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

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.

Excellent food, staff and experience. The chicken is flavorful, juicy and tender. All of the staff are welcoming, friendly and accommodating to you requests. We will definitely be back for more Dave's Hot Chicken!!!
The chicken is good but there's only one seasoning or kind available and the sandwiches all have a bunch of cole slaw on them.

We wanted to try "Nashville" hot chicken and went here. The staff was young but accommodating and friendly. I think they are still working the kinks out: sides and shakes were unavailable. My daughter was disappointed as there was no max and cheese. They offered cheese fries, but we didn't get the cheese sauce we requested on the side. My child is picky, and when she saw a tiny corner of white flour on the side of the chicken, she wouldn't eat it. I ordered a medium tender plate, with the kale slaw in the side. I didn't get ... read more

Me and my family went here for lunch today. We ordered three meals which the meals did not come with drinks so we ordered three drinks separately. The bill was around 50 dollars which I do feel is a bit pricey for 3 meals. The food portions were generous. My meal was the chicken strips which came with two large strips, two slices of bread, pickles, and a mayonnaise based sauce with fries. My kids got the two sliders meal. I wouldn't call them sliders though as they were the size of a regular sandwich and two came with th... read more

This was my first time going to Dave's hot chicken. I went for dinner and it was a slow time at the restaurant. The wait took about 20 minutes which I was a little disappointed in since there were only a few customers in the restaurant. I got the #3 with cheese on the slider and the fries. I do not recommend getting the cheese as they barely put any on the fries or the slider. I think they charge 50 cents each time cheese is added to a item. Total waste of a dollar. The chicken and fries were delicious. I understand they ar... read more
