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

Middle of the road experience for me here. Tried some sliders and strips, from mild to medium heat, not too spicy at all if you want that hot chicken taste i recommend at least medium or higher, I probably should have gotten more heat. Some pieces were juicy but some were dry, a little inconsistent on the cooking. Fries were decent, slaw tastes pretty healthy not covered in dressing so nice if you're looking for that. Overall just decent, I'll probably choose some other chicken/hot chicken places in the area next time.

Dave's is probably my favorite hot chicken spot. Definitely get the combo that has one slider and one chicken tender. There's not much else that needs to be said.

Dangerous. So so so dangerous. So dangerously good. My most doordashed item throughout the pandemic and probably for my life. Their chicken tenders are perfection. I've never ventured past the "hot" bc that'll do it for me but I hope to dare try the reaper someday. My go-to is the slider and tender combo. Their fries are crinkle cut which is awesome. Love love love Dave's !!!

The chicken here is fantastic! Service was great, food was made to order quickly. Processing portions are fair, the chicken was very crispy and seasoned well, fried perfectly. I'm not a huge fan of the crinkle fries but everything else was outstanding. Very clean and well run restaurant, highly recommend it!

If my wife has a bad day, I order her lunch from Dave's hot chicken. Never fails to make her happy. Don't eat at any other fried chicken joint. It sounds bias but I vouch for my review.

I ordered through the Yelp app and somehow they forgot my fries. Other than that the food was on point as always. Thanks

Definitely the best hot chicken place I've been to in Glendale thus far. I got the tenders and they were huge. The sauce is really tasty and so are the fries. Only thing I'd want is more pickles and next time I'd get medium hot instead of mild. In summary, heaven is for real.

It's the best Hot Chicken I've tried so far. The tenders are large, and I ordered the Extra Hot which had the right amount of spice. Both times I've ordered delivery my fries arrived crispy which is a great sign of fresh food. Also the "Dave's Sauce" the sauce for the chicken is in packets for convenience, and is as flavorful as the chicken. So delicious.

Dave's has always been a solid chicken spot in my book, but today really raised the bar. I pick up my chicken 15 minutes late and eat it half an hour after it was ready and the chicken was still some of the crispiest I've ever tasted. The slaw was still fresh and the fries not soggy. I honestly can't believe how great the food was. This location in particular is great because there's not really a line but parking can be tough. You can't go wrong with Dave's Hot Chicken.
