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.

No star low enough. The chicken tasted like It was tossed in taco seasoning... supposed to be "mild". Very disappointed and for the price not worth it. Fry's were okay lightly seasoned and very crispy. And ice machine broke on me walked out like I went snowboarding.
Stopped in around 10:30 on a Saturday night after flying in from West Coast hoping for a quick bite before heading to the hotel. Waited more than 45min for 3 chicken sandwiches for me and the kids. Seems like it shouldn't take that long to make a chicken sandwich. Kids were tired and hungry. Very frustrating. Seems like some production streamlining is needed.
Prices are way too high! It's chicken for heavens sake! It is fast food! Get your prices in line with what you're serving! Otherwise in this economy you will be out of business fast and furiously!
All I wanted to do is look at the menu. It is so convoluted to try and find a menu that is a waste of my time. So many other options.
Wanted to try Dave's for a while so we stopped in Saturday night just after 11pm. I was bummed there was no drive thru. Went in and ordered #1 2 tenders and fries medium heat. Got the food super fast. While there was nothing wrong with the chicken, I found it was very underwhelming. For a place that only does chicken, I thought it would be some really good stuff. It reminded me of the tenders you can get at the Market Basket grill. The chicken seemed a little rubbery and the coating close to the meat was like paste. ... read more
We order from Dave's once or twice per week. We always get the hot tenders, fries, and coleslaw. Often, we get the chicken sandwiches. Our favorite item was the "not chicken", cauliflower. Unfortunately, in the recent weeks this item was replaced by the chicken bites. We will miss it!! As previously mentioned, we have been going here once a week since opening in Saugus. Not anymore. We were served raw chicken tonight. Deeply disappointed and concerned over food safety and our health after eating this. Photo attached.
This place is ridiculous. I needed to place a large order for a catering didn't care if I had to purchase 30 diffrent orders. And spoke to Sammy told him I was driving I knew what I wanted I also could pay over the phone and they refused to take my order. Pretty rude and just said nothing he could do. They are not allowed to take food orders over the phone . Honestly I can see why this is one of the lowest ranking daves hot chicken: I ended up ordering from somewhere else where humans can actually speak to you . Such a sha... read more
Way too expensive for the portions, chicken is over seasoned while simultaneously having no flavor
I should have known better soon as I walked out with the bag of food I knew it was light. A chicken tender with a french fry for $10.69? Come on I can do better at a handful of places around in that price range.
