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.

Slowest service I've seen for an empty fast food restaurant. Waiting 20 minutes for two tenders to come out.

After 5 days on my back sipping Gatorade l can't prove that Dave's was the culprit but I definitely have a psychological aversion to eating there again. If this has happened to you please message me on Yelp.

The food was not what I expected. It was not worth the long wait. They were understaffed for a Friday night.

$13 for a meal that doesn't include a drink. And a 30 min wait for fast food. Expensive and slow...is this the new business model for fast food? No thank you!

My husband and I visisted Dave's on Aug 4th for the first time. Don't know if we will be back. We ordered the Two sliders and fries. Very good BUT the service is terrible. It took our order over 22 minutes to received. The two customers in front of us stated that theres was over 25-30 minutes. They need to add staff and possibly look into the starting pay, hopefully they are starting over minumun wage.
