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.

I am not new to DAVES HOT CHICKEN, but this is a new location I'm visiting here in Brooklyn . I ordered pick up on their website for my lunch. I waited less than 5 minutes for my pick up order and the staff was kind. I got the #2 combo which consists of 2 sliders and I added cheese to both. I am a punk when it comes to spice so the spice level I got was lite mild. Their flavors go all the way up to "REAPER" which is supposed to be spicy straight out of helllll lol. Also try the HONEY on your sandwich as well, it gives it a ... read more

Great chicken sandwiches with a kick... you can choose how hot you want the spice ,Mac and cheese is so creamy and slaw reminds me of homemade , just loved it .

New spot in bay ridge, wanted to give them a try since the last time I had them was in Vegas. In Vegas I tried the hot wings and regretted it, way too hot. So now I settle for the mild which is great. No complaints about the food or the customer service BUT expect to wait 20-30 minutes for food. I have been here twice now and it's the same wait. They're literally apologizing to every customer for the wait. I don't remember myself waiting this long in Vegas so I don't know what the issue is here. It's barely tolerable but for... read more

A friend picked up a few combos from here as they're newly opened in Brooklyn. I've had my fair share of Dave's Hot Chicken in LA, but I must admit it's one of the better spots for Nashville hot chicken. The sliders are huge and filling; they're more like burger size. The seasoning they put on these chicken is flavorful and full of spices while tender on the inside. Dave's have been popping up everywhere and I'm happy for it. Good, consistent hot fried chicken here!

Dave's Hot Chicken lives up to its name. My wife and I couldn't agree whether it was Spicy or Hot; but either way here are the key points. The chicken was delicious and juicy, like dripping juicy. Martins potato buns holding the sauce, slaw and pickles, and it comes with a side of pickles, Dave's sauce and crinkle fries. This meal slaps. Service needs improvement.

Dave's Hot Chicken did it again!!! Another location. Same great chicken. First location was in Manhattan and now Brooklyn. Finally!!! So happy they are here. The staff is always super friendly. I got the Mild and Medium sliders. Always a safe heat level with those two. Shirley the manager was so kind and friendly. Please go see them. Quick reminder this is not fast food like McDonald's or Popeyes where they have chicken being kept warm and you get your food in like 3 mins. They cool each order as the orders are being placed... read more
