Dave’s Hot Chicken recently opened up here in Fountain Valley, California on December 23, 2020, and is founded by Chef Dave Kopushyan..

In total, there are 7 spices for the chicken that you can choose, which are no spice, mild, medium, hot, extra hot, and reaper.

 According to Aalia A. on Yelp she says, “Uhm Yum. If you’ve never hopped on this chicken-eating trend let me tell you, you need to!”

Dave’s Hot Chicken allows you to add a slider or a tender to your combo. The extra slider ends up costing $5.45 and an extra tender is $3.85. Combo number 1 which comes with 2 tenders and fries costs $10.99. Combo number 2 which is 2 sliders with fries costs $12.99. Combo number 3 which is one slider and one tender with fries cost $11.99.

According to Roni Medina, a freshman at Segerstrom High School, he says, “The chicken is so good and I would recommend the sliders but if it’s your first time then I recommend trying the slider with the tender.”

There is another location of Dave’s Hot Chicken in Los Angeles, but this place is probably the most convenient for those who live in Santa Ana. 

As you can see Dave’s Hot Chicken is really good, and I say it is particularly worth giving a try at that slider because of how tender and spicy it is.
