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.

Woah! Fried chicken done right. Dave's is newer to the neighborhood and I had to find out what they were all about. Tucked inside a mini plaza, parking is ample and seating is too. As a newbie the staff was patient and made sure they read my order back perfectly. Chicken comes on a single piece of toast which I enjoyed way more than I thought. Sauce is NOT sloppy drenched and had just the right heat for mild. Mac was simple (toddler approved) and the bites were PLUMP. Under the pickles is the pink sauce (must try). Also ... read more

Great food but a little pricey...they give you a free milkshake with a review, but they don't include the topping..a little weird

Well let's just say in the past month we've been back six times and have yet to return to Chick-fil-A and that's saying a lot coming from my son the staff is fantastic. The restaurant is clean the food is super fresh, looks like this is our new chicken go to Spot Super IMPRESSED!!!!

Okay now Dave with the seasoned chicken. I went with the 2 piece tender meal no spice and my son ordered the 2 Slider meal hot. Dave's sauce is delicious so next time I will ask for extra. I will also get a slider so I can taste that Kale Slaw. The place is really trendy looking with the art on the walls. I took my order to go and service was definitely quick. I will be back Dave lol
