4 bc of service being slow (and it wasn't busy). We ordered TO-GO. I had the cauliflower bites with Mild sauce. Delicious. Daves sauce was the perfect addition. Hubby had the hot slider and then a extra hot tender (said he was glad he didn't go any hotter on the slider... and he can handle spicy). All orders come with Dave's sauce, pickles and a piece of bread (I can't have the bread so I can't tell tou how it was) I did think the grafitti look inside was neat.

Went in around 11:30 am, and as soon as I entered i was greeted with a really nice clean restaurant with appealing art on the walls and ceiling, I had to wait in line for a while as there were a fair amount of people there, but when i got in line service was great, fast, and simple just how i like it. I ordered two tenders with fries and added one additional tender. The wait afterward was a bit long, but i imagine its due to the popularity of the restaurant right now. When i got my tenders home and ate them they tasted real... read more

My husband loves anything spicy, and was excited to try Dave's Hot Chicken for lunch one day. I warned him that it would be busy during the lunch rush, but did not expect it to take as long as it did. He arrived and had about 10 customers ahead of him. It took about 15 minutes for him to even place his order and then another 45 minutes to receive his food. If this is considered "fast food", you're better off going to a sit down restaurant where you could be in and out within an hour. I get that they are fairly new, but they ... read more

The first Dave's Hot Chicken was opened in May 2017 by childhood friends Dave Kopushyan, Arman Oganeshyan, Tommy Rubenyan and Gary Rubenyan. They were inspired by the no frills approach of In N Out Burger as well as the growing demand for fried chicken in Los Angeles. Kopushyan - the chain's namesake - was a professional chef trained by restaurateur Thomas Keller at three-Michelin-star restaurant The French Laundry. Drawing from this experience, Kopushyan developed the chain's signature hot chicken recipe. The four friends s... read more

So, I heard this place was pretty busy so I figured I'd check it out for myself. I went today, Thursday afternoon and there was still a line winding all the way to the door. I spent about ten to fifteen minutes in line before I was up to order. Staff was friendly and very busy. I ordered the #3 which is a tender and a slider. I did this so I could judge the chicken on its own and in the sandwich. For the slider I ordered "Hot" and for the tender, "Reaper". They literally have you sign a waiver for the Reaper. I waited... read more

Expect long lines for this grand opening. It took us about an hour before we even placed our order but it's to be expected when something is new to the area. The dining area was clean & the employees did their best in trying to get the line to run smoothly. I've never been to Dave's Hot Chicken and let me tell you, I wasn't disappointed. I love that you're able to choose how spicy you want your chicken. I've never had kale slaw before but that with some Dave's sauce makes a very tasty chicken slider. I will definitely be b... read more

Even though the line was long for their opening weekend; they do have some great food. I really enjoyed their sliders and tenders. Dave's sauce is the BOMB! The view of the place gives 80's vibes with the graffiti and the music was soft played in the background. I recommend this to anyone who wants to try.

Waited in line for 2 hours on opening day for Dave's Hot Chicken. The hype was definitely real. Obviously, this is still fast food, so grain of salt, but I was really impressed. The place was literally staffed by all teenagers. I didn't see an actual adult in the 2 hours I was there. These kids did an excellent job maintaining order and getting through the massive line effectively, props for sure. I can't imagine the sheer amount of chicken they went through today. I got the #3, one tender and the sandwich. I order it "ho... read more
