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

Went to Dave's Hot Chicken on Rosemead for the first time ever. The worker at the register was friendly. When I received the food, I was asked if I wanted any extra sauce or honey. I love when I don't have to ask for things; it's like they read my mind. Anyway, this location was pretty clean, and the food is delicious, and if I were in the area, I'd definitely go back. 

Business response:

Thanks for the kind words, Flor! We’re thrilled you had such a seamless experience, from the friendly service to the delicious food. It’s awesome to hear you felt taken care of, and we’d love to see you back when you’re in the area again!

After hearing about the praises about this place, I decided to give it a try and all I can say is that it's not very good. I ordered the two sliders with the standard coleslaw, pickle, and sauce at medium spiciness. With a drink, the price came out to over $19. I couldn't really feel anything even though it was at a medium and I normally feel a lot of heat from something like a jalapeno with seeds. The chicken tenders use some nice quality meat, but they were only crisp for about the first two bites or so before it just turn... read more

Ooooooweeee that's some finger lickin good chicken sandwich. Their flavor and crunch is diff from other fast food chicken sandwich spots. The chicken came out piping hot too. You have to try it to know what I mean. I ordered 2 sliders combo which came with fries. You can choose the spice level. Drinks are ordered separately. They have a really cool and inviting decor. Outdoor seating is available as well. Parking right outside shared with other establishments.

Super fast! I always order online and the food is prepared within 5-10 min! I love the online ordering system and the food is always great. The parking lot has a ton of parking.

3.8 stars As far as chicken tender & chicken sliders go, I think Dave's hot chicken does a pretty good job. Spice selection goes from no spice to really spicy & the portion was very filling. The pricepoint is a bit higher than I expected for a chicken shop, but I guess that is to be expected in today's economy... I ordered the #2, which was 2 sliders w/ fries ($16.41 including tax). Drinks are a separate charge, but free with Yelp check-in (when I went). Portion was good for me & mom share. Free parking on site. Interior ... read more

Food was good but the cashier saidee seemed like she didn't want to work today. Gave me attitude right when I ordered. She should be happy she has a job and not be so angry.

the quality of the chicken is so juicy and flavorful. it does it for me everytime! i came here on the 24th for drake's birthday & got the free slider. the wait wasn't so bad, it took around 20 minutes overall. they were extremely busy though & i can tell they were working hard that day. the vibes are chill though & the size of the tender was worth every bite.
