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.

First stop here. The food was hot and fresh. The place was kinda messy but it appears that they only had 2 people working there so there was no time for them to clean up. The menu is simple but they get very busy when the other restaurants close. I think they should help out their staff with another person. Kinda felt sorry for them but they kept moving.

Dave's hot chicken: The slaw + pickles is rly good also the spices they add are solid. I sorta like the crispy part of something Gus's chicken a lil more so that's the only thing I didn't love. If you put honey with the spicy chicken it's also a fantastic combo . Def worth a try, but make sure to ask for the honey. The chicken is cooked well with less crunch.

This chicken is probably best in the business for this type! I had the sliders at the hot level and they delivered a nice kick!!

Dave's hot chicken is definitely a must try! Their chicken sliders are my personal favorite but the chicken overall is delicious. Now if you are looking to stretch the dollar this might not be the place considering the price compared to the quantity but it's certainly worth the try.

This spot was recommended so we decided to give them a try on a Tuesday around 8:30. A couple of tables occupied so they weren't busy. Cozy space with a couple of tables outside. They have the option of getting chicken tenders or Sliders. I would say the Slider portion is somewhere between a Slider and regular sandwich. I wasn't very hungry and one was perfect. They have seven spice levels which Is the most I've seen so far. All of us ordered Sliders with mostly mild heat levels. I ordered a Hot level Slider expecti... read more

I really liked the chicken sandwich at Dave's! There is a large range of spicy level for you to choose from, so whether you really hate your butt or lack much testicular fortitude (like me), there is something for you. I also like how their combo options allow you to pick between sliders, tenders or a mix of both if you want a bit of each. In the end, my only slight complaint is that it is super buttery, so at the of the meal, it may feel like its too fatty. But whenever I'm nearby, I'm always down to get another slider meal... read more

Chicken is crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside. Their fries aren't anything special but still good. Overall delicious
