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.

Yummy chicken. The sliders were more like 2 regular size chicken sandwiches imo. GIGANTIC. I love that the bread had a hint of sweetness and was very soft. As chicken tenders the flavor of the extra hot was really good. A little less breading and it would Hv been 5* all the way but I would give it a solid 4.5 for sure lol

We came to Dave's hot chicken after visiting clutch city cluckers. So when we ordered the spiciest level at Dave's, we were expecting it to be similar or hotter, especially because they request that you sign a waiver. Not sure if it was the time that we went (Sat night around 10pm) but they didn't have one of the items I had originally ordered (they did issue a refund) but I was a little underwhelmed. It's not bad at all and I am open to giving it another chance. Probably earlier in the day and probably not on the weekend.... read more

Food is great! Service, well, that was an interesting experience. Went in on a Saturday night, my party ordered our food and after taking our order, the cashier ran outside and was gone for about 20 minutes. We could see orders coming out of the kitchen so the guys went in to ask if it was ours. A very confused worker came out from the back and started processing the food for the orders. We finally got ours and it was very tasty. Chicken well seasoned and crunchy, slaw great and those pickles though- yum! The fries were grea... read more

The chicken is really tender and good! They're portions are very generous for the price, and the variety of sauces was great.

Honestly the food is pretty good. Mac was decent. Sliders are better. Fries are mid.

Solid 3.5/4 out of 5 for me. Another hot chicken joint (chain) that opened near Midtown. Their menu is a bit interesting in that their sandwiches are just tenders in a bun vs a filet style. The chicken is cooked well but I found their seasoning and taste a bit on the bland side. There's also limited side options so I much prefer Cookshack as a superior nearby option.

Dave's hot chicken is so yummy. Very casual spot for hot chicken, but it is so good! Spicy if you like that. I don't, so I get the mild, but still great. Their cheese fries are really yummy and filling and the Cajun seasoning is great. Prices are fair. 10/10 recommend.
