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

This was my first time at Dave's Hot Chicken and I came for the collab with Drake (free tender or slider if you follow on TikTok or IG!) Pretty excited to try this out, will come back to add photos when I get my food. --UPDATE-- I am really impressed!! I didn't know what the hype was all about but now I know!! The chicken slider was MASSIVE!! I feel like other restaurants give you dinky child-sized portions when offering a "slider" option but Dave's Hot Chicken was definitely hefty. Personally my portion sizes are usually sm... read more

Chicken was good. Nice seasoning, sauce and fries. I ordered the two piece chicken medium. I probably should have ordered the next level up because I like a little spice. I ate the pickles, bread, secret sauce, honey and ketchup with my meal. The seasoning was a bit salty for me so I took off one start for that. The interior has great color. Parking is fine in the parking structure. Good hours and fast service. The staff are thorough and attentive. Price is good too. Chicken, friends, and sauces to choose from. Chicken ... read more

Opens late and seems to be a place where people hang out. There is a dining area both inside and outside the restaurant. The atmosphere was lovely and fun. Don't worry about the line - it moves really fast! We did not wait long for our food. The menu was simple yet yummy - tenders and sliders. You pick you choice of spice. We settled for mild and medium. I think we could of went up a level. The tenders were juicy. Each pieces were big and thick!
