Dave's Hot Chicken

Hot Chicken slider was very tasty, well seasoned. The tables and decor were on point. I recommend anyone who loves fried chicken and fries to Visit Dave's Hot Chicken in Tustin.

It was my first time coming in and I ordered the New Dave's Bites with 10 bites made fresh(Medium Hot). Only 3 options for spice on the Bites but simple is better and perfect for $9.99 with a side of fries. I hope to try the chicken sandwich next time. The chicken was surprisingly tender and juicy so if you like chicken it's a must try. This location has a comfortable outdoor patio with umbrellas and an out of this world graffiti scene with interdimensional chicken man on a UFO 👽 theme.

The Reaper chicken. That's what I've been seeing on social media. I got it. It was hot, but not as hot as everyone made it seem. Don't get me wrong, it was delicious and very spicy. But it's not for the weak. 👍

It's just a fun place to eat chicken 🐔 My girls love this place. Retro and colorful. Clean and well maintained. The menu is super small and easy to order from. Quick service, the staff is attentive and super outgoing . The chicken can be mild to super hot, and the eating ambiance with all the art is very 😎 cool. A must visit for chicken

I genuinely love Dave’s. Every location I’ve visited has been impressively clean and thoughtfully designed with a youthful, vibrant atmosphere that immediately makes you feel welcome. The staff are always incredibly friendly, creating a positive and inviting experience from the moment you walk in. On top of that, the food is absolutely amazing — fresh, flavorful, and consistently satisfying. Another huge plus is how affordable everything is, making it easy to enjoy without breaking the bank. But what truly sets Dave’s apart for me is that all of their food is halal. Knowing that I can enjoy such delicious meals while adhering to my dietary needs makes the experience even more special. It’s rare to find a place that checks all the boxes like Dave’s does.

This is my second time at a Dave's. The first was during COVID when there was no inside dining. It was nice eating inside to enjoy my meal. Today is the official grand opening day. People were lined up an hour early. I ordered the two piece tender with fries and a side of Mac and cheese. The heat level was extra hot and Reaper. The tenders were juicy and flavorful. The Reaper spice was weak. It needs to be kicked up a notch or two. The Mac and cheese was very good. Service was great. All the employees had a high energy level and were happy. There's plenty of indoor and outdoor seating. Parking is no problem too. I'll be back.

Deliciously fiery and flavorful, Dave's hot chicken is a must-try! Perfectly crispy on the outside, juicy on the inside, and just the right amount of heat to keep you coming back for more. Accompanied by mouthwatering sides, it's a meal you won't soon forget

I am obsessed with Dave's Hot Chicken, and they made everything so so good here. Food was cooked to perfection. The flavor, the freshness, the quality, everything. The only complaint i have about this location is the music was too loud. From both the dine in area and the kitchen. Other than that, i would for sure make another trip here.

CALL THE FIRE DEPARTMENT CUZ DAVE'S HOT CHICKEN IS ON FIRE🔥🔥🔥 (If you find this post helpful, please leave a like) Dave's does not disappoint, it's a clean restaurant with a simple menu and they perfectly execute what they do. And that's hot fried chicken. Albeit, chicken tenders and chicken sliders only, they do it extraordinarily well. I ate the Reaper spice level (aka CAROLINA REAPER). Yep, it is freaking HOT! I would order it again too. Before you get your reaper style food you must sign a waiver- I did so with some apprehension but I pushed through the fear and signed. I've been wanting to attempt this spice level for weeks, so no "chickening'' out now, pun intended. The chicken is juicy, the batter is crunchy and socked with reaper powder that is packed on thick. Am not sure how they coat it onto the fried chicken tenders but they do it with perfection. Reaper is balls hot, and messy. (Tricky and FUN to eat) I'd go back for more but in the moment while eating reaper hot is difficult to get through it. Upon order, I replaced my french fries with Daves Mac n cheese which was good, nothing spectacular but it was above average good (if Mac n cheese is your thing). The Dave's sauce is nice, imagine like, In and Out sauce and Big Mac sauce had a baby- that's DAVE'S Sauce. Delicious! There is a short simple menu. I had the #3 substitute fries for Mac n cheese. The total bill came to $14.68 which is super exspensive! But it's worth trying in my opinion. Unfortunately these days fast food restaurants are more exspensive than buying a car but hey.. that's life these days. Come to DAVE'S HOT CHICKEN you will love it. Just make sure to order a slider and if you're not wimp, try REAPER🔥🔥🔥🥵 I will be back

My family and I order Dave’s Hot Chicken regularly. We haven’t found another place that makes chicken like this in a variety of heat levels. Sliders are our favorite-generous portion, amazing flavor, texture, and always hot!
