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.

Excited to have a Dave's closer to home. Now we don't have to drive to Mira Mesa or El Cajon to satisfy our cravings. We ordered the Dave's #2: 2 Sliders w/ Fries. It was good, per usual, but the fries portion seemed less than normal.
Fun exterior and nice employees (though yelling welcome from the hidden kitchen seems unnecessary). That went out with Coldstone. Food is really "meh." I'd heard so much about Daves, so was excited. The chicken is very moist, but not impressive. Won't be back, but just cuz not my jam....others may like.
Fun decor inside and outside. The inside is pretty small but they do have seating outside. The place was pretty busy but the girl behind the counter Lila G did an amazing job. She was super nice and patient to every customer she has in front of her and she also was packing up food to be called out. I had the #4 1 Slider with Fries. For being busy they did a good job in getting the food out quickly. The fries and the chicken slide were good. I liked that the bread didn't break because the chicken was so big.
Ordered online made it so much easier during what seemed to be a Sunday lunch rush when we came to pick up our food. Once I ordered it said it would take 20 minutes, and it was right on time. I had Dave's long long ago and picked it up in PB, so I'm so glad they have a location here. Forgot how good it was! I went with the slider and fries. Can't go wrong with that for only $10. The only thing is I wish the sauce cup was filled the whole way! Seemed it was only filled 2/3 of the way. Need more sauce for my fries. I like to d... read more
I loved the "not" chicken cauliflower option. It was hot and crunchy and so delicious! The fries were seasoned so well and crispy. My daughter loved the chicken. Our food came out in a very reasonable time. But what I was most amazed by was how friendly and lovely each staff member was! This was the best fast food experience I've had in awhile. Way to go Dave's, welcome to Mission Valley!
The service was just as amazing as the food! The place was full and yet our order took no longer than 5 minutes! If you haven't came here, I highly recommend coming!
We went last night and honestly was so impressed customer service was on point im so happy this location opened its closer to our house the person who greeted us was Devin shout out to the whole team you guys are doing amazing will be returning for sure. Food was delicious as always.
10/10!!! Immediately greeted at the door and employee complimented my tattoo and started talking about his and also gave stickers out. Quick and easy to order. Food was out in 5 minutes. I got one tender and one slider, mild, taste was amazing. My friend got one slider and hers took longer for some reason but the wait was okay. Quite hectic because of first day open but energy was there. Nice art all around but not much room to stand and wait for food. Food tasted amazing and an employee came up to ask if everything was okay... read more
