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

Chanced to see a mention of this place on Bing Maps and knew I had to check it out. I love finding out if places are as "hot" as advertised, but sadly most aren't. They tend to hedge because most Americans are wusses where hot foods are concerned. Dave's didn't disappoint! I had the #3 at reaper heat and a side of mac and cheese. And the manager's eyes almost popped out when I said reaper, but I told him I was down for the challenge. I actually ate the tender straight up, no sauce or anything. And it was legitimately ho... read more

YUMMY YUMMY YUMMY! Waited in a long line through drive through but was worth it. The milkshakes were velvety and I drank that thing so fast, I couldn't eat my whole meal. I got one hot and one medium slider. The medium tasted like it didn't have anything on it but the hot was perfectly spiced. And the crunch was on point with a juicy inside. They gave us extra sauce at no charge but would prefer my ranch. I'm just a ranch person the sauce was good either way. Fries were crispy and perfectly seasoned and Mac n cheese was good... read more

From the order taking process, to getting our meal, Dave's did not disappoint. We were taken care of very quickly, and the food was very good! I wish we would have been in town for the grand opening, but never the less, we will be back again. I ordered the two sandwiches meal, and my fiancée ordered the tender and sandwich. She's had a special request for her meal and they took care of it without any hesitation. 10/10, best chicken in Dallas! I wish I would have gotten some of that merch tho, those headbands are amazing! 

Business response:

Wow! That's high praise, Jacob. Thanks for taking the time to share your feedback with us! Come back soon!! - Julie C.

The chicken is way too over spiced and too salty. I tried the mild and the medium heat. The mild was too spicy for my kids. They douse the chicken In the dry spice mix before they serve it. The fries are tossed in the same seasoning. I found it to be too overwhelming. Dave's sauce tastes like a homemade thousand island dressing. It was pretty good. The pickles are amazing. I give the Mac n cheese 5 stars! The texture and taste are perfect. Best I've had from a takeout spot. The food is a little pricey but the portions are hu... read more
