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

Went through the drive thru, got a slider, a tender, some mac and cheese, and my wife (not a chicken eater) got some fries. Everything was really great, from the food to the service - I remember turning to my wife after ordering and going "They're so nice here!" lol. Chicken was super juicy, fresh, and flavorful; I can handle heat so I got the tender hot just to gauge it, and it's just the right amount of spice. Wife was shocked by how good the fries were, too. I think I definitely caught this place on a good day.

Big hype maybe... - Food is nothing that I can't get from a different establishment. It was good but not for the wait time. - ordered on drive thru at around 8pm on a thursday and was in lime for about 40 mins by the time we got our food. It seems like they were frying the chicken as you order. -staff seemed like they were a bit "over it", maybe because it was almost closing time. -Pricing is again, as expected as other exclusively chicken fast food businesses.

First of all - the food was on point and what I expect from Daves after visiting other locations. So Why three stars you might ask? The staff was pleasant but they were either understaffed when we visited or something because the place was filthy. Dining area was trashed and the restroom as well, we had to clean up our own table to sit and eat. Granted it was a Saturday after typical dinner hours so maybe it was a fluke. I will say the Food wait wasn't long at all. 

Business response:

Sorry to hear about your experience. We want to earn those extra stars. Help us improve at www.tellusdirect.com/DHC. Thank you.

This is my first time trying today. Took the whole family. The chicken was hot but not too bad. I love spicy food, so I got the REAPER, in which I had to sign a liability form. The chicken was good and juicy, and the pieces were big! I love how they put extra pickles in the box to help with the heat. Idk why; it's a pet peeve of mine when drinks don't come with the meal. WHY? It's already 12$. Makes no sense to me. The wait was a little long, but everything was FRESH. So, it was worth it. I will definitely return.

Thanks for the feedback Dwain!

First Dave's Chicken visit. Food is good, tasted like fried chicken dipped in chili. I'll go back, though it did take longer than I expected to get through the drive thru, considering they weren't busy. 

Business response:

Hi Ben, sorry about the long wait!
