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

WAY OVERPRICED! Good food. Service is good only complaint is they are charging way to much. Two tenders and bread $17 no thanks. Go to wing stop more bang for buck still chicken not filet mignon. Would coke back if prices went down

Daves Hot Chicken is ok. Mediocre in my personal opinion. The chalky dust powder flavor on the chicken is not my favorite. Banging Buns in North Hollywood is FAR BETTER!!!! But the macaroni and cheese is on point. Love me some creamy Mac and cheese. Flavor on point!

The chicken is great, but twice we have gone and they have told us sauce is in the bag and when we get home there's NOTHING!! Our bad for not looking but if they tell us it's in the bag we're gonna believe it! We come all the way from Santa Clarita so it's not a short drive. Very disappointing to get home and no sauce. The sauce is literally the best part.!! Also as I'm eating half of my fries are cold like cold cold like they weren't cooked through. Normally i have nothing bad to say about the food but tonight they really d... read more

Ordered 2 mild chicken tenders with fries. Not really spicy at all. Good flavor. Ordered mac n cheese and the container was half emtpy. I noticed the pictures others have posted showed full containers. Just wanted to say thank you to the workers for shorting me food.

This is the 2nd Dave's Hot Chicken I went to & while it isn't always super consistent, it usually is. Sometimes the quality isn't amazing, but during all these chicken shortages and price hikes I think it's understandable. They also forgot my shake here one time. I think in general though for the price, Dave's is great hot chicken. If you haven't tried it I definitely recommend. I love fried chicken sliders and their french fries are good too!

I see this place getting bigger and bigger. I even noticed another location (not this one) end up blocking traffic picking up orders for delivery. So this must be good. Now since it's in Northridge, I decided to order it though UberEats and give them a try. The chicken strips are quite big. Almost as big as another small restuarant I go to. The claw slaw is a good size. The complaint I have is even on mild side, still have some spice to it. Ok... ok... I know it's called Dave's Hot Chicken so I shouldn't complai... read more

I've seen this shop hot chicken craze no matter if I'm in Northern California, central California, or Southern California, so I decided to try this spot since I was around the area and it was open late. I was greeted upon entry and noticed how friendly and outgoing the staff were. There was cool artwork around the area along with the infamous hot chicken logo from social media. I decided to go with the Dave's #3 with some extra sauce to go. I was told the food would take around 5 minutes to come out (I was fairly shocked, es... read more
