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.

Overall: This is a small store that mostly caters to people carrying out. They basically only serve a few permutations of fried chicken tenders with different levels of spicy sauce. The meals are well executed and are probably a step above many of the other fast food chicken places nearby. The portions are pretty huge and always fresh. Its a good place to grab lunch. Food: 4 Service: 4 Value: 3 Atmosphere: 3 Food: Food is very good - probably closer to a 4.5, but doesn't quite push it over the top. I ordered the 2 sl... read more

A little shop, but the food is VERY good! The kale slaw is perfectly seasoned. The cheese fries come in a large portion and was served hot with crispy fries and lots of cheese. Perfect snack!
it's not bad but when you first get it your more focusing on the powder they drench the chicken in than the chicken itself, I quite like the sauce they gave me with the number 1 and 2 and the present once you first open it is magnificent . The vanilla milkshake is top 1 for me right now.

The food was very good, would give a 4/5 for food alone. Unfortunately, the service just wasn't great, the person at the register didn't acknowledge me waiting to order for a little while and was just a little curt with me. Also, several of the tables were dirty even though it looked like they'd been empty for awhile, just wasn't the best atmosphere.

Crowded as it can be if you go after work like I did. You may it difficult to find a spot to wait if you're picking up an order but the staff is nice and on point. I got no spice items and came here after some complaints to corporate about the nonexistent delivery experience I had when my sister suggested I try it. Going here finally gave me a chance to try the food for myself. If you want an idea of Southern cuisine and like chicken, this is for you. The fries have a kick but aren't overwhelming with spices. The no sp... read more

Hey there, thanks a million for the stellar five-star review! You're fantastic! We're delighted to hear you had such a wonderful experience. Your feedback keeps us striving for excellence!
Dave's Hot Chicken serves up deliciously seasoned hot chicken tenders and crispy fries at a great price. I ordered my meal to-go, and despite the busy crowd, it was ready fast and piping hot. The chicken had the perfect level of spice, and the portions were generous. The food is consistently good, and it's a reliable choice for a quick and satisfying meal. If you're craving flavorful hot chicken, this is the place to go - there's also an area to sit and eat too with an old school looking vibe.

Hey, thank you for the incredible five-star review! You're a real MVP! We're over the moon that you enjoyed your visit. Your support fuels our passion for what we do!
The sliders were bigger than I thought, the #4 was definitely enough for me for a meal. I got the hot level but it wasn't that spicy. Also the dry rub didn't really have much of a flavor, just spice. But the sandwich was delicious and balanced in texture and flavor. For a fast food joint, I definitely liked it! This location wasn't too busy and waited about 8 mins for my order. The girl who took my order was very smiley and sweet! The guy who was preparing the meals was moving pretty quickly as well. Don't see that type of s... read more

I was expecting a lot more from this place, the flavors didn't have no kick, and were very similar in spice level to level of heat. Also the environment is somewhere I don't want to eat at.

As I'm signing the waiver I couldn't help but think WTF am I about to do to my stomach and why was I so daring on this particular day I sat down and you can smell the heat radiating through the bag I opened my box and took my first bite and to my surprise the heat was bearable full of flavor and this was without the Dave sauce which I added next with some honey which took my tenders to a whole other level of inner fatness the fries were crisp and hot but I was too busy focused on my tenders and my new GameDay go to
