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. THE JOURNEY After 6 months of running the pop-up with long lines, the team took the plunge and opene... read more

Went to the drive thru thinking it would be faster but waited almost an hour just to get our food. After we got it they gave us the wrong order.

Screw this place. 30 minutes on the drive thru to wait for your order. Store is a joke. Workers don't have a care in the world when you pull up to the window they smile as if nothing is wrong. There were 3 cars honking in the drive thru.

Horrendous horrifying experience at this location. 3 thick black hairs placed right on top of our food. The staff was extremely rude, barely apologized for this experience, and could barely process our refund once we asked. We had paid in cash and the cashier didn't even give us the cash until we asked. Ridiculous. Disgusting

It was our family's 1st time coming here and we waited an hour in the drive thru ! We thought wow this place must be really good. But to our surprise it was not worth the wasted time or money . Tasted like chicken tenders dipped in chorizo . And it was really grainy texture like the spices were laid on top and fried .. I don't recommend Dave's Hot Chicken.

**THE WORST PLACE TO EAT** DO NOT GO TO THIS PLACE! THIS IS WHY, I went for lunch at 1:45pm on Friday, May 16, 2025, and it took forever to get my order, and the chicken WAS BURNED!!! EVERYTHING TASTES AWFUL AND IS BURNED OUTSIDE AND UNDERCOOKED ON THE INSIDE!! I cannot believe how they sell this type of chicken to customers! Checking was undercooked, as shown in the image, and people could become SICK: Eating undercooked chicken can cause food poisoning, resulting in symptoms such as diarrhea, vomiting, stomach cramps, and ... read more

Quite upset to have to update this with a slightly lower rating considering our dine in experience was fantastic! Decided to try an order online this time around and the food was prepared quickly and pick up was efficient as well! The major issue is simply the sauce is quite insufficient, I don't like to exaggerate but I feel as though this portion alone is an exaggeration. The service is always quick and efficient, but the portions need to be adjusted. We ordered two #1 combos this comes with TWO tenders TWO slices of bread... read more
