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.

Tenders (4/5): Big pieces of chicken that were lightly breaded and full of seasoning. I wish there was a little more crunchiness, but at the same time I'm glad they weren't over breaded. The spice blend was good (I'm right in between medium and hot) and I liked the dipping sauce (pretty typical thousand island type sauce). Sliders (4/5): The slider is just a tender on a bun with some sauce and slaw on it. The bun is very mediocre, and since the tenders come with white bread, I didn't think there was much of a difference be... read more
I lived in Nashville for 11 year's, and Dave's is some of the best hot chicken I've ever had! If you like spicy, I recommend the extra hot, because the hot was more like medium to the 3 of us who had lunch there. I would have given this a 5, but the Mac and cheese was terrible, to the point where after two bites the both of us who ordered it had to stop. It didn't look it, but it smelled and tasted like burnt ash. But all you need is the chicken and the fries. I will be back!

Everything is just, okay to below average, except the size of the tenders. Dave's is solidly in overrated territory. Meaty tenders - check, well cooked, but the chicken alone really doesn't have much flavor. Not Meat - love the cauliflower, crispy, juicy, and a great chicken alternative...but $2 extra...for a veggie substitute is a consumer crime. Sauce - meh Fries - mid Slaw - mid Mac - please someone get them a new corporate chef. Spice-level - As hot as you want it. I have tried them all, and hot is about the best flavo... read more

Excellent hot chicken ! Get it hot or super hot! Also get a slider if you're not sure about the heat level

These are definitely the best chicken tenders I've ever had! They were so crispy and had so much flavor. I got mild heat so it wasn't spicy but still had so much flavor since they were seasoned well. The sauce was delicious and the employees were happy to give extra sauce if you asked. The fries were really good and crispy too, and I love how you can add cheese sauce to them. The inside has a good amount of seats and the customer service is great. It was our first time ordering so the cashier took his time explaining the men... read more
