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 JOURNEY After 6 months of running the pop-up with long lines, the team took the plunge and opene... read more

No doubt 5 stars. Sandwiches were incredible and the fries were seasoned well and crispy. Don't let the term "sliders" on the menu confuse you...these are pretty much full sized sandwiches. You really can't beat the prices for the quality.

With the recent opening, we have seen frequent lines out the door. We got lucky and there was a short line so we tried it for dinner. The service and wait were fine but a little disorganized set up for ordering and pick up and which register for cash vs cards. The chicken itself was tender, juicy and high quality. The coating is very crispy and it came out hot temp. The seasoning on the fries was beyond salty and I could not eat them. The medium sliced chicken wasn't spicy, just incredibly salty. The Cole slaw was ok, not to... read more

We've heard about DHC for years, and it's great to finally enjoy it in Toledo. With wonderfully trippy graffiti on the walls, an open seating area, and surprisingly friendly and happy staff, the vibes are legit - as is the food! We'll try mild next time, because everything above, while delicious, is too hot to enjoy more than a few bites. And if you're not familiar, this type of chicken's heat is cumulative. You think you're fine a few bites in, and then some point, you start to fear for your life. My only complaint is ar... read more

Excellent art, and some of the best overall ambiance I've experienced in a fast food or fast casual restaurant. That's a good reason to come back all by itself. I sat on a bench against the wall towards the back, and I felt like I was away from the bright lights and chaos of the main sitting area, somewhere that I could relax. Chicken was quite good. The first time I got it on Doordash and it was still good even after getting a bit colder on the ride over. Second time, I got it in person, and it was even better hot and cris... read more

So good! Wanted to try something new, their chicken is unique and delicious . The Cole slaw is also absolutely bomb, one of a kind. Fries are delicious. Mac n cheese reminds me of KFC- not bad, not great. Zero complaints here!

The food was good. The customer service was excellent. The ambiance was amazing. The staff was very friendly. A very nice greeter would go around and make sure everything was going well during my experience.

It was big news when I saw on Instagram that Dave's hot chicken opens their new location in Toledo. DHC is definitely my favorite chicken spot in LA. However this location wait time was much longer. I understand that it just opened so they are trying to settle in. I really that they are able to keep up with that quality to the ones on CA. I would prefer DHC over any other chicken place any day. The only point I want them to work on is their wait time because we waited over 30 mins outside til we got to order.

My first review in a while so yalla. When I first heard that Dave's Hot Chicken was opening a location in Toledo I was ecstatic. My family and I normally go to the location in Dearborn Heights, so the convenience of a Toledo location makes the experience of going to Dave's a whole lot easier. I ordered a #3--A slider and a tender, served with sliced bread, pickles, fries, and Dave's glorious and delicious sauce. The sauce is on point. The chicken is well seasoned and very crispy. The fries were well seasoned, and the pickl... read more
