If you've never heard of Dave's Hot Chicken, it was originally a West Coast thing, opening back in 2017 by three childhood friends.

It was such a big hit, the friends and an older brother decided to start expanding all over the country. Their goal?  To make juicy, spicy, hot chicken that will “Blow Your Mind.”

It's open late on the weekends

Give it a try. It's open even later on the weekends, turning into "Dave's After Dark."
