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

The food was good but Crystal's bubbly and positive attitude-- made my visit impeccable! I usually get two tenders or a slider in medium since I'm too weak for hot. This was my 3rd time having Dave's and first time dining in. I will def come back!

Dave's Hot Chicken is some of the best chicken I've had in a while. The chicken itself is flavorful, juicy, and has the perfect amount of spice. I got the hot level for both the tender and the slider, and this was definitely the way to go. The slider was my favorite, it was beautifully piled with slaw, pickles, the chicken, and Dave's sauce. The trick to the sauce is to add some honey and mix it with a fry. Dave's has a great atmosphere, and wonderful employees who made this experience so much fun. I can't wait to come back ... read more

By far a solid 9.5/10!! Customer service is so attentive and wants to make sure you have the best experience possible while here. Mixing honey into their signature sauce made it 10x better and was recommended by the manager. Would definitely come here again, combo #3 (tender and slider) is UNBEATABLE!!!

I've been wanting to try this place for awhile so I am happy I finally got the chance to. The food was amazing and did not disappoint. The portions sizes were crazy so I had to take it to go but I highly recommend this place. The service was fast and the employees were nice. I ordered the #3 combo FYI!

We tried this place for the first time: overall it was decent. The chicken sandwich/slider was good however the mac and cheese was disappointing. Try the sandwich avoid the mac & cheese.

Seems like my bad experience was just a one off and not really a reflection of the stores management. Julie reached out to me and rectified the situation. Thank you! 

Business response:

Vaiz - 2 stars? Blah! We can do way better! Would you be willing to connect with us at https://tellusdirect.com/dhc so we can get a second chance at earning those extra three stars? - Julie C.

I saw this place on Tiktok and had to try it. Yes -- it's so yum!!! I tried the "lite mild" level of heat cause I'm not good with spicy foods. It was so good. So tasteful. I tried combo #3 to try both the tender and slider. The amount of food is a lot so be hungry!!!! The place was clean! The staff was very nice. I was given free sauce to take with me cause that sauce is bomb!! We will definitely be crack!

Kimberly - Thanks for the love!

This MIGHT just might be the best hot chicken in the Dallas area! The reason for the big might is because I haven't tried all the places around here yet but I have a feeling Dave's Hot Chicken remains a top contender. I got the combo slider and tender, mild. Don't let mild fool you, because it still has enough flavor without the spice running down your face. Also, don't let it being a slider think you won't be full from the meal because you definitely will be more than satisfied! The fries were also delicious! I got the meal... read more
