Daves Hot Chicken - Fountain Valley

I had a wonderful experience at this restaurant! The service was excellent, and the atmosphere was vibrant. I ordered a chicken slider without spice, and it was both generous in portion and exceptionally juicy. The bun was soft, and the blend of Dave's sauce and pickles was delicious and full of flavor. I can’t wait to return and enjoy this fantastic meal again. Cheers to Dave's Hot Chicken! I highly recommend it—I'm a very happy customer!

Come on, Dave's, you need to do better! On a positive note, the food itself was fantastic. The sandwich was excellent, the fries were crispy, and the flavors were bold and spot on. It was genuinely delicious and definitely the highlight of our lunch. I really hope they work on improving the atmosphere at this location, since the others are always so lively!

The chicken breast was of excellent quality and remained moist, which I appreciated. However, while the breading was nicely spiced, it didn't pack the punch I was anticipating. In comparison, Church's spicy fried chicken offers a better-seasoned breading that's tastier, spicier, and more flavorful, so I was hoping for a similar experience. I can usually handle a fair amount of heat, and I ordered the extra hot while my son chose the Reaper. The extra hot had some spice to it, but it fell short of the fiery kick I expected. Surprisingly, my son handled the Reaper without any trouble, suggesting it wasn't overly spicy. Nonetheless, we both thoroughly enjoyed our meals at Dave’s and agreed that it's the best chicken sandwich and chicken strips we've had to date—far surpassing Cane's.

Overall, the food was incredibly tasty, and the staff was exceptionally friendly and accommodating. A special thank you to Evelyn for making our visit so enjoyable!

Is this really what you call a proper serving of fries? I'm disappointed to pay ten dollars for such a small portion. Each order barely comes with a handful.
