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.

When I first ordered I thought the prices were a little high, but after enjoying our dinner it was worth every penny. We tried the hot extra hot and reaper and trust me when I yell you the hot is indeed hot and the reaper is... Incredibly hot. I'm not a complete wuss when it comes to spice I order my Thai food 4 out of 5 spice but the reaper makes that feel like mild. Great fries and delicious chicken!

Dave's is good and I like the food, the restaurant has a good theme and Is also open decently late when your hungry at night, the service is also pretty good and I have no complaints, my only issue is the price, a meal here tends to be upwards of 15 dollars witch is pretty high compared to other options in the vintage oaks, but if you have the money it's a great eat

The mild is actually pretty spicy, so be careful ordering for kids. This is pretty mediocre food. If you're not a spice fan, you may feel like I do, and remove this from your list. The staff is very nice and they are fast. It's just not for me.

The bread doesn't combine with the delicious spicy chicken. I like the idea of having the chicken from non spice to very spicy fiesta amigos.
Is the food good yes. But is it worth it-- not really for the price. It is not even organic chicken. Tried it once that was enough for me.

I like the decor, lots of seating inside and outside as well. I like the fact that you can pick how spicy you want your chicken. I wish they were a little faster in getting the food ready.
First time I got introduced by my son to try this restaurant while visiting Novato. Why ? I always thought since the restaurant's name had HOT Chicken that all menu will be spicy! My son ordered online for pick up! Upon reading the menu it had several heat level of their mixture of spices : No Spice Lite Mild Mild Medium Hot Extra Hot Reaper I got Lite Mild Single Slider which was served in a potato bun with kaleslaw, pickles, added cheese, chicken tender was drizzled with their signature sauce.

I'd been meaning to try Dave's Hot Chicken the last couple times I was in LA, but never got the chance. I happened to be in Novato, came across this location, and jumped at the chance! First off, the gentleman at the counter was very friendly and helpful. I told him I have a pretty high spicy tolerance, and asked him if I'd be ok with the "hot" spiciness level. He said yes, and he was right! I was totally fine with it, and next time I'll probably try the next level up! As far as food goes, I ordered the slider and strip co... read more
A different take on fried chicken! Loved Dave's sauce which goes great with fries or chicken. Friendly and quick service. Will be back!
