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

Visited again last week, place was not like the last, trash was not overflowing and tables were clean. We enjoyed this visit much more than last time.

This is a mixed review because overall flavor and juiciness of the chicken is on point but I'm questioning the "hot" in dave's hot chicken! I can definitely handle a good amount of spice so the first time I went I got a medium and a hot. I did my research and was expecting my mouth to be on fire with hot. But my experience was very much not. Flavor was good but minimal heat! I thought maybe I need to up it. So I decided to try again.. came back today for the extra hot and I swear this "extra hot" was more mild than the mediu... read more

Love the chicken. Little trick I found was if you just want the chicken without the fries and coleslaw, you can order them individually (it's small print on the menu that's basically hidden) and it's cheaper. One of the staff members introduced me to putting their honey on the chicken, sooo good!

Dave's Hot Chicken was as it said on the menu, pretty dang hot but also very tangy and nice. Maybe it's cause I ordered Mild but the two sliders and cheese fries were great and the pickles were a nice touch to an already awesome meal. Service was great and it was kinda loud but hey, it's common with most fast food joints round here and it wasn't so loud I can blow my ears off nor was it as quiet as a mouse. Overall Dave, your chicken was freaking hot, smooth, cheesy, and creamy 10/10 would go again.
Let me preface by saying that I'm someone who thinks Buffalo chicken wings are hot. I ordered the medium spice (the middle option out of their scale of 7 possible heat levels ranging from No Spice to Reaper) and it was HOT. So much so that my mouth was on fire and couldn't exactly enjoy the rest of my meal because I was too focused on getting the heat out of my mouth. That being said, if you're someone who loves a chicken sandwich/tender with HEAT, Dave's Hot Chicken will certainly be your place. They do not play games with ... read more

Place is awesome food is always good here. Little expensive but worth it. Drinks don't come with meals
Food was very good a little pricey though. Service was very nice and it was a good atmosphere
Dave's Hot Chicken is to die for. I was so excited to see they opened in Newton and couldn't wait to try it. I hardly ever eat food like this so I went when I was having a bad day to treat myself, and It was so worth it. I got a single hot tender which was pretty big and filling. It was served on a piece of toast with a side of sauce and pickles. The crunch and flavor was perfect and it totally hit the spot. You have to try it!

Looks delicious! Thank you for the photo and the awesome review!
Dave's Hot Chicken is Newton is a solid 12/10. First off, the chicken sandwiches are out of this world. The slider bread, kale slaw, and pickles in addition to the chicken make this the perfect sandwich! The spice levels are perfect for anyone-from those who don't want any spice all the way to the more daring spice fanatics. Honestly, skip any other eatery like Chick-Fil-A, Wendy's, etc. Dave's gives you QUALITY chicken and ingredients so you don't feel disgusting after you eat it. And for the prices they offer the food, i... read more
