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 really like it. Pretty good. I would eat this everyday. Probably the best meal ever.
He wanted hot chicken, I wasn't hungry so I hopped on over to Dave's and procured a couple of Extra Hot fingers for him. He said they were decent and he enjoyed the spiciness. I should have at least had a bite, but I didn't so I have to relay his opinion here. I ordered online - it was easy and was ready in about 20 minutes. A quick drive to the shop and my order was ready when I arrived. The fingers traveled well, that is they were not soggy in the container - an issue that plagues many hot items packed to go.

4.10.25. 0106 My first time here. I saw a tik tok where a couple ate the tenders but at different heat levels. I figured I'd do the same. The mild is too mild, for me. The medium is good. Hot is LOVELY. Extra hot is not for the faint of heart and I will not try the reaper. I was genuinely surprised at how juicy the tenders were. I was expecting dry, super crunchy outer coating, but the taste was a light crunch and moist. So good. I should have just stuck with the tenders, but I ordered the two tender meal, which in... read more
I had a great experience at this location, primarily because of Gerson. I was a first time tryer and he pointed me in the right direction with Dave's number 2... and it was good!
I've been to this location twice and the food is worth the long wait! The chicken comes out cooked perfectly and the sauce, bread and fries compliment it so well. Could have been 5 stars for me but something was off about the person at the register. Seemed like she didn't wanna be there, but I understand that people have bad days so I didn't ding them too bad for it. Will be back for sure
Gerson was amazing, what amazing customer service, excellent food. Chicken and fries very tasty
Great customer service. Gerson was one of the nice and friendly employees there. Happy they have the cauliflower options back
kind of disappointed! love dave's and it's normally very good but they added just the idea of kale slaw to my slider. i asked for no pickles but i love the slaw and they added about four pieces of it. also their mac and cheese (not pictured) was quite terrible do not recommend. if anything i would tell you to buy a box of kraft mac and cheese and it will leave you more satisfied. the chicken itself was fantastic as always though so i'm not completely upset about it just disappointed. also they left the slip of paper in my bo... read more
