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

I decided to finally give this place a shot since Drake decided he wanted to give everyone a free slider on his bday. I went around 6pm and it was a little busy. The place isn't too big as u would expect a fast food place to be. Not much standing room. There was A lot of artwork on the walls that I wanted to capture but there were so many people constantly moving around so I opted not to. I ordered cheese fries with my slider. I had to show them I was following them on the app. They had signs posted that they were giving awa... read more
I really enjoyed my first visit and look forward to returning. I only sampled the chicken and fries and look forward to trying some other things. But I was very impressed with the hot flavor.
We drove from Fort Wayne, IN. to try Dave's Hot Chicken. My daughter found it on instagram. The strawberry shake was delicious. The Cole slaw was surprisingly good and the chicken was definitely worth the drive. Bring. Dave's Hot Chicken to Fort Wayne!
Well all I can say it's SO GOOD! Honestly the spicy is just perfect and the sandwich was so good. Bread was soft and chicken was juicy and well cooked. The fries were crispy and the Dave's sauce was a perfect partner to them. So glad we got here early as 11:30 hit they got very busy! The bathrooms are also VERY clean and nice. Would recommend this to anyone!
My friend who had recommended brought a group of us to try for a late night dinner. I was eager because I am a fan of HotBoys in the Fountain Square area and didn't think anyone could compete. The service was great and friendly. It was a late night on Sunday after a concert and it was not very busy. It was very overpriced. What I know I can get at my favorite place I got here for 10X more. The overall experience was okay. The flavor was not as good as HotBoys, and their spices are not true to their word. The mess was less... read more
C'mon Dave's, I know good help is hard to find nowadays. Love the food but asked for Mac instead of fries and got neither, and ordered 1 medium and one hot, and both are hot. Also, I have received it correctly in the past but there's no indicator as to which is which - there are stickers but they're on the lid of the container not even placed as to suggest which one is below.
Best friend chicken sandwich in Indy (and trust me we've tried most of them)! Easy to order online or in store. Space for seating inside, limited menu which I always like because that means what you get is going to be fabulous. The chicken is not heavily breaded (thank you!) lots of meat to it and absolutely delicious. You have different temps you can try, we did mild and it was right up our alley. The fries are also fine perfectly too, crinkle fries are always a hit or miss for me and they were a hit! Crispy and nicely se... read more
Pretty good! The textures were on point including the slaw and I really enjoyed thee fries and their seasoning. I also like how you get two sandwiches in one meal. The "hot" had a decently sharp heat to it but besides that I didn't get much flavor in the sandwich, might try medium or the tenders next time. The place is fast paced and always busy and loud, and the artwork on the walls is really cool. I also love that they are halal certified!
I had heard so many things about this place and was excited to try it at the only Indy location. This meal was more than enough for two of us, both of us took 1 home for later (it was also almost $40 for both). The sliders were huge. I really liked the sauce, and I added cheese to mine- perfect went on a Sunday and it wasn't too busy except for doordashers coming and going. the customer service was alright, not terrible but definitely not super friendly either. will def be back, I wish there was another Indy location other ... read more
