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

Always love going to Dave's hot chicken. The chicken tenders taste really juicy and the spice level is exactly how we want it. Clean restrooms, comfortable seating area and plenty of parking available.
I ordered the slider combo with reg fries and the 10 count "Not chicken" bites. I ate about half my slider and one of the bites. It just wasn't very good. The chicken has a weird spice coating. It's like I stuck a spoon in the chili powder jar and ate it straight up. The slaw on the sandwich had a nice crunch and the pickles were alright. Just not for me I guess.
Don't get me wrong. I am sure this place is wonderful to some BUT the cost is outrageous. Combos don't come with drinks so if you want a combo and drink it's a little less than $20 for one person. I got medium and hot sliders. The medium was okay and over cooked. The hot was not good at all. Service was great and the restaurant was clean. I have been here before and food was good this time it was trash. Go to Popeyes or some other chicken joint there are many more.
First visit. Sounded great, and open late. Till midnight. Who doesn’t love some hot chicken? This is basic, straightforward, well made Nashville style hot, fried chicken. Menu is simple, tenders and sliders. Vary your own heat level. My wife got medium and it was very good. The chicken is fresh, hot, juicy, just the right amount of crunch. Pickles and Dave’s sauce are exceptional. I LOVE spicy food, hotter the better. Usually. I went hard in the paint, ordered the “reaper” heat level. Absolutely the spiciest food I have ever... read more
This was my first time eating here and wow!!! The service was awesome and the chicken was so delicious! Crispy, seasoned just right, juicy and done inside. I believe this is probably the best chicken I've ate in a long time! Try it.
