Dave's Hot Chicken Mendocino Ave

Dave’s Hot Chicken in Santa Rosa never misses. Every time I have ordered, the food arrives hot—like straight-from-the-kitchen, fresh-every-single-time hot. The quality is unbelievably consistent, and honestly, I’ve never been disappointed. The portion sizes are legitimately worth the value. You actually feel like you’re getting what you paid for (and then some). The chicken is juicy, the spice levels are on point, and the fries and sauces always hit exactly the way they should. If you’re craving something flavorful, filling, and reliably delicious, add this to your favorites!. Highly recommend!

Cheri provided outstanding customer service, she went above and beyond to make our lunch special while celebrating a birthday. She was so nice and thoughtful, had a great experience.

I ordered a slider and a tender, but as soon as I tasted the slider I marched back up to order 2 more. Really good. The tenders are good but the sliders are crazy good. I mixed Dave's sauce and honey, per the employees suggestion, and it was great. Edit: i love that they replied to this review, these people CARE. The employees were awesome, really friendly and helpful. Nice change from certain other chicken joints where everyone acts like they're a zombie. I arrived on the bus in Santa Rosa and went straight to this place, waited for them to open, and nothing about it disappointed. Cool art on the walls too
