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

Decided to check out this location after trying Dave's in Denver. We were on our way home from Dallas and decided to use the drive-thru. Home was about 45 minutes away, so I asked that all condiments be placed on the side so the food would not get soggy. Everything was done as requested, and the person who took our order was patient and extremely helpful. When I asked for sauce, he gave me a recommendation to mix the Dave's sauce with honey, and it was a hit. Big props to him for being a great person to order from. The chick... read more
Walked in, and it has a very clean and spacious atmosphere. I order the sliders and strips, very hot, and I’m not disappointed. Food looks, smells and tastes great. The Cole slaw and pickles help to soften the heat, but great nonetheless. I also ordered the Mac n cheese. It’s tasty but wouldn’t be disappointed to miss it next time. I did try the Dave’s sauce and honey on the strips, and while it’s a great addition, don’t be fooled. Dave’s Hot chicken can stand on its own. I’m happy to see the honey as all honey, (not a ... read more
Saw a billboard outside of Waco, checked out the menu and placed an online pickup order. We shared the two slider meal and I added some kale slaw. Chicken was tender and juicy. I ordered the lightly mild and the hubs mild. We will up it the next two levels on a future trip. I would have liked a bit more kale with the slaw but it was crisp and fresh and tasty. Pickles were great. My husband had the fries and his sandwich with just ckn and sauce. He really enjoyed them. Definitely will go back to try more spice, tenders and t... read more
Went to Dave’s hot chicken in Waco 8/3/2024. It’s about 45 minutes from my house in Temple. I order two #2. One order extra hot and the other is reaper. On both orders I order no slaw, no pickles, no slop sauce (Apparently no pickles means no pickles on the slider per the receipt, crazy I meant NO pickles at all). The extra hot order I ate at the store, and it was fine. Later on when I get home, I am ready to try the reaper sandwiches, open the box, pickles on the fries, slop sauce on the sandwich. Mistakes happen, but I’ve ... read more
Overall our experience here was good. The food was delicious 🤤 customer service could’ve been a little more friendly/welcoming. And it was way too quiet in there. Y’all need some music 🎶
