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'm a vegetarian, but loved spicy chicken sandwiches when I still ate meat. After hearing about the cauliflower "not chicken" sliders, I really wanted to try it but didn't have high hopes. It was SO good! My wife and I easily finished our sliders, and the following day, we ordered again. Service was good. The restaurant was nice with good outdoor seating. It absolutely exceeded my expectations.

I am a huge fan of Dave's Hot Chicken. First had it in 2021 and have been loving it since. I was so happy when this location opened last year because it's only 20 mins away now! My gf and I go here somewhat often and the quality is always amazing. The chicken always is juicy and tender no matter how busy or slow it is. We've even left it out for a couple of hours before and ate it and it was still juicy and delicious. The meals are also served with fries but that's just a nice addition. The service here is usually pretty q... read more
This place rocks let me tell you for around $13 you get two chicken sandwiches, which are well seasoned, juicy and large with an amazing sauce and pickles, fries, which are plenty for two and soda. Not only does the food but the ambience is also pretty cool and hip. This is probably my favorite chicken sandwich from a chain in the area go try it!
I visited the first time in November. The tenders were large and were part of an entire chicken breast. Also they were juicy & loaded with seasonings. I ordered the mild level of spice, which was tasty and had a little heat. Revisited yesterday & totally different experience. The two tenders COMBINED were the same size of 1 tender I received in the past. The spice levels changed too. My mild was tasty, but no heat. Seemed like a dry rub. I won't be returning to this location. Will see what's going on in. D.C.

New hot chicken sandwich restaurant in the NoVA region! Honestly, I've had this brand of fried chicken sandwiches in Los Angeles in the past a couple times. However, I was surprised to see that it was going to be right here in Tysons Corner, VA. Last month I visited during lunchtime on a Friday with two of my friends and we got the sliders and also tried the tenders. Overall, the flavors were pretty spot on, the portion sizes were great, and the spice levels were excellent. It was also pretty busy all around. Quick fast eats... read more

The decor looks really cool! Very appealing to graffiti art lovers. Our server was very nice and thorough when it came to getting our order. The strawberry milkshake by far was my favorite, it made up for the sandwich. I order a #2 (one lite mild & medium) w fries. It came with a complimentary sauce & sliced pickles (yay!) The fries were yummy and crispy but the chicken sandwich wasn't too impressive.

Ok! Be careful! Don't joke with the Reaper! I made fun of the waiver, and now I know why! Lol, stay away from the reaper! I'm a spicy food lover and couldn't handle it! Luckily, they had milk shake! The place is nice and has nice outdoor seats! Amazing sandwiches , not so many options in toppings, but honestly, the only topping I really feel I need is lettuce ! I love it that they have cheese! There are so many of those chicken sandwich places that don't offer cheese like Hot Lola's, and I hate that! Thank you, Dave! I ... read more
Daves Hot Chicken is definitely some good quality chicken, whether you get the tenders or decide to go with the sandwich. The spice is just right, and the heat levels definitely bring the heat. Also, Daves Hot Chicken dipping sauce is fire, make sure you get extra sauce, they don't give enough unless you order extra.

My wife has been wanting to try out this place for a long time based on the popularity on Tik Tom for this chain. Unfortunately it was a big flop as there is nothing special about their chicken sandwich. Also they got the order all crossed up, to their credit they made it right but we ended up with much more food than we needed.
