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. THE JOURNEY After 6 months of running the pop-up with long lines, the team took the plunge and op... read more

So good, so simple. I really didn't expect this place to be as good as it is. One of the best spots for quick and easy fried chicken in town.

This location was in a tight parking lot, I was very excited to try it it was my first time. I got the the little mold slider and tender combo. The tender with the toast is such a BUST! Terrible it's a piece of candy wonder bread under the tender. Don't get it. But the sliders were delicious! I would get two sliders next time. Dave's sauce is okay nothing too special. It's a great place to try but not sure if it'll be a place I visit often.

Dave Dave Dave... you done it! You dun made me a happy camper. I was hungry, alone, and cold on this hot day in Los Angeles, but I just so happen to stumble upon this restaurant. I walked in and was welcomed almost immediately and just by the first interaction with workers, I felt like family. Finally I was apart of something bigger and it gave me purpose. My first bite was bliss.. my second bite was bliss plus+. That what I just had seemed to be a perfectly ripe slider picked from the garden of eden.. bathed in the waters o... read more

It was good, not sure I really see the hype though. I wouldn't write home to mom about this chicken or the sauce.

Dave's hot chicken is amazing! The only thing that has changed since their first or so year is that the crust isn't the same anymore. They don't have long lines anymore which is good, but I think that's the reason not that many people are coming back. Also they started adding less fries to your plate so that kind sucks. But over all of it's the only option you have around then yes definitely visit this place, Their spice levels are pretty hot so be careful, don't forget to ask for honey it's taste sooo much better with it.... read more
