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.

The best location for this chain in the area. The staff are amiable and fast. I visit at least a couple of times a week, and they repeatedly fry perfectly. Their fries and chicken are always perfectly crisp

Dave's Hot Chicken Medford, MA After that horrific patriots game, I ordered two hot sliders with mac & cheese. GrubHub was $24 and picking it up was $15, and I needed to get out of the house for a second before 7 hours of commercial free football starts so we had a nice little adventure. The fries aren't bad here, but I just prefer the mac and cheese, thats all. Every bite of this was absolutely delicious. The bun, the chicken, the crispiness of it, the spice level, the sauce, the mac and cheese, the cheesiness of it, the g... read more

This is the best Dave's location I have visited in the Boston area hands down. It may be because it's new and it was less busy, but the space was very clean, the chicken tasted crispier, and there is plenty of parking outside and seating inside. Easily the best Dave's Hot Chicken in the broader Boston area. I would definitely visit again and now prefer it to the Newton & Boston Commons location which have little to no parking or seating. Similar to other Dave's locations the chicken is entirely halal.

Had to run an errand at Wellington and went into Dave's on a whim. Was immediately turned off by the wait The staff seemed to be more reactive to mobile orders than the folks standing in line. I got the single slider meal and thought it was a bit pricey given the size of the sandwich. With that said, the sandwich was absolutely amazing! I'd have to say it is probably the best I've had! If they had customer service and speed like chick a filet, I'd be there all the time.

Really good and spicy chicken. Love the sauce and the fries are really good. Also like the bread that comes with the sliders.

One of the juiciest chicken tenders I've had in a long time. Fries were also good. Only one sauce (plus ketchup), but at least it's yummy. Thumbs up!

As a massive foodie, if you ever recommend a place where i can eat alot AND SAVE MONEY, i am in. Imagine 2 chicken sandwiches w fries all for just 15ish dollar? Comeon get serious with me . Food is halal so people of all faiths can come and eat which is nice for many muslims who have a very limited number of places in MA they can go eat at. Service so far been nice , and the restaurant is clean which is great for a busy fast food place.

Placing order was fast & easy. Nice clean place. Good location in Wellington circle In Medford. I got the hot, sandwiches we're called sliders kinda small with pickles & coleslaw on it. Hot was more spicy than most hot chicken sandwiches. But I might get very hot next time. I love the heat. No drink came with the meal, just fries at about$11.50. Guess the era of 5-6 $ value meals are over!

Consistently good chicken and sides. Well priced. Really happy that they came to the neighborhood. Would highly recommend for a fast casual spot.
