About this business

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

I love the "not" chicken almost as much as the chicken. The staff is always sweet and helpful. Cute artwork and tunes for fast food.

Dave's Hot Chicken is absolutely amazing every single time. When I go there, the costumer service is always on point. Their tenders is absolutely delicious - so good! I always have to get 1 extra tender. I always get the medium spice and it's not too spicy it's just the right amount of heat. I can't wait to go back to Dave's soon! Thank you Dave's for making some amazing Hot Chicken!

I was curious about Dave's Hot Chicken after hearing all the hype about it on social media. Decided to go one time with my friends. I think the hype was definitely justified.

I will probably try the Oreo Milkshake i... read more

First timer and definitely a frequenter to be. First Kudos to Carla for her help and guidance. As for food: the chicken is Tender and Moist and on top of that Crispy too! That was mind blowing, flavor is awesome and the sauce Dave's sauce is a perfect Compliment to it. Also for the first time I tried Honey on Fried Chicken so now I have a first time with Dave's ! Really good and clean branch and food is flavorful and staff are cool.
