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.

Wanted to see what all the hype was about, it's not that great in my opinion. I prefer the Chic fil a spicy chicken sandwich. I got my hopes up for this place but it kinda disappointed me. I thought they would have their own "special sauce" but all it was, was thousand island and it tastes store bought. I will stick to chic fil a and raising canes.
I've given this place a few tries, and have been let down every time. The chicken comes out dry! There is almost no sauce on the sandwich, and the fries were not crispy. Maybe I need to try another location or I caught them on a series of bad days, but it will be a good while before I give them another shot.
I was going to order on the website for: Dave's #2 (13.99), Mac & Cheese (3.49), and 2 sauces (0.50). However, the SUBTOTAL said $28.22 even though all together it should've been $17.98? So I called this location asking if they knew if there was a pick up fee or something causing this. I absolutely know this isn't within the store's or employees control, I was literally just wondering if they knew what it was causing this. I also asked if the price would be the same if I ordered in store, which can be done if you just rin... read more
Came here for the first time tonight because my youngest son saw some YouTuber's video about this place (or something to that effect) and I'm extremely disappointed. Won't be coming back again. It was $45 and change for 2 slider/tender meals, a single tender, Mac and cheese, and 4 drinks (my dad was disgusted at the prices and only got a drink). I could go to Raising Cane's and pay barely $32 for the 4 of us WITH DRINKS INCLUDED!! Not to mention, it took nearly 30 minutes to even get to the register to order since the group... read more
Wow was hoping this place would be good but when I got my food delivered there was mold on the bread. Had to toss the entire meal and now order from another place . Waste of my time, my money and the kicker is you can't call them. I tried to call and it says to go online and they might get back to you. I just wanted to let them know they are serving moldy bread and may want to stop. I don't think they care and I guarantee you this place won't be around in a year. What a joke Took my time my dime drove back and they had to m... read more
Came here for dinner last night and now I've been in and out of the bathroom and throwing up all day. Do not come here because something they do in the kitchen will get you sick. I can't keep any piece of food down or water either. Safe to say I'm not coming here ever again.
Finally came to try this location out after a great food experience in LA at the beginning of the pandemic!! Drove by this location so many times hoping it would hit the stop and be a gold mine next to home, unfortunately only a tier above Clyde's hot chicken off harbor, but did not meeet the greatness that was LA's Dave's hot chicken. Gf was also unimpressed, servers were nice and attentive but the food was a bit of a dissapointment along with the microwaved mac and cheese. Fries were bland, chicken hot flavored was pretty ... read more
Anywhere I eat, I order my food about 20-30 min before I pick up so that it is ready by the time I get there. The last two times I had to wait an additional 10 min upon arrival. I understand it can get busy at times. But as busy as chick fil a and chipotle get, they manage to have it ready on time. Maybe this location is understaffed. Foods great and the orders are done properly, that's why I'm not giving one star
Came here yesterday and the food was horrible. I'm assuming it's just this location, because I've been to multiple locations in OC/LA, and never had an issue. But yesterday the chicken they gave me was so bad!!! Will not be returning to this restaurant, and will take a break from Dave's because of this horrible experience. Ohh and the restaurant is extremely dirty, I get it's busy, but at least clean the tables once people are done eating.
