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

Solid chicken sandwich a bit outside of Boston in Newton! One mix up people may have is to mistake a slider for a small chicken sandwich but it is a decent size for 1 person! We got their slider, some fries, and a strawberry milkshake. To my surprise, since I am not a huge sandwich fan, I was pleasantly surprised by how filling and yummy everything was! And the strawberry milkshake had a pretty good consistency and taste too. The only thing was that the chicken sandwich tasted more spicy rather than flavorful the higher the... read more

Tried Dave's for the first time recently (ordered delivery) and was shocked by how SALTY everything was. So salty both my boyfriend and I couldn't finish it. I don't know if this was maybe a fluke, but because of how overwhelmingly salty everything was, I don't know that I'd eat here again. 3 stars because the sauce was delicious and the fries and chicken were good, but the seasoning was way too much. We also got medium spice and didn't feel it was spicy at all.

If you are looking for some southern fried chicken, dave's is the perfect spot! Chicken is always juicy and pairs well with the cajun seasoned fries.. oh and don't forget to ask for honey packets to drizzle on the chicken! Staff was friendly and the interior has some cool art on the wall. I have been there twice and definitely plan to visit more often!
