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.

After recently becoming a Tampa Local, I've heard a lot of recommendations for Dave's Hot Chicken. While I know it is a chain, this was my first time being able to try it. Overall, the chicken is pretty good! I ordered the tender and slider combo at the Hot Spice level. The crispy chicken and spice tasted delicious. One of the workers recommended putting honey in the Dave's sauce which tasted awesome! The fries were generic crinkle cut with some spicy seasoning added on. As a PSA, while fast food, it does take some time ... read more

Took my boys here on a whim and it was delicious. Perfectly cooked and seasoned. Loved the dry rub on the chicken. We will be back!

The food was amazing but the service was exceptional. The chicken was hot and fresh and our toddler destroyed the mac n cheese. Debby came to our table with stickers and suggested us to mix honey & daves sauce and it was AMAZING. Thanks for being so kind to our toddler, Debby! Will definitely come back when we are in the area.

Every time my husband and I visit Tampa, Dave's is our favorite place to stop by. We look forward to driving from Miami just for chicken. Luckily they will be opening a Miami branch soon. This location has some of the kindest staff and such a fun atmosphere. The chicken is always crispy and perfectly seasoned. I like to get Mac and cheese as a side and my husband likes the classic fries. You have the choice to get tenders, sandwich, or a combination of both.
