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.

First time having Dave's! I ordered the Dave's #2 $17.87: lite mild, add cheese to sliders and fries. Lisa was very friendly, ensuring we had enough Dave's sauce and hot honey. She also provided extra pickles upon my request! Dave's chicken sliders were definitely quite refreshing with the pickles and the slaw. I definitely enjoyed it! There is seating inside, although tables can get a bit dirty and no one was really cleaning it up. Street parking only. Excited to try other Dave's locations!

LISA is the BEST... if y'all don't toss that amazing woman a raise/promotion I'd be really let down... she helped my girlfriend pick the best seasoning, gave us an extra daves sauce, and told us some awesome jokes... we had an extra long wait because we showed up at 12:45 am, got our food at 12:50, and it was a helluva lot of food... i juzt really think y'all shlould make this lady a manager because she was the only reason i didn't throw a tantrum waiting for the food.

Once again , the staff are very very kind and welcoming into the establishment. Despite the wait time , my friends and I enjoyed the tunes they had playing outside.

I came with a big group of people (around 20), but the food came out so fast + it tasted pretty good. I ordered on the kiosk which was a smooth experience, and the lady passing out the food was really friendly. She recommended to mix the honey and Dave's sauce and it was sooo good. I recommend!!
