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 on drakes birthday. The line was long but moving. The staff was helpful and pleasant even though there were a lot of people and they were very busy.

Cool guys. Good food. A bit overpriced. That said They're open late and If you leave a review they'll give you a free milkshake and I think that's pretty cool. 4 stars recommend. *edit they only gave lame shake without yummy M&M toppings I'd say more like 3 .5 stars now*

As someone who generally thinks that fried chicken sandwiches and tenders are all the same with very little difference across the board, I was super impressed with how good Dave's chicken tasted. I got me a combo with a slider (hot) and a tender (reaper). I ate my slider first and thought the chicken was juicy and breading was perfectly seasoned. I was like hmm this is supposed to be hot? reaper must not be that bad. Man, was I wrong.... reaper tender kicked the living s*** out of me, especially because I was on a 24 hour... read more

I was able to give Dave's Hot Chicken a try today for my first time and really enjoyed it. The drive-thru was quick. They gave me a free milkshake to check in on Yelp, which they let encouraged me to do while I waited for my food, which was great. I got the two tender meal, which was plenty of food. They're huge. It came with fries, Dave's sauce, bread, and pickles. The quality and flavor of everything was really stellar. Great chicken, crispy fries. The chicken is flavored by a dry rub. I was expecting buffalo style,... read more

My nephew and his friend loved their meal here. We were on the way to Ontario Mills, and this was the dinner choice. It's nice to see a fast food restaurant serve halal chicken. We were able to accommodate my nephew's friend. The service was good. The restaurant is very colorful, and I like the designs on their napkins.

Walking into this place was so much better than drive thru because of the art and decor! I loved the artwork, especially the nebula ceiling and graffiti. Anyway! The food is good and service is quick and friendly. This was my first time dining in and I loved having my food served hot and fresh out the vat! Ordered a #4 MEDIUM spice and it was awesome. Loved the slaw and extra pickles. I probably could have gone with hot, but medium was flavorful and enjoyable. The fries were perfectly seasoned and cooked to my liking. Pri... read more
