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

Dave's Hot Chicken is delicious! Came back last Thursday after a Padres game. Went with the 2 sandwich combo, medium heat. Medium is just enough heat to tingle your lips, but not hot enough to burn your mouth. The 2 sandwich combo is the way to go! The crunch on the batter is out of this world. The chicken is moist and delicious! Really enjoyed my sandwiches. I will be back again for sure! It's one of those foods that you crave and once you devour it, you say, "That hit the spot!". That is Dave's Hot Chicken in ... read more

This place is definitely a must try if you like chicken! I got the sliders and the recipe they use for the fried chicken, the coleslaw, and the sauce is very delicious. The portion sizes are generous. I ordered the #2 (2 sliders) to split with someone and it was a perfect amount of food. Will definitely be coming back!

I already absolutely loved this place because the food is so yummy, but the employees REALLY make the overall experience. Everyone is always so nice and Alma really made my night after I was having a really hard day. LOVE this place!

Dave's hot chicken is delicious. It's similar to Nashville hot chicken. The spicy levels are accurate. Trust!! The mild is really mild.... The hot is HOT!!! The chicken towards are huge. They are definitely not comparable in size to wings n things or Popeyes... triple the size. So when you order the 2 tender combined, it will absolutely be enough. Especially when it comes slices of white bread, pickles and fries. All extra sauce is an additional charge, keep in mind only one comes with the tender and tender plus slider combo... read more
