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

Got the number one, two tenders (I chose hot heat) and fries. Came with two pickle slices, some excellent dipping sauce and two slices of bread. Very tasty, served very hot, which I lived. Fries were crunchy and maybe sort of Cajun style, excellent. Tenders had a perfect breading, and were huge: got to-go boxes and a second meal out of one order. The cost initially made me balk when ordering, but not when I got the food. Big servings. Big open dining with wood tables. Fast food style layout, plastic serving basket... read more
Amazing food!!! They were so nice to us and definitely coming back to this location too bad I live very far but when I'm near definitely coming for some Dave's hot chicken Charles thanks for the food!!!
Great food and reminded us of home back in California with the vibe and decor inside along with great service
Have been hoping a Nashville Style Hot Chicken place would pop up near me and i was pleasantly surprised to come across this place today. A bit on the $$$ Pricy side i will admit. The Sliders were excellent & fries were great. They cook to order here so there will be a wait on the meal, but it sure is worth it... I ordered mine HOT as there is a heat level option and mine was hot. 2 more level up's on heat but i like to taste my food... lol Will certainly be back !!!
I never review food, mostly out of laziness and by the time I'm digesting I'm in a food coma. But HOLY CRAP, I am in heaven and I'm only ordering this slider and chicken tender combo for the next 1000 years. Their Mac and cheese had me making sounds that I'm sure were only acceptable in the safety of my own home. Their logo is just foreshadowing for the face you'll make after your first bite.
I thought the chicken was so delicious! You can pick your level of hot so you can't complain about it being too spicy . It was a little pricey for fast food, but the chicken is huge and so worth it! The 2 slider meal is enough for two! The fries were hot, crispy, and so good. This place will be one of my favorites on that side of town.
Stop here on a whim and glad we did. Very limited menu which can be good and bad but we didn't mind. The chicken sliders were a nice size. 1 slide was the size of a typical chicken sandwich. I got the medium sauce which was equivalent to hot but it was still tasty. Service was great and food came out fast.
First time trying Dave's. $16 for the meal was a little too much. It is good but overpriced for sure. It would definitely be a good meal for 2. It feels like every new trendy place can charge alot just because it is cool. It is fresh but I just don't think it would be a place to visit often. It would be alot better if for the price on the menu included the drink, but that is an extra 2-3 bucks. You can go to a restaurant and have a decent lunch for the same price.
