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

best fried chicken in maryland great service friendly people and great spice to be honest the situation is very complicated for everyone but as longest you put ur mind into it u straight yk
Delicious food and great service! Daniel greeted us with the warmest smile and service was fast/efficient. Never misses
I have been wanting to try them since i saw my coworker ate them a few days ago. Now my whole fambam went here tonight and it was amazing. First of all they don't mess around with their spices, I chose the HOT version instead of the extra hot or reaper. I once heard someone said that you can't get the spiciest one on the menu on your first try. You gotta ease up to it. Second their prices are affordable. Third i like how the whole restaurant is decorated very colorful. It was busy when we came so many people eating and enj... read more

Love the strategy—easing up to the spice is the way to go! Glad you and the whole fambam had an amazing time. Appreciate the detailed review, and hope to see you back for more soon!
We ordered the 2 tender meal (medium) with an extra tender (mild). When you look at the menu, it may seem a bit expensive for a meal, but the tenders are big! The medium flavor did have more kick than the mild, but it was manageable and not mouth watering spicy. The chicken is well seasoned on the outside, but the seasoning is more dry and peppery, while the inside is more white and juicy. The service was pretty quick and they do give you a buzzer for when your food is ready. They have some frozen slushee drinks that you c... read more

Thanks for the detailed review, Carmen! We’re glad you enjoyed the juicy chicken and found the spice levels manageable. It’s great to hear the service was quick and you liked the portion sizes. We appreciate your feedback on the ranch dressing—something we’ll keep in mind. Hope to see you back for more tenders and slushies soon!
Dave's Hot Chicken Summary: new hot chicken spot (these seem to be popping up all over the Columbia area) in the Columbia Crossing shopping center. It offers a fast-food style dining experience with a straightforward menu of fried hot chicken options and sides. Columbia residents will be able to tell you that the area has had a bit of an influx of hot chicken dining spots in the last couple of years (which I'm not opposed to). They all start to feel pretty similar, but I was pleasantly surprised with Dave's Hot Chicken. ... read more

Thanks for the thoughtful review! We're glad you enjoyed the flavor of the chicken, the spice accuracy, and the well-paired sides like the crispy fries and kale slaw. It’s great to hear you were pleasantly surprised and found us to be a solid spot. We hope to welcome you back for another tasty visit soon!
delicious chicken, intense spice level! definitely worth the price & drive to Columbia.
Very great service and amazing food. Foo came out fast with great quality. Very clean store also.
Whoa! Freaking awesome chicken. Absolutely delicious. I love Hangry Joe's and I think this was slightly better. It's hard to say which I like better. But it was damn good chicken.
Business response:
Thanks, Darrius! We’re thrilled you found the chicken so awesome—it’s great to be compared to another favorite of yours. We hope to keep impressing you and look forward to your next visit!
The sliders are huge! One meal can feed two people. The medium and hot were good levels for me. Really liked the fries, the sauce, the pickles, and the slaw in the slider with the delicious bun. Can't wait to go back!
