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.

First time trying Dave's and was surprised with how much I enjoyed it. The chicken itself was pretty substantial in size, but also in flavor. We took it to-go and ate at home and the food didn't get soggy and the chicken stayed crispy. The sauce is also delicious, would definitely have it again 

Business response:

Wow! Thank you so much for the 5-star review. We're delighted to know you enjoyed your experience with us. Do come back soon

Prices were not as reasonable if you RNG a small slider in your combo, great service and ambiance tho!

Pretty good chicken and as flavor is decent. It didn't feel undercooked like Canes usually does. The dry rub coating is very dry, so the special sauce helps it go down. A little pricey for the meal, considering it doesn't come with a drink. Fries were good consistency but way too salty, couldn't finish them (and I ALWAYS finish fries). Also it may have been because it was at 7pm on a Sunday, but it was completely empty and FREEZING, like walk into the Costco cooler freezing. Ended up taking it to go. 

Business response:

Hi Elly, We'd really love a second chance to make this right. If you have a few extra seconds, would you mind connecting with us at https://tellusdirect.com/dhc? -Julie

It was my first time trying Dave's Hot Chicken & it did not disappoint! As a vegetarian I was so excited to hear they added a cauliflower option! The Cauli Slider was so flavorful and had the perfect amount of heat. The Fries were also very well seasoned. This location looked newer and it was nice & clean inside. I would definitely come again!

We had chicken sandwiches. I had the mild, and my husband decided to try medium. Both sandwiches were good, but a little too hot for my husband.
