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

When I'm looking for a late night meal my go to is always Dave's. Dave's in my opinion has one of the best chicken sandwich around and the portion size is something I feel they never skimp on. The way their coleslaw tastes allows me to never feel icky after finishing the two sliders and their fries don't ever feel too heavy. I do believe the price is on the slightly higher side but still I do think it's worth it. Also just as a friendly reminder I fairly enjoy spice but I do think hot is pretty hot compared to medium. Medium... read more

My review is based on ordering online and picking up in store! I really enjoyed my experience while ordering at Dave's! The website was extremely easy to use and I did Apple Pay and went to pickup about 10 mins later. The parking is always a hit or miss, but thankfully it was a late lunch so there were plenty of spots. When I came in, it was relatively empty and I was greeted. I guess it's been a while since I've visited because they got rid of the shelf pick up orders. Which, makes sense considering that a lot of people co... read more

Boom! Glad you loved it! Thanks for the awesome review!

I ordered Dave's #3 via UberEats and accidentally selected the no sauce option. I felt that something was missing, but didn't realize what until later when I had already left. Regardless, the chicken was solid and pricing was great. The medium wasn't that spicy so I would probably try the hot level next time. 

Business response:

Boom! Glad you loved it! Thanks for the awesome review!

Dave's Hot Chicken easily ranks in my top three hot chicken destinations. The tenderness of the chicken paired with the freshly served fries is hard to beat. Their sauce is truly standout, and it's a treat when locations, like the one in Irvine, offer it in generous amounts. Cool art style throughout the building.

I can see why Dave's is so popular. I thought this was a really good fried chicken sandwich. I got the two slider combo with medium spice level. The sliders were really filling. The chicken tenders that are in that slider are pretty big. The combination of the slaw, bun and the tenders were excellent. I liked that they give you a ton of Dave's sauce, because I put a ton of that on the fries and the sliders. We will definitely be back.
