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.

Good but I guess I was expecting more... We went here on a Sunday and it wasn't busy so we got our food quickly. The presentation is nice and they have crinkle cut fries!! My favorite!! We both got medium spice for our heat level and to be honest, there was no heat and I love heat!! Next time we will try a hotter sauce. The dry rub is a little off putting, I was expecting more sauce. We will be back, just not going out of our way...
Normally one of my favorite chicken spots and I usually don't write a review but on 08/28 I ordered two sliders and Fry's and received the wrong flavor, when I went back to tell the cashier she told me that's what I told her and when I showed her the ticket she doubled down and said she accidentally put that but she remembered my order (she didn't it was wrong and I even had proof.) I just decided to eat it because she seemed super annoyed and I will be back but that was ridiculous.
Dave's Hot Chicken was INCREDIBLE! This is the best hot chicken I have ever had in my life. My bf and I went to Dave's Hot Chicken on a week night and the drive thru line was long so we chose to order in. Once inside the restaurant you are greeted by an array of colors and plenty of indoor seating. I was surprised to find that it was not nearly as busy inside and we got are food much faster. We each ordered a chicken sandwich with fries. The fries were krinkle cut which are not my favorite but they were nicely seasoned. You ... read more
Love good service, good price, great location.very sweet cashier miss Shavon was polite and explain everything clearly..I 100% recommend.
My husband and I were excited to try this place and compare it to other fast food, chicken, and it was just OK. We went through the drive-through and the card in front of us took probably 5 to 10 minutes to get their food, but they had ours ready when we pulled up. My favorite part of the meal was the juicy chicken, but my husband and I found the medium to have almost no spice, I liked the slightly crispy fries but the Dave sauce is primarily mayo and that's really all you taste. You might be better off getting your chicken ... read more
It's a fast casual restaurant, so take this review with that understanding. They are a little more expensive than Nashville Coop, and a little higher quality in my opinion. I still plan on going to Nashville Coop as they are closer to my house in Merriam Park, and again, cheaper, but if I'm hungry and near Dave's, yep I'll go there over driving to Nashville. I think Dave's chicken is a little more juicy and I like the toppings on the sliders. Great combo!
I ordered Dave's hot chicken through DoorDash and the food came out absolutely hot and delicious. I ordered mild slider and a medium tender, and they were both delicious. My partner ordered a medium slider and a the hot tender was absolutely tasty with a kick. What sold me is that I ate the rest of my medium chicken tender later at room temperature and it tasted even better! Dave's Hot Chicken has lives up to its hype!!!
Ordering is counter service and they have buzzers for when the food is ready. This is an interesting new chicken option. The fries were really good. They were crispy and the seasoning is so enjoyable. The chicken had a really coarse dry rub. The slider with the slaw was a really good combo. The the pickles are nice and crisp. The restaurant looked small from the outside but has plenty of seating with 1/2 booths, tables, stools at the window and a small patio. I wish they had easily accessible ketchup and more Dave's sauce. T... read more
If you love spiced fried chicken, you gotta go here!! The chicken is always so juicy, crunchy, and super seasoned! It just doesn't compare to other tender spots. I always order the xtra-hot and it really kicks ya! They also have a heat scale if you can't handle spice which is super cool! You def have to order the mac & cheese too! It's so creamy & pairs so well with the meal. You can also add cheese on the sliders! So yummy!! :) The service was great even if they make some mistakes. They are usually super sweet about it. ... read more
