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.

This was a very good and juicy chicken sandwich. I personally don't like pickles in my chicken sandwich's so I just took them out. When I arrived there was a line out the door but it moved fast. I was out there for less than 10 minutes. The inside was really crowded so I choose to sit outside. It was nice out, they have a few tables set up. Sandwich was 8/10 only because there were too many pickles.

this place rocked! the chicken was fresh and so delicious but I personally got it Hot which was a bit too hot for me. I would come back and get the medium for sure. the tenders come with packs of dave's sauce and packs of honey as well. the fries were super yummy. I shouldn't have ordered the extra tender because 2 was more than enough for me but i didn't know better lol. the place was packed and had a long line out the door, the employees were all very nice and made sure everything was organized. in the photos you can see h... read more
Really enjoyed checking out the new Nashville hot chicken spot today! I went during PEAK lunch, on a Saturday nonetheless, and have no complaints about service time. When we walked in the line was backed up to the door, but there were two registers and a third employee taking orders on a tablet so the process went fast. The dining area isn't very large but the tables were being turned over fast - with one employee walking around wiping tables and sweeping to tidy. There's also an outdoor seating area that's a significant... read more
HIGHLY recommend trying Dave's! When they said "sliders" I was expecting a tiny sandwich but this was a GIANT sandwich. I was so blown away by how juicy the chicken was. It was everything you want in fried chicken: well seasoned, thick, and juicy. So thankful for everyone working there, the line was out the door, down the plaza hall, and everyone was still very nice and got the orders out quickly. The inside of the place had so much cool graffiti, I only managed to snap a picture of the "Tampa" graffiti right above the orde... read more
Super friendly staff. Mangers checking in on every table noticed this while waiting for my to-go food great store! Keep catching those kids trying to use those water cups for sodas had me crying laughing how you guys handled it!
I've been to this locations multiple times since the morning it opened. I can say this has surpassed all my expectations of a chain chicken spot. The only way for me to describe it is to say that it's what Raising Cane's wishes it could be. The chicken is so perfectly seasoned and crispy. Very tender, juicy, and flavorful. The macaroni and cheese is delicious very creamy and deep flavor. The atmosphere and vibe of the restaurant is very vibrant. There's both tables and benches to sit at as well as outdoor seating. The parkin... read more
I went here yesterday and was very impressed! I've actually eaten at the Orlando location before so i knew what to expect but I think I prefer this location more. The food was hotter and tasted better to me. There was a bit of a wait and the parking was pretty much full, so keep that in mind if you visit during a high peak day or time. But I think the wait was worth it. I got a slider with cheese and a tender which was amazing but the slider without is just as good. To be honest, I wouldn't waste my time ordering the Mac ... read more
Brand new and it is so good. Duke put me on to putting honey on the hot chicken and that was amazing. Duke was amazing and he will ask you questions and actually cares about your experience eating. When he suggested the Honey and told me to come back if I didn't like it. (Loved it) This restaurant is going to be very successful.
First off, the environment is so energetic and amazing. The vibe us spot on. The food is 10 stars, the best chicken I've probably ever had. The spice level was fantastic, we tried the medium, hot and reaper and they all were perfect. The service was amazing as well. I can't say enough positive things about Dave's. I 100% will be coming back and bringing everyone who loves chicken with me!!! Well done Dave's Hot Chicken.
