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.

I've been to many hot chicken spots but nothing compares to Dave's! The chicken is always hot,juicy, and tender. Spices are packed with flavor and have different heat levels for your liking. Forgot to mention the Dave's sauce and crispy fries which are a great compliment to the chicken !
