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

Do you need something hot and good come here. The chicken is tender and hot ! The fries are really good to. So glad they gave honey to go with the chicken thanks !
Yoooo, BASIL IS THE ONE BRO. They made me feel like daves was my house. The hospitality of her and kindness is amazing. Thank you basil.
Very tasty chicken. I got the 1 tender 1 slider combo which came with a good portion of fries. I really liked that you can choose different heat levels for each item. I went with a hot tender and extra hot slider. The only reason it's not 5 stars is that neither were particularly hot, and there wasn't any discernable difference between hot and extra hot. Next time I guess I'll have to try Reaper lol.
Came here on 9/17/22 and split 2 tenders and a small milkshake with 1 other person. The total was $17.10 after tax. We came not hungry so we went with the tenders this time, but the sliders are objectively the better choice - they have slaw and the sauce instead of just white bread for just a dollar more. Not a minus against the restaurant itself (it is what it is), but parking in this plaza is awful when it's busy - easiest to find a spot between Boston Ski+Tennis and Sierra Trading Post, but leaving is bad no matter where... read more
Hot chicken comes to New England!!! I got the medium level spice and it still had quite the kick. I love spicy but this was even too much for me. NOT that it's a bad thing! The chicken was so juicy and full of flavor, the Mac and cheese was mad just right! My husband got the Hot and it almost had me in tears LOL again not a bad thing, I love spicy. If you want to try hot chicken or love some good ol' spicy food, come check this place out!!
Dave's Hot Chicken... my question dear Dave, Arman, Tommy, and Gary, is... was it your intention to fill my $3.49 8 ounce paper bowl only about halfway with your decently tasting, sufficiently creamy, side order of mac & cheese? Cause, if it was, you've succeeded. However, according to the one in the blue box, 1 cup prepared = 350 calories. Your menu board states that your side rings up at 290 calories. So the bowl ought to have been over 80% full at that rate to rack up that calorie count. But taking math out of the eq... read more

Exactly what I needed, and what this neighborhood needs. No frills: fried, Nashville style hot chicken. No, I won't be coming here every week and it won't be part of my diet staple, but guess what: if it comes down to driving a couple miles or going to Nashville, thank you Dave! My order was prepared promptly and ready for me when I dropped by. The chicken was prepared well and juicy. The sauce is similar to what you'd find at Raising Cane's. Creamy, caloric, unhealthy tangy mayo. I subbed out fries for cole slaw to be he... read more
Dave's Hot Chicken where do I start. I traveled all the way from New York to Massachusetts to try the famous Dave's Hot Chicken. There is one that recently opened up here in New York City but it is impossible for me to get in because the lines are always wrapped around the block. I got the Dave's combo number 2 and 2 tenders on the side both lite mild with fries. I must say it was very good. Generous portion sizes. The fries to me were very fresh and seasoned. Also the staff was great and the restaurant was very clean. I lo... read more

Totally worth the drive to come here. The chicken sliders had to of been the best chicken sandwich I've ever had. I ordered the very hot and reaper chicken sliders. They were delicious and had their own unique taste. My tolerance for spicy food is higher than average. So it surprised me when the reaper chicken actually had a decent spice to it. I wouldn't recommend it for everyone though. The fries are crunchy and taste great. The macaroni was thick and cheesy. Ended up spending $22 in total. The place also has some nice wal... read more
