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.

Tried it in Sunnyvale. Was impress with their slider meal. The breast chicken meat was juicy and spicy. Love it. Here is my scoring card for this restaurant: 1) Location: ( 5 Point ) - Great location for customer to see and find. Great parking for street parking and back side with parking lot parking. 2) Decoration : (3 Point) - They still have the original decoration. Clean. 3) Price: ( 3 point)- The price is competitive but still a little bit pricey compare to other same stars and type food they serve 4) Quality and ... read more

More like 3.5 stars. It's good but not great chicken. at the end of the day I prefer Popeye's and Shake Shack chicken sandwiches to these.

Dave's Hot Chicken is such a well-known chain in the LA area, yet I never tried it until I was back in the Bay. They're known for their hot chicken that can be adjusted to different spice levels to satisfy all the spice fiends in the world. I came to this location on a Tuesday evening around 9pm. The space was clean and well kept, and there was a good amount of tables. There were more people than I thought there would be, but I guess that's the result of being one of the few restaurants around that's open until 11pm on a wee... read more

I saw somewhere online that Dave's was offering "Non Chicken" (cauliflower steaks) as an alternative for non-meat eaters so I had to try it! The sandwich I had was FANTASTIC!!! I got the mild since it was my 1st time trying their heat. It was definitely mild but what I absolutely loved was the *crunch* of the coating and then the tenderness of the cauliflower. It was the perfect combo. I'm typically not a fan of honey but decided to try some on my sandwich with the slaw & additional Dave's Sauce - I literally did a happy d... read more
