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

Not a fine dining establishment by any stretch, and it's always insanely busy. That being said, the food is worth the hype, fries are just overseasoned. Music is too loud, and combined with the industrial acoustics reflecting off concrete and the sheer amount of people in here, you can't hear anyone else you went with. But I'll be back for the chicken
Awesome food here. Ordered the regular, Nashville style, and also took the reaper challenge of which required a release form to be filled out. Flavors were great, Dave's sauce is no joke. Fries were seasoned a bit too much, but still good. Would def and will def go again.

Ordered the sliders (hot and extra hot), took a bite, was disappointed for a sec but smiled the second that heat crept up on me. I really like this spice blend they use, having lived in Louisiana. Also ordered the 10-piece bites (no heat), and they were delicious. The parking lot was packed, especially with the coffee shop next door, so the drive thru was much appreciated.

We were curious after passing by this restaurant several times. The food is good overall. I ordered fried cauliflower and the rest of the family ordered the chicken. In total we spent around $80-$90 between meals and drinks. The portions are huge and in many instances can possibly be shared. The slider, much to my surprise, was enough for a meal. The star of the show was the kale salad. It was fantastic. We also ordered shakes. They were not good and pricey for the quality. You will find far better at Shake Shack or Abbots d... read more

This was our first and most likely our last visit to Dave's HC...So the place has a fair amount of parking although they could use a sign on Jefferson road pointing to the side street entrance, we missed the turn the first time and had to back track and uturn our way back...The building has very cool spray painted walls that looked like they were tagged by a graffity artist and very tall ceilings also spray painted to look like the universe or outter space...Next, onto the menu...Well our first impression was that they want ... read more

Thanks for joining us on opening day, Stan! Glad you braved the heat with the #1—hope to see you again for another flavor adventure!
I've heard of this place on TikTok and there sadly wasn't one in Rochester then I saw that they were opening one in Rochester so obviously I had to come and check it out and let me tell you best food I've had in a while and the place was super clean and cool on the inside staff was really nice as well would definitely come again!
Finally got to check out the new Dave's Hot Chicken location in Henrietta. We ordered Dave's #1- 2 Tenders w/fries meal with medium hotness. We also got a side of honey to add to the tenders. The tenders were super crispy and flavorful. They were a little too spicy for me- but I'll get the mild tenders next time. We went through the drive- thru- service was fast. The meals were $13/each. Not too pricey. I will def be back. Next time you're in the area- def check em out!
Business response:
Appreciate you checking out the new spot, Tiffanie! Medium can definitely bring the heat, but Mild should be a better fit next time. Solid move adding honey—hope to see you back soon!
Come here all the time and always get great food and the staff is always nice and greet you with a smile. Highly recommend
