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.

I stopped by Dave's Hot Chicken to pick up a takeout order and got the Dave's #2 for this particular visit.

Comfortable place and the food is always great. I wanted to give a huge shout out to Angela. She was very kind and had some of the best hustle and customer service I've seen.

This location is A MILLION times better than the pacific beach location from the food to the wait time. Emiliano was the one who took my order and even recommended stuff that was extremely tasty, the inside of the restaurant was decorated nicely and the ambiance was amazing! Will definitely be back
