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 don't understand people. This place was delicious. The chicken was juicy and the sauce is very flavorful finger licking.

We went to go try Dave's Hot Chicken and I have some mixed feelings about it. Pros: - the food was pretty good. We ordered medium tenders, and the chicken was really juicy. The only downside was it was needing more heat, so I might get hot next time. The fries were seasoned very well and very crispy. Cons: - The price for what you get is way too expensive. $13 for chicken tenders and fries is almost criminal. I've also had better hot chicken before at local places at a similar price point. Overall, an ok experience but... read more

The #2 sliders were excellent!! Not dry, still had the juicy taste! When we ordered the food the young man there was respectful! Definitely worth the trip from Fayetteville to eat some good food! Don't get me started on that sauce with the coleslaw, pickles! Great atmosphere too! Enjoyed eating in and relaxing having laughs with my brothers! Will be back!! Must stop and check out !!!

Besides the slight increase in pricing the chicken and what comes with it is a whole meal that will leave you feeling good for at least 2-3 hours. Service was fast and the atmosphere is calm.

Great hot chicken. Pretty standard. Service is an A+. Tables and dining room is always clean. Taste of hotter chicken is inconsistent which docks a star

Dave's Hot Chicken is an excellent chicken spot addition to the Holly Springs area. Tyson took our order and was very articulate, punctual, and very friendly. The service was a 10/10. The food was awesome too. Chicken was juicy and flavorful. Fries cooked to perfection. (I mean how hard is it to mess up chicken and fries?) Atmosphere is really great for anyone but culturally designed toward younger generations (less than 30 yo). Pricing is a high but that is to be expected in this day and age. All in all Dave's is a great pl... read more

Parking: plenty of parking since it was in a shopping mall area. Food: chicken tenders and chicken sandwich. Fries were great and seasoning and sauce were really good. Also enjoyed the pickle on the side. They said the medium spice was similar to a chicfila... honesty thought chicfila was spicier. Would have upped it on the spice meter they had the next time we go. Otherwise it was still really good Service: decent service and just took our food to go Ambiance: a small,open restaurant that was pretty clean.

This is the REAL DEAL for spicy chicken, and I'm a guy who only buys ghost pepper or hotter. Fries and special sauce are solid, too. Well done

lowkey over priced but good quality. The drive is far out but if you live near the place it is not bad.
