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.

Possibly the best chicken sandwich you will ever have. I discovered the business in Las Vegas and was thrilled when I found out they have a few locations in Sacramento. Highly Recommend!!!

My husband had been talking about trying Dave's Hot Chicken for awhile. The restaurant was clean and the staff were extremely polite. We both ordered the lite mild chicken tenders. I ordered the mac and cheese with mine though. The chicken was juicy and very good with honey and the mac and cheese very cheesy. My husband said the fries were good. If you like spice and want an alternative to a plain fried chicken this is the right fast food chicken place for you.

Food here is the best fried chicken I've ever had. Absolute 10/10. Never going anywhere for fried chicken again besides Dave's (not sponsored, and I don't get free food lol). The staff is always crazy friendly, and the restaurant makes you feel like they care when serving you Overall, yes a little pricey but DEFINITELY worth it
