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.

Finally got to try this place out after hearing good things about it from people. I placed a to-go order since Dave's is still new and the inside is always packed full of people. Got the #2 combo - two chicken sliders with fries and an extra sauce - with one Medium and one Hot slider. Had no issues with my order and it took the estimated time (10-15 mins) that their website said, which is amazing given how busy they were when I went to pick up. The chicken sliders are legit - a sizable piece of chicken with lots of flavor, t... read more

Dave's hot chicken is absolutely amazing. It's probably way better then Popeyes chicken sandwich. Highly recommend to get that Dave sauce and that extra cheese. And if you are a baller try reaper hot

My husband and I went this afternoon and I thoroughly impressed. It was really busy when we got there (around 2/2:30pm), but we were still able to get our food within 15 minutes of ordering. Customer service was on point, everyone was as friendly. It's a small joint, so we decided to just take our food to go, it felt crowded in there with all the bodies. I got the hot tenders, my husband got the medium slider and tender meal. Both were hot (temperature wise) and the flavors really shined through on my hot (think the spicy ... read more

This is my favorite new restaurant in Omaha and will probably be the reason I become obese in the near future (worth it). I seriously can't get enough. Spice level Hot is a perfect balance of spicy with enough bite to leave you wanting more. The chicken is fried to a perfect crunch yet still so juicy. The sliders are bomb. The tenders are bomb. The sauce is one of the best parts too--way way better than silly old Raising Canes sauce. The fries are some of the best fries out there; super crispy with a good seasoning on them. ... read more

Dave's Hot Chicken is worth the wait! The menu is simple but the combination of things you can get is awesome! I ordered the two chicken sliders with fries. The chicken is full of flavor and the fries are amazing! The only thing I wasn't a big fun of was the sauce but it is still good. The manager came outside while we waited to talk to us which is always make you feel like they care about their customers. I can't wait to go back!

Tried the reaper slider. It is indeed quite hot but not as hot it sounds. Also, it is quite expensive for side a 1 slider. Almost 9 dollers and they they just added the tip automatically? Didnt even ask me. Probably will visit after couple months when it kinda gets less busier

Best chicken sandwich you'll ever have. Girthy crunchy chicken that puts chic-fil-a to shame.

Customer service was great and so fast which I appreciated because I was nervous about there being to many people. I ordered the Dave's #3 which was a tender and a tender sandwich with coleslaw and a side of fries and of course a side of Dave's famous sauce and pickles. The Tenders are a nice size and seasoned well. I wished a drink came with it but we did get a milkshake which was SO GOOD. They have vanilla, strawberry and chocolate you can even ask for them to make it a Neapolitan and they'll make it no problem. My daughte... read more
