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.

Not my favorite chicken joint at all. The chicken itself was good but if you want any spice get the hot. Fries were dry and had no seasoning and the coleslaw tasted bland. Won't be returning

Slow and the staff is completely lost and didn't care; waited 30 min for one order of chicken tenders, there was only a few people in the store and only a few call in orders on a Friday.

They serve the food so late and prioritize online orders instead of the people waiting for their food in store. The chicken isn't even spiced well either, it tastes chemically made.

The chicken had no flavor and was dry, plus it was $14 for only 2 pieces of chicken and the drink was separate. I also waited 35 minutes before I got my food

Ordering for pick up is wonky. You start at the Dave's Website where you are asked to develop your order. And then it asks you for pick-up or delivery. I chose pick-up. Then it takes you to another site, Grubhub, where you must re order again. If you try and bypass this and call, Dave's message continues to repeat that the website is the quickest way to order meals and to not disturb the busy staff as they will not be able to pick up. Upon arrival I had to order my food in person as my order was not placed even though the ... read more
