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

Ordered online at 11pm on a Friday night. Place was busy. Said it would be ready in 10 minutes and it was. Good food! Fries were still hot. I got one mild sandwich and the one of the hotter ones. That hot one lit me up!! Can't wait to go back.

The food was good. It's was to expect when going to a chicken joint. The favor are good only go hot if you can handle hot. The service was great. I would go back for the service. They were very helpful. I like the ambiance.

My youngest picked this spot for dinner and surprisingly it did not disappoint! I'll be honest I was very leery to come, but we had agreed to let her pick the place for dinner and she wanted her "favorite". We came in and was greeted immediately although whoever was working the front was swamped. I will say she was extremely patient and answered all our questions and guided us on the sauce levels for our sandwiches. I went with extra hot and hot because she said the hot was pretty hot. Well needless to say I was surprised t... read more

The chicken. The sauce. The spice. It's just so good. If you want quality fried chicken this is the place. I absolutely love the sliders and always get the spice level "Hot". But I tried the Dave Bites today with their Mac & Cheese and let's just say I'm a HUGE fan. The Mac & cheese is so creamy and not too cheesy, while the Dave bites are small little spicy crispy nuggets with the perfect crunch! You must get the sauce, it makes the whole meal!!

Great food, cool atmosphere, a fantastic service. The chicken sliders dipped in their famous sauce was fantastic! It was on the pricey side but my son and I shared and got full off of the 1 meal. The pop machine was down, which was a bummer!!

I have to say that the woman running the cash register/taking orders was a saint. I arrived with 10 students for a last day of school celebration. She was kind and courteous to each child and was never annoyed with dealing with taking cash/change instead of cards. This alone will make me come back! The chicken sandwich was just spicy enough without being overpowering and the sauce was very flavorful.

I feel like pictures tell you everything you need to know. But just in case it doesn't. Dave's is honestly elite and dare I say the best chicken restaurant. The seasoning is so good, and the varying spice levels makes it so customizable. The menu is simple and the chicken is GOOD. not too heavily breaded, with the perfect sides. I don't usually care about fries all that much, but theirs are seasoned so well and the meal comes with a stack of pickles! What could be better honestly.
