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.

One of my friends had never tried Dave's so I decided to take her to the University location and they did NOT disappoint! Once we walked in, we were greeted with a few welcomes and surrounded by a nice and steady atmosphere. Janiah was our cashier and was very helpful when it came to ordering our meals. We tried Dave's #1 & #3 which was delicious! 100% coming back for service and quality.

Great tasting chicken tenders. We order medium spicy level. You get the kick without the burn.

WOW. WOW. WOW!!!! Dave's Hot Chicken was actually not my first choice, the restaurant nearby was closed but BOY AM I GLAD! First off, the woman who took my order was so nice! I told her I had never been here and she recommended the #3 (which I TOTALLY recommend now too!!) At 7pm, the restaurant was filled and I took that as a good sign that the food was delicious, but I was worried how long my food would take. The food only took 5 minutes tops! I was handed my food by the manager so I appreciate the effort in good service.... read more

First time at a Dave's and I have to say I was very impressed. Everything was very fresh. The tenders were big and flavorful. Service was quick and food came out pretty quickly. If I was to have any negative comments it would be that the music was a little loud, but bearable.

It's an absolute flavor bomb! The chicken was spicy and sweet, great slaw and great bun... only the chicken tender itself could have been better. It wasn't as "tender" of a tender as many other places, and it didn't seem as fresh as it could have been. But it was still darn good and worth future visits for sure. The cleanliness of this location needs some work, it's too new of a business to be showing signs of neglect already. The service was top-notch as the cashier walked around the counter to review our menu options and... read more
