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 chicken was crispy, hot, and spicy. The roll was soft, the aioli was sweet and creamy cutting through the heat. This is very good chicken cooked to order. That results in slow service. Not an in and out so could be tough on someone on a work lunch break. It's otherwise in the debate for best hot chicken in NH. Loved it.

First time at Dave's. We shared the sliders. Ordered medium spice. Chicken was freshly cooked served hot with slaw and pickles on an undersized bun, messy. Tasty, but extremely salty. Fries were also over seasoned with the same spice mixture. Too much of the same flavor for me. Chocolate shake was average. I noticed that all the orders were packaged as to go. We weren't asked if we were taking out, or eating in. Lots of styrofoam containers and plastic bags. Not very green.

Very busy store. Food was good. Hot flavor means hot and I say that as a southerner :) team members were friendly and store appeared clean. Always plan for extra time as this store stays backed up. Definitely worth the visit if you are a chicken fan!

Super cute, clean, great food and friendly staff. It took a while to receive the food but I believe it was because they were not very busy and was preparing it on the spot. It was freshly cooked. The location was convenient and there is easy, free and ample parking.

The chicken is incredible. The quality of the food really makes the difference. The kale salad is my favorite side at any restaurant. It's absolutely worth the price, the portions are gigantic!! It's consistently great!

I am a little surprised with how low the ratings are for Dave's. While I can't say it's 5 stars amazing, I've found both takeout and delivery to be consistently fresh. The crinkle cut fries have always arrived crispy and the options I've chosen are not too spicy but still flavorful. They have some of my absolute favorite pickles. I don't like their coleslaw but I acknowledge I am picky about coleslaw in general and just learned not to order it after the first time. I add a little of their honey to the chicken sandwiches and ... read more

Very simple concept. Chicken tenders. Either with or without a top bun. The usage of pickles and honey is great. Daves sauce is delicious. They let you substitute Mac and cheese at no extra cost. The shakes are delicious. The service is always quick and when you order on the app food is always kept warm for pickup. Ambiance is very unique to the area. Not much of a sit down type place, prefer take out for lunch at work.

Honestly was a little skeptical but I give it 7/10. The girl behind the counter was nice & polite. It was busy but only a quick wait for our food. We got the 2 sandwiches & fries which was a little pricy but worked out because we ended up sharing it and were still full. Good portion and yummy. The seasoning on those fries!! yum.
