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.

This was the best chicken sandwich I have ever had. I went to try the red velvet waffle and chicken last week and the Redford location is closed? . Well if you live close enough to one of their locations to go...Nashville chicken sandwich is basically perfect..catfish sandwich was also amazing. That red velvet waffle is probably amazing too!!

It basically only has one product, the chicken tenders, but those are really good tenders. I love spicy food a lot so 'hot' and ' extra hot' are the best two flavors for me. Tried ' reaper' once, it was too much for me.

I have to give the Sliders the big salute. This was so delish. I really enjoyed the kale coleslaw on this with the huge pickles. Now the heat levels are totally on you, but this complimented the lite mild flavor. BIG and so flavorful.

We ordered carry out for three and our food was done. Our orders were mislabeled so the spicy and mild chickens were mixed up - a bit of a shocker to the person who ordered the mild chicken! The chicken is generally good (with the breading being excellent) and the spiciness was incendiary. The kale slaw was mild and tasted fine but could have been a bit more flavorful to complement the chicken. I may order here again but am not terribly enthused about it.

Yes, like so many other people, I heard about the hype of Dave's Hot Chicken online, but I was very curious, it looked amazing. Was it worth the hype? Yes! Absolutely! We were blown away with how amazing this simple chicken tasted. I love the simple menu concept, chicken, fries, mac and cheese. The chicken was so juicy and crispy, we did not start with anything too spicy, I wanted to see how the chicken tasted before I upped the spice. It was so good. Next time I will get a spicier piece. I liked the crispy crinkle cut fries... read more

YES, have been looking at going to this place for a few months now. Found myself in Troy for the day and stopped by, THIS IS THE WAY! Super happy I tried this out instead of getting shake shack next door ( shake shack is still GREAT ) however Dave's hot chicken was a masterpiece. There's only a few different combo meals you can get, but that's all you need. Food came out QUICK in about 5 minutes, food was hot and **DELICIOUS!!**. Dave's sauce was great, got mild wasn't spicy at all which was perfect for me, mac & cheese was ... read more

All they sell is a chicken sandwich, or the chicken without the sandwich. And its really good. The menu is very basic and simple, with very few choices. Basically, you have a choice of 3 combos: 2 tenders with fries, 2 sliders with fries, or 1 tender and 1 slider with fries. Plus a choice of a few other sides. But you can order the chicken with 7 different heat levels, from no spice to reaper. (not sure I am brave enough to try the reaper). These chicken sliders are delicious! Like freakishly good. Not sure what they ... read more

I used Uber eats and wow the chicken came amazing. Love the dry rub and got the tender and slider combo with Mac n cheese. It was expensive but cost more too being done with Uber eats. The portions are solid and the tenders for both were huge and juicy. Made great leftovers too. Would totally get again
