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 is fresh made to order, service was pleasant and prompt, the dining area was clean. This was my first time trying Dave's and it was delicious! I tried the hot spice level and for me it was perfect without being too much. Looking forward to returning to have more yummy chicken!

Super yummy food, good atmosphere, and friendly customer service. Would recommend getting the blue powerade slushy - it was delicious! Wait time was like 10 minutes which was not long at all. Definitely will return.

I ordered the 10 piece chicken bites with fries and the fruit punch frozen drink. The chicken bites were really flavorful and juicy. Really good deal at $9.99. The frozen fruit punch is really sugary. Tastes good but just too much sugar. Overall pretty good place to grab a quick bite 

Business response:

Thanks for the feedback! Glad to hear you enjoyed the chicken bites—sounds like a tasty deal. We appreciate your thoughts on the frozen fruit punch; we'll keep that in mind. Overall, it’s great to know you found it a good spot for a quick bite. If you have any other feedback, feel free to reach out to us at tellusdirect.com/dhc. Hope to see you again soon!
