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.

When it comes to chicken sandwiches on this side of town... absolutely unbeatable workers are always nice it's very clean! And I took my uncle for the first time and even living in the south he said it was the best chicken sandwich he's had! 10/10 stamped!

WARNING!! Food was amazing but I warn you and everyone that the reaper sauce is no joke and should be taking serious. I absolutely love hot food and I thought I was brave by ordering a hot slider and a REAPER slider and after my 2 first bites of the reaper I instantly wished I didn't get it. Please do not let your kids under 18 try the reaper sauce. I'm 26 years old and this will be the last time I ate a reaper pepper anything. Amazing fries and Mac and cheese tho!

The chicken and fries tasted pretty good, but not for the price. They give you sad white wonder bread-esque toasts and some sauce too. Paying about $45 for a total of 6 chicken strips and 3 orders of fries is pretty absurd. Not worth it in my opinion.

Looks like a normal drive thru, but WOW, a great eating place. The chicken was fresh and delicious. A place to try. Lots of spicy levels to try. Service is quick, little waiting. The chicken was moist and the seasoning is not a hard shell, but moist. Fries are standard. But the mac n cheese is very good.

Literally the best chicken. Their sandwiches are actually spicy, like to the point where you have to sign a waiver. I was in a lot of pain the next morning but it was totally worth it. The chicken is super crispy and really delicious. Their Mac and cheese is also surprisingly good and helps cool off the heat from the sandwiches. It also tastes good with fries. For some reason the Mac n cheese cheese sauce is way better than their actual cheese sauce so if you want cheese fries I recommend getting a Mac n cheese on the side a... read more

I come here a lot because it's so good. But this time I got the reaper tenders thinking it'd be something I could just laugh about but no. It kicked my rear end to Florida and back. Needless to say I got a medium tender as a buffer. The servers are always nice and Donae was super sweet. Always a great place.

5 stars back to you for being an amazing guest! Thanks for the love and see you next time!

Food is amazing juicey and crispy chicken nice amount of spice definitely one of the best chicken places I've ever been to. The service was amazing people where nice but I did have to wait around 12 minutes for a single slider but service was great. Only actual problem I have with Dave's hot chicken is the price for food ratio a single tender is 5$ 2 sliders with fry's is 16$ it's just a little to expensive but fine.

We were incredibly impressed with this Dave's hot chicken. Isaac waited on us, then came to check on us more than once. This was not at all what I had expected from a fast food restaurant. I loved the decor too. I call it "organized graffiti". Thanks again for bringing Hollywood to here!!
