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 definitely takes the prize for the best fried chicken I've ever had, the breading is so delicious and flavorful and the chicken is always soft and stays warm for long periods of time, 100% recommended this place for somebody whose craving good fried chicken. Although it does vary from place to place on how long it takes. Inside is very bright and colorful.

This was my first time at Dave's Hot Chicken! The employees were friendly and helpful but I unfortunately didn't like the food. The wait time was long as well! I prefer Cane's.

Dave's Hot Chicken sandwiches are a bit unique and are by far the best I've ever eaten. We have ordered from Dave's several times now and the service is always good-kind staff, accurate order, clean restaurant. Already looking forward to the next time we can make it back there!

I don't know how I'd never tried hot chicken before, but it was delicious! The heat levels were accurate and the staff had some different suggestions for combos and sauce pairings. Friendly service! Absolutely recommend.

I came here this past Sunday for lunch. It was my first time trying Dave's Hot Chicken so I was quite excited. When walking inside, I noticed the interior of the restaurant was Space Jam themed. The staff member was quite nice when I was at the counter ordering my food. I got the #4, which was 1 slider with fries. My spice level was a medium because I did not feel like anything too spicy at the time. I also got a medium sized fountain drink as well. When I finished ordering I sat down at the only table that was left and wait... read more
