There is a short wait, but it is short and worth it :) I love that they have different Levels of heat. I haven't been brave enough to try The Reaper yet though..lol Just the Hot is...WooHoo Mamma!! Love that they have the NOT chicken too. The cauliflower is amazing! Excellent bites and sandwich. The chicken itself is very tasty and the Kale slaw is super yummy too. I always order an extra side of the kale slaw. The Dave's sauce is really good and I like dipping my fries in it :) Great Place, Great People, Great food. Can't ask for more than that!Vegetarian options: They have cauliflower bites/ sandwiches & kale slaw for the vegetarians.

I have yet to be in Dave's until tonight on a whim. When I walked in I absolutely loved the atmosphere, a young woman helped me with all the questions I had and the service was amazing! Thanks for a great experience Dave's!
