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

When this place opened, I genuinely couldn't understand why the lines were ungodly long. Like... seriously, you'd think they were giving the food away (at one point, I believe they were). All in all, we went there when we knew it wouldn't be super busy. At the time, there were 5 cars (one at the window) and it took us a total of 25 minutes to get through the drive thru.. I'm assuming that 5 minutes per car is the average nowadays. Nonetheless, it's a good metric for folks to have if you see the line. Food - pretty good o... read more

Came here during the afternoon around 2 pm on a Saturday and it was absolutely packed! I didn't realize they had just recently opened maybe a month or so ago so everyone is trying them out right now. I had to wait inside for about 30-40 mins for my order. I ordered their number 2 combo: 2 sliders and fries (7/10) and I also got their blue slushy (5/10). The wait really wasn't worth it to me. The food was good, but I guess with the crowd I saw, I was expecting more flavor and it overall to taste a lot better than it did. May... read more

Great service and great food! Jaclyn (employee) was super on-point and not only made sure that I was happy with the food but also ensured everyone inside was as well. The music was also awesome to listen to while dining in. Lastly, I'm not sure of the names of the other ladies working today, but all of them were on point. Overall, A+ grading! Well done team, I'll be back for more.

Man a lot of yall about to be disappointed in this review but Daves Hot Chicken is so overrated. Not only does the line/order take forever but the customer service is awful. You know these kids hate their job. I been here twice,one through drive thru and the other time inside. The workers have a lot of attitude and asking for extra condiments seems like a big deal to them. I'm like my bad that one packet of honey isn't enough for my big back activities. I ordered the number 3, it came with one tender, one slider and fries... read more
