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.

I rarely review anything. We love Dave's in my family hand down. I personally feel that they are way underrate that what thwy deserve.

The shift manager Nick always has great energy and pretty much fills the place and his employess with his energy. The other day I bought the double slider meal. In the app, I meant to order two medium spicy. B... read more

I love Dave's Hot Chicken in general. This location is really busy but though, which isn't bad, but it's a little slower than others. I love the painting on the wall. Tonight, our orders were wrong and I bit a bone, so that was not ideal. 

Business response:

Glad you're a fan of Dave’s! Sorry to hear about the issue with your meal. We would love to make this right. Please reach out to us at dhcfeedback.com.

We've never been to a DHC before or the other chicken restaurant across the street so after looking at the reviews for both we chose Dave's. And we're so glad we did. The workers were great, very friendly and helpful. And the food was really good with good portion sizes! Don't be deceived by the "sliders" name. They are actually the size of a regular sandwich. We got the medium heat and our son tried the hot and reaper. The reaper is no joke - they make you sign a waiver! The fries are crispy, not soggy, and the seasoning on... read more
