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.

I ordered online through the Dave's Hot Chicken website. When I approached the pickup window, I saw another customer waiting there. However, both of us didn't see any staff attending to it, so we went inside. While I waited, several customers got their food as they saw their names listed on the TV. However, I didn't see my name listed even though I ordered via the main website. After everyone except for me picked up their food, the cashier gave me my food which had been there all along. I didn't have to let other people ord... read more

My favorite chicken place! I love spicy food and this place is the only restaurant that can match my level of spiciness. Love seeing Ralph every time too! He always gives the best customer service, makes eating here not feel like a battle over my antisocialness haha.
Business response:
5 stars back to you for being an amazing guest! Thanks for the love and see you next time!
I ordered for delivery and i specifically asked for honey packets. This is the third time I have ordered from this place and they forget sauce packets I ask for. I also asked for extra napkins and I literally got 1 sheet of napkin in the bag. It's the details that count and for that I have to give it 4 stars. Please pay attention to the orders. I typed it in there for a reason!

Order 2 slider and Fries and I was unable to finish my food. Three of my co-workers also were not able to finish theirs. The chicken sandwich is hot fried just right and you can choose how spice you want it. I really like the pickle and coleslaw on the chicken sandwich. The fries have a good taste and is piping hot. After you complete your order, they hand you a pager when your order is ready the pager goes off, you do not have to stand there and wait like other fast-food places.

So glad you loved it!
Not sure why the ratings are so low here. Did my order and received my food very fast. The chicken on outside did look a little different from the original Hollywood one. It looked more dry and I was concerned until I bit in. Flavor and juiciness was just like every Dave's I've been to. Everything was on point. Not a perfect 5 because the Hollywood spot is a slight bit better

Ordered online for pickup. Website was easy to use and navigate. Pick up at the restaurant was simple and straightforward. The employee knew what she was doing and got it for me right away. There's indoor and outdoor seating. I got the chicken sandwich, no spice. Taste-wise, it was great. Crispy and tender. However, the portion was disappointing. It just isn't worth $6.25 in my opinion. I didn't feel full after finishing it. Other places have equally tasty chicken sandwiches at a lower price.

This place will leave an explosion of flavor on your taste buds! I get the medium heat flavor Dave's #4 and ask for extra kale slaw and extra Dave's sauce. Make sure to get your honey to add into each bite!! My lady loves Dave's Mac'n'cheese! The staff is awesome there, going above and beyond with Hugo as the lead man. The times we've been there, Hugo has always been delightfully friendly as well as exceptional customer service. He assists in all the operations including keeping the front very very clean!
