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.

Fast service, great food! Sliders are pretty big, fries seasoning are tasty. One thing that really stood out about this location is the woman named Dolores. She was super friendly to everyone that walked in the door and was super helpful.

Friendly inviting service - shout out to Adrian(?) for being super friendly to folks coming on in and taking our orders. The chicken was super solid- decent sized in the bun/slider. Moist and not dry at all- nice seasoning and enjoyed the medium level. Will be curious to try different heat levels to see how it is. Fries are fine- nothing special or bad. I would probably choose these chicken sandwiches over chick-fil-a or Popeyes. Dave's chicken is different but just better I think. Breading/seasoning is quite different, almo... read more

Since I had a great experience in Nashville with another Hot Chicken location, I decided to give Dave's a shot. Definitely wasn't Nashville Hot. But it wasn't bad.

I thought the chicken was on the salty side for myself. Fries were cooked perfectly and crunchy. Soft drink was not included with the meal. Music playing through out the restaurant... read more

Ordered a medium level #4 which came with the chicken sandwich, fries, and pickles. If you ask for sauce they are really generous and packed our bag with honey, ketchup, and Dave's secret sauce which pretty much tastes like everyone else's secret sauce aka thousand island lol The medium is not spicy at all, literally just looks red but tastes like a non spicy thigh. Next time I'm gonna go up two notches to see if that has any spicy heat at all. Overall the chicken was moist AF and decently crispy and juicy. The fries were... read more
