Daves Hot Chicken in other cities:
If I could give it a higher score I would. The employees are very friendly and act as though they are genuinely glad to see you. Especially Brandon, say hello to him and tell him Randy sent you, and Victoria is awesome too. Eduardo is the Man when it comes to preparing the reaper chicken. Oh, and Bianca is a pretty awesome employee as well. I have done the chip Challenges and the peanut challenges, in the past, and I had no problem finishing them. I frequent Hot Heads in Florida when i am there and they have a good straight Habenaro sauce there. However, two pieces of the reaper tenders to me is hot. HOT!! In a very good spicy way. The tenders are always big pieces, just cooked and very Juicy. The place has always been clean anytime that I have visited them. So, if you consider yourself to be a HOT HEAD then you need to do yourself a huge favor and get your hot on at Daves Hot Chicken on Hwy 6 in Missouri city Texas. The above picture is of the Reaper, SPICY HOT, one pc tender and the other is the no season one pc tender. I have tried the hot and mild. They are all great. Enjoy!!!!
Amazing customer service however the food was not the best. I bit pricey for a chicken place, where other place I get $5 for chicken sandwich. David chicken sauce they included was tangy and odd with the chicken didn’t go together. Plus the fries are very very over seasoned. Nevertheless good Environment nice if you want to try something new but not my top 10
Love their chicken! Not many options but, sometimes, simple is best. Always moist and tasty. Surprisingly filling! I havent had any of the sides other than the fries (which are perfect with the Daves sauce!) because the fries are enough. My only complaint is its a bit pricey. Its simple food...shouldnt be quite that high.
Our first experience and it was great! The chicken was perfectly cooked and the fries were delicious. The dry rub and flavor take a few minutes of adjusting but once you get used to it, the flavors are perfect. Even better with Daves sauce! Be careful, the spices are hot even when mild. Chicken is also Halal certified.
Very excited to have Daves Hot Chicken in Mo City! A refreshing eatery aside from the monotonous chainlike restaurants that run along Highway 6.We tried their 2 Sliders with Fries and opted for a Spice level of Hot.... YUM!! The Tenders were very nicely portioned and the spice was... HOT as advertised! Just what I like. Also, Daves Sauce was perfect! The staff was extra friendly and everything turned out spectacular! I also want to mention, the owners did a great job with the overall aesthetics of the building!Welcome to Mo City Daves Hot Chicken!!
Menu is simple, now thats not a bad thing when the food is good. We ordered the mild #2 and #3 (#2being sliders & #3 being 1 slider and 1 tender) The mild wasnt hot at all, chicken was tender and seasoned well but if you want hot dont be afraid to explore their other spice levels! Service was great, dining area was very well kept up with and the de or is pretty cool. Love the drive through option. Cant wait to go back.
All I can say is Excellent! Im relatively new to the area. Took my two boys for lunch and it was fantastic. At first I was taken aback by the prices but once we got our food, the chicken portions were very large. Doesnt matter if you get sliders, tenders by themselves, its all the same large pieces ! Fries were great, Mac and cheese was great and the slaw on the sliders was wonderful and added a nice crunch. Staff was very friendly and helpful. Most definitely will be back!
Went here to eat with my dad and brothers. I had been hearing a lot about this place but after my visit I was ultimately quite disappointed.The restaurant itself is very nicely decorated and the staff is also very good. The overall vibe of the restaurant is quite good.The biggest problem is the food itself. First of all the prices are very overpriced for the amount of food you are getting. I ordered a #3 - Slider and Tender combo. The sandwich was just plain and the sauce isn’t all that good either. The biggest problem is the spice blend on the chicken. Very bad combination of flavors and very unpleasant to eat. Also the chicken was covered in so much seasoning and was very powdery. This place is sub par at best, and you’ll be better off getting Raising Cane’s.
Just tried this place out today. They have a fairly new location here on Hwy 6 I pass all the time. We got the hot and extra hot tenders with fries. They didn’t disappoint either. Fries have a nice season on them and tenders are decent sized and juicy. Sauce is a good cool down for the heat as extra spicy was more than I expected lol. Would surely go back.
Super good. I got the hot chicken. The chicken was cooked to perfection, the heat level was enjoyable and flavorful. The cheese fries were delicious as well. This location was clean and the staff was friendly and professional. I hope they keep the awesome work and continue to push out delicious food. BTW the manager was on top of it!!!!!
I ordered a #2 (2 sliders w/ fries), but what I got was a half-finished order, where instead of 2 sliders, its just a piece of untoasted, white bread and a chicken per slider. They either mustve forgot parts or didnt bother finishing my order. They used to be so good when they opened, but the food quality has definitely declined, where they went from two actual toasted burger buns, kale slaw, pickles, and delicious chicken, to this. The only reason I didnt give it 1 star is because they at least got the fries right, the spicy level of the chicken correct, and bothered to at least give me 1 honey packet and Daves sauce for the order.When this location opened, it was definitely worth the price, but now, if you want to order drive thru from here, make sure to open the box they give you, so you can at least make sure you get all that you paid for, instead of having to compromise your hard-earned money for sub-par quality.
So I had been waiting for this place to open after hearing good things about it, so we tried it yesterday and let me tell you the hype isn’t all that, it’s okay! not great! The tenders were over seasoned i got medium heat which was perfect in spice wise but honestly I didn’t like the tenders my husband had the burger and that was a little better but still over seasoned. I don’t know if it’s cause it’s freshly new but to be honest it wasn’t great! If you like trying new places give it a shot but I will not be giving it a second one pretty pricey to for a few options on the menu. I would say the tenders are big though.
Objective rating:The restaurant is clean, service is friendly and fast, price is appropriate given current inflation, chicken was cooked perfectly (fully cooked but still juicy). Definitely worth the try!Subjective rating:I got the lite-mild and found it to be too spicy. For reference, I found it to be spicier than the spicy sandwhiches at Wendys or Chick-fil-a. The spice seems to be from a rub they coat the chicken in rather than a hot sauce, so I struggled with how it felt dry even though it was really juicy inside.I dont think this is a good place for me, but if you like really spicy food, this will probably be perfect for you. (It is called Hot Chicken for a reason) I definitely suggest everyone try it at least once.
This is by far, the best chicken place ever. Sure you only have a few choices but they are yummy. My husband and I both had ‘hot’ and it was just the right amount of spice. There is no greasy feeling or over battered chicken. And the chicken is so so so tender. We had a sandwich the next day with the little bit of chicken we couldn’t eat the night before and it was still juicy and tender. The service with a smile topped it off. We are definitely coming back.
We tried this place out this evening for the first time and it was REALLY GOOD. I was honestly skeptical before going in because, you know, does the world really need another chicken place? But let me tell you - yes. Yes it does. The chicken was juicy, flavorful, and had just the right amount of spice (you pick your heat level). The medium set my lips on fire but I didnt care because that slider was so dang good. And the fries have a tasty seasoning on them as well. Of course, I had to wash it down with a chocolate shake. We cant wait to go back!
First time in. The food was good. The chicken strips are bigger than other places. Their fries and Mac n cheese was great. I was happy with the service. Warning dont order the Reaper flavor unless you have a super high tolerance for spice. Mine is high and it had my eyes watering! I recommend this place.
The food tasted fine but attention to detail is not this locations best skill. Ordered a #3 Daves to go. It suppose to come with 2 Daves sauces but when I arrived home and looked in my bag there were NONE! I guess this part of New employee training wasnt a top priority. Oh yeah NO PLASTIC UTENSILS either.
Dont eat spicy but luckily they had none spicy and it was real good. Season was still there with none spicy. The slider buns are perfect, fresh and love the Daves sauce all over that there sandwich 😁. A lil on the pricey side but I think its worth it. My first time and Ill be back. 👍🏾
Finally one of the best fast food chain in the area. Tried it for the first time and I must say I’m impressed! An elevated chicken sandwich with an added texture into it! I must try when your in the area. Not dry unlike other chicken sandwich around. A happy tummy 😋😋😋
Had the sandwich meal. Pretty good overall, more expensive than youd think ($13) but the 2 sandwich sliders were quite large, very filling, and delicious. I recommend the spicy, I had the hot which is the middle spice, and it was pretty spicy. They have a no spice option as well, but its not as good. I would definitely be going back
Our family recently took a trip to Nashville where we got to try the hometown of hot chicken. It was a hit! When we got home we looked for hot chicken here in town. I stumbled across Daves Hot Chicken, which did not disappoint! If you have not been I highly recommend 👌
We got a tenders meal hot and a sliders meal mild. The sliders arent really sliders it is more like two chicken sandwiches. The spice level for the hot was a bit much coming from a person who puts hot sauce on everything. The mild was more hot than not. The food overall was good, and the amount of food was decent. The price is a bit higher than what you would spend elsewhere but I would go again as the taste good.
The chicken tasted quite good, although there is a steep incline in spice from medium to hot and would recommend medium heat. Additionally, the fries tasted nice and I enjoyed the mac and cheese. Finally, I tried the chocolate shake which was really thick and delicious. My only complaints would be that first, most of the chickens flavor comes from seasoning placed on top and that it isnt greatly flavorful from the interior, and finally that it is quite expensive relative to other fried chicken places. Otherwise, I enjoyed my experience here.
1st time we ordered, I got the hot and it was a little on the omg my tongue is going to burn offside. 2nd time I went with medium and it was perfect. On the advice of another reviewer, I put the Daves sauce and honey on the sandwich. It takes it to the next level! Little pricey, but it will fill you up!
Idk what they cook their meat in but me and all my friends had diarrhea the next day and my boyfriend ended up throwing up all of his food before we even left the building. Not to mention, the man serving us acted like a school teacher when you talk while theyre talking. When My friends and boyfriend first came in the man serving us was explaining the menu to us. While he was doing so one of my friends was talking to another in the group and wasnt paying attention to what the man was saying. So instead of the man continuing and letting my friend figure it out for themselves he stopped talking completely and says Are you don talking? Im trying to help and explain the menu to you My friend then apologizes and the man explains again what was on the menu. My friends, my bf and i are never coming back here for the overall experience and slightly tense customer service.
Overly seasoned, taste nothing but the salty seasoning and the sauce. We ordered 3 meals mild, med and hot. Aside from the med and hot looking darker and redder they all tasted like the same amount of spice. I got the medium and normally other hot chicken places the medium is boarder-line too spicy. Here the medium could pass off as mild, the seasoning had more of a kick than the spice did.The girl that bagged my order could care less about her job, I gave two stars only because the food was labeled and came out hot. Everything else needs work.
Husband and I came here after work one evening and ordered two sandwiches hot with no pickles.Got home it was loaded with pickles and they gave us the mild chicken. The restaurant was closed and we were tired.Very disappointed seeing as this location just opened and we tried the one on Westheimer and loved it.
We have been waiting for months waiting for this place to open. First experience and i so wanted to give 5 stars! so close... Parking is a challenge as the drive thru threads around the store blocking 90% of parking. Business is good as the drive thru was packed. Very friendly staff, easy straight forward menu and the service was fast. The chicken was extremely fresh and cooked perfectly. My son got the medium hot, while i ordered a hot and a very hot. Both were delicious and both were spicy but nothing you cant handle if you like it that way. I will save the Reaper for another day as you have to sign a waiver. The fries are crinkle fries and they have spice on them as well. pretty good but i like a crispier fry. The coleslaw was a huge disappointment though, bitter and not much flavor. This can be a debate for some, as i love a sweeter creamier slaw especially when eating hot chicken. The pickles didnt do it for me either, was hoping for a bread and butter style but alas they were dill of some kind. The bread in the bottom of the container was a good idea, acts as an insulator for the trip home. Oh and the Daves sauce that comes with the meal was nice. Kind of a thousand island ketchup mix i think. All in all yes we are going back for sure. I will just order a little differently, and i will be signing the waiver. :) Good Job Dave, and welcome to the neighborhood.
Went here when they first opened and ordered a slider with medium spice. I’ve been to several hot chicken establishments and have found the medium to be perfect for me. Not here. It was way too mild and there was no flavor. I thought why not give them another chance and try the next level up. So, 2 days ago I ordered a hot slider via drive thru, pulled up and paid. Several minutes after paying they told me they are no longer doing sliders and only tenders. This was at 5pm. So, I left empty handed. Third time’s the charm??? I guess I’ll never know.
Service was great! When you ask for extra sauce, they don’t bug you by saying they will charge extra. Also, the food was hot when served. It’s nothing like Haddie B’s in Nashville, but it’s definitely up there in the ranks. One of the best hot chicken places in the Houston area as of now. But watch out, Haddie B’s is actually coming to the Houston area soon.
The chicken is bland and they just throw cayenne powder on it to make it “hot”. Chicken was so bland I couldn’t eat it all. The sauce didn’t help. Milkshake was ok. Mac & cheese was good.Number three combo with a side of mac & cheese and a milkshake was $22Definitely over priced.
The food is good, however Ive tried to order online several times during my lunch break, and it is never able to complete the order. Never getting past the section where I choose whether to checkout as a guest or signup as a member. Both with laptop and cell phone Ive never gotten past this section.And it keeps making the page refresh over and over again interrupting the process. This needs to be fixed ASAP.
I visited for lunch and was disappointed. Paid $17 for the two chicken strip meal (hot), side of kale slaw and a small fountain drink. The slaw and drink cost extra. The chicken is heavily coated in dry rub. I was expecting a wet rub/glaze. The hot spice level was quite hot which I generally like but just didnt like the flavor of this chicken. The fries, dipping sauce & chicken itself (without the coating) was good . The bread was rather dry and stale. The kale slaw is terrible, extremely bland. The staff did allow me to trade the slaw for mac n chz which was a good sign of customer service and is why I added a star. The mac n chz is also quite bland. I probably wont return.
Great customer service the girl standing outside taking orders on Sunday was extremely sweet she knew exactly how to advertise everything! And on top of that all of my food was correct , everyone saying it was overpriced or “hyped” cap 🧢 Food was amazing I will definitely be back.
Man! Best hot chicken place here in Houston. So first off I heard of Daves Hot Chicken when trying to figure out who to try, Daves or Clutch City Cluckers. Majority chose Clutch city, I hated it. They were over priced, chicken dry as sand paper and they literally put a dab of sauce on that burger, u cant even taste it! So driving down hwy 6 I pass Daves, I u-turn to give it a try. Man! Best decision ever. I am not a white meat eater but Daves made me a believer! I got the 2 slider meal, 12.99. I added cheese for $1. Drive thru, Service was nice as I ordered and I didnt feel rushed to order. Omg! The food was plated so nice in the tray, extra pickles and sauce no extra charge! I bit into that sandwich and was in heaven! It was full of flavor and so frickin juicy! I literally couldnt not believe it. The fries were hot n crispy n seasoned! Ive been craving this burger again ever since! Going back today. Daves is a must try, I mean this with all sincerity! Clutch city Cluckers dont stand a chance against Daves, try them both yourself and become a believer. Ive told everyone about Daves, u will do the same! 🙂

2022-04-30We enjoyed our visit. I ordered the #3, one slider and one tender with fries, hot. My wife ordered a #2, two sliders with fries, medium. Meals dont come with a drink, which is surprising given the cost..The fries are seasoned and pretty good. You get plenty of them. With the seasoning, they are not an antidote to the hot chicken, however. You get a slice of bread and a couple pickles for that..The chicken was cooked very well. It was still juicy inside. The coating was flavorful; spicy, yes, but not just spicy. I think there was a hint of sweet too..One thing that I missed was a fork and knife. I got a thing against dirty fingertips, ya know? And I paid the price later when I rubbed my eyes, despite washing my hands..On the other hand, the place is very clean. I saw the manager wiping tables, and then a staffer did again just a little later. Nice..This was a good meal, but the price puts it in the premium category. We enjoyed it enough to come again, but not often.

2022-04-09Ordered 2 Sliders with cheese fries. I could only eat one slider and it was pretty good. I usually don’t like pickles or coleslaw on my sandwich but I did on these. Plenty of extra pickles and sauces were included without me asking. The fries were good, but I didn’t care for the taste of the cheese sauce. I do think the price point is high.

2022-04-24The staff is all very friendly and do a great job. My rating is due to the price and food. It was $12 for a combo, surprisingly it didn’t come with a drink, which was $2.25 extra. $14.25 for a meal of 2 tenders and crinkle cut fries and a small drink is pretty steep. I expected the food to be extremely wonderful for the price. The chicken was tender and similar to dark meat although it was white meat (the best thing about it). The fries were less than average. If you like raising cane’s a lot you might like this. The seasoning on the chicken was nice- it was unique because it seemed to have a hint of cinnamon and sugar. I suspect the recipe is something like salt pepper, paprika, curry powder, fajita seasoning, cayenne pepper, rosemary, maybe a few other things. This is a place that is fun to try once (like me), but not something you get all the time. The price is a bit premium for food that’s not premium.

2022-04-26Daves lives up to the hype. The food is good. The marinade/sauce they use is smokier than to other Nashville hot chicken places we have gone to. The sliders are the size of a regular chicken sandwich. I dont even get the sliders meal anymore I just order one slider with fries and cheese on the side to dip because the portions are that large. The restaurant was clean and I saw them cleaning after each table was unoccupied.

2022-06-01Love Dave’s Hot Chicken! We have tried a couple different options but my husband and I have settled on sharing a number 2 (2 sliders with fries), hot, with cheese 👌. The hot is pretty hot, so be prepared lol. We always go through the drive-through and have had a pleasant experience each time.

2022-05-24A friend from out of state introduced us to Daves. He first tried it in Vegas. At first we thought it wont fill you up since it is just a slider / tender. Contradicting to that, we all sre full after eating there. The chicken is very flavorful and moist. We tried the lite mild, mild, medium and hot. And wow the heat does escalate. The sliders have a good balance of the chicken and the coleslaw in it. The bread was just ordinary. But with the coleslaw and chicken, makes it so good.

2022-01-17I think this is the best Nashville Hot Chicken restaurant I’ve tried in Houston. I got the number #2 which comes with two sliders and fries.This should be enough for two people. We also got a side of mac and cheese which was pretty good. The chicken tender was flavorful and crispy on the outside and moist on the inside. I recommend dipping the sandwich in the Dave’s sauce and honey. This will add even more flavor. They also have a drive-thru.

2022-04-22The food was hot, fresh and made to order. The chicken was tender and juicy. And, the cheese fries were on point. Id say if you like seasoned good food, go try Daves, you wont regret it.

2022-04-30Dipping sauce is mayonnaise with some salt. Horrendous.Fries are delicious and the meat on the tenders is white and good.The batter? I got mild and it just tasted like air fried salt …………. And the Mac & cheese? I cried when I ate it. It tastes like old cheese mixed with some paprika or something. Very disappointed considering everything looked so aesthetically pleasing….. flavor gets literally 0 / 10 pretty expensive too. Not worth it go to canes or Chick-fil-A for more food and better taste

2022-05-15Didn’t provide any sauce on the side so we used our own ketchup mix. The tender was crispy but super salty…Ever since the grand opening the chicken has not been the same. Not sure I’ll be coming back again .
