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.

I've been to various Dave's locations, including the LA chains. Most times it's solid hot chicken sandwiches. Not the best I've had, but pretty reliable if you're having the craving. This time I got the #2 which was 2 sliders with fries. I always get mild. Usually I'd say their fries are on the soggy side but I prefer soggy fries so it works out. Food came out within 10 mins on a fairly busy Saturday evening. Lots of tables inside for dining in and it felt new and clean. Portions were very filling. Would come back!

Ooh yum yum!! I've always wanted to try this and hadn't until now. Arrived around 8:30pm so late but there was a bit influx of all genZ looking dudes coming back from the gym around 9pm. I ordered the 2 tender meal and added the kale salad, with medium spicy. These chicken tenders are skinny ish like chick filet but the meat and covering is wayyy better. The meat is so tender and tastes like real chicken breast not a mix of fake stuffs. The medium spice this time was pretty spicy. I would prob go for mild next time. But i ... read more

Had this door dashed to me so it could have been a little warmer, would probably prefer to eat it a bit fresher. I ordered the sliders medium spicy and felt like they were a perfect medium. Super tasty and would definitely go back if I happened to be nearby

One of many Dave's hot chicken in Silicon Valley. This location is always populated fairly during lunch and is one of my spaces I enjoy as a teacher. This location compared to the others however have a slightly smaller chicken size if you order the tenders in comparison to the Milpitas location, which is the only downside. Service from workers here are always solid and it makes up for that disparity at this location.
