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.

I keep seeing Dave's Hot Chicken everywhere in the OC so it got me so curious. I finally decided to try it with my husband when my brother said he was going to DoorDash Dave's. I got the combo with 1 slider and 1 chicken tender. First bite of the slider was delicious! Loved the bread (I normally don't like bread), the chicken was surprisingly juicy (I 'm very picky with chicken because they tend to be dry). The cheese sauce was just OK, I prefer Fudruckers cheese dip (if they're still around) haha! The chicken tender by its... read more

Friendly service and great location. Cool wall designs. Employee who served and took the order was friendly. At this time, they are offering a check-in on yelp deal for free drink. We ordered chicken tenders and chicken sliders to try both options. We enjoyed the meal overall, spiciness level for mild is just right for our taste, but the meal was on the saltier side. Fries may have a little too much seasoning and chicken could be crispier. Chicken goes well with honey; my mom was pleasantly surprised. My family was happy ab... read more

I come here all the time with my son. It's addicting, I would recommend starting off with the medium spice level first before going higher. Milkshakes are original and to die for, would put in and out to shame.

Being a newbie to the Dave's chicken movement we just ordered a combo meal each and assumed that was the way to go. For a "quick bite" we spent $32 and we only got 1 soda the other was water. Ok so food is expensive these days.. whatever... The mild level of heat is the way to go as things get real hot real quick as you move up the Dave scale. Baboon ass is a real thing folks... Sandwiches were good, French fries are really good...

chicken alone, amazing. i do wish they put more slaw on the sandwiches, i asked the cashier if they put a decent amount so i could order extra if needed & she said they did but it was very scarce. the important thing is the chicken though & that was five stars! the bread is soft & they do give an abundance of pickles. the fries were too salty for my taste but they were served hot & i enjoyed the sauce. the portion size is good & their sauce is similar to what i've had at Cane's or Angry Chickz. restaurant was clean. i've... read more

I thought this place would be good, but it far surpassed my expectations. It was FIRE. Cheese fries with the little sauce was top tier. The inside space was cool, service was fast and overall five stars!
