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.

I So happy Dave's hot chicken opened up in NYC. The hot chicken is too good. Must check this place out
Tried it for the first time last night and really liked it. The place was jumping at 10 pm, and there was a long line. That made me confident the food would be good, and it was. I had the chicken fingers platter and it was delicious -- the chicken was done just right, and the fries that came with it were very good too. I tried the mac and cheese for a side, and it was just meh, so I will try the slaw next time. The service was good for a fast food type establishment with lots of customers -- the folks behind the counter ... read more
Just straight up really good fried chicken, super crispy on the outside and juicy and tender on the inside. If you can handle spice definitely go spicier than you would normally because the spice "scale" is on the milder side

I visited Daves during there promotion for Drake's birthday. I was very excited to try out this chicken sandwich since I knew Drake was affiliated with the company and for myself being a lover of spice. The sandwich was good, I ordered the hot spice level which was moderately spicy and not overbearing for my taste, I actually should have gotten extra hot for more of a kick. Also I ordered the fries which I thought was ok. Also its a pretty small place inside so when it gets packed you may not be able to eat inside. I don... read more

Dave's Hot Chicken was so delicious! I ordered the meal with two sliders and fries and honestly it was too much food for me and I should've gotten just one slider lol. The chicken was perfectly cooked. I got extra hot and I didn't feel like it was too spicy for me (but I like spicy food). The fries were nice and crispy. The sauce was everything. I also tried the Mac and cheese and didn't think it was bad but it wasn't amazing. I ordered for pickup and got my order pretty quickly. Definitely would return!
Very good i enjoyed the food. the tender was very well spiced nd the mac nd cheese was cheesy nd creamy. fries were good as well
Great food. Went for Drake's Birthday and lines were sorta long. Free Sandwich was offered
This is probably hands down the best spicy chicken sandwich I've ever had! I was not expecting much at Dave's Hot Chicken because there's so many spicy chicken sandwich joints out here in NYC but I was pleasantly surprised! I got the mild which was perfect for someone who can't handle super spicy foods- it was super flavorful and had a nice kick. Overall, I am very pleased with Dave's Hot Chicken and I look forward to coming back.
This place always has a long line and I finally had the chance to try it. We shared the Dave's #2 between 2 people, which is two sliders and one fries. We tried one medium and one spicy slider. The spicy slider definitely packs a punch. I preferred the medium spicy version. The kale slaw goes very well with the chicken. I don't usually like crinkle first but I was a fan of theirs. It was very crispy and well seasoned. Although lines are long, they move quickly so it's worth queuing up (or ordering ahead online)
