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.

What do I even say, first of all the service was amazing. The tenders and sliders were delicious and spicy. We got extra hot and it was so freaking good !! The owners were so friendly and welcoming.

I love the Dave's Hot Chicken in midtown and was excited to hear they opened another location in the city! Bay Ridge location is so cool and spacious. The food is just as delicious and amazing as the other location. One of the best fried chicken spots in New York hands down. The sides are some of the best I've had. The staff is also very friendly and helpful. I recommend everyone check this spot out.

Decent slusher. The burger/fries all had the same monotonous dry rub on it. Meh. NOT worth a second try.

The food is alright . The rub dries it out . The service is terrible and so is the ambience . Walked in one day ordered a meal to go , sad down and cut my jacket open on the sharp corner in the picture . Asked for a manager , AR comes out to speak to me . I ask for the store managers business card he gives me a free item card and tells me the store has no business cards . Ask for the managers name he tells me it's BLUE. Says the manager will be in the next day . I called the restaurant the next day a female picked up the pho... read more

I sincerely don't know what all the hype is about this place. I ordered medium spiced and though the spices were good, the chicken itself was extremely bland. The french fries were okay and the cheese was very disappointing. People were saying that this place was better than Roll N' Roasters chicken tenders and I must disagree 100% I ended up throwing the other half out because it wasn't worth eating.

Wow I really don't get the hype. The chicken is bland as all get out. I got the mild and mild light maybe that was the issue but the chicken isn't seasoned one bit and they forgot the honey. KFC's Nashville tenders have more flavor and are half the price. The Mac and cheese was decent but I would never try this place again. Thoroughly disappointed

Visited this place $18.00 for 3 or 4 chicken tenders with fries. Besides it being super fried, it was overly seasoned where I didn't taste chicken at all. It tasted like takis/hot fries on chicken. My hopes of this being great was sad. The taste was terrible. And forget about the wait. Waited 30 minutes and it wasn't crowded. Not sure if I will return to this location. I will stick to getting it out of state.
