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.

Today I was debating between getting a slider or a tender. Taking the kale salad into consideration, getting the slider was a no brained. The bun adds carbs I didn't care for but it also tastes too good. Thank you. 

Business response:

Go Mel and Mo!!! Glad they could make your experience great! Thanks!

I come here way more often than I should! (Almost every friday) And i'm always pleased to be greeted with a warm welcome from Paul! He's always very attentive and makes great recommendations whenever there's first timers in line. This location is always clean! And i have to say this new top loaded milkshake is a must try!

Great service and quality! One of the first Dave's in OC, and has continued to grow in its quality over the years.

The food here is always soooo good. Their Dave's Sauce keeps you coming back and they've managed to make their super spicy flavor actually taste good too. Mo (I think was her name) was awesome! Really great customer service from her, she was warm and friendly. There was a small issue with the order that she rectified immediately without my even asking. Make sure you download the app! The rewards definitely add up!
