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

I went for Drakes birthday and got free spicy chicken sandwiches and Mac n cheese! The lines are usually pretty long, but the wait was worth it:) they had the level of spice and the Mac n cheese was creamy.

Fast, delicious, and convenient. What could be better? I was so excited to try Dave's Hot Chicken after seeing them pop up all over. When I arrived, the line was very long, nearly to the street. We almost left because we thought we would be there forever. But we decided to get in line and ask the people around us why it was so busy and turns out we went on Drake's birthday, so we got a free slider! We were shocked how fast we got through the line! The employees worked so hard and efficiently. I enjoyed my slider and also ord... read more

Been hearing about this place for a while and finally came around trying it.. Well, color me impressed! I am not big on spice, so got mine light mild. Very tasty and flavorful. The chicken is perfectly crispy, and not dry. Quite a bit of chicken in each slider too! I could only eat one, so the other one will be lunch tomorrow. The sauce was delicious, the fries excellent and the pickle slices added a nice crunch and flavor ! Very solid meal. This is easily a 9/10 for me!

HOW HOT ARE YOU? "Reaper" hot? Or "No Spice?!" Well at Dave's, you are able to choose from SEVEN different levels of heat for your delicious chicken! Dave's is taking over Illinois (and the world - literally) one flavorful bite at a time! I got invited to check out their menu and let me just give props to the chicken! Their chicken is brined in pickle juice, so you can imagine the flavor that the chicken has. Their shakes are good! Get a half and half with a couple of different flavors or crap an Oreo or M&M shake; they're... read more

I had been wanting to try Dave's, and the chicken sandwich combo did not disappoint. Just enough spice to enhance the flavor, and the fries were delish. My only complaint was I could not finish every bite. Can't wait to go back!
