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.

First time trying Dave's was at a San Diego location. Awesome to realize there was a location close to where I grew up so I gave them a try! Ordered a Dave's #2 and a Dave's #3, adding cheese to the sliders. The pricing here is a bit more expensive than the SD pricing. Lots of seating inside. Flavors are just the same as the one in SD!

Was served by Vanessa. Courteous, helpful, restaurant was very clean, and most importantly, the food was amazing. The sandwich and fries were well seasoned and I would not change a thing about it. I would recommend this restaurant and come back here.

So yummy!! I was craving a fried chicken sandwich and ordered takeout on a Tuesday afternoon. I ordered the special with 2 sliders (mild) and fries! The chicken was juicy and tender and the buns were soft and sweet! This definitely hit the spot. Mild was not too spicy at all, I might go for the medium next time. The fries were pretty standard. I think I prefer them crispier but either way I would come back for the sliders yay! Service at the counter was very friendly too :))
