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 opene... read more

Glad to finally have some hot chicken in the desert. Got the two slider combo with the hot level seasoning. Great flavor. Solid heat. Great fries. I will be coming back.

The tenders at Daves are huge and were delicous. you have your spice levels from none to super spicy. A little price but they were great, and i had one tender as a slider and the slaw was excellent. Stop by when you can

Food is good but I had a colored hair cashier with a major attitude. It's also a bit gross that every single table is sticky every single time.

Nice people. Very quick. Awesome street art on the walls. Up-tempo LA vibe. Big meaty pieces of chicken. Really good pickle slices, with snap and bite. But ...

Bottom line: premium price for an average ... read more

I love Dave's. I love the different levels of spice that you can try and the many sides as well. I also love the fact that its open till midnight to 1am. What I don't like is that they don't deliver. Maybe soon they will. One last thing is that the meat is halal. So yay for that!!
