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.

Looks delicious! Thank you for the photos and the awesome review!
Columbia's finally got this awesome hot chicken spot. Dave's hot chicken is a chicken spot that makes tenders and fries. They got a few other menu items, shakes, and whatnot but this place is all about the chicken. Dave's hot chicken has multiple spice levels so you can choice your level of spice. I tried very hot, hot, and medium. Medium is as it sounds and is a great place to start if spicy isn't your main thing. They also have no spice for those that cannot handle any level of spice.

Glad you loved it!!!
Food and atmosphere were amazing! Chicken was the best that I've had in quite awhile. Staff were friendly and helpful. We tried medium and our kids had no heat. I look forward to trying all of them! The chocolate shakes are also a must-try item!

You are awesome! Thanks for the love!
Great chicken and the best chocolate shakes. Matt Simonetti and his staff went above and beyond to make sure we had everything we needed. Want great chicken where you can tailor your amount of heat or none at all? Give them a try. The honey takes it over the top!
