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.

Unpopular opinion... the hot chicken trend is fun, but Dave's does not live up to the hype. It was packed full of people when we arrived on a rainy day. This location was a bit tight but the decor was cool. My son ordered chicken tenders--medium heat with an Oreo shake. He loved his shake but said the tenders lacked flavor.

The spices were perfect, but it was missing salt to bring... read more
