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.

The staff is really nice! The chicken is amazing and flavorful every time - the spice really sets Dave's apart from other chicken places. 10/10 recommend

Diamond in the rough. Small non-descript building that I didn't know existed until the commercial on tv interested me to try it. So glad I did. A little expensive but good very very good

Best food, customer service, and professionalism around. In the days where everyone is trying to compete for Best Chicken, Dave's is the clear favorite in the area. Bigger portions than Raisin Canes, better crunch than Chick Fil A, and better spicy than KFC. Excellent spot.

My husband recently took home Dave's hot chicken nuggets and cauliflower with fries. I was surprised that the chicken was both crispy on the outside and how tender inside.

My GF and I came here for the first time today. We both got the number 3 . One slider, one tender, and fries. Large portions and fantastic quality! Extra spicy was perfect for me. We'll be back!

Great service from the gal at the register! Made great suggestions to first time customers (including me) I had a slider in extra hot and a tender in hot. Both were tasty! Seasoned Fries were crispy and also tasty! Next time I'm trying the Reaper sauce!
