About this business

TO LIVE AND FRY IN L.A. In 2017, four childhood friends came up with a simple concept — take Nashville Hot Chicken and make it better than anyone else in America. With only a couple thousand dollars to their name, they boot-strapped a pop-up concept in a parking lot in East Hollywood serving a simple menu of tenders, sliders, fries, and kale slaw — they created a viral cult following with lines consistently over an hour long.

This is my first visit at the Hot Dave’s Chicken. Restaurant. Ashley this really friendly cashier said their restaurant at this location has been in business for 2 months now.

First time visitor. Seen Grand Opening sign and stopped in right before noon. Food was absolutely great. Employees were professional, helpful and courteous. Loved that the chicken was freshly cooked upon order. Became quite crowded in about 15 minutes as lunch folks came in. Chicken can be prepared mild or spicy. "Sliders" were actually burger size.

Stopped in for lunch, waited a little while in a semi longer line maybe 10 min or so, We’ll worth it! The number 4 slider and fries was the perfect amount for myself for lunch, the pickle chips were a huge plus! Food taste great, and taste quality, medium was perfect heat! Will definitely be becoming a frequent visitor to this location

So glad they opened this place here in Oceanside, the atmosphere is awesome the graffiti style artwork is amazing, the food is actually good the chicken is actually spicy if you order it spicy. I recommend it if you’ve never had it. Worth the try.

We went on opening day 3/10/2023. It’s a new location, new crew, I’d say they did a great job! The line was to the end of the building and took about 10 minutes to get to order which I didn’t think was bad. Then about a 10 minute wait for our order to be ready. All staff was very friendly, atmosphere bright and colorful. We anticipated there being a lot of people so we opted to order To Go but do definitely see us eating there in the future. Chicken was moist, easy to pull apart, with just enough breading. The cook on ... read more
