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 hype is real! Awesome meal every time. My husband and I come here almost weekly now for lunch. The service is excellent, always polite. There is a good amount of seating for the size of the restaurant. Love the artwork as well. Love their custom Dave sauce and adding cheese to our sliders. They have many spice levels, so don't be fooled to think they only have hot chicken if you're not able for the heat. I usually get no spice and my husband medium, he says it's quite hot. Will be returning and should be tried if you are... read more
Amazing food with amazing service,Must come again .Recommed the chicken sandwich i love Daves hot chicken
Wow. Just wow. One of the best chicken sandwiches I've ever had. Star was super friendly on a Friday night. This sandwich was everything everywhere all at once! The medium was perfectly spicy. Not too hot but I'm still savoring it an hour later just WOW!!!
I love this place still. I came back to this establishment with many friends, and they all enjoyed it. like the last time I came, the seating was pretty easy to come by. I got the two sliders and it was so much food. The store is really well lit and the colorful walls make it a super vibey place. this is the place for quick eats with friends. I would definitely come back here.

Thanks Marina! We're so glad you loved it and can't wait for you to come back and vibe!
So tasty. I get the Medium level and it's perfect level of spice. Love the 1 slider 1 finger combo. Comes with tasty seasoned fries and pickle. Bread is plain and not tasty really. But everything else awesome.

Delicious, I love the sliders and the kale salad. These pictures don't do the food justice.

We are glad you loved it! Thanks for the love!
This was my first time to Dave's, I saw it on IG and from the pics was prompted to go check it out for dinner. The 86th street location. The food was divine... the taste will keep me coming back! The menu has spice levels for everyone, I got the number 2. Two chicken sandwich sliders and fries. The sandwich was fresh hot and juicy. The name says slider but the portions were meant for giants, the sandwiches were huge and I'm glad because I ate every bite. Damian took our order and he was extremely friendly, pleasant and p... read more

Wow! Sounds like you had an awesome experience! So glad that you not only had a great meal but that our team was able to make your visit a pleasant one! Thanks for the love and hope you stop by again soon!
After seeing it everywhere on the internet,finally went in to give it a try. Got the single slider with fries with medium spice level. The chicken slider was good.Not spicy at all for me.Should have taken the next level of spice. The fries were good.The sauce is amazing.The guy at pickup was kind enough to give me some extra sauce. The service was quick and efficient. It has a small seating area as well.Not great for large groups though.

Thank you for the feedback!! How do we earn that 5th star next time? If you have a few extra seconds, would you mind connecting with us at https://tellusdirect.com/dhc? -Julie
If you ask me, I think the sandwiches should be spicier. My friends around me disagree. Yes, you need to sign a waiver to eat the hottest flavor, but the rub and sauce used isn't just there to give you as much sting as possible like with other places that advert an extremely spicy option, it also delivers on the flavor! Heat chasers, definitely give this a try.
