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

Food was amazing. But cashier girl was super strange. She had a crazy staring problem. With no shame. Visited 7/19 afternoon. I thought I was just being weird. But no she kept staring . Even my daughters mentioned it on their own. Made the vibe real weird. But the food was amazing , kiss the chef. Best chicken I've ever had !!

The food is delicious! Chicken is so tender! I had to go mild since it was my first time. Fries are good! Service was 10+!

I've been hearing mixed reviews on Dave's hot chicken, so I finally decided to check it out my self. I ordered online and the food was ready in 10 mins. I was greeted nicely for my pickup and the lady behind the counter was very nice great service. The restaurant was clean and well kept looked like a good place to dine in. I ordered the tender hot, and slider mild.I will say that they didn't disappoint the chicken is seasoned and spicy and when you add honey it puts it over the top. The fries were good, and I'm a big pickl... read more

Needed a spot to eat, on my drive out to LA. I hadn't had Dave's in awhile, so I decided to stop. Its right off the freeway about a block down on the left. Went with a Number 3, medium heat, and upgraded my fries to cheese fries. Food was great, as usual. The slider is better than the tender. It just works better with the soft bun and the slaw and sauce. The tenders are plenty delicious, but the sliders are the way to go. Medium heat is plenty spicy, but won't burn the hell out of your mouth. Cheese fries were bomb!... read more

My first visit. Service was friendly and efficient. Restaurant was clean. Lots of people like the food, because the order line got really long. Didn't take long to receive my order - 2 mild tenders and fries. Fries were amazing, but I did not enjoy the chicken at all. Weird coating, and pretty spicy for mild. I came, I ate and I won't be back.

The food is consistently good and the workers are always nice/chill. I always get the sliders with cheese, I got a mac and cheese this time and its not as great but not bad at all.
