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.

I love Dave's, but this location is just horrible, the the girls in the front didn't take my order, laughed, and just I had to order from the kiosk, which took around half an hour to arrive, horrible customer service, the food was worse then normal

Service was great.! Food was super greasy... fries were good. Taste like off brand canes. WAY too much seasoning.

My boyfriend and I both ordered the 10 piece Dave's bites to go yesterday; one with fries and the other without. When we got home and opened one of the containers, I noticed it didn't even look like there were 10 pieces in it. I counted and they only gave us 7! I counted the other container as well and same thing, only 7 pieces! The sizing of the bites seemed inconsistent too which idk if that played a factor? Maybe my boyfriend and I should've checked once we got our order, but at the same time, how hard is it to count to ... read more

I don't know what part of the chicken they used but all I had to experience was fatty pieces with every bite. This was my first and absolutely last time to eat here. Tremendously disappointed. The flavor was great, but I ate two pieces and tore apart the remains 8 bites. I did NOT see white meat like the pictures advertising the 10 over bites. The service was great. Very nice staff. Too bad about the food!

The worker at the front desk named Jen has failed her job as a front desk supervisor. It took 10 minutes for a strawberry milkshake that tasted like vanilla. Lucky her I like vanilla anyways. My friends haven't even gotten their food yet and we've been here for 20 minutes. Nour didn't even get her fries! It's called fast food Jen get it right. I love Dave's, this one just disappointed me. I work a 9-3 just for this? My friends and coworkers do NOT deserve this. Guess what guys? Nour JUST got her fries an ive been writing th... read more
