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

Not sure if it's just this branch of Dave's, but the chicken was really boring. I ordered medium level spicy and even a toddler could handle it given how weak it was. The chicken was also covered in what looked to be a lot of spices, but it sorely lacked flavor and seasoning- I had to eat the fries to get salt. On the plus side, the chicken was cooked well and not dry.

Decided to try the famous Dave's hot chicken & left being completely unsatisfied. Service was fast & good. Employees were nice and answered any and all questions I had. The food left me wanting more, really bland chicken that seemed to be covered in paprika. Fries & Mac and cheese were nothing out of this world. The place is surprisingly big for a fast food chain and the food comes out super fast. Hard to say id give this another try. Don't understand what the hype is all about.

This place sucks. do not waste ur money. I spent 17 freaking dollars on 2 tenders what a rip off. Seasoning is odd. mac and cheese is also bad it was very watery lowkey tastes like chicken soup. I took 2 bites of that nasty chicken and it went right in the trash where it belongs. hope this helps

Service was horrible. It took me 15 minutes to place order and pay then they push you to the side and it takes over an hour to get food. Food was just ok. It should never take over an hour for food that is basically fast food.
