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.

Overrated chicken to say the least. I'm not sure where all the hype stems from but it isn't worth it. The rub they use on their chicken didn't work for me and it felt a bit salty as well. It reminds me of the hot sauce they use at halal carts, which on chicken over rice is delicious, but on a fried chicken sandwich just didn't fit. The young lady working at the register was a sweetheart though. Shout outs to her for being so welcoming. Typical fast food restaurant feel. I would not recommend Daves Hot Chicken.

Spicy but absolutely amazing sandwiches! The sauce is incredible, and the sandwich itself is so juicy and fresh. One is super filling, making it totally worth the price. If you're craving something flavorful and satisfying, this spot is a must-try!

Freakin' tasty chicken, love love love the potato roll with the sliders and generous helping of pickles. Has become a go-to place in the hood; my only issue is that the chicken tends toward the stringy rather than juicy. So close to perfection- but in the race for perfection, they still create excellence.
