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.

Ordered for pickup via their own app and DoorDash multiple times. Sometimes it was not made at the time I requested for pickup so the bun was soggy by the time I picked up. The hot is not spicy enough, the extra hot is a little too hot but really good anyways, the reaper is no joke, extreme and I had to chug some milk! The chicken is flavorful and juicy while fries are nice and lightly crisp on the outside and potatoey on the inside, just how I love my fries. The service is nice and quick as soon as I get there to within 5 m... read more

Shirley took my order and she was super nice. Above and beyond what I'd typically expect at a fast food joint. food was a solid 4/5. got the slider hot and fries and they were great. as a spicy lover the hot was a decent amount of spice, not painful but enjoyable. the vibes inside are nice too. clean and hip decor with 80s music. i recommend if you want your hot chicken fix!

Ordered takeout, just got the 2 tender combo. The flavor wasn't bad but felt more salty rather than spicy. By the time I got to the second tender I had already finish a whole cup of water. The fries were good though.

While walking and talking on the phone, I mentioned to my partner "I've never heard of Dave's Hot Chicken." A random but sweet lady said "That place is really good!" Her enthusiasm made me break my diet to give it a try. Upon entering, I was greeted with a smile and Malinda stated "I will be with you in a second." She was very kind and had a warm demeanor. I ordered a slider and fries. I was so thankful she asked if I want the slaw on the side as I didn't know it came on the sandwich. The sandwich was fresh and my fries wer... read more

Absolutley Wonderful!! I heard a lot about this place from my friends and was extremely excited to visit. On my way home, I happened to pass by and was looking for a place to grab a quick bite, this was a perfect ppputnuity to try Dave's out. I got their Dave's number 2 consisting of 2 sliders and fries and it was absolutely amazing. The service there was impeccable as well.

I was excited to try this spot but it didn't really do it for me. Ambiance is cute but I was expecting more from the food. The chicken to me wasn't fresh I've had way better chicken sandwiches from other local fast food chains. A bunch of seasoning but no flavor for me. The fries were sub par and it was a bit over priced for the meal for it not to be that good. Service was good very friendly staff.
