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 chicken and fries were good but the bread was really bad. The service was good and I like that they have a baby changing table available. Not all establishment has one.

Hella good! Love the way everything was cooked. The chicken was crispy and tasty. The bun was soft but not soggy. The slaw and the pickles were a perfect compliment. So so good. For sure will order from there again.

The service was quick and everyone friendly. I went through the drive thru and ordered two single tenders and a slider however when I got home I noticed they forgot the slider and instead included an extra tender. I brought the receipt back to the restaurant and they quickly fixed the problem and even compensated with letting me keep the mistaken food. I really appreciate that level of customer service and that corrective action is what kept my rating at a 5 star

Definitely was excited for some Daves Hot Chicken! I ordered the #3 in medium. Waited awhile as the person in front of me had a large order. Will say food was hot and fresh, but the quality of chicken has gone down. One of my tenders was nearly 1/4 all fat/grissle. Sadly, it will probably be awhile before I give them another try.

Good evening my dudes and ladies also. I was hungry for some chicken earlier and knew canes would not do. I have been to Dave's a few times before and always great food/service. I stopped by earlier for number 1 order and only down side was there could have been more fries for sure. Keep up the great work

I was introduced to Dave's by my great granddaughter. I was doubtful, but not anymore. This is some of the most favorable and moist chicken I am sure that i have had in years. The chicken is affordable even with delivery. There is nothing not to like.

SOOOO GOOOOD. I wouldn't say I am a fried chicken connoisseur, but this has to be hands down the best chicken I have tasted. It is heavily seasoned but not overly so, and the sauce is very good too. they are always so polite and kind at the window and inside. The inside looks very clean and I like the vibe it gives. I would say this place is a must try.
