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 JOURNEY After 6 months of running the pop-up with long lines, the team took the plunge and opene... read more

Fantastic service! Placed the order online and was ready by the time we arrived to pick it up. The sliders were pretty huge and we loved the slight kick of the fried chicken. Love the Dave's sauce too!

Our favorite Nashville style Halal chicken . We come here often to get our fast food craving fixed. The prices are on a higher side for a fast food. The customer service is good and the place is spacious. They have a drive through as well . They recently introduced chicken bites which are perfect for young kiddos. They have halal certification on display as well.

Mohammed was absolutely so nice, super helpful and got us forks and stuff for our meal. The #2 combo is the best! Thing is, I think I messed up the survey, so I just wanted to say his service is actually a 5 star, if I messed up my survey I'm sorry! I was chatting with my friend and must have touched my phone because I could only input my phone number after.

One of my favorite thing about Dave's is their slider buns, soft, chewy, and always warm. Another favorite thing is how their chicken is always juicy and tender, easily tearing apart. My last and final compliment is their sauce, which compliments both the fries and chicken so well. My friend's chicken tender had way too much breading and seasoning on it so she asked if they could substitute it with another single tender to which they sincerely apologized, offering to remake the entire thing for her. The overall restaurant ... read more

My wife and I went to this location for the first time last night. We just moved from Texas to Irvine and got hooked on Dave's in Texas. Not only was the food fresh and delicious, Arda recommended me the oreo smoothie with strawberry and it may be my go too going forward.

This is my first time trying their fried chicken. I usually don't eat any spicy so I ordered medium just to test how spicy it was. I don't know why I didn't feel spicy at all as someone who barely eat any spicy food. So next time I might try higher spicy level. The seasoning is different from other fried chicken places I've been to, giving a hint of sweetness. I already enjoyed their chicken sandwich. The fries are so good as well. Very friendly staff member and the store was clean.

This was my first time trying this place. I heard of it online since they were giving out free sliders for Drake's birthday. I guess a lot of people heard as well because the both the in person line and the drive thru was long. Although I did go during lunch hours and most looked like high school students haha. It took a total of about 45 min in the drive thru line for me to get my slider. I didn't go inside so I can't comment on the state of the place but I can say that the person who took my order was surprisingly nice c... read more
