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.

Nathan made this a 5 star experience. I've been ordering here for a while and he's always been attentive and professional. He's on top of his work and very proper with his speech. His customer service is excellent and I appreciate that he keeps his composure and excellence even under pressure. He's a fine gentleman and I only hope the best for him.
Our first time trying Dave's Hot Chicken and it was delicious! We will definitely be coming back. The staff were all pleasant and friendly.
The chicken in the sandwich was served hot and fresh, which immediately won me over. Service was fine, pretty standard. The wall and ceiling design is pretty cool tho, love the graffiti look. I will warn people that "no spice" means no seasoning whatsoever, no smoky flavor, nothing even if it's not spicy, just completely plain. "Mild" has seasonings, but no spice whatsoever so I was kinda disappointed, but maybe I'm just used to Asian standard of spice levels.
Came here late night the service was good Julius kindly took our order when we dined in and the food was hot and tasted as good as usual
Dave's Hot Chicken is absolutely incredible! The chicken is always juicy, perfectly crispy, and packed with bold, flavorful spice. The heat levels offer something for everyone. The sides complement the meal perfectly, and the service is fast and friendly. A must-try spot for hot chicken lovers--you won't be disappointed! And Julius was great
Julius is the MVP at Dave's Hot Chicken! I stopped by Dave's Hot Chicken and had one of the best customer service experiences I've ever had, all thanks to Julius. From the moment I walked in, he greeted me with genuine energy and made sure I felt welcomed. He walked me through the spice levels, made a killer recommendation, and had me laughing the whole time. The food was (literally and figuratively). Perfectly crispy tenders, juicy on the inside, with that addictive heat and flavor combo that keeps you coming back. The s... read more
Julius is solid at Dave's -- he knows the menu well, moves fast under pressure, and keeps a cool head even during the lunch rush. He's especially good on register and packing orders, but can also step in on the fryer or expo when needed. Customers like him, and he's reliable. If he tightens up a bit on consistency and checks his work more often during peak hours, he could be one of the top guys there. Overall, dependable and improving.
Dave's Hot Chicken in Cathedral City is next-level delicious--but what really makes this place stand out is the incredible staff, especially Julius. From the moment I walked in, Julius greeted me with genuine warmth and high energy. He made sure I understood the menu, gave great recommendations (pro tip: go bold with the "Hot" level if you can handle it), and even checked in after I got my food to make sure everything was perfect. That kind of service is rare--and it made the whole experience even better. Now, the food? Un... read more
