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 finally found it! The fast food chicken of my dreams. I have been looking for this for a long time. I had high hopes for Canes but it was so bland, no spices at all. I like my chicken with a good spicy bite & Dave's delivers deliciously! The chicken was juicy & flavorful, just the way I want. The french fries are cooked exactly as I like them, tender - not crunchy/overcooked as is so common. The bread was just bread, nothing special but that's not really important to me. Because we, unknowingly, dined at the Costco Dr. loc... read more

Placed the order on their app super easy. Was ready by the time i arrived within 10-13 minutes. Headed straight for the online pickup window said my name order ready and complete. Got home everything was exactly as ordered and everything was excellent. It is a lot of food the sliders even though the bun looks a little bit small the actual chicken piece is huge so if you get a box with the two sliders, you can definitely share it. The cauliflower bites were absolutely delicious. I was pleasantly surprised, they were crunchy a... read more

Finally was able to eat here because they added a cauliflower option. Super good! The service was a little slow but they did give us a heads up before we ordered. Cool, relaxed atmosphere.

Delicious food. The chicken is crispy and well seasoned. The sauce is a little tangy and a little spicy. The coleslaw is a perfect topping and it's crunchy and tasty as well. The people at the counter are super friendly. The woman who told me to add extra sauce and honey was just about the nicest person I've met in a customer service role. Why the hell does it take so long to make the food? Are they slaughtering the chicken back there? It took fifteen minutes to get my single slider and it wasn't busy. The last ord... read more

First time at a Dave's... the staff was super nice and helpful. Chicken was good and crunchy but strong taste of paprika or cayenne... I don't have a super sophisticated palette sorry.... I like hot food but with flavor... dipping sauce was nice and love crinkle cut fries.

First time coming here. My son is an avid Nashville hot chicken fan so we had to try it out. We ordered the 10 piece tender box with a side of $10 crinkle cut fries (sold separately). They tasted fine with the medium and mild flavors. It was fairly busy and it took a little bit of time to get our order. Other than that, it was just ok.

Definitely a tasty chicken sandwich, but it's very expensive for what it is. Dave's is a fun place to go with a really cool and hip atmosphere. The sandwiches and chicken tenders themselves are seasoned well and they come in a variety of spice levels to suit anyone's preferences. The problem was that the tender size varies so much that my sandwich had a really little chicken finger for the price. The fries were nearly perfect, but that sandwich was almost all bun. I went back to get just a single finger for the road, and it ... read more

I rarely eat greasy fast food BUT when I do I enjoy Dave's Hot chicken for a relatively inexpensive dinner. I love the medium and spicy seasoning's on the tenders. Little on the salty side but as I've said before I don't eat allot of fast food. I also find it interesting as to why they give you a slice of plain white bread like at least put some butter on it!! But overall atmosphere is very nice and I LOVE PICKLES.
