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.

Good food, fast service, great value for your $$. Simple menu and the chicken tenders are tasty and fries are crispy and not soggy.

Ok, so I am from San Diego and know of Daves. Never tried it because the lines are always crazy. Came to Palm Desert for the weekend and they have one here. Not as busy so I tried it. Ashley was so awesome, and had great recommendations. I got the #2 2 slider combo. Dang, so so so good. The daves sauce is nuts, and the fries also spot on. It is more like a 2 sandwich combo than sliders, so 1 was to go. Man, oh man, now I get all the hype. Will definitely be coming back.

Dave's hot chicken in short is utterly delicious. If you do not like spicy food too much but still want something which packs a whole lot of flavor their mild spice level slider is the way to go. The service was good nothing through the roof but it was still quite good. The restaurant was very clean and just felt quite nice. The location is also nice.
