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 JOURNEY After 6 months of running the pop-up with long lines, the team took the plunge and op... read more

Placed an online order, the order was prepared on time. Ordered the two slider meal, a milkshake, and tenders meal with an extra tender. The milkshake was really good. The chicken was good but was supposed to be "hot" didn't taste any spice. It was labeled "hot" so not sure why I didn't taste spice....I'll have to try extra hot next time to see if there's spice BUT it tasted good. Fries crispy no complaints aside from I wanted spicy and it wasn't AT ALL. While pricey (extra tender was $6 that's WILD for one tender) I'll defi... read more

The food is pretty good, but I think there's better Nashville chicken places out there. Especially with hotboys on the map. I don't really like the flavor because it has a strong curry taste and the flavor of the chicken is pretty lackluster. Texture is very good when it's fresh. Good crunch and crisp. Service is not that great.y order was messed up a few times. I would get Mac and they would give me fries. I would put no break and got bread. It was correct on the receipt but wrong when I opened it. It's not a big deal or an... read more

I ordered the #2 combo with no spice. I got the slider with slaw, tenders for my son, and Dave's sauce on the side. Overall, the chicken was good, no complaints there. The slider with the slaw hit the spot, and I've tried it with medium spice since then, which was actually way better than I thought. However, I ran into a bit of an issue with the sauce. I asked for more sauce and was pretty much told no, but the person helping me eventually gave me one to be "nice." Felt a little talked down to during the exchange, which wa... read more

If you're a fan of spicy, juicy, and flavorful chicken, you HAVE to check out Dave's Hot Chicken in Pleasant Hill. I went in with high expectations, and the hot chicken sliders did not disappoint! These sliders are packed with flavor - the chicken is crispy on the outside, juicy on the inside, and perfectly seasoned with that addictive Nashville-style heat. You can choose your spice level, which is perfect if you want to dial it up or down. I went with "Hot" - enough to get a good kick without being overwhelming, but they ha... read more

My friends and I met up and we decided to come here for dinner. I have never been here before, but the menu looks rather simple to order from. Besides their other specials, you have about 4 menu combos to choose from. I opted for both a tender/strip and a slider so I can enjoy one of each. Slider and Strip: I got medium spicy and it packed quite a kick to it. The chicken itself was juicy and moist and quite flavorful. The house sauce is a good dipping sauce for the chicken. Also, adding honey yourself gave it a sweet profil... read more

Customer service is generally really good, but have noticed that this is location is quite inconsistent in their spice levels, some days medium is hot, sometimes extra hot is mild. Would like to see some more consistency knowing what I'm going to get. Was a little sad that they also refused to let me get a side of the fry seasoning with my meal. Hoping to see some more consistency again but still good food!

Great food! I love the chicken and Mac bowl! Service is great and there can be a bit of a wait if you go late night.
