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.

We had been going to Popeyes on Burleigh for chicken for the longest time, but there was always ALWAYS always something missing from the order or a wait time of 15+ minutes. So glad there is a better option in Dave's. Fries were seasoned to perfection, sliders were spicy with that thin but dense layer of crunch, and they have outdoor seating. It was just a really refreshing experience with so much more value than any other chicken sandwich spot around.

Sooo glad to have a halal option in milwaukee area. It's an absolutely must dine-in kind of food - fried chicken - will not taste as good in a takeout. I love how I can get the chicken according to my mood. My all time will be a medium spice level, but for when I do want spicy, hot is perfecttt.

Been here twice already and have not been disappointed. The Menomonee Falls location is far from I live, but is one of the only places to get authentic hot chicken. Recently came near close and forgot to get slaw and pickles with my order, but the employees were happy to give me a side of both.

Great quality chicken, doesn't taste fake and has great seasoning to it! Not 5 stars because they have limited options and a little high on price, but when I can I eat Dave's Hot Chicken!

We've tried 3 times (2 of us, 4 of us a nd a large to go for family of 6) and each experience was great. Food is served hot (temperature) which tells me it's made fresh. You choose your spice level or try two different levels in a meal. Staff is nice, restaurant is clean food is great. All you could ask for in a restaurant.

Three for the quality of the chicken. Large portion and very juicy/tender. But the heat gets in the way. It's hot just for the sake of hot and brings no flavor with it. Their heat scale is pretty accurate so choose according to your tolerance level. French fries are average, nothing special.

This is a barely 3, we have been at least 5 times prior to coming yesterday, first time several weeks after opening which still had long line out the door. That time we were pretty impressed we had the #1 option medium and hot levels, both just right. So after that all the times we came the only complaints would be twice we would get 1 good size tender and one rather small, one time one order had 2 rather small tenders and another person with us had 2 rather large ones so on same ticket you'd think they'd adjust that. And on... read more
