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

tread lightly yall! ok.. we went here on valentine's day and caught attitude from the employee, which was awkward. ordered the medium chicken and must have been given the extra hot or the reaper. talk about valentine's day sabotage. my partner and I are avid spice lovers and can take quite a bit of heat but YO, this sandwich burned my mouth and my insides like nothing ever has. i'll admit, i ate it along with the bomb ass fries because i was soo hungry and didn't want to wait. we are messed up today and our stomachs hu... read more

Listen here...I grew up in the South and lived in Nashville for 12 years and in New Orleans for 2 years before moving to Eugene. I've had the privilege of eating some amazing meals. Dave's is the way hot chicken is SUPPOSED TO TASTE. I've lamented that everyone who got up here must've dropped the spice rack somewhere on the Oregon trail. Thankfully these folks did not. They also know how to fry some chicken. Dave's might have started in Hollywood but I taste inspiration from Prince's Hot in East Nashville. Had the medium sli... read more

Solid 5 stars! The employees were so sweet and helpful. Gabe took our order and another young person with long hair and a mustache gave suggestions too. I got 2 medium spice sliders. The sliders are huge! The chicken was really crispy and moist. A previous poster said it is too spicy - not true at all. Sounds like that person doesn't normally put salt on food, so not sure what they expected from a restaurant. Keep those salt levels where they're at - it's perfect! Another employee suggested I try honey on the chicken. Glad... read more

I was introduced to Dave's Hot Chicken for the first time and my fried chicken life will never be the same. Crispy breaded chicken must be one of my all-time favorite foods, and I think I found a new front-runner. The chicken strips are huge, juicy, crispy, and full of flavor. You can requests different levels of heat (spiciness). If heartburn wasn't a side-effect, I'd go more regularly. But don't let that stop you! It's a most wonderful self-indulgent fried chicken fest you'll ever have.
