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.

Slider with medium level heat: I didn't feel any heat at this level, just tasted well seasoned and the meat was juicy and tender. The bun has a good bite and tasted buttery and premium. Pickles were good, slaw was seasoned well. The extra Dave's sauce was delicious. Fries well done: perfect amount of crispy for me! Love a properly done crinkle cut fry and this hit the spot. Went well with Dave's sauce and ketchup. Staff were nice and they paced the line well. Food came out relatively fast for the size of the crowd.

Daves hot chicken is sooo good. For one, their range of spice is great as it can truly be for anyone. For another, their not chicken slider is delicious, and my vegetarian friends can also enjoy the meal with me. The staff here was really kind and helpful as I debated on what to get. The food was incredible as always.

Ooooh my word! This place is so delicious. My First time trying it after hearing about it for so long. I just had to sample both the Tender and Slider. Good taste/flavor, and the fries were seasoned great, and with that sauce.. Amazing. I will definitely be ordering from here again, and next time I'ma try their Mac n cheese. Thank you, Dave

It was my first time going to Dave’s Hot Chicken, and it was an overall amazing experience. The staff in particular were really kind but I would like to highlight the general manager, Hugo, because his customer service was superb! The food was delicious and tasty, 10/10!! I would highly recommend this place!! :)

This place is so good! Their chicken is super crispy and juicy. I love the pickles they serve with each meal. They have meal options with a great variety of ways to select sliders or tenders. It’s nice how you can customize the spice level. They do not overly spice their chicken which I appreciate. I liked their sliders! Potato bun is delicious. They came with a giant piece of chicken and spicy creamy dipping sauce. Their Mac and cheese is bomb and they have amazing crinkle cut fries. Orders are ready fast within 10 minut... read more
