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.

It's the best. Chicken is so tender and the Mac and cheese is so good. Glad I live so close.

Chicken was okay! But those cauliflower tenders were amazing! I would highly recommend those.

The place is very new and clean but the food isn't that good. We're the only one here when we ordered and it still took a bit to get our food. When we did get the food it was cold--both the fries and chicken. The chicken is also dry but it does have a good amount of seasoning. Also, the drink machine is out of half of the flavors.

This was my first time trying Dave's Hot Chicken. Upon entering the establishment, you a met with a modern and ecletic enterior design. The costumer service was great. I did not catch her name but she was very nice and answered all of my friends questions. Now, onto the food. It was filling, and well seasoned. I liked the packaging and the way that the food was positioned within the container. I plan to go back and would defenitly recommend that you give it a try! * I had Dave's #3 hot and extra hot. I am a person who can... read more

Five stars as compared to other fast food places. This location is new. I was excited when I saw they were coming to Monrovia and eagerly awaited the opening. Made it in the 2nd day. If you are not familiar with Dave's, the chicken can be ordered as either a strip or a slider. Most of the time people think small on a slider but that isn't the case here. Nope, Dave's sliders are served on a full sized burger bun and the chicken breadt is large. Slaw, pickles and Dave's sauce are on the slider. The strip is good sized to but... read more

Delicious. Chicken is moist, favourful. Moderate is not spicy. But very very salty. And I usually eat very salty. So if I say it's very very salty. It's super salty. But I still like the food.

This is me at a friends pool when it was triple digits outside. The food at Dave's is very good but the ambiance is very very loud/noisy, so I ate outside. The chicken was really juicy and tender, the pickles were nice and crunchy, and the Mac n' cheese was thick, gooey, and delicious! I'll definitely come back. Mike M. - Pasadena
