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.

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

Yesterday we went to the grand opening of Dave's Hot Chicken. We are hot chicken enthusiasts so we are so excited to have Dave's in our area! They have the choice of chicken sandwiches or chicken tenders. You also have the choice of heat level for your chicken. I like a little bit of spice, I ordered the mild and it wasn't spicy at all. Next time I would choose the medium option to add some more spice. Their Dave's sauce was very good and went so well with the hot chicken. I think one of the highlights is their fries that ha... read more

I was excited to hear another spiced chicken place was opening and this place didn't disappoint.....with the food at least that is. Tenders some of the best I've ever had. But idk they must be hiring kids with extreme adhd or memory loss or something. Cant even get my order right. The speed of service was pretty on point at least. Idk if my insides getting destroyed is worth the price though. Still I'd recommend trying it at least once. It's that tasty.

Literally the best Chicken in Idaho! The seven spice levels make it available for everyone to eat from the no spice to the reaper--better customer service than chick-fil-la, and way better tasting. Dave's #2 is literally so good and I leave full every time. Definitely coming back. I came as a customer, they treated me like I was family, and I left as a fan of this cooperation. The vibe of the place with the graffiti on the wall and the amazing-looking food really is a 100/10. I am definitely sharing this place with friends a... read more
