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

I love Dave's Hot Chicken! Around my birthday, I was thrilled to notice there was a Dave's near my house. I'd been wanting to try this popular chain for a while now. I love Nashville fried chicken, and I usually go to Angry Chickz but was pleasantly surprised by Dave's! It might even be better than Angry Chickz, because it is perfectly spiced and fried to perfection. Overall, they're similar. But anyways, I'd totally recommend this place to anyone regardless of their age of taste buds. 

Business response:

Thanks, Kim! We’re so glad you finally got to try us and loved the perfectly spiced and fried chicken! It’s awesome to hear we might give Angry Chickz a run for their money. Hope you stop by again soon—birthday vibes or not!

We had high expectations for this place, but the lack of cleanliness was hard to overlook. I'd also suggest making the trash can opening larger to make it easier to dispose of items from the tray, as this seems to add to the mess. 

Business response:

Thanks for your feedback, Nichole. We’re sorry to hear the cleanliness didn’t meet expectations—it’s something we take seriously. Your suggestion about the trash cans is super helpful, and we’ll look into it. We hope you’ll give us another chance to provide a better experience!

The service and food were amazing. The first time I went there, I ordered to-go and got their sliders with fries, except I swapped the fries for coleslaw, while my husband got the sliders with fries. It was delicious! The second time, I ordered through their app. My husband got the same thing, and I ordered the tenders with fries. I should've swapped the fries for coleslaw, just because the tenders were spicy, and the coleslaw helped cool my mouth. Other than that, everything was delicious. The ambiance is nice, very spaciou... read more

Dave's Hot Chicken never disappoints! The staff is friendly and welcoming and the food is delicious! The chicken is cooked perfectly and never dry. The kale slaw is surprisingly delicious and the secret sauce is The Orange Cream slush is like the old school 50/50 bar, MMM! Not to mention they have an amazing rewards program and I received my whole combo for FREE today!
