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.

Atmosphere fun and upbeat. Clean and friendly. Had to sign a waiver to order Dave's Reaper hot chicken. Texture on the chicken and fries was perfect. CHICKEN IS DRY RUBBED NOT SAUCED. If you are wanting to prove your metal on the HOT chicken, you have been warned. That chicken has not been basted in reaper sauce but coated in reaper powder. These are two entirely different affects. Only thing here I don't recommend would be the milkshake (real ice cream) is brain freeze in a cup that would come in 2nd to soft serve every ti... read more
First time going here. Did the drive thru and ate at home. Travel time was about 20 minutes so it wasn't as fresh as if we'd had stayed to eat. That being said it was very good. Not sure why they use the term slider it's a chicken sandwich no question. Fries are well seasoned and delicious. Dave's sauce is real good the pickles were FANTASTIC! And the milk shakes were also tasty. No complaints at all about the food. The decor inside looked fun and inviting. The people running drive thru were fantastic and friendly. Helped us... read more
Love Dave's Hot Chicken! Their quality has been consistent in both of my takeout and delivery experiences. The spice levels can get spicy real quick, so I recommend exercising caution if heat is not your thing. It can get quite busy during peak hours for both drive through and dine-in, so expect a bit of wait. The service is always quick and friendly! Super clean inside and ample indoor seating if you don't want to sit outdoors.
The chicken tenders were cooked very nicely. Juicy and tender. The powder spice is a bit bizarre, but all in all, tasty.
I went by for free slider day and wasn't disappointed. I got the free slider (quite large as far as tiny sandwiches go) made "light heat". It was a notch above mild and had enough heat for me; although I often try the full heat too. The piece of thick chicken was as big as any very large chicken tender. Meaty and somewhat juicy, it was good. The pickles added to the flavor but were a bit mushy. The brioche bun was great but didn't hold together the whole time I was eating. There was another sauce on the bun that seemed to b... read more
It was good, but they put a ton of seasoning on the chicken. You might really like that but it wasn't my favorite. Overall a really good experience though.
Don't walk to this place, RUN! Compliment to the chef. My wife and I ordered #3 to try the sliders and the strips. It was out of this world. The slider was juicy. Full of flavor. Spicy as we liked the hot sauce. The bun was soft and buttery. Loved the fries and the pickles. The chicken strip was large well cooked and quite tasty. Don't miss this spot. Its the real spot for fried and hit chicken. These three guys did their homework before opening. Hooray! Will be back soon.
Dave's hot chicken. It is exactly what it sounds like, spicy and hot chicken. The food is amazing and the unique restaurant style is amazing. The service is good, they serve it fast and the different choices of spice is nice. When you walk into the restaurant, it is already a good vibe, the art on the walls is very eye-catching. Also, their fries are very good, especially with the fry sauce. I would definitely recommend this to anyone, just be warned some of the food is spicy.
The service and food were both good. That being said pop-eyes chicken is better in my opinion. Dave's chicken has a whole lot of seasoning on it, a bit too much if you ask me. I had a hot tender and a very hot tender and I would say they are on point for a heat rating. The Meridian location drive thru is a little bit tough getting through with a truck, I'd recommend large trucks just taking the time to go inside
