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.

Average…service was lackluster, food was ok…I don’t know if I’d return here to eat…the chicken was kinda rubbery. We had the 10 piece Dave’s bites and fries with medium spice. I liked the heat of the spices! It had good flavor, they just need a better quality of meat!!

I love Dave’s hot chicken I eat it so often and it’s the best fried chicken in Bloomington. I wish I had one close back home.

Second time here. Great food both times. By far the best fast food chicken I’ve had, and up there in terms of best chicken, period. Joshua was a great server. Fries are good too. Dave’s sauce is good stuff. Nothing crazy about the atmosphere, but nothing bad either.

First time trying Dave's Hot Chicken, and boy oh boy, it was amazing!! They've won our family over for sure! The chicken was way bigger than I imagined, and every level of heat we tried, was delicious! At first I thought it looked expensive just going off menu prices and pictures, but honestly, after seeing the portion sizes in person, I think it's more than fairly priced. I've definitely paid more at other places for way less food. We will definitely order from here again. Keep up the great work!! Can't wait to visit again!

When it comes to hot chicken, I expected a spicier chicken, but the dominant spice was cumin. Maybe because I chose medium level spice. Portions are large and delicious. The taste of the potatoes is not bad either. It is very good that they provide wet wipes (I saw this for the first time in the USA).
