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.

Honestly this place was just okay. The cashier seemed to have a bad attitude nothing awful she just seemed tired. My food was ready and she waited a while to hand it to me but it was still hot. Overall everything was just average. The food didn't taste seasoned at all.

Popped in because I needed to be a grown up and eat dinner before getting cookies across the street. It was a quick visit which was great for my first time there. The restaurant is on the smallish side with about 10 tables crammed onto one side. The tables were pretty tight and I witnessed people trying to squeeze between them to pick up their food from the counter. The menu is short and easy to navigate. The food came out within ten minutes and it was fresh and hot. While I finished all of my food, the flavor of the chicken... read more

This hot chicken place is amazing. The chicken was cooked perfectly: no dry parts, all moist. The spiciness is addicting. I got the 2 tenders with fries combo. The fries didn't need sauce at all; they almost remind me of Rally's fries. You're able to change the level of spiciness of the chicken. I chose very hot (one level down from the max), and it makes me want to try the max spiciness level. Although it was very spicy, it never crossed the point where it was so spicy I couldn't eat the chicken. Maybe they could use more ... read more

I've seen so many great reviews about this place and finally got the chance to try them out while on vacation in Houston this past weekend. I loved every bit of it! The freshness of the made to order food to the pickles. I loved it so much I had to go back the next day. To say the menu is pretty basic it reminds me of canes if they had spicy chicken options and I love canes. Now since I'm back home I've been craving Dave's! I'd go back for sure for the food and the cool aesthetics they have going on. Try 'em out 

Business response:

YAY!!! First timer! We are so happy that you loved us and we hope to see you back again soon!

Sliders were okay, not the greatest. Fries were well seasoned but wasn't as fresh and seemed a bit soggy. Ordered hot thinking it would have some spice, but it didn't have any. Food didn't take too long considering it was right after a football game.

We came here after having a bad experience at Gus's Fried Chicken (food was over cooked and borderline inedible, plus our server was extremely rude). But Dave's: the food is quick, fresh and DELISH--and the employees are so nice. It's a clean, easy and straightforward experience every time. I love the sliders--when I'm not too hungry, one of those & some fries hit the spot. If you're hungrier, get the 2 slider combo or the slider + 1 tender combo. Highly recommend!
