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

Finally tried Dave's Hot Chicken and it was a highly satisfactory experience. The mini chicken sliders paired with fries were a great combination. The bread was soft, the chicken was perfectly seasoned and juicy, and the fries were cooked to a precise crisp while being nicely seasoned. Moreover, the Dave's sauce made a strong impression, possibly even outdoing Raising Cane's sauce. Regrettably, my selection of the lite mild flavor led to an absence of the spice I wanted. On my next visit, I will level up to mild or medi... read more
I'm not big on dry rub chicken. Food was good. I don't have a taste for dry rub chicken. But that's me. Heh

We've driven past Dave's Hot Chicken dozens of times while traveling north on I-35 through Waco and last time we made a planned stop on a little casino road trip. The exterior is eye-catching with some unique artwork and murals. It definitely stands out in a city like Waco. I wasn't there to enjoy the artwork, however. I was on a mission to try the Reaper tender. My wife and I chose to eat inside. It's not a very large restaurant so it was crowded and rather loud. At least it was somewhat clean in the dining area. We orde... read more

One of the best Hot Chicken places around! This is refreshing to have such a master blend of spices to bring some life back to your tastebuds. Service was excellent, the line to the door was handled promptly. The style and atmosphere was really cool and the cool designs done were sick!

People like you are what keep us going. We appreciate the love and support. Hope to have you back soon!
My Muslim friends rave about how Dave's is halal, and I think this is so great as it is rare for a fast food chain to be halal in the US. I read another review that said the logo is "incredibly ugly," and I am offended on Dave's behalf. I think the logo is so funny and cute. My friend from Waco brought me here, and I kept commenting that I loved the logo. I got the #4 combo, which includes one slider with fries for a total of $11. Their special Dave's sauce was really good. I thoroughly enjoyed the slider with chicken and ... read more
First time, went with a "hot" heat level sauce on a sandwich, fries and a Coke Zero. Damn those fries were good. Sandwich was good too, but I messed up and only asked no pickles and I didn't realize they put coleslaw on them too, even after scraping coleslaw off it was still pretty damn good. Most places around central Texas when they say Hot they mean Taco Bell hot not actual hot, this hot has some kick to it thankfully. I will come back again!
Business response:
Glad you enjoyed the heat and those fries! The coleslaw is definitely a signature touch, but next time, we’ll make sure your order is just the way you like it. Looking forward to seeing you again!
Heard about the story of Dave's on the Podcast " How I Built This" and we happened to be driving down in TX. It was fun to see and know the background. The chicken is REALLY TASTY!
