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 have been dying to try Dave's chicken and see what the hype is about. I ordered their chicken tender sliders with French fries, not spicy. The fries were actually very crisp and the chicken had good flavor. It's not the most amazing chicken I have ever tried but it does have good flavor. I believe that for the price and flavor, it is a bit overhyped. The order did take a while since it was somewhat a busy afternoon. The menu is very small so the selections are limited.

Big portions. Delicious! Short and straightforward menu. I had medium which was reasonable heat for lunchtime. Fries were excellent and well seasoned too.

Solid (and spicy!) hot chicken. Dave's Hot Chicken offers a pretty limited menu (chicken tender either in a bun or on white bread, fries, kale slaw, mac n cheese) and that is A-okay cause the chicken is definitely the main attraction and all you really need. The "hot" heat is a tasty spicy with a definite kick. My usual order is two tenders or sliders and fries and it's a pretty filling meal. Staff is nice and helpful.

Customer service great, food 8/10 prices are over rated. The fact that you have to pay for extra sauce is wild
A jazzed up chicken tender. The kale slaw is not at all visible. Mac and cheese, nothing special, taste like kfc mac and cheese, taste. It's not worth the money. The best thing is that it was hot!

Was excited to see this chain open up a NYC location after trying it out in LA. The flavors were just ok, but they used alot of sugar in the chicken tenders not tasty.

Okay I'll be honest this was an impulse purchase. Slightly hungry and craving friend chicken and fries. This place had a high rating on seamless. To be honest I wasn't sure what to expect I ordered a #3: 1 Tender & 1 Slider w/ Fries -- medium heat First and foremost the portion of chicken was enormous I wasn't expecting that. Medium heat was plenty hot, I really like spicy food this was perfect for me. Medium heat is not what you typically get normally. It was really a lot of food I couldn't finish it. I ordered onl... read more
Many people seem to be impressed by Dave's Hot Chicken. I've seen it dubbed as the most flavorful and juicy chicken one can try. I definitely wanted to explore this hype and did so a couple of weeks ago by ordering their #2 combo platter to-go. At first glance, 2 measly tenders and a handful of fries doesn't seem like it'll do much for most people. However, rest assured that these tenders are not regular-sized. They're pretty gigantic and looking back, one would have been plenty enough for me. I ordered my chicken as light ... read more
Delicious food with generous portions at a very reasonable price. Highly recommended for a visit!
