Dave's Hot Chicken Reviews
The chicken is definitely hot. But that’s it. No other seasoning touched that chicken. I had to get a salt packet for my tenders. The toast has no butter on it, as well.
Apparently this place started in LA. Heard there was one near my old hometown (Columbia South Carolina) so I scoped out the menu online thinking I’d try it. Unfortunately it looks like they’re still charging Los Angeles prices here in the southeast. A measly 2 tenders with fries (drink not included) for $12? A box of 10 tenders (no sides) for $40? You’ve gotta be kidding me!
i got a nice black hair in one of my food containers a couple weeks ago from the Craig Rd location in North Las Vegas Nevada. absolutely disgusting, I struggled to finish my food after seeing that as it significantly affected my appetite.
