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.

Dave's hot chicken has some delicious and flavorful and juicy chicken sandwiches and tenders. I highly recommend them I've been looking for a hot chicken sandwich that could rival Popeyes and I'm not gonna say that they're better but Popeyes is the king then Dave's hot chicken is the queen. cluck cluck.

Nothing will ever be quite as amazing as the original Hattie B's Hot Chicken in Nashville, but with that said.. Dave's is my favorite that I've found in town! I have been twice now, once dining in and once thru the drive thru. Both times the food was consistent and delicious! Friendly service too! The drive thru went surprisingly quick and food tasted just as good as my dine in experience. I like to order the #4 because you get the chicken slider that has the delicious kale slaw on it, pickles and a side of fries with Dave's... read more

Food was amazing. The crunch of the slaw, some honey , the Dave's sauce and those extra pickles on the side make this chicken sandwich/slider stand out from the rest. I was perfectly satisfied with one slider add cheese. You can also add a nacho cheese like sauce on the fries which my order taker suggested. So delicious! We had fast and friendly service. Went on a Saturday and had a place to sit. Love the decor. My husband ordered one hot slider and one reaper. They make you sign a weaver for the reaper which had my husband ... read more

So good!! We got the sliders with an extra strip. The slider was delicious and the perfect flavor combo. The vibes are definitely funky but we enjoyed it. Lots of seating and quick service despite being busy!

When I visited their Denver location a couple months ago, I left thinking I had just eaten the best hot chicken ever. So, you can imagine my utter excitement when I saw their post announcing the opening day! I was so hyped. Sadly, the delivery feel just slightly short of my expectations. My husband and I stopped by a little after 5:30 and it was pretty packed. I ordered Dave's #2 (2 sliders and fries, served with kale slaw, pickles and Dave's sauce, $13.99) and a side of Mac & Cheese ($4.99). I hadn't had the Mac & Cheese ... read more

Dave's Hot Chicken is surprisingly super good. Their story began in an open air parking lot on 5/2/17 in California. They quickly gained a following and expanded and it's easy to see why. Their spice options and flavors are amazing. From No Spice to the hottest option, there's something for everyone. Fries with fry sauce and slices of pickles top it all off. Prices are WAY TOO high considering what you get and some of the staff could be a bit more professional. A basic meal with a drink will cost you about $15. It's misleadi... read more
