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 menu is so simple and perfect! If you are a spice lover, medium may not be enough but easy to get used to their seasoning. Try to order ahead because this place can get busy and there will be a little bit of a line.

Chicken is great, however the music is so loud it's almost unbearable. Maybe they don't want you to stay any longer than it takes to eat. The loud music and then the yelling of order numbers into the intercom, it's jarring when unexpected. Not sure if the other locations are this loud. Won't be back until they turn down the music.

We went here for the first time today for lunch and had a great experience! We tried some other hot chicken places in the area but none really compare to this one. You have three different combo options which all come with huge pieces of chicken and fries. I ordered the mild because of pregnant self can't handle hot right now and it was perfect! Chicken was flavorful, juicy and crisp- the slaw and pickles are a perfect contrast. Fries were perfect. The service was great and everyone that works there is super friendly! We wil... read more

That Hawaiian Brothers review was a total lie this is actually the first and then they were the second I just forgot to review this one. I got the tendie and sandwich combo on mild mode with a coke zero and extra daves sauce. They added honey packets which honestly was so good drizzled over the chicken. Dave's sauce it's just another sauce on the list of sauces better than the overrated canes sauce. I drove here listening back to Billie Eilish's debut album and man what a stark, potent record that is. Front-loaded with adole... read more

Giving this place 4 stars for its quality and freshness. However- this was not what I expected. I think I made the mistake of thinking it was similar to Nashville Hot chicken and I was wrong. The chicken is really good, Cooked very well (and they're not stingy on the portion). The tenders that come inside the slider are huge. Me and my husband split the #2 which has two Sliders and fries. This was more than enough to split between the both of us. If you're craving Nashville Hot chicken, this is not your place. Nashville c... read more

They have big portions for each one. I love their fries!! I can say is the best fries!! We ordered the medium spicy which is good! Kind of lack favors of the chicken tenders. But their fries are super good and full of favors!

Great experience at Dave's! The fried chicken is halal, so you know it's good quality meat. The 2 slider meal is really just 2 chicken sandwiches, so you can split as long as you don't mind sharing fries. Speaking of which, the fries are crinkle cut for maximum crispness. Chicken was also very moist. I got it medium spicy but didn't find it to be spicy at all. They were a little heavy-handed with their dry seasoning which made the chicken a little salty, but overall balanced out well with the kale slaw. Would def come back!

We enjoyed our visit to Dave's Hot Chicken. The employees welcomed us warmly upon arrival and our food arrived very fast. Everything was delicious! Huge portions. The seasoning on the chicken was a bit too much for me at times, but the kale slaw and pickles were delicious and complimented my sandwich well. Definitely a new favorite restaurant to put in our mix!

Big pieces of chicken that were very well seasoned. It was a ton of food. The sliders seems like the size of a small chicken sandwich as opposed to a slider. The kale slaw was very good and necessary part of the "slider". I wasn't a fan of just tender as I rather get the sliders . The fries were typical fries and sauce was fine for the slider.
